Orenthal James Simpson finally reveals how he would have hypothetically killed Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman on Sunday night, 12 years after first recording what will now air as the Fox special OJ: The Last Confession.
DailyMail.com has learned that in the special, Simpson says that he had become angry with Nicole in the weeks before the murders because of her alleged drug use and relationship with Faye Resnick, who he refers to as a ‘hooker’ and ‘call girl.’
Things reached a boiling point on the day of the murder when Simpson claims he was told by a doctor that Resnick and possibly even Nicole would be going to rehab while at a dance recital for his daughter Sydney.

That night, he made the decision to go confront Nicole about this at her home, arriving with a friend he calls ‘Charlie.’
Things got heated when he saw a man he did not recognize arriving to meet Nicole, Ron Golman.
Then, while he and Nicole were yelling at one another, his ex fell over says Simpson, resulting in Goldman coming up to him while holding a knife from Nicole’s home and threatening to fight him with karate.
Simpson says that is when he blacked out and when he came to was covered in blood, so he quickly fled the scene with ‘Charlie,’ leaving his two children alone in the side the house while their dead mother lay fatally stabbed outside the door to her home.

When the topic of his children came up however, Simpson suddenly got very sensitive, declaring: ‘I’m sorry. I can’t do no more of this. I cant do any more of this.’
The segment begins by pointing out that though what the football player says is hypothetical, it is ‘tantamount to a confession.’
OJ: The Last Confession will air Sunday at 8pm on Fox.
This special is siring a little over two years after the final installment of the ESPN documentary OJ: Made In America, in which Mike Gilbert claimed that Simpson told him he had not planned to kill his wife when he went to her home on June 12, 1994, and that she might still be alive if she had not answered the door with a knife in her hand.
Gilbert later said he did not even believe this, and is convinced Simpson went to Nicole’s home with the intention of murdering her over the fact that she had left him and was seeing his friend and protege Marcus Allen.
Marcus Allen’s rep has refused to respond to multiple requests for comment from DailyMail.com.
Gilbert said he and Simpson were drinking Rolling Rock beers and the football star was smoking pot the night they talked about Nicole’s murder while hanging out his Rockingham home.
‘He was looking around the backyard, reliving all the different events that happened there. And I just asked him: “What happened June 12th [the day Nicole was murdered]?’ said Gilbert.
‘And he asked me what I thought happened. And I said: “I always thought you probably did it.”
I said: “I know what you told AC [Al Cowlings], that you went there but you just went to see what was going on, you didn’t take a knife.”‘
That is when Gilbert claims Simpson made his confession.
‘He shook his head and he said: “Yeah.” And he said: ” If she wouldn’t have opened the door with a knife she’d probably still be alive.”‘
Gilbert then said that over time he found even that story to be unbelievable, and now believes Simpson planned to commit the murder all along.
‘I believed that for the longest time and then I … He went there to kill her.
‘He went there to kill her because of how she made him feel … rejected … like she didn’t need him.

‘And then of course the Marcus thing. He was seeing Marcus was him, but 15 years younger.
‘And I guess the part that bothers me about it is that he left the kids upstairs to … they could’ve walked out and seen their mom like that.
‘If I died tomorrow I would know without doubt that he did it not even a slight maybe that he didn’t.”
Gilbert said on the third episode of the documentary that shortly after Nicole Brown ended a brief attempt at a reconciliation between herself and Simpson and told him they were done for good, the football star said to his ex-wife: ‘You ever see Marcus again and I will kill you.’
Nicole and Marcus had been rumored to be having a relationship but he later denied those claims while giving a deposition in Simpson’s 1996 civil trial.
He was also married at the time to his wife Kathryn, who later divorced him and briefly appeared on the Bravo reality series The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
One person who does not deny the rumors however is Nicole, with diary entries she wrote at the time talking about how much she likes Marcus and the way he treats her and how she feels bad about the impact her actions might have on Kathryn.
Gilbert said that in all his time knowing Simpson, and the problems he and Nicole had in their relationship, nothing dealt a more difficult blow to the football star than learning that his ex was seeing Allen, who he had mentored over the years and considered a close friend.
‘When he found out about Marcus that was a real issue,’ said Gilbert.
‘I think she always festered a crush for Marcus,’ said Nicole’s close friend Robin Greer.
‘He was the only person in her life that was as famous and as strong as OJ.’
