A death row inmate claims in a new documentary that he killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman while O.J. Simpson waited close by, CNN reported.

Glen Rogers, arrested in November 1995, has been sentenced to death for murdering women in Florida and California. Police said he told investigators at the time that he killed at least 70 women.

The documentary, to air on the Investigation Discovery channel Wednesday, is titled “My Brother The Serial Killer” and narrated by Clay Rogers.

“I know my brother did it because I’ve seen proof that he was there,” Rogers said.

Father of victim Ronald Goldman immediately dismissed Glen Roger’s claim, saying that the “overwhelming evidence at the criminal trial proved that one and only one, person murdered Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman,” CNN reported.

“That person is O.J. Simpson and not Glen Rogers,” Goldman said. “The fact that [he] was acquitted was a travesty of justice that tarnished the criminal justice system.”

Ronald Goldman’s sister also rejected the claim and voiced her distaste for the channel and its producers to allow such a documentary to film and air on television.

“I am appalled at the level of irresponsibility demonstrated by the network and the producers of this so-called documentary,” Kim Goldman said.

A spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department said the department would look into the Roger’s claims, but does not believe he was involved in the murder.

“The LAPD is quite confident that we know who killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. We have no reason to believe that Mr. Rogers was involved,” Commander Andrew Smith said.
