Unsealed court records from the O.J. Simpson case reveal that an informant provided information about the missing murder weapon, over 30 years after the killings.
San Francisco Oakland San Jose, CA, October 19, 2026 —
Unsealed court records from the O.J. Simpson case reveal that an informant provided information about the missing murder weapon, more than 30 years after the killings.
The available summary of the records does not identify the informant or describe what information was provided. It also does not say when the information was given, which court records contain it, or whether the information led investigators to the weapon.
The disclosure concerns the weapon’s continued status as missing in the account provided. The records’ unsealing makes the informant’s role part of the publicly available case material, but the limited information does not establish the substance or reliability of the tip, or whether it was independently corroborated.
No details were provided about the circumstances under which the records were unsealed. The summary also does not specify whether the informant spoke to investigators, provided information through another channel, or was identified in the documents.
As a result, the disclosure raises unanswered factual questions rather than resolving the weapon’s whereabouts. The informant’s identity, the content of the information and any investigative outcome were not provided in the available account.
