Investigating O.J. Simpson: The Case for DNA

October 4, 2016 - Investigating O.J. Simpson: The Case for DNA was the 14th installment in the National Law Enforcement Museum’s Witness to History panel discussion series generously funded by Target®.
The trial of O.J. Simpson for the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ronald Goldman, at her home in suburban Los Angeles riveted audiences across the world. The debate into his innocence or guilt gripped the twenty-four hour news cycle. In the middle of all of this were LAPD Detectives Tom Lange and Phil Vannatter trying to seek justice for the families of two victims.

Clark, Darden, Douglas and Shapiro have all said that OJ was play acting when he tried the murder gloves on.

[@ShinkuGouki]

Him "trying on" the gloves is such a joke. I have been wearing leather motorcycle gloves (which are as tight as the ones he used) and they have ALWAYS been hard to put on and take off,even with daily use. He didn't even try to really put them on. You can see him making his fingers stiff and then he raises his hands to the judge like a toddler in kindergarten. The gloves fit,they were his size. He played it off good. If a cop would have put them on,they would have fit.

Plain and simple DNA was basically blood testing type. Lang trying his best to explain what he couldn't do In court answer the questions. Fuhrman pleaded the fifth amendment: why? Because he calls Black disparaging words. Never in the history of America would a cop plead the fifth amendment!, for calling Black people racist remarks.

[@migi5659]

Lange really liked the left hand injury evidence he always mentions it.....but unfortunately there were 8 witnesses including the pilot of the plane who came out to get an autograph from OJ during the flight(youtube has the video of his testimony) 2 SkyCap, limo driver, Howard Bingham(Alis photographer) , and 4 witnessed in First Class all who were on the plane and stated OJs hands were not cut. So when Lange states the left hand glove at the scene and blood coming from the left side it clearly means he can prove it was OJ ,but those witnesses who saw him 40-45 minutes after the murder stating his hands were not cut messes his theory up. He really believed OJ did it but unfortunately his theory wasnt backed up by witness testimony.

[@Jim.Jim.32]

This was also backed up by Chigaco PD. They found blood and a broken drinking glass in his hotel room. Lange was trying to set traps for OJ in that interview. He was referring to the small knicks around his nails...for which he did not know how he got them...not the larger cut. Lange is full of shit but what do you expect lang to say when they had zero evidence except the glove.

[@mitchcumstein142]

Here is why I believe that Simpson had the cuts on his hand before going to Chicago. 1) He told Michael Baden, his defense appointed physician, that he cut his hand before leaving to Chicago and it bled. 2) He told the detectives the very next day after the murder that his hand was cut and he "put something on it" before his trip, indicating it was bleeding. 3) His blood was found at the murder scene next to Nicole's dead body...and that was collected BEFORE Simpson had given his blood to the police. So why do I believe these facts and not the eyewitnesses? Because they weren't looking for cuts on his hands in the first place while at the airport; they had no idea what had happened. How many times would you look at somebody's hands and remember if they had a band-aid on it? Especially if the primary cut was on his left hand (OJ is right-handed).

[@migi5659]

mitch cumstein I understand your point but to say that EVERYONE he encountered at LAX didn't notice a cut on his hand is a big stretch. Also note Detective Lange himself (seen in this video)called the Chicago hotel and they verified the OJ requesting a bandage for his hand and broken glass in his room..Detective Lange said this himself. OJ signed multiple autographs while at the airport so his hands were visible. The passenger who sat next to him testified to looking for championship rings which would be on his hands and he said he saw NO cuts... The cut appearing after him hearing the news of the murder was also backed up by witness testimony by the Hertz employee who picked OJ up and took him to the airport. So in order for the cut to have happened prior to the murders means everyone was lying or overlooked the cut.

[@mitchcumstein142]

@@migi5659 "So in order for the cut to have happened prior to the murders means everyone was lying or overlooked the cut." Yes, and in order to believe the cut happened after, that would mean that OJ himself was either completely mistaken about his own hand wound or lied twice (for what reason I'm not sure). Plus it would mean that the Bundy walkway drops were somebody else's blood, and then once in the lab, were secretly replaced by OJ's blood without the original assailants blood ever being typed. So it's either that, or people didn't see something they weren't looking for in the first place. I guess you know where I stand. :)

[@mitchcumstein142]

@@migi5659 one more point to illustrate why I think your scenario is unlikely. When Oj's doctor examined him after the murder (Huizenga, not Baden) he found 3 cuts and 7 abrasions on his hands. Certainly this didn't come from a cut class in Chicago, right?

[@narcissist31]

Towards the end of this video when Lang talks about the bags and the airport and the trash bin. That has always been one of the things that has bothered me the most. I feel like there is one instance in the case where the police work was crappy. So you have this murder, you had found the glove at simpson's. IN the early morning they at some point knew simpson got on a plane and went to chicago. Granted at that point the following morning they didn't think simpson was a suspect or that the blood they found was going to be a match. BUt seems to me that within the next couple days when they started finding blood all over the driveway and his bedroom, why didn't they send officers to the airport to where and about simpson was and and ask about trash pickups etc. Even if the trash had been picked up, within a few days they probably could have traced it to the trash pit. Because there was a small window in which simpson could have gotten rid of the bloody clothes. I feel like they should have tried harder to recover that evidence.

[@ytpremium7649]

According to former Al Cowlings girlfriend Jennifer Peace Al told her that OJ did something terrible And that they will never find that knife I doubt OJ would deposit severely incriminating evidence in a trash bin at an airport because it’s risky It’s better to secure a way that ensures that all evidence disappears forever It’s anyone’s guess how OJ made all the clothes and knife magically disappear and I’m sure Al Cowlings knows where the knife went to likely be shredded and melted

That didn't cast any doubt on the prosecution's case. They were just lucky that they were dealing with a joke of a judge and a racist jury made mostly from the P.o.t.A. film series.

And he confirmed Kato' s statement because he noticed a man with a flashlight. And what about the different versions to explain the finger wound. First it was a cut by a glass at the Chicago hotel.

Interesting point.

She was the white woman who broke up the black family. (their thoughts, not mine). Think of the Emmett Till case. The men that killed him were not convicted - also a travesty. But note how when people talk about that case they tend to attack the woman who said he whistled at her and then later retracted, instead of aiming full on at his actual murderers. There is a lot of misogyny in human beings that is very ugly. The jurors also did not understand DNA, in part because it was relatively new then but also because they were not educated or sophisticated enough to understand it, but also because I don't think they WANTED to understand it. No matter why the jury acquitted him, whether it was payback for Rodney King, etc etc., ,it will always be a terrible injustice to those victims and families. I've never seen so much scientific evidence in a trial before, ever. That's what makes it so numbingly stupid that he wasn't convicted.

Lange showed up at 4 a.m., Fuhrman had already been on the scene for two hours. By the time Lange arrived they also had tentatively identified Nicole, meaning Fuhrman knew it was likely her. This is important because Fuhrman had been to a previous police call of OJ and Nicole. Lange saying it was one glove at the scene doesn't carry weight because he arrived two hours after Fuhrman. Lange also said there is blood everywhere while explaining the castoff he saw on Ron and Nicole, but no one saw blood on OJ that night. Initially in the interrogation, even OJ himself said he was bleeding, but no one saw any bleeding or stains on him? No band aid until he broke the glass in Chicago? Goldman supposedly fought for his life and had defensive wounds, but the only marks on OJ were cuts on his fingers? Bringing up Arnelle proved to be lying, but not investigating her further shows they were only focused on OJ. At 28:28 is a key to the case. Most of the DNA/blood found could not be ruled out as coming from a close relative of OJ's. Besides the EDTA questioned bloody sock and spot on the back gate (found weeks later), what conclusively tied OJ to the crimes? At 43:37 once again the DNA/blood is said not to produce home run answers in this case, so why does the panel and the public talk like the evidence proves OJ did it? The evidence did not rule out a close relative. At 45:47 Rock Harmon didn't want to explain the EDTA. Listening to him and people like him, I would have thought this case was simple and straight forward. Lange's partner Vannatter had the blood of Nicole, Goldman, and OJ with him in the field. This came out at the civil trial, not after Vannatter died. At the first trial, OJ actually harbored a lot of anger at Vannatter. At 1:07:22 "uniquely associated" is another it could be his, but others can't be ruled out. That morphed into the blood identified as being his at 1:07:39 but despite the sureness gains the previous 20 seconds it was another could be his. At 1:08:41 this is summed up by saying it fits him better than anyone we looked at so it must be him. The hair was also consistent to OJ, wasn't proved to be his conclusively. As a whole, similar hair could be found in large numbers in the African-American community. Lange labeled OJ some type of psycho/sociopath during their interview, but want us to believe they hadn't already zeroed in OJ then. OJ wasn't inconsistent during the tape interview, he just wasn't specific. The tape wasn't presented at trial because the prosecution didn't think it would help them get a conviction. At 1:13:55, Lange is lying. It was OJ who volunteered to the officers to take his blood. At 1:21:14 when Lange brought up his kids, OJ reacted harshly and didn't want to talk about them. 1:25:34 is more excuses. Lange said OJ wouldn't take evidence back to an area swamped by police, well burying it in an airport trash can might not be that far removed. OJ didn't know when the airport picked up its trash. OJ was the best suspect they had because they refused to look at other possibilities. Over 20 years later they are still using the same smoke and mirrors to hide this fact and make OJ look more guilty than he is. The LAPD and those who worked on the case are the definition of dishonest.

OJ: The three excuses for not coming to the door when the limo driver was ringing the bell. I over slept. This is all on tape in his first interview with the police. I was in the shower. I was chipping golf balls. The three excuses for the deep cuts on the finger. I cut myself in Chicago. I must have cut myself while getting ready and went out to the bronco to get my phone. It was an old wound that must have opened up from playing golf. Never heard of a golfer getting a deep cut on the outside of the finger while playing golf. For those of you who have no capability of critical thinking and think the police planted OJ's blood. The blood spatter was marked in the early morning at Rockingham. They did not collect OJ's blood until later on in the day. Also keep in mind there are 20 police officers or more hanging around. Also the media was all around. Now ask yourself this conspiracy people. What would be the purpose of framing one of the most beloved popular sports figures in the country? What exactly would they gain by framing him? The police would know that this would be so publicised and that they would be under a microscope. Not exactly the case you would pick if you wanted to frame someone.

[@Jim.Jim.32]

You are misinformed. 1. The detectives where referring to the small nicks around his fingernails, for which he did not know how he got them. They were setting traps for him and he was trying to be as helpful as possible. The larger cut occurred in Chicago. This was backed up by the fact they found broken glass and blood in his Chicago hotel room. 2. All OJ blood was found days, weeks and months later. No OJ blood was found before he gave the sample on June 13, 1994. They claimed to see a speck of blood on the bronco door handle. This was used to get the search warrant, which they lied to get. Vannater also broke chain of custody and was in possession of all the principals blood for at least 3 hours. Incidentally, 1.5ccs of OJ blood came up missing when the vial was returned. (about 30 drops). Furman planted the glove and the LAPD quickly realized they had no other evidence so they salted the scene to strengthen their case. Juros made the right call.

[@danaolsen5135]

Both co lead detectives went to both crime scenes??? Once they "found" the blood on the bronco Lang should have travelled back to Bundy and started his investigation of that scene.i find it hard to believe that the limo went out of the Rockingham gate but never ran over any of the blood that was on the driveway. Nobody saw blood on OJ Simpson except Oj Simpson who admitted that he had cut himself before he left ( why would oj admit that unless he was trying to steer the investigation in his direction). Lang says "just go to breakfast" but what they should have been doing is investigating the actual homicide and doing justice to the victims. Simpson co operated with the police which made this case even more bizarre. Its unusual that a quilty person would allow his blood to be taken so willingly. So if the blood work back than needed to be collected quickly before mother nature got to it why than was the criminalist called to Rockingham before Bundy.

[@collander7766]

Blood trails from Rockingham show that O.J. was cut before entering the house, not upstairs like he said (leading into the foyer iirc). He entered through the back while trying to sneak past the Limo and Kato. On top of that, Simpson answered differently as to how he got cut when asked on separate equations. The nail in the coffin is the evidence that the assailant was bleeding from their left side at the crime scene, and O.J.’s cu, as well as the missing glove, was left-handed 😐

@@timelapsetv3869 I have no love for Fuhrman, and if I were the prosecution I would absolutely blast him, but you have to remember that racists tend to hold that feeling for the most egregious of that race, no matter what that race is or who. Furhrman had racist comments on tapes for a screenplay; however, I DO think he probably was racist towards some people, just like he was sexist towards women, etc. But it is more likely - by far - that the blacks Fuhrman felt racism for were those he came in contact with in investigations that had long criminal records, were not rich, famous athletes who actually befriended the cops. for example, O.J. was a black man who associated with primarily white friends, so much so that Cochran changed all of the pics in his home etc to images of black family members and art, etc because he knew the jurors would dislike seeing photos of all white people in the home. This is truly how far we have come which isn't far. Simpson was a wealthy black man who got along with cops; he was also a famous athlete. This is not the typical person a racist would frame, and I don't think it squares. I don't think he was framed in any way. If the defendant had been a poor dude with a criminal past, then yes, you may have seen more possibility for feelings of racism. O.J.? No. Besides, people think that it's so easy to frame someone, and forget that a cop or investigator will suffer long term consequences if found doing so, and also, what's the real reason? Just cuz you're racist? Nah that's not even logical.
