The former NFL player was married at the time but dated Nicole never-the-less, and within months they were reportedly living together.

“1st time he beat me up after Louis + Nanie Mary anniversary party. Started on the street corner of NYC 5th Ave at about 9 (pm),” the diary reads. “Threw me on the floor, hit me, kicked me. we went to the hotel where he continued to beat me for hours and I continued crawling for the door.”
Nicole alleged that one time, O.J. beat her up so severely that her sweater and socks were torn off her body, according to the Daily Mail.
“O.J. flipped out into a jealous rage and smashed her car up. On several occasions, O.J. also allegedly threw her against walls, leaving her blackened and bruised,” the news site stated.

“This documentary is not here to retell the famous trial, but to remember the woman who struggled with domestic violence and now tells her side of the story, in her words, for the first time,” said Henry Schleiff, the president of Investigation Discovery.
Nicole’s sister, Tanya Brown, said in the documentary, “Maybe she knew this was her destiny and maybe subconsciously she knew something was going to happen. Maybe that’s why she kept real detailed diary entries.”
