Phillip Baker, the son of Robert Baker, served as a civil defense attorney for O.J. Simpson and appeared in deposition proceedings involving Brian “Kato” Kaelin, Simpson, and Denise Brown. At trial, he aggressively cross-examined FBI footwear expert William Bodziak, challenging his methodology concerning the Bruno Magli shoe-print evidence and questioning him about photographs the prosecution had not sent and soil impressions the LAPD had not provided.
