To spotlight the anniversary of one of the most infamous trials in U.S. history, Alcatraz East Crime Museum is opening a new temporary exhibit titled The Road to Ruin: O.J. Simpson. The exhibit will open October 3, 2025, and run through December 2025, featuring a variety of artifacts related to the trial.
The new temporary exhibit will feature information about the trial, as well as a tie worn by Simpson during the trial, pieces of china that belonged to Nicole Brown Simpson, and other related artifacts. While the trial began January 24, 1995, it was on October 3, 1995, that the jury delivered the not guilty verdict after deliberating for less than four hours. It’s estimated that 150 million people tuned in to see the verdict read live on television, and it was a case people had closely followed from the time the news originally broke.
The white Bronco from the infamous June 17, 1994, chase is on display at the museum and is one of the things visitors love to see.
