Darryl Mounger represented Mark Fuhrman as his personal attorney during a pivotal moment in the trial — when Fuhrman faced being recalled to the witness stand over the McKinny tapes. Mounger argued forcefully for access to the Fuhrman tape recordings, telling the court he needed to hear what was on them before he could advise his client whether to testify or invoke the Fifth Amendment, noting that Fuhrman's original testimony had been compelled by LAPD rules but that he would now return as a private citizen with different constitutional rights. He appeared across two critical days in the trial, navigating motions over tape access, evidence suppression, and ultimately Fuhrman's return to the stand on September 6, 1995.
