Wow, quite the sterling chain of evidence there.

The knife was believed to have been recovered by a construction worker tearing down the house.
Here’s a concept: Call the demolition company and talk to the guy who “recovered” it. I suspect he doesn’t exist.
Hmmpf! Pointless speculation.

Does not matter you can place Vegas bets now that the knife will be used to keep OJ behind bars, will not make one shred of difference is connected to the crime of not.
We already have one circus called the republican primary, we don’t need to start another one.

This story needs follow up. Other outlets are reporting that the size of the knife found is inconsistent with the sort of large blade that was used to commit the murders. Its a small utility knife that would be of a type used by gardeners.
The knife found isn’t related to the murders. End of story.

Hmmm…so far the only people who have commented about the timing releasing a wave of movies and books are those who themselves profit by movies and books.
In other words, crap in a toilet is no big surprise.
I’ll believe the knife story is the real thing when my Nigerian inheritance shows up in my bank account.
Obama will stop at nothing to distract us from Jade Helm II: Martial Law Bugaloo!
Does the parole board utilize the Vegas odds in determining parole eligibility, or are you just flat out speculating?
Kudos to FX’s publicists.

Come on media—chase that hoax til yer tongues hang out.
I Already dealt with this “Unusual Timing” aspect…
Look at it this way… This LAPD/Simpson news is a distraction and keeps the following type of real news from staying in the public eye.
The following can also be found in my previous post here in the forum on Mar 4, 9:43 PM.
The following is a local story going down here in LA about the LAPD using what is known as the Stingray device (see wiki).

Civil Liberties Groups Voice Concerns Over Cell-Site Simulators
February 25, 2016
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Cellphones hold private information a long list of civil liberties groups worry is vulnerable to high-tech searches and seizure.
In the old days, police couldn’t go to every single person’s door searching every person’s home in order to find one bad guy and that’s similar to what may be happening here,” said Jessica Price of the ACLU of Southern California.
Price is talking about cell-site simulators, or IMSI-catchers.
The devices are about the size of a suitcase and can help police and track cellphones around them, including those of suspects. They work by sending out a signal stronger than those of cellphone companies.
Cellphones, even when not in use, are looking for a signal. If near a crime scene, the phone may think it’s pinging a carrier tower, but instead may be connecting to the device.
The ACLU likens it to the digital age colliding with the centuries old Fourth Amendment.
“It doesn’t just go after the bad guys,” Price said. “This device, which mimics a cellphone tower, enters, sends signals into your pockets, into your household, wherever your cellphone may be, to get information about you.”
Most local agency devices cannot eavesdrop on calls or texts, but a law enforcement source says the LAPD could be using even more sophisticated software that can intercept data and even pinpoint social media posts
CBS2 wanted to put those questions to [LAPD] Chief Charlie Beck who replied: “I can’t answer that.”
In fact, a long list of civil liberties groups say the LAPD has refused to turn over documents or flat-out ignored public records requests, even though others like the Los Angeles County Sheriff have turned over some information.
The news station asked Beck about that, who replied: “It’s not that we don’t want to, but we don’t think we’re legally required to.”
The reason being agencies sign agreements like one CBS2 obtained from Ventura County.
In it, the FBI bars deputies from disclosing information on the devices even in court hearings, saying that acknowledging the existence of the equipment would endanger the lives and safety of law enforcement.
With all the secrecy surrounding the use of these devices, that means that there is no oversight and without oversight, there is no accountability,” said cyber security expert and privacy activist Mike Katz-Lacabe.
He says new laws in California now require agencies to post their policies regarding when and how the devices are used although few have
Chief Beck again didn’t want to talk about it, saying “I’m not gonna discuss that.”
A new law in California now requires police to get a warrant to use the simulators.
But, privacy rights groups argue, with so much secrecy, it may not be possible to know if the law is being followed.
