Jennifer Peace, who says she was dating O.J. Simpson’s close friend Al Cowlings at the time, claims he told her that “The Juice” confessed to double murder right after he allegedly killed his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. Simpson passed away last year at the age of 76 without ever finding the “real” killer like he said he would.
According to RadarOnline.com, the media outlet met with Jennifer Peace at three different L.A. hotels and spent several days talking to her, Al Cowlings appeared to know something wasn’t right with O.J. Simpson in the days leading up to the double murder.
“I’m worried about O.J. He’s been really distracted lately and keeps flying into rages about Nicole. He’s not himself. I’m afraid of what he’s capable of,” she claims Cowlings told her, RadarOnline.com reported this week.
Peace claims Cowlings, who was the driver of the infamous white Ford Bronco on the day of O.J. Simpson’s arrest, said O.J. had become obsessed with Ron Goldman after he saw him driving Nicole’s Ferrari. She also claims Cowlings told her that “The Juice” was stalking Ron Goldman and wanted to intimidate him into not seeing Nicole anymore.
Jennifer Peace says that on the night of the double murder, O.J. Simpson called Al Cowlings, who kept saying to her, “She didn’t deserve that. She was a good mother, a nice lady. She shouldn’t have been killed that way.”
She added, “Then A.C. said something that just made the hair stand up on my head: ‘O.J. called me the night of the murders, hysterical, freaking out. He kept saying over and over: ‘I didn’t mean to do it. I’ve done something terrible. I didn’t mean for things to turn out this way.’
Peace said Cowlings told her that he “didn’t think things would go this far” and that the knife Simpson used to kill Nicole and Ron Goldman was “in the water somewhere.”
This is not the first time that Jennifer Peace, who used to do adult films under the name Devon Shire, has told this story. A Sept. 12, 1994 story published by UPI reported about Peace claiming “Cowlings told her Simpson acted in a blind rage when he killed his wife.”
Back then she said O.J. “didn’t go there to kill Nicole. He had the knife on him, and he got so angry, he went into a rage and almost blacked out over what happened.”
Back then, Al Cowling’s attorney, Donald Re, said the Peace’s story wasn’t true, and that she only went out with Cowling one time. Despite that claim, Peace was taken in for questioning after the murders when seven LAPD homicide detectives and two assistant district attorneys came to her two-bedroom West Hollywood duplex with a search warrant. She was then interrogated for almost three hours by detectives and forced to appear before the grand jury investigating Cowlings the next day.
