New O.J. Simpson theory emerges as FBI profiler says he was 'not alone'
A former FBI profiler has made bombshell claims about the brutal murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.
Nicole and Ron were found dead at her Los Angeles home on 13 June 1994.
The shocking crime took on a sensational turn, when Nicole’s ex-husband and NFL star Orenthal James Simpson, better known as O.J. Simpson, was then charged in relation to the murders.
After agreeing to turn himself in to the cops on 17 June, Simpson instead took off in a white Ford Bronco prompting a slow-speed police chase that was watched live by millions of people.

Following his eventual arrest, Simpson was involved in a highly publicised months-long trial, that ultimately ended in him being acquitted of both murders.
Despite being found not guilty at a criminal trial, in 1996, the families of Ron and Nicole filed a civil suit against Simpson where a jury found him liable for the deaths.
Simpson, who died in 2024 aged 76, has since been the focus of countless true crime documentaries, books, podcasts, and articles.
In a new interview, former FBI profiler Jim Clemente, who did not work on the murders of Nicole and Ron, has said he believes there is evidence that shows another person was involved.
Speaking on an episode of TZ Scandal with Tom Zenner, Clemente said injuries sustained on Ron’s body point at their being two perpetrators - one who launched the brutal attack and one who restrained the victim.
Clemente said cuts and rips to Ron’s legs and jeans point to the attack being carried out by more than one person.
“The only way that we behaviourally could figure out how that could happen is if somebody has him in a bear hug from behind and he’s being stabbed by somebody in the front,” Clemente said.
“He’s kicking, he’s fighting for his life. It’s a horrible, horrible scene.”
He went on to note that there were no similar defence wounds on Ron’s arms, which he said suggests they had been held away.
“If he were punching and kicking, you would see the same kinds of wounds through his clothing on his arms because the person with the knife would have been lashing out,” he said.
“He wouldn’t just stab his legs.”
Clemente went on to say that he believed the crime was planned out.
His comments come as a new documentary, titled O.J.'s Accomplice, has been announced by Peacock.
In the new two-parter, which is scheduled to air in December, documentary makers will take a deep dive into the case and explore the fact that cops ‘never seriously considered the idea’ that two people could have been responsible.
According to a synopsis seen by Deadline, the new true crime documentary ‘challenges the dominant narrative around the O.J. Simpson murder saga and offers real evidence suggesting that what we thought we knew about the most obsessed-over crime story of all time could be all wrong’.
It will feature interviews with several people close to the case, including Nicole’s sister and witness Kato Kaelin.
