Mark Fuhrman, the former LAPD detective who found a bloody glove used as evidence in the nationally-televised O.J. Simpson trial— but was then discredited for lying about previously using racial slurs — is dead at 74.

On Tuesday, May 12, Fuhrman died in Idaho, the Kootenai County Coroner’s Office confirmed, per Deadline, People, and many other publications. He died following a battle with an aggressive form of throat cancer, TMZ reported. Reportedly, Fuhrman had been hospitalized for a week leading to his death.
