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

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Oct 19

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.
