Simpson Travel Bags Luggage

Custom Swiss Army Brands Limited golf bag with sheath and cover, described as one of approximately 15–16 ever made, loaded into the limousine on the night of June 12 and transported to Chicago. It was shipped back to Los Angeles by Merrill, retrieved from LAX on June 14, 1994, and eventually recovered from Bob Kardashian's Encino garage with an American Airlines Flight 1103 tag; also brought to the courtroom for a weight-comparison demonstration by Allan Park.

Louis Vuitton fold-over garment bag carried by O.J. Simpson to Chicago and back on American Airlines Flight 668; park initially identified it as Gucci but later said it looked 'very similar, if not the bag' he saw Simpson carry downstairs. The bag was visibly full when Robert Kardashian removed it from the Rockingham estate on June 13, 1994; when recovered by retired Judge Delbert Wong it was empty, with airline tags still attached. Luminol testing was negative for blood.

Black leather duffel bag carried by O.J. Simpson at O'Hare Airport and off his return flight from Chicago, described by witnesses as virtually empty or only partially filled. It was also observed outside the Rockingham front entrance on the night of June 12 and loaded into the limousine; later identified in court by multiple witnesses as consistent with bags they saw that night.

Blue bag introduced in court during the civil trial as a possible match for the small dark bag seen on the Rockingham driveway. Allan Park firmly denied it was the bag he observed; O.J.

Small dark bag, approximately 18 by 6 inches, seen by Kato Kaelin and Allan Park near the rear of the Rolls Royce or Bentley on the Rockingham driveway around 11:00 PM on the night of June 12, 1994. O.J. Simpson personally retrieved it and refused assistance; the bag was never seen at LAX or subsequently recovered, and prosecutors argued it likely contained a weapon or bloody clothing. Simpson's own account described it as a white ball bag containing used golf balls and a windbreaker.

O.J. Simpson's personal grip or duffel bag carried back from Chicago on June 13, 1994, taken by Detective Vannatter to Parker Center, and confiscated again on June 17. Contents found upon search included a passport, cash of approximately $8,000, a disguise, prescription medication including a full bottle of Xanax, and a firearm that was with Simpson during the Bronco chase; the bag was subsequently given to Al Cowlings.

Documents relating to Robert Kardashian's handling of Simpson's luggage from Rockingham, including his grand jury testimony (described as vague about dates), a proposed stipulation released to the press by the defense, and a draft defense stipulation regarding chain of custody of the bag — all subject to dispute between prosecution and defense at the criminal trial.
