Former prosecutor Marcia Clark is opening up about the recent bombshell that Los Angeles police are currently investigating a knife that was allegedly recovered on property once owned by O.J. Simpson.
“I really don’t know what to think of it,” Clark tells ET exclusively. “I can’t believe someone gave a police officer what appears to be, could be, important evidence in a case – even if it is closed – and takes it home. I don’t know what to say about that except I can’t believe it, but it’s apparently what happened.”
Of course, she still remains skeptical.
“I don’t know whether to say it is truly evidence, none of us knows that yet – it might be a hoax, it might be somebody who planted it and then just pretended to find it and gave it to the off-duty police officer, you don’t know,” Clark says. “But, of course, I’m glad the LAPD is taking it seriously and subjecting it to testing so we can find out.”
Clark notes that DNA evidence could still be potentially recovered from the knife, if it is indeed not a hoax.
“It’s very possible – I mean, they recover DNA on mummies in Egypt,” Clark says. “It’s entirely possible that if there is some DNA to be recovered, that it could be found, especially with today’s technology, which is much more sensitive.”
“I think it’s a remarkable development if it does turn out to be connected to the murders of Ron and Nicole,” she adds. “It would be interesting if there was some evidence on that knife that pointed to who might have helped to bury it, if indeed someone else did.”
Though Clark points out that the chances of this leading to any sort of prosecution is unlikely.
“The likelihood of any prosecution stemming from this evidence is very, very slim,” she admits. “But we have to find out what this means – what the truth of this is.”
