Kurt Russell's Close Encounters: From O.J. Simpson's Chase to Ted Bundy's Escape
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, siblings Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson shared that their stepfather, Kurt Russell, had been present at O.J. Simpson's infamous car chase, having left a friend's house to go to Simpson's residence just to see what was happening. They also mentioned Russell's encounters with other criminals, including Ted Bundy and Charles Manson's gang, though they admitted these stories should be taken with a grain of salt. The car chase occurred in 1994, following the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, and ultimately led to Simpson's acquittal on criminal charges but a finding of liability in a civil suit.
