Former LAPD detective Philip Vannatter of O.J. fame died at the age of 70. He suffered from cancer.

Kim Goldman, sister of Ronald Goldman, who developed a bond with Vannatter during the Simpson trial, said Vannatter enjoyed horseback riding. "He was trying to get some peace and quiet and rebuild his life," she said. "He was such a family man. It made me feel like he had put some things behind him and was embracing the last stages of his life and that it didn't completely break him down."

In 2008, Simpson was convicted in Las Vegas of criminal conspiracy, kidnapping, assault, robbery and using a deadly weapon.

"We got great pleasure seeing him incarcerated. But we didn't need that by then anyway," said Vannatter's wife, Rita.
