Needing money, the safekeeper of certain items of evidence which have been in hiding for nearly thirty years, wants to sell them.

They are items hidden by a very close friend of the killer.

If they were brought out at trial of the former A+ lister, he would have been convicted.

The very close friend passed on and left the items with the safekeeper.

O. J. Simpson

OJ Simpson Case: The Mystery Surrounding the Never-Found Murder Weapon

— — It’s been more than 21 years since O.J. Simpson’s ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, were found stabbed to death in front of her Los Angeles home on June 12, 1994.

To date, the murder weapon has never been found. But the Los Angeles Police Department said today that it’s conducting tests on a knife purportedly found at Simpson’s old property — the Rockingham estate in Brentwood — after they recovered it from a retired LAPD officer within the past month.

Based on a preliminary assessment, an official briefed on the investigation does not believe the knife is the murder weapon. Tests were still being conducted.

In 1994, video from ABC station WLS in Chicago captures L.A. detectives wrapping up their Chicago-based search for the weapon near the hotel Simpson stayed the morning after the murders.

“Three days of searching in an adjacent vacant lot failed to turn up a murder weapon,” WLS reported at the time, adding that sources said L.A. police were “turning to high-tech satellite technology to continue to search.”

“Those sources say the satellite is being positioned to focus on Chicago and L.A. and can detect metal objects on the ground from high above in space,” WLS reported.

An L.A. detective said at the time he thought the weapon was in Chicago, but wasn’t optimistic about finding it.

Chances are “pretty slim,” the detective said 10 days after the murder, adding: “it’s never over until it’s over.” – Source
