Jury preparation

Date: Monday, May 8, 1995 • Utterances: 12
A brief administrative pause before the jury was brought in, during which Judge Ito asked defense attorney Peter Neufeld to review diagrams with his client (O.J. Simpson). A courtroom staff member named Fairtlough adjusted the diagram display, and once the review was complete, the jury was called in.

Sorry.

I said during the break I wanted you to do that. Why don't you do that real quick. Mr. Fairtlough, do you want to flip the page down, please.

Move it in.

No, right there. Right there is fine.
