Rumours of a deathbed confession by OJ Simpson regarding the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman have been declared "totally false."  

A source close to Simpson in his final days denied any mention of the murders, with TMZ reporting his final requests focused on simple necessities and watching golf.

Simpson, who died on April 10 at age 76 from prostate cancer,  was controversially acquitted of the 1994 murders in the infamous "Trial of the Century." However, a subsequent civil case found him liable for the deaths, resulting in a $33.5 million judgement against him that remains largely unpaid.

In his final days, OJ Simpson required well-wishers, including his children, to sign non-disclosure agreements and leave their phones at the door before visiting him in hospice. Among those who signed were his children from his first marriage, Jason and Arnelle, and his children with Nicole, Sydney and Justin.

It's estimated that 30 to 50 people visited Simpson before he passed. 

His family has declined requests to study his brain for CTE or chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a brain disease that has been diagnosed in many deceased professional football players and is believed to be caused by repeated head trauma, according to the Mayo Clinic. But his family confirmed that his body will be cremated. 

Despite the lack of confession, the Goldman family, represented by lawyer David Cook, maintains that Simpson owed them over $100 million prior to his death.
