 Obit:  Mark Fuhrman, retired LAPD detective who was smeared on the stand during the O.J. Simpson trial and later turned to writing bestselling books, died on May 12.  No cause of death was given.

He was 74 years old, having been born on February 2, 1952.

Snip:

Fuhrman retired from the Los Angeles Police Department after Simpson’s 1995 acquittal. He subsequently moved to Idaho with his wife Caroline and their young daughter and son and set up a 20-acre (eight-hectare) farm, raising chickens, goats, sheep and llamas.

In 1996, Fuhrman was charged with perjury and pleaded no contest. He later became a TV and radio commentator and wrote the book “Murder in Brentwood” about the killings.
