Simpson was tried for murder and acquitted in Los Angeles for the 1994 death of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman.
The Goldman family said Wednesday in a statement to The Associated Press that they've experienced a reprieve and calm while Simpson has been behind bars.
