Caitlyn Jenner is now the subject of online trolling from X users after her recent X post about Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson's death revealed by his bereaved family.
Jenner is known for his close ties to Simpson because of his former wife, Kris Jenner, whose former husband was the accused's legal representative, Robert Kardashian, during the former athlete's murder trial in the 1990s.
The internet trolls were quick to react to Jenner's statement about Simpson's death, with it backfiring on her after her relief that the controversial athlete was announced dead earlier today.

Many users clapped back to Jenner, with her comment backfiring to her previous issue in 2015. One user asked, "Didn't you kill someone, too?" while showing a clip of a confused man.
Another user quoted Jenner's post, and it shared a 'rest in peace' message to the deceased people referred to when trolling the celebrity.
This pertains to the 2015 accident where Jenner rear-ended Kim Howe's car, sending her off to traffic, which resulted in a multi-car crash and Howe's death. Jenner is known for settling the case with Howe's family.

O.J. Simpson Dead at 76 Due to Cancer
All this fiasco about Caitlyn Jenner and her sentiments about Simpson followed the recent announcement of the former athlete, movie star, and alleged murder criminal, O.J. Simpson.
It was said that Simpson died last April 10, 2024, at the age of 76, surrounded by his family in his home. It was also revealed that he died due to prostate cancer and fought this for years.
Caitlyn Jenner and O.J. Simpson
The renowned celebrity now did not rise to fame because of her online persona and change of heart, but of his former life as an athlete, Bruce Jenner once won the 1976 Summer Olympics Gold Medal for the decathlon event.
In 2015, the renowned celebrity came out, also showing off her gender reassignment transition, with Siri calling out people who still refer to her as 'Bruce.'
For many years, there has been a significant following in O.J. Simpson's case, particularly as there are mixed perceptions behind the murder case he was acquitted of in 1995.
Documentaries and drama series were made that explored the facts and opinions about this case, among the most popular being Netflix's The People v. O.J. Simpson.
Jenner had massive ties to Simpson due to her former wife, but not much else.
