O.J. Simpson’s death on Thursday sparked much debate as to whether or not he finally admitted to the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman. But according to sources around him during his final days, he said nothing about the incident whatsoever on his death bed.
Simpson’s death comes with mixed feelings about his life. Yes, he is remembered by football fans as one of the greatest running backs to ever touch a football. But unfortunately, the murder case of Brown Simpson and Goldman far outweighs that football legacy in the eyes of most.
The legendary running back was of course acquitted of all charges in the murder case. But it is widely speculated that the jury got it wrong, and that Simpson had indeed committed the murders.
Simpson later wrote the book ‘If I Did It: Confessions of the Killer’, where he proclaimed that he did not commit the murders, but if he had, he detailed how he would have done them. This obviously only added to his presumed guilt in the eyes of most, as it laid out how he may have committed the murders in detail.
Despite all of the evidence supporting Simpson as the killer of Brown Simpson and Goldman, O.J. reportedly took the secret about what really happened that day to the grave.
An unnamed source close to Simpson in his final days detailed to TMZ that there was no mention of any confession about the killings.
“Unless being thirsty and asking for water is a confession or wanting to watch the golf tournament. Nothing about the LA thing came up or was even thought about,” the source said.
Naturally, many interested in an answer to the situation had plenty to say about this revelation on social media.
Was anyone really expecting this man to confess?

Nah, he just wrote a book about it and called it fiction.

It’s ok. We all know he is a killer!

I was sorta waiting for something on this to be out. No confession. Like most, or everyone but nothing.
