O.J. Simpson: Buried Knife found at O.J.’S estate
You have to read this story to believe it. Years ago when OJ’s house was being demolished a construction worker found a buried knife, flagged down an officer, and gave him the knife explaining it was found at the OJ house buried. The officer took the knife and kept it at his home. Once the officer retired he asked a fellow officer for a LAPD record number to engrave it and frame the knife. His fellow officer then informed superiors and they are now in possession of the knife preforming tests.
