As O.J.'s murder trial for
the savage slayings of Nicole and Ron began, The ENQUIRER tracked Gaby to a small house in Tel Aviv. Tragically, ENQUIRER reporters found he'd been accidentally shot in the head by a pal in 1989 — left wheelchair-bound and unable to speak.

Her former mother-in-law, Clara, and Marcia's ex-husband Gaby opened their treasured photo album for the first time to reveal an intimate portrait of Marcia in her youth. That included this photo of Marcia and Gaby during an August 1978 vacation to Mexico. Their companion is a girlfriend of Gaby's friend Bruce Roman — the same man who would accidentally shoot him 11 years later while showing off a new gun.

Shockingly, Gaby and Clara revealed Marcia had made allegations of being a battered wife during the couple's volatile marriage. These photos show Marcia understood all too well how
Nicole could have stayed close to her
brutal ex-husband even after her divorce from Simpson. This smiling pic is from a 1977 visit to Disneyland, with Marcia covering up another secret!

Clara told The ENQUIRER that Marcia's straw hat in the happy photo was also covering up that she was wearing a wig! "Her hair was becoming baby-thin," recalled Clara, "and she was unhappy, so she began wearing a wig to hide it."

Another photo — also taken during the 1977 trip to Disneyland — shows the bubbly bride chatting with Clara. Marcia's mother-in-law was a dressmaker who created the wedding gown for the couple's nuptials. Clara also gave Marcia the diamond for the engagement ring that she's wearing on her right hand.

This photo taken in a Los Angeles backgammon club shows Marcia's original nose. "Gaby put Marcia through law school, and also paid to have her nose fixed around 1978," said Clara. "The surgery cost him a lot of money." The lovebirds regularly visited backgammon venues where Gaby raked in big bucks playing against stars including
John Wayne,
Lucille Ball — and even O.J. Simpson!

Daring young Marcia even bared her breasts for this photo taken in September 1979 at a topless beach in St. Tropez, France. "Gaby treated her to a two-week tour of Europe when she finished law school," recalled Clara. "She was shy at first about taking off her top in St. Tropez. But by the time the picture was taken, she told me, she felt comfortable and hardly realized she was topless!"

Meanwhile, her ex-husband followed the news while left with only his memories. Said Clara during the trial: "When my son
watches Marcia on TV, tears well up in his eyes, and I know he is tortured inside. It breaks my heart!"
