One of the most gripping moments of "O.J. Simpson: Made in America," a "30 for 30" project, came in the second installment. People were left horrified after seeing footage of ESPN host Roy Firestone asking Simpson in the early 1990s about allegations he abused then-wife Nicole Brown Simpson on New Year's Eve in 1988.

Simpson denied the allegations, but it was later learned there was abuse and Brown was left hospitalized after it.
