procedural Detective Mark Fuhrman occupied center stage through an all-day direct examination by prosecutor Marcia Clark, who systematically walked him through his crime scene observations, movements to the Rockingham compound, and discovery of what appeared to be blood on the Bronco, along with a shovel, plastic sheeting, and packages addressed to O.J. Simpson inside the vehicle. The prosecution methodically built a timeline of Fuhrman's activities. Separately, the prosecution raised a discovery complaint about an undisclosed female witness mentioned by F. Lee Bailey on television, Bailey proposed an in camera proffer, and Bailey pressed for records from sessions in which Fuhrman was questioned before his testimony. Testimony also established Kato Kaelin's account of hearing thumps on his wall at 10:45 PM the prior night.
