Mark Storfer testified as a neighbor witness about hearing the dog barking around 10:20 PM and observing police at 12:15 AM, but Cochran exposed inconsistencies between his trial testimony and earlier statements. The day was dominated by Cochran's aggressive cross-examination of Detective Tom Lange, methodically attacking the LAPD's investigation gaps, evidence handling procedures, and alleged coaching by prosecutors. Multiple discrepancies emerged—between Lange's notes and booked evidence (coins, labels, envelope with glasses)—and a critical handwritten grocery list was discovered in Goldman's clothing that Lange had never examined. A bomb scare forced evacuation during lunch, and the day concluded with a motion hearing limiting DNA testing to California facilities.
