An EXCERPT:
"Nicole recorded several violent beatings in her haunting diary – and these chilling entries cover the years from 1978 until the couple’s divorce in 1992. Dominique called the tragic log the “hit list.”
“I didn’t know about any of these beatings when they were going on,” an outraged Dominique told The ENQUIRER.
“Unfortunately, I didn’t find out about them until after her death. Since then, people who were friends with O.J. and Nicole have told me all about the hellish abuse she endured at the hands of O.J.”
note: Dominique was a younger sister of Nicole Brown

Missy here!
We all know that batterers and the battered can be in denial, or keep the facts from their friends and families. Throughout the whole O.J. Simpson trial, I kept thinking, "Why didn't the friends and family of Nicole's do more to get them help, or to get her away from him, how could they let this go on?"
I do know some reasons why. Here is my list.
1) They were not true friends to Nicole.
2) They were not true friends to O.J.
3) They were friends of O.J.s and not Nicole's, because his fame and money benefitted them more.
4) They were ignorant about battering and abuse in general or hoped or thought it wasn't as bad as she said.
5) They themselves had the experience of being in bad relationships or situations in which abuse occurred and they too took it or gave it out.
6) They believed you should stay out of other people's relationships as a policy, even when there is evidence of abuse. The, "Who really knows what happens between two people," philosophy.
7) They feared that if they took a side, they would loose both friendships. (Having talked to someone who worked at a Domestic Abuse Hotline, apparently this does happen. An abused person and/or their abuser can turn on the person who helped them.)
P.S. From my own research notes. Nicole was O.J. Simpson's mistress before she was his wife. He was still married when they met, she was a 17? - 19 year old waitress who was brought into his lifestyle and he an older married and rich man. She was divorced from him and supported by him before she started thinking about some way to make money, to invest in a franchise like Starbuck for instance, or to be an Interior Designer.
