The fashion entrepreneur, speaking to David Letterman, divulged key information about what went on in her house during the trial, where her mother was convinced that her friend had been murdered, and her father, Robert Kardashian, was part of the legal team defending Simpson against the charges.

In a conversation with David Letterman, Kim Kardashian was open about recalling the time in her life. She was 14 years old during the trial’s proceedings and had seen her mother confront Simpson when the family received a phone call from jail.

“It was dinnertime and we were all sitting down, and I answered the phone and it was a call from jail, and it was OJ, and I handed my mum the phone ’cause he wanted to speak to her, and I just remember them getting into it.”

The conversation further opened up about what Kardashian and her siblings had to face at home, with the family so cleanly split in the middle. She said:

“So we didn’t really know what to believe or whose side to take as kids, ’cause we didn’t want to hurt one of our parents’ feelings.”

The situation that Kim Kardashian described only got worse when they (her and her siblings) were allegedly pulled out of school on the day of the verdict by her father, which was a surprise to their mother, whom they refused to make eye contact with.

Kris Jenner was firmly on the side that considered that O.J. Simpson was guilty, owing to the fact that she thought Simpson was responsible for the death of her friend, Nicole Brown Simpson. Kim Kardashian, speaking about her mother’s state of mind at the time of the ordeal, revealed:

“My mum was extremely vocal on her feelings. She believed that her friend was murdered by him and that was really traumatizing for her.”

The trial would go on to acquit O.J Simpson which would cause a widespread volatile reaction amongst the American populace, who had named the trial ‘The Trial of the Century“, but the defense team had done their work, and was filled with such great lawyers, that it was dubbed the “Dream Team”.
