There are no plans for a public memorial, the executor of O.J. Simpson's estate says. His remains will be given to his children, in accordance with his wishes.

O.J. Simpson was cremated this week at a mortuary in Las Vegas, and his family is still finalizing funeral plans, according to a representative for the family. There are currently no plans for a public memorial, Malcolm LaVergne, a longtime attorney for Simpson who was appointed executor of his estate, told the Associated Press this week. He told the outlet that Simpson’s ashes will be given to Simpson’s children “to do with as they please, according to the wishes of their father.

Simpson's death could open a window for the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman to collect the multimillion-dollar settlement they were awarded following the pair's slaying. Simpson, once a football superstar, was acquitted for the deaths of his ex-wife and her friend in a criminal court in 1995.
