The former football star was accused of killing his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman in 1995.
Cops claim they had reason to believe a thumb drive they have confiscated has a recording of Simpson confessing to the crime, according to a search warrant obtained by TMZ.
These recordings were reportedly taken from Simpson’s former bodyguard Iroc Avelli, as part of an investigation into a separate case.
Avelli was arrested in March 2022 and police conducted a search to collect evidence, and they took a green backpack with live ammunition and other items, according to TMZ.
Bloomington PD in Minnesota reportedly said they received a call two months after Simpson died, in April 2024, from an LAPD detective who asked to meet the former bodyguard.
LA cops reportedly believe a thumb drive in the green backpack, taken in 2022, had Simpson’s confession recorded.
Minnesota police obtained another court order in June, to access the contents of the drive, according to TMZ.
The outlet also reported that the contents of the drive are still pending.
These thumb drives have reportedly become the source of an ongoing legal battle as Avelli and his lawyer have sued Minnesota cops to retrieve his seized items.
This motion was denied by a judge in July, but the contents of the drive is still publically not known.
This shocking twist has emerged nearly 30 years after the incident that astonished the world.
