Just Discovered: O.J. Simpson's Buried Knife Found At O.J.'S Estate

Yes folks you heard that right, the murder weapon of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman may have just been found. A retired police officer may have had it in his possession all along. He was going to frame it so he could hang it on his wall, and that leads to this story. 

 Los Angeles Police Department Capt. Andrew Neiman held a press conference on Friday in which he confirmed that a knife is currently being investigated. It is a folding Buck Knife, discovered by a construction worked on the estate. It is currently being tested by the LAPD in a top secret investigation, which could in affect reopen the O.J. murder case.

According to TMZ, the worker reportedly turned the weapon, a folding buck knife, over to a nearby off-duty LAPD officer, who was working as security for a movie shoot across the street.

But instead of turning the weapon into police investigators, the officer allegedly brought it home and kept it for years.

In January, the police officer, now retired, reportedly told his friend, an officer in the LAPD’s Robbery Home Division, about the knife and his plans to frame it for his wall. He then allegedly asked if the RHD officer could get the departmental record number for the 1994 Nicole Brown Simpson/Ronald Goldman murder case, which he wanted to engrave into the frame.

TMZ’s sources said the RHD officer was irate that his friend had kept the knife this long and informed his superiors, who commanded the retired officer to turn in the knife.

Another source with knowledge of the investigation told TMZ that police saw possible blood residue on the knife, though it’s hard to discern due to rust and stains.

O.J. was tried for the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman and found not guilty by a jury in 1995.

Since no one has been convicted to date, the case remains open. If the knife does connect O.J. to the murders, he can’t be tried again due to double-jeopardy laws.
