Attorney Kathy Love also was involved in a high-profile case while she worked for the New Mexico Public Defender Department. There have always been high profile cases involving celebrities. OJ Simpson's case was called "the trial of the century" in 1995. After his career ended he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but he was accused of murder in 1994. He went on trial for the murder his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman. Acquitted of these crimes, several years later he was found guilty of a number of felonies including armed robbery and kidnapping. For these crimes he received a 33-year sentence behind bars. Another National Football League player, Aaron Hernandez, was arrested in 2013 and charged with first-degree murder. He was accused of murdering Odin Lloyd, a semi-pro football player. He was convicted of this crime in 2015, and on top of this conviction he has recently been charged with an unrelated double-homicide. Lana Turner was one of Hollywood's biggest stars in 1958. In that year she too was involved in a murder trial. Her 14-year-old daughter was accused of stabbing Lana Turner's boyfriend, Johnny Stompanato, to death while the couple was fighting in their home. It was eventually ruled a justified homicide due to the teen claiming that the mobster was going to kill her mother. Many people thought that she was just covering for her mother, Lana Turner, who it was believed committed the act.
