White blanket placed over Nicole Brown Simpson's body
A cotton blanket retrieved by Detective Lange from the linen closet inside Nicole Brown Simpson's Bundy condominium and placed over her body at the crime scene. The blanket was subsequently criticized as a source of potential hair and fiber contamination, and as evidence the LAPD failed to preserve for trace analysis. A videotape of the June 13 scene breakdown (People's 101) showed Nicole's body still covered by the blood-stained blanket with officers removing yellow tape around 3:45 p.m. A still photograph extracted from Darryl Smith's videotape (People's 57) also depicted the blanket on the walkway.
