the bloody knife

Big story this morning. Big coincidence I’m thinking. Bigger bullshit says the wife. Could be. Knife could be a hoax. But I doubt it. And if I were LAPD, I’d really be looking at the duty logs for the searches at Rockingham to see if this retired cop was there.

With every fiber of my being I believe the OJ trial was thrown on purpose, caving in to mob pressure to avoid another Rodney King riot. Now that we’ve got “OJ the Movie”, and #blacklivesmatterbutonlywhenwecanbeatwhiteyupaboutit, perhaps it’s time to let some of the real evidence come to light?

Blood-stained knife found buried on OJ Simpson’s estate
[yeah ... my bet is it was found 18 years ago, or even 22]

A construction worker found a blood-stained knife buried on OJ Simpson’s property “years ago” — and gave it to an off-duty cop who kept it in his home before finally turning it over to police in January, a report says.

Law enforcement sources told TMZ that the blade is a folding buck knife, which is now being tested for hair and fingerprints after being handed over to the L.A.P.D.’s Robbery Homicide Division.

It will be tested for DNA and other biological evidence at the department’s Serology Unit next week, sources told the site.

Cops who saw the weapon said it appeared to have blood residue on it, but it’s extremely rusted and stained, so further testing is needed.

The construction worker who found the knife told police he stumbled upon it while Simpson’s home in Brentwood was being demolished, but he couldn’t remember the exact date, sources told TMZ.

After finding the blade, he took it to an LAPD officer standing across the street, according to TMZ.

But the cop was off-duty — and instead of turning the knife over to his higher-ups, sources said he kept it for years.

It was only when Officer Dufus contacted an active officer to get the case number to put on a plaque on the frame he was making for it for display that LAPD learned of it’s existance. And now the fur is flying.

OJ’s Rockingham estate was torn down in 1998 (18 years ago), and the murders occured in 1994 (22 years ago). Just because the cop who had this knife - assuming it’s the real murder weapon - just because he retired from Traffic Division, doesn’t mean he was in Traffic Division his entire career. And who knows who LAPD would grab when they needed to round up 50 officers to do a property search?

Kinda makes you wonder how many other cases have been sabotaged by stolen key pieces of evidence um, I mean harmless little tokens kept as mementos.

Final thoughts - it appears that the current LAPD is in contact with the construction worker. So the off duty officer must have recorded this contact information back then. Which means he was at least sort-of playing it straight at first. Wonder how long it took him to decide to keep the knife for himself? Maybe he met a mighty brick wall of “it’s over, we aren’t interested any more”; I haven’t ever heard of a single bit of effort by LAPD, post-OJ trial, to “find the real killers” just like OJ promised at the time. And since OJ was “innocent” ...

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
