Blood stain in the foyer of Simpson's Rockingham home. Multiple drops were collected from the wooden floor as LAPD Item 12; PCR and RFLP DNA analysis matched O.J. Simpson at all five probes with frequencies ranging from 1 in 170 million to 1.2 billion. Defense experts highlighted the sample's high DNA concentration and proximity in processing to victim reference samples as a contamination risk.
Phenolphthalein presumptive blood tests conducted at Simpson's Rockingham residence, including a positive result from the master bathroom sink drain rim and negative results from the sink trap, south-wall stains, family room, and garage areas. Photographs and testimony from criminalists Fung and Mazzola documented the testing; the positive drain-rim result and negative trap result were sharply disputed, with admissibility argued through multiple court sessions.
