O.J. Simpson Won't Have Public Memorial After Cremation, per Attorney

O.J. Simpson won't have a public memorial after his death on April 10 at the age of 76 from prostate cancer, his attorney said.

Malcolm LaVergne, who is in charge of Simpson's estate, told the Associated Press that the Pro Football Hall of Famer was cremated Wednesday.

"I am able to verify that O.J. Simpson was cremated today," LaVergne said. "Others were present, but I'm not disclosing who."

LaVergne went on to say that Simpson's children will be given his cremains to "to do with as they please," which is in accordance with Simpson's wishes.
