Could this be OJ’s confession?

-

Viewers watching OJ Simpson: The Lost Confession?, an interview which was originally filmed in 2006 but aired in the US recently, were left stunned. OJ SIMPSON (70) explains to interviewe­r Judith Regan how he “hypothetic­ally” got into a violent altercatio­n with Ron Goldman, the boyfriend of his late ex-wife, NICOLE BROWN SIMPSON. At one point he loses the “hypothetic­al” tone and explains in first person how he swung the knife that killed Nicole and Ron and even “admits” to having had an accomplice – which many conspiracy theorists believe to have been his then 24-year-old son, JASON (47). Damning as it may be, the interview doesn’t mean much for those keen to see the disgraced former football player behind bars. America’s double jeopardy law makes it impossible for a person to be prosecuted for the same crime twice – so even if new evidence was found, the state can’t try him again for the two murders.
