Witness: Lt. Frank Spangler
Examiner: Edward Medvene
Called by: Plaintiff • Date: Thursday, December 12, 1996 • Utterances: 5

A brief recross-examination in which Medvene confirms that Detective Fuhrman was stationed out front at Bundy with other officers while waiting for robbery/homicide detectives to arrive. The exchange is minimal — just two confirmatory questions — before Medvene passes and Leonard begins a further recross that is not captured in this excerpt.

# 1 Q:

He was in your view because you were in Bundy, in front of the residence, waiting for the robbery/homicide detectives to arrive?

# 2 A:

That's right. We waited out front.

# 3 Q:

And Detective Fuhrman was also out front with other officers; isn't that correct?

# 4 A:

He was one of the officers that waited; that's correct.

KEY QUOTE

# 5 MR. MEDVENE:

Thank you. I have nothing further.
