O. J. Simpson murder case
Its invention is sometimes erroneously attributed to drug kingpin Pablo Escobar. It is commonly referenced in popular culture and pulp fiction, although there is no verifiable evidence of it having occurred in the United States and its purported usage by domestic drug dealers is likely an urban legend. During the O. J. Simpson murder case, defense lawyers claimed that hitmen hired by drug dealers gave Nicole Brown Simpson a Colombian necktie, but this was barred from testimony for not having supporting evidence.
