Nicole was killed on 12 June 1994 along with her friend Ron Goldman and Simpson was subsequently arrested.
He was acquitted of murdering Nicole and Goldman after a trial in 1995. but was found liable for their wrongful deaths in a 1997 civil suit.
“I mean, the only thing that he forgot to leave at the crime scene was a ‘Hi, My Name Is’ name tag,” said Brown.
Brown added: “The evidence was just so, so extreme. They had everything.
“We know who did it, it’s not going to change anything. Life goes on.”
Brown said she “believed it was a drive-by shooting” for several months, but now urged viewers to go back to the 911 call Nicole made about her husband.

According to Brown, the family’s focus is now on Nicole’s two children with Simpson - Sydney and Justin.
She added: “I made a commitment to myself years ago to really understand and accept that this is their dad and no matter what, he will always be their dad.
“So I chose to keep that peace. And that’s what helps me go on.”
Brown said she does have regret over not attending a dance recital just hours before Nicole’s murder.
She said: “Had I known it would’ve been the last night I would’ve seen my sister, and all of us together, most certainly I would have been there, but sadly I didn’t.
“But I can’t go back there in my head or in my heart.”
