O.J. Simpson's Body to be Cremated, Brain Not Donated for CTE Research

Despite requests from medical centers, the family of the late NFL star O.J. Simpson has firmly declined to donate his brain for CTE research following his cremation.

O.J. Simpson, who passed away from prostate cancer at 76, will be cremated with no plans to donate his brain for scientific study.
Malcolm LaVergne, the executor of Simpson's estate, confirmed the family's decision against brain donation for CTE research.
CTE, a brain disorder linked to repeated head injuries, has been a topic of interest due to Simpson's history in the NFL.
The decision has sparked discussions about the potential insights into CTE that could have been gained from studying Simpson's brain.
Simpson's death marks the end of a controversial life, including a famous acquittal in the murder of his ex-wife and her friend.
