O.J. SIMPSON’s furious ex-girlfriend is blaming him for her drug bust on charges of stealing painkillers –“O.J. ruined my life,” CHRISTIE PRODY, 37, seethed to a pal.
Prody, who lived with Simpson off and on for 13 years, had been working as a nurse’s aide in Moorhead, Minn., and was recently hired by a woman to take care of her husband in their home.
A closed-circuit television camera allegedly caught her stealing oxycodone, lorazepam and morphine pills from a bedside table.
“The video camera showed her putting pills in her pocket and popping a handful in her mouth,” an insider told The ENQUIRER.
What’s more, the couple told police that shortly after Prody began working for them, 300 oxycodone pills went missing.
O.J.’s ex-squeeze was charged with stealing narcotics and jailed April 9, but was bailed out after three days.
Prody blames her stormy relationship with O.J. for her drug problems, telling her friend: “O.J. turned me into an alcoholic and a drug addict. O.J. kept putting me down and rejecting me, and I turned to booze and drugs.”
After Simpson went to prison in 2008 on charges including theft and assault, Prody returned to her hometown near Fargo, N.D., and started a new life as a nursing assistant.
But her demons resurfaced and she was caught red-handed stealing drugs.
Prody endured vicious fights with Simpson and frequently ran off to binge on drugs and booze.
After one fight in May 2008, Prody was seriously injured in a Miami car accident. She soon became a painkiller junkie.
“Both legs were broken,” a close friend told The ENQUIRER. “She’s had a lot of pain since then and has been addicted to painkillers. It’s a shame.”
But O.J. denies any responsibility for Prody’s woes.
When he learned of his ex-girlfriend’s bust, he told a source: “She always blamed me for EVERYTHING. What can I do?”
