Unsealed O.J. Simpson Files Suggest 2nd Killer as Dershowitz Urges New Probe

Summary
Unsealed court documents and a New York Times report revived the 1994 O.J. Simpson murders case with claims that Joseph Ippolito, a now-dead mob-linked trafficker, knew how evidence was disposed of and may have handled the missing weapon.
Alan Dershowitz, a former Simpson defense lawyer, said the case should be reexamined from scratch, arguing the killings of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman may have involved a credible second person.
Sam Ippolito told the Times his brother came home the night of the murders with blood on his hands and a heavy bag later dumped on Doheny Drive, though he later recanted after seeking payment.
Charlie Ehrlich, a longtime friend of Ippolito and later Simpson associate, also said he believed there was 'a secondary guy,' while denying online speculation that he was involved.
Dr. Michael Baden, who reviewed autopsy findings for Simpson's defense, said there was no crime-scene, autopsy or scientific evidence showing more than one attacker; Simpson died in 2024 and Ippolito in 2006.
