The jury heard extensive fiber and trace evidence from FBI expert Douglas Deedrick linking crime scene items to Simpson's Bronco and clothing, establishing that distinctive carpet fibers from the vehicle matched samples found at the Bundy scene. However, Judge Fujisaki barred Deedrick from presenting statistical probability evidence, ruling that attaching numbers to circumstantial evidence created prejudicial 'patina.' The defense mounted a vigorous attack on Deedrick's methodology and claimed he failed to disclose exculpatory findings, while DNA expert Robin Cotton was sworn in to begin foundational testimony on DNA testing methods.
