Plaintiff's counsel Medvene redirected Officer Terrazas to clarify the location of the blood drop he observed on the rear gate at 875 South Bundy on June 13, 1994. Using photos and a newly marked exhibit (2099 — a photo of the gate mesh), Terrazas circled the blood drop location and confirmed it was visible from the outside/alley side of the gate, facing westbound. Exhibit 2099 was admitted into evidence.
# 2 Q: What is 85, Officer Terrazas?
# 3 A: It appears to be the rear gate leading into the residence from the alley.
# 4 MR. MEDVENE: Would you put on the board 86, please.
# 6 Q: (BY MR. MEDVENE) Would you take a look at 86. And what is that?
# 7 A: Appears to be the blood drop I observed June 13, 1994, sir.
KEY QUOTE # 9 A: It would be, looking at it, eastbound. And the gate itself would be facing westbound.
# 10 Q: That be the area you were outside, guarding?
# 11 A: Outside, looking into the walkway.
# 12 MR. MEDVENE: May I approach, Your Honor?
# 13 Q: (BY MR. MEDVENE) I'm going to place in front of you what we're marking as 2099.
# 14 (The instrument herein described was marked for identification as Plaintiffs' Exhibit No. 2099.) # 15 Q: I'm going to ask if you would be good enough to circle the area of the mesh where you observed the blood in early morning hours of June 13.
# 17 MR. MEDVENE: Would you please place on the board what's been marked as 2099.
# 19 Q: (BY MR. MEDVENE) Can you just point out for the jury where you've circled.
# 22 A: Its a blood drop I observed June 13, , on the rear gate of 875 South Bundy.
# 24 A: Facing westbound, sir.
# 25 Q: You say facing westbound --
# 26 MR. BAKER: I'll object, Your Honor.
# 27 Q: (BY MR. MEDVENE) As you stand outside the gate, which direction is it facing?
# 29 THE COURT: Overruled.
# 30 A: As I stand outside the gate, the gate would face westbound; the blood would face westbound. In order to look at it, I'd have to look at it eastbound.
# 31 Q: (BY MR. MEDVENE) So, in other words, if the victims are found in the position, roughly, of where the court reporter is, and you're walking back westbound, and if the gate is approximately where the podium is --
# 32 A: You lost me, sir.
# 33 Q: If the victims are found roughly where the court reporter is --
# 35 Q: -- and you walk westbound to the gate,
and the gate is approximately where the podium is --
# 37 Q: -- you were standing guard between approximately 12:30 and 4 o'clock, where?
# 38 A: To the rear, sir. It would be outside the gate area, sir.
# 39 Q: And Exhibit 2099 that you just drawn a circle around would be where, as you observed it from where you were standing?
# 40 A: It would be outside, sir, towards the alleyway.
# 41 Q: On the outside of the alley?
# 42 A: On the outside portion, yes, sir.
# 43 MR. MEDVENE: Thank you very much. I have nothing further. We move in 2099, Your Honor.
# 44 THE COURT: Received.
# 45 (The instrument herein described was received in evidence as Plaintiffs' Exhibit No. 2099.)
