Dr. Lakshmanan Sathyavagiswaran, LA County's Chief Medical Examiner, testified all day on the autopsy findings for both Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, with the prosecution methodically presenting detailed wound analysis and time-of-death evidence. The testimony systematically addressed errors by the original autopsy surgeon, while the Goldman segment presented the injuries as consistent with a single assailant using a single-edged knife. Graphic autopsy photographs and wound descriptions proved emotionally taxing on the jury, with one juror showing visible distress, prompting the judge to adjourn early.

• Dr. Sathyavagiswaran testified for entire day on both victims' autopsy findings with extensive photographic evidence
• Nicole Brown Simpson had a lower-back contusion possibly caused by the shod foot of a person weighing about 210 pounds standing on her body
• Prosecution systematically addressed Dr. Golden's autopsy errors as non-material to conclusions about cause and manner of death
• Ronald Goldman's injuries could have been inflicted in under one minute by single attacker using single-edged knife
• Kelberg used stomach contents (including rigatoni and spinach) to lay groundwork for time-of-death analysis and elicited testimony matching Nicole's last meal to her Mezzaluna order
• Forensic analysis of Goldman's wound patterns favored a single-edged knife, but a double-edged knife could not be excluded for injury no. 3
• Defense mounted multiple sidebar objections to prosecution's hypothetical questioning strategy
• Juror displayed visible emotional distress during afternoon testimony, signaling distress to bailiff
• Session ended early at 4:17 P.M. due to jury strain from graphic wound evidence and emotional toll
