Vannatter June 13 Search Warrant Affidavit
Sworn affidavit by Detective Philip Vannatter prepared beginning around 7:00–7:45 a.m. and signed by a magistrate at 10:45 a.m. on June 13, 1994, authorizing the initial search of O.J. Simpson's Rockingham estate. The affidavit described the discovery of a glove behind the residence while officers were securing the premises, blood drops from the Bronco to the front door, and the resemblance between the two gloves; it was later challenged for two alleged misstatements—describing Simpson's Chicago trip as 'unexpected' or 'unanticipated,' and characterizing blood on the Bronco door handle as 'confirmed human blood' based only on a presumptive test.
