She said she received three phone messages from him that day leaving her to believe that he had received her message. • Simpson had testified he never received Barbieri's message. Under cross-examination, Barbieri said she could not be certain Simpson got her message.
2:30 p.m. In a conversation with "Kato" Kaelin, OJ tells Kaelin that he and Nicole aren't together
6:00 p.m.Nicole Brown Simpson and OJ Simpson leave their daughter, Sydney's, dance recital held at the Paul Revere Junior High School. They depart in separate vehicles as they had arrived. At home, OJ tells Kato that Nicole and a friend had been wearing very "tight" outfits, Im assuming he was referring to the black dress that Nicole was killed in.
8:30 p.m. Nicole's check totaling $213.95 including tip, is cashed out on Nicole's American Express credit card, then exits the restaurant shortly after.
9:00 - Faye Resnick calls Nicole from a drug rehabilitation center. She says Nicole says she told Simpson: "Get away from us! Get out of my life. You're not welcome with this family anymore."
9:37 - Nicole's mother, Juditha Brown, calls Mezzaluna to report leaving her glasses behind.
*9:40: Juditha Brown called Nicole and told her about her eyeglasses. She asked Nicole to pick them up in the morning.
Approximately 9:44: Nicole called the Mezzaluna Restaurant and spoke with Ron Goldman. Goldman agreed to drop Judith's eyeglasses off at Nicole's house on his way to meet his friends.
Approximately 9:50: Goldman left the Mezzaluna Restaurant.
10:00 p.m. - OJ removes the dome light from his Bronco then carefully places it under the passenger side seat. The time frame as to when OJ removed the dome light is known only to himself, but it's assumed that the light was removed before he left his residence in order to avoid detection or recognition. No one knows for certain when it was removed, only that the light was indeed removed, not replaced, found under the passenger side seat and it was in perfect working condition. Police often use this tactic when on stakeouts, to avoid detection.
*10:03: Simpson called Paula Barbeiri using his cell phone. She does not answer her phone. He only reaches her answering machine.
10:00 - 10:15 - OJ drives the two miles to Nicole's Bundy residence. He proceeds to slit her throat nearly decapitating her. He stabs her in her neck, throat and chest. She was dead within minutes.
10:30 p.m. - Robert Heidstra, one of Nicole's neighbors, reports hearing a man's voice shouting, "Hey! Hey! Hey!." He also reported hearing another man respond, but could not distinguish exactly what was said. • 10:30 - 10:40 p.m. - We can only assume that the voice that Mr. Heidstra heard was that of Ron Goldman and the responding voice was that of OJ Simpson. Going on that assumption, you can place Ron's murder between this ten minute time frame. Ron more than likely walked upon OJ murdering Nicole, being the type of man he was, he would have tried to stop it. When OJ realized that someone else was there, not only did the rage take over (with the thought of this man there to see Nicole, not returning glasses, but for other reasons) but he also knew he couldn't let this man walk away alive.
Approximately 10:30, 10:35: Robert Heidstra heard Nicole's dog barking.
10:40 p.m. - Simpson flee's the murder scene leaving his size 12 Bruno Magli bloody shoe print behind. In his rush to get away from the scene and return home, he blows a red stop light nearly running into the side of Jill Shivleys van, a resident of the same Brentwood neighborhood. She states that she was positive it was OJ Simpson she was nearly hit by, because he stuck his head clearly out the window an shouted, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Approximately 10:40: Heidstra saw Simpson's Bronco speed away from the crime scene.
Approximately 10:40: Jill Shively encountered Simpson's Bronco speeding with it's lights off. Shively made eye contact with the Bronco driver. She recognized and identified Simpson.
As she approached Bundy, the signal for her was green, but a white Bronco traveling with its lights out came from the south on Bundy into the intersection, and Shively had to make an emergency application of her brakes and swerve to the right to avoid a collision; the Bronco also swerved. The Bronco came to a stop on Bundy in the middle of the median width. It was unable to proceed because a 2-door light gray Nissan in the westbound lanes of San Vicente had also stopped, and was blocking his way. The man in the Bronco "started yelling at the guy in the Nissan to move his car." Thereupon began an "After you Alfonse" confusion between the drivers of the Bronco and the Nissan. Just as the Bronco tried to get around the front of the Nissan, it pulled forward. Then the Bronco backed up and tried to get around the back of the Nissan, and the Nissan backed up. After three of these false starts, the Bronco driver made a maneuver implying that he was going to drive up on the grassy median and completely outflank the Nissan, no matter what it did, but at that moment the Nissan drove away. The Bronco then proceeded north across San Vicente and disappeared up Bundy to the north. Shively testified, "He was going fast because you could hear like the engine was kind of zooming, 'Whoom, Whoom.' He was really moving." Shively estimates that the time the Bronco was in the intersection to be about a minute. Of the Nissan driver, Shively told the Grand Jury, "He looked angry at first [before Simpson started yelling at him], but then he looked scared, because someone -- he was like a maniac, someone gone crazy or something..." During the time when he was angry, the Nissan driver did not show an inclination to move his car, but after he became frightened, he began the frantic, but initially unsuccessful, maneuvers to get out of the Bronco's way. The following exchange then occurred: CLARK: So, were you able to see the driver [of the Bronco] very clearly? SHIVELY: I recognized him right away. CLARK: And, who was he? SHIVELY: I saw O. J. Simpson.
Approximately 10:52: Kato Kaelin heard noises on the back wall of his room.
This photograph, Figure 13, taken from Simpson's video tape, "O.J. Simpson, The Interview" (1996) is courtesy of Dick Wagner. Simpson is shown standing on the small path behind Kato Kaelin's room where Kaelin testified he heard noises on his wall. Simpson is demonstrating that the noises Kaelin heard might have been from someone pounding on his back wall. This is contradicted by what Kaelin testified to and is even disputed by Simpson's own defense team. • Notice the top of the fence. Some bent wires bend inwards. These may very well have been caused by Simpson's weight when he put his foot on the top of that fence to scale it.
*10:55: Allan Park saw Simpson enter the front door of his house. Park sees lights go on in the house.
10:55 p.m. - A neighbor of Nicole's finds her Akita unattended with bloody paws, stomach and neck. He takes the dog home with him, not sure who he belongs to, he calls the police department. Another neighbor takes the dog home, but it remains agitated.
11:10 p.m. - Simpson exits the Rockingham house with 5 bags. Kato helps load the bags into the limo. OJ hastily stops him as Kato is reaching for a moon shaped bag that he recalls is very full. Simpson tells Kato that he'll take care of that bag himself.
12:10 a.m. - Nicole's dog leads her neighbor to the murder scene where he describes what he saw as "blood flowing like a river."
5:15 a.m. - 5:30 a.m. - Detectives and police examine what would later be proven to be blood stains on Simpson's Bronco and blood stains leading away from the location. They attempt to contact the people in the house. When that fails they call Westec Security (Simpson's security people). Westec dispatches two cars to the location, they also give police the phone number into the location. After examining the blood and failed attempts to get any person on the phone inside the house, they determine that there may be an emergency situation and climb the fence.
6:00 a.m. - OJ is contacted in Chicago and inform him of his wife's tragic death. Officer Lange notes the strange behavior of Simpson. At hearing of his wife's death Simpson exhibited an unusual demeanor. He reacted with what could only barely termed "mild shock". Detective Lange would later state his suspicions about OJ's demeanor. In over 20 years on the force, Lange had investigated well over 100 murders. The family of the victims would more usually than not, react with much more emotion than Simpson displayed. Along with the emotional out pouring, they would always asked the standard questions, who, what ,when, where and why. Simpson asked none of these questions but told officers he would return home. During this time, Kato tells police about the loud thumping he heard the night before and Det. Fuhrman walks down the path to investigate. Fuhrman goes no where else on the property and officers don't investigate any other area's of the estate. In the area behind Kato's bungalow, adjacent to the air conditioning unit, they find the now famous bloody glove, presumed, later proven, to match the glove left at the Bundy scene.
