john: why pay for tax filings when millions of americans can file free to the i.r.s. website? it's not so simple that is why many people in the d.c. area who qualify don't do it. there are still a few catches. every year people pay hundreds of dollars to tax prep services needlessly when they could have done it free of charge to the i.r.s. website. just visit irs.gov and click on the free file section. it will link you to a dozen different companies that will let you file free of charge through their website. the biggest requirement is you must have learned less than $62,000 in 2015. but since most americans do that is not a problem for most

taxpayers. be you may have to pay $30 for the state return. if you choose turbo tax the income limit is not $62,000. it's $31,000. it requires you to be under 56. if you're 57 you may say doesn't that stink? the good news there are options so you should be able to find another service to take you. john: will they ever make it easy and free for everyone? not unless they throw out the tax code. i'm john matarese. alison: tonight, possible answers in the o.j. simpson murder case. the weapon discovered on his property and why it took 20 years to be turned over to police. >> i step off the train, it's not the end they
