OJ Simpson murder trial witness Kato Kaelin reveals Barbara Walters' shock reaction to not guilty verdict - days after NFL star's death aged 76
Kaelin, 65, found fast fame for his role as Simpson's houseguest amid the international publicity surrounding the murders, car chase and trial.
Speaking with People Monday - less than two weeks after Simpson's death at 76 from cancer- Kaelin said at the time the verdicts were read, he was sitting alongside Walters as they prepared for a segment for ABC's 20/20. Simpson expressed relief as the not guilty verdicts were read on October 3, 1995, while flanked by members of his legal 'Dream Team,' (L-R) F. Lee Bailey, Robert Kardashian and Johnnie Cochrane, all of whom have passed in the 29 years since the end of the trial Kaelin told People that in hindsight, he felt the fast fame and notoriety of his association with the Simpson case torpedoed his chances at a serious career in show business that he'd been seeking at the time.
