Witness: Judge Delbert Wong
Examiner: Johnnie Cochran
Called by: Prosecution • Date: Wednesday, March 29, 1995 • Utterances: 7

Cochran conducts a very brief recross-examination of Judge Wong, consisting of a single clarifying question confirming that the items in question were picked up in Los Angeles, California. The exchange is routine and minimal, notable mainly for the lighthearted banter between Cochran and Judge Ito about how many questions Cochran would ask.

# 1 MR. COCHRAN:

ONE LAST QUESTION.

# 2 THE COURT:

ONE LAST QUESTION.

# 3 MR. COCHRAN:

WELL, MAYBE TWO.
