Buried Knife Found at O.J.'s Estate

A construction worker found a knife buried on the perimeter of the former O.J. Simpson estate ... and it's currently being tested by the LAPD in a top secret investigation ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

The story is incredible. We're told a construction worker found the knife years ago -- we have heard several different stories, ranging from "several years ago" to 1998, when the house was demolished.

The weapon is a folding buck knife.

Our law enforcement sources say the construction worker took the knife to the street, where he saw an LAPD cop. He told the officer where he found the knife and the cop took it.

Turns out the cop -- who worked in the traffic division -- was off duty at the time, working security for a movie shoot at a house across the street on Rockingham. Our sources say the officer took the knife home and kept it ... kept it for years.

In late January of this year, after the cop retired from the LAPD, he contacted a friend who worked in LAPD's Robbery Homicide Division (RHD). The cop told the friend about the knife and said he was getting it framed to put on his wall. He wanted his friend to get the DR (Departmental Record) number for the Nicole Brown Simpson/Ronald Goldman murder case, which he planned on engraving in the frame.

Can that cop be charged with obstruction of an official investigation?

Ridiculous. How tainted that thing must be now after 20 plus years. Why bother? He can’t be tried again and he’s in jail anyway.

It’s not the right kind of knife according to forensic evidence. End of story.

If the knife won’t slit, they must acquit.

LA Police didn’t “thoroughly” search the property back in ‘95? Couldn’t afford a simple metal detector that every kid at the beach has??

What a bunch of incompetents

Now we know why the cop was in the traffic division.

What investigation. By 1998 Simpson had already been acquitted.

It’s still an unsolved murder.

They didn’t really want to convict him.

Cops aren’t supposed to think anything other than being officers of the court. The court is the one who is supposed to do the thinking.
