Police Find No Evidence of O.J. Simpson Murder Confession on Seized Thumb Drives

Claims by O.J. Simpson's former bodyguard about a recorded confession were debunked after police examined the drives and found no relevant evidence.

  • Iroc Avelli, former bodyguard to O.J. Simpson, claimed to possess a recording of Simpson confessing to the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.
  • The alleged confession was said to be stored on a thumb drive seized by Minnesota police during Avelli's unrelated 2022 arrest.
  • Authorities in Bloomington, Minnesota, examined the drives earlier this year but found no evidence of a confession or any other relevant material.
  • The LAPD had alerted Bloomington police to the potential existence of the recording after Simpson's death in April 2024 at the age of 76.
  • Simpson, acquitted in the 1995 criminal trial, was found liable in a 1997 civil suit and remained a polarizing figure until his death.
