Detective Lange's cross-examination continued with aggressive challenges from the defense on evidence handling, timeline issues, and alternative homicide theories, particularly a drug-motive angle involving Faye Resnick. The prosecution then conducted extensive redirect testimony on time-of-death factors before excusing Lange. The day concluded with the introduction and initial testimony of Detective Mark Fuhrman, with the prosecution preemptively addressing his credibility concerns and press allegations.

• Cochran pressed Detective Lange on whether he verified the Bronco was locked and on Lange's decision to take a cotton blanket from inside the Brown Simpson home and place it over Nicole's body
• Defense sought permission to question Lange about an alleged Cora Fischman statement, but Judge Ito ruled it beyond the scope of direct; Cochran also explored a drug-investigation angle involving Faye Resnick and the Exodus rehab facility
• Prosecution and defense clashed repeatedly over foundation and hearsay issues, with mixed rulings from Judge Ito, who also threatened sanctions against Clark for a speaking objection
• Clark conducted extensive redirect on time-of-death factors and evidence integrity, addressing the drug-theory alternative and separately eliciting testimony about keys found near Ron Goldman's body
• Detective Mark Fuhrman was called as a witness; Clark questioned him about a 1985 Rockingham family-dispute call, had him deny the Kathleen Bell allegations, and then walked him through his initial Bundy crime scene observations
