back now to this news alert out of los angeles regarding the o. j. simpson case. let's listen in. >> we need to -- we stiti don't know if that is an accurate account of how thistem came into our possession. the actual item is described as a knife. i'm not going into description of the knife because that could be jermaine to determine iffin this actual piece of evidence is evidence or if it's just fact silly or made up story. we need to look into that. and robbery homicide is going to look into that. so what i can tell you is that the story, as it's told to us by the person we received it from, and the person we received it from is a retired lapd officer, who retired back in the late '90s. he was a motor officer. at the time, according to him, he was working an off duty,

movie job, which a lot of our officers do on off duty basis as well as our retired officers. do not know if he was retired tat time he allegedly received the item from the person who claimed they foundt on the property or if he was still in fact an lapd officer and retired some time after that. we're lookingnto that. the bottom line is that with all cases that remain open, such as the o. j. simpson an other murder cases and robbery cases, unless there's an actual arrest or conviction to prove that we have actually closed the case, the case remain open. that is where we are with the o. j. simpson case. and i shouldn't say the o. j. simpson case. this is nicole brown case, this is a double homicide that is still open and ongoing. so the investigators will continue to look into this. that item has been recovered by

it is being treated as we would all evidence. it's being submitted to our lab. they're going to study it and examinee it for forensic, dna, hair samples and that's ongoing as we speak. so with that, i can take a couple of questions and i may not be able to answer all of your questilns. let me start right here. >> captain, can you just give us reaction, the reaction with an officer with lapd decides to keep evidence in what many describe as the biggest mur murder trial in all of la, what was your reaction? >> i was reallysurprised. i would think an lapd officer, if this story is accurate, any time you come into contact with evidence that you should and shall submit that to investigators. i don't know what the circumstances are i don't know why that didn't happen or if

story is bogus from the get go involving a variety of people. we're looking into that. i was quite shocked. so in terms of charges, the off areas retired. in terms of administrative charges with the department, we will look into that. at this point, i don't believe there are any administrative charges that could be filed because he's no longer an employee of the department. in terms of criminal allegations, robbery homicide investigators will look into if there are any poe ten alty of criminal charges of related to this. (inaudible queion) >> i don't have thaha information. the investigators have asked that we not be vy december cryptive about the knife. they haven't told me so i don't stent tally tell you and for obvious reasons. we need to one determine is this evidence and if it's not evidence, how do we prove one

the only way we do that is challenge the people involved as to what -- where it was recovered, where it was alleged to have been etc. >> (inaudible question) >> my understanding is that it's a knife, not a machete. >> (inaududle question) >> so my understanding, i'm not an attorney, but it's my understanding from being a police officer nearly 30 years that double jeopardy would be in place here. we could not charge mr. simpson with the homicides that he's already been charged with because he's been acquitted. >> (inaudible question) >> it depends on what kind of evidence they're able to glean from the item. we're working on that and there's a lot of attention to this. we're interested in finding out

the story to rest or confirm something. >> (inaudible question) >> as i'm told, the retired officer was working in rocking ham estate area and claimed that an individl who claimed to be a construction worker provided him w wh this knife, claiming that it was found on the property. so he held onto it until just recently when we discovered that he had it. and we have now recovered it within the last month. >> (inaudible question) >> that may be part of the investigation but i don't know. >> (inaudible question) >> there will be plenty of additional investigation. i don't know where that will lead our investigators. that property, as many of you know, has been demolished and rebuilt. i don't know if they will be gogog back there. certainly they will look into

let me go over here. >> (inaudible question) >> yeah we're not going to ovide the exact dates and could go to proving or disproving the legitimacy of this ite and where it came from and who was involved. >> (inaudibib question) >> i don't know that. >> (inaudible question) >> yeah, i don't have that information. it's my b understanding that he believed that the case was closed, which, again, is a possibility that he had that misunderstanng. so, again, as i explained at the beginning, any case that is not where we don't have a conviction all of the charges or we're not ableo prove to our satisfaction that we have proved the facts of the case remains an open case. and that is the case here. >> (inaudible)

statement is. that's the information that i have at this time. i'm sure we will look into that further. we are not releasing his name at this time. >> do you know the name of the person who found the knife? >> we don't. if you're seeing this story and you believe you are that individual that provided this knife, we would love to have you contact our robbery homicide division an we would get more information from you then. >> (inaudible question) >> i don't know that. we will look into any criminal charges that may be involved here. >> (inaudible question)) >> i don't know that. >> captain, how much dna can go over time? >> i'm not a forensic expert, but depending on where an item is kept, stored an maintained, it's possible to get dna.

forensically with our natural history, discovery of items that arar very old. so we're hopeful. if this involved, our investigators will submit it to the labs that are very good at what they do and we will see. >> i don't know. >> (inaudible question) >> well, it depends on the type of testing and the condition of forensics. there's a lot of process and i'm not a scientist. we have folks experts in that and they will do everything in their power to maintain that and produce anything producible. >> can you talk about how lapd found out about snit >> so it was brought to our attention that this retired officer had an item that was believed to or allegedly, possibly taken from or recovered

back in the '90s. that's how once we learned about that we recovered up. i don't know how the contact was made. we discovered it and investigators immediately followed up on it. >> (inaudible question) >> yeah, i don't know. i don't know where it was recovered orow it was rereported to have been recovered. when a case is remains open, it is handed off to special team. our open case team. that is who has it at robbery homicide. they would not have been the original investigators on this case. that happens in many cases that go on for years. we have a number of cases that are still openfrom decades ago where the officers and investigators are certainly retired by now. last question. >> the retired officer retired back at the time you received

>> i don't have that information. we're trying to determinehat what his status was hen the item was handed to him wheer he was retired or shortly afterthat. he did retirere in the late 90s. so i'm not sure when this item came into his possession. >> he was working movie shift? >> a lot of officers work. you see them m ound the community, los angeles and elsewhere typically on lapd -- not motorcycles they work on movie bikes that look like lapd officers and in uniform. that is by agreement with the city and with the department they work those jobs for traffic public. it's my understanding he was working one of those jobs as a motor officer for the movie job. so he would, in any case, be off dudu whether he was retired or still employed by lapd in an off duty capacity. >> what is his name? >^ we're not providing his name

thank you very much. >> ashley: and we have been listening to a live news conference out of los angeles where police are telling us they have been given a key piece of evidence possibly in the o. j. simpson case. a apparently a retired police officer was given a knife by a worker who said they found that smalluck knife on the o. j. simpson property there. >> diana: it p happened during the demolition of the house, apparently. this at the o oj. simpson estate. so that construction worker found the weapon. it was folding buck knife and law enforcement sources say the construction wororr took the knife out to the street. he saw hau enforcement officer, lapd cop and told him he found the knife and t t officer took it home and kept it t for years. this did not surface once again until recently when he told a friend, who was also an ficer, about that knife after he wanted to frame it.

their hands on a knife that was found on the simpson p property more than 20 years after o. j. simpson's wife and her friend were murdered. we, of course, will stay on top of this still-developing story and we're come right back.what would you do, if you could choose your ultimate adventure? explore the ocean with a tour guide that's a ton of fun. race like a cheetah at 60 miles per hour. or fly down a waterslide. with choose your adventure, you can explore four parks for less.
