O.J. Simpson Saga Continues: LAPD Confirms It’s Looking Into a Knife Found on Star’s Property

While we’re all remembering life in the ’90s week by week as The People v. O.J. Simpson airs on TV, the twists and turns of the actual O.J. Simpson case continue to be truly stranger than fiction. As it turns out, even in 2016, we’re still not finished uncovering bizarre revelations.

The Los Angeles Police Department has officially confirmed to the Los Angeles Times, following a report by TMZ, that it is investigating a knife that was found on O.J.’s old Brentwood property years ago and then just kept as a souvenir by a retired police officer — because the LAPD literally cannot quit messing this up.

As TMZ first reported, the knife was found, buried, by a construction worker anywhere between “several years ago” and “1998.” (The Brentwood home where O.J. Simpson lived at the time of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman has since been demolished.) The worker who found the buck knife gave it to an off-duty officer who just … kept it. For fun.
