Larry Schiller, a confidant of Simpson throughout his murder trial, made the shocking claims about how Shapiro seemingly outraged Simpson by getting so close to the truth — in the same discussion that left co-attorney Robert Kardashian doubting his close friend's innocence!

The shocking meeting began when Simpson, his trusted friend Kardashian, noted lawyer F. Lee Bailey and lead attorney Shapiro gathered in court on October 11, 1994. According to Schiller, Shapiro began to lay out a shocking scenario of what could have happened on the night of June 13, 1994, when Nicole was brutally murdered after attending a school recital with her ex-husband earlier in the evening.

"You were offended when the family refused to allow you to go to dinner with them at Mezzaluna," said Shapiro, according to Schiller. "You decided to punish Nicole by slashing her tires. You went to her home with a knife and were about to slash them when she caught you."

"She caught you," Shapiro allegedly repeated, "and you were so embarrassed. You didn't want her to tell anybody. So, in a rage, you cut her throat. Goldman came by, and you thought he was her lover. You were so enraged, you killed him. The bloody clothes and the knife go in the golf bag to Chicago."

Shapiro then allegedly shocked everyone at the table by implicating Kardashian in covering up the murder. "A day later, after we meet," Schiller claims Shapiro told his client, "you and Kardashian go to the airport and recover the bag. You take the bloody clothes and the knife out. Kardashian disposes of them."

Schiller claimed that Simpson then "shook" before shouting out: "You've got to be crazy!" F. Lee Bailey reportedly warned Kardashian: "It's now being suggested that you are an accessory after the fact to murder." "I can't believe what I'm hearing," Kardashian replied. "I'm not an accessory to anything." But, according to Schiller, Shapiro insisted: "You know he could have done this."

During the trial, Kardashian was still careful to distance himself from similar charges — telling Barbara Walters in a television interview that he had done "nothing wrong" when carrying Simpson's brown Louis Vuitton garment bag away from the Rockingham mansion.

Kardashian even added that he had offered the bag to police, saying: "This is Mr. Simpson's luggage" — and explaining that it was from the trip to Chicago the same night of the murders. Kardashian said that the police didn't show any interest in the suitcase, and he kept the luggage unopened in his home even though detectives "could have taken it any time."

Simpson never forgave Kardashian for going public, according to Schilling — who cited the attorney as a main source in a book that he wrote about the trial. Schilling also joined Kardashian in being considered a "traitor" by Simpson. "They've betrayed me," Simpson told a friend. "I feel like they've stabbed me in the back."
