A Heisman Trophy that OJ Simpson won in 1968 has been recovered more than 20 years after it was stolen in a burglary at the University of Southern California, police said last night. The trophy and a Simpson jersey were stolen in a burglary at Heritage Hall, home to USC's athletic department, on July 28, 1994. At the time, Simpson was awaiting trial for the murder of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman, who were killed the previous month.

"The recovered Heisman is the duplicate that's given to the university of the winning player, not the one given to Simpson himself in 1968, police said."
"Simpson's own trophy was seized under a $33.5 million judgment after a civil court found him liable for the deaths of his ex-wife and Goldman."
