Petrocelli conducted a methodical examination of O.J. Simpson, pressing him on contradictions in his accounts of June 12-13, 1994. Simpson said he had no explanation for several asserted blood matches, while disputing some premises, and denied taking a polygraph after Petrocelli asserted a minus-22 result. The day also covered Simpson's June 17 departure in Cowlings' Bronco, when he acknowledged taking a grip containing his passport and a disguise and having a gun.

• Petrocelli pressed differences between Simpson's detailed account and his June 13 police statement, including details Simpson acknowledged he had not told detectives
• Simpson repeatedly said he had no explanation for counsel's asserted blood matches at Bundy, Rockingham, in the Bronco, and on socks, while disputing some premises
• Petrocelli asserted that Simpson had failed a polygraph with a minus-22 score; Simpson denied taking a polygraph, and Baker disputed the assertion during a heated sidebar
• Bruno Magli shoes: Simpson said the shoes depicted in Exhibit 2211 looked like Bruno Magli shoes but denied wearing them; the video and photographs did not resolve the dispute
• June 17 Bronco departure: Simpson acknowledged taking a black grip containing his passport and a disguise, having a gun, and giving cash to Cowlings earlier that day
• Simpson said his letter probably contained no explicit word expressing sorrow for Nicole's death but maintained that the whole letter concerned his sorrow; he also agreed that he did not accuse the police caller of planting evidence or framing him
• Juror excused for attempting to contact trial attorneys on two separate occasions
