Some 13 hours after the murders, simpson returned to la from chicago, a journey that took him from household name to you never thought of him as a killer . No, no, no. And had a great personality. Ow, being o. J. Simpson. Bad enough that simpson might be involved in the murder of her now kris was further conflicted because her former husband, Robert Kardashian, was simpsonsl attorney. Kardashian was also at rockingham and was caught on camera carrying what appeared to be simpsons garment bag. About what might have been in that bag. Could you conceive of him loving his friend so much that he wouldpose of evidence . Absolutely not. 150 that he had this character and integrity and christian values and believed in o. J. , what can you say about this . Dont know anything . Reporter detectives now wanted to bring in simpson for attorney, howard weitzman, said his client would fully cooperate. Hes shocked, he had nothing to do with this tragedy. Er arriving at Police Headquarters, simpsons lawyers met privately with him and then went to lunch. Leaving their client alone with cide detectives Phil Vannatter and tom lange. I was flabbergasted. Unless he just thinks hes glib y anything he wants and hes gonna get around us.

Eporter parker center. In 1994, Police Headquarters in downtown l. A. It has seen scores of high profile murder investigations errogations, but on that june afternoon, very narcissistic, selfassured. At all times. Reporter cops were drawn to a cut on simpsons left middle finger, and this is where simpsons answers started becoming more vague. Your hand . Know. Not the first time, when i was in chicago and all, but at the house i was just running around. How did you do it in chicago . Ss. One of you guys had just called me, and i was in the bathroom, and i just kind of went bonkers for a little bit. Is that how you cut it . I think i just opened it again, im not sure. His house. Now simpson offered a few new details to help explain it. So do you recall bleeding at all . Yeah, i mean, i knew i was bleeding, but it was no big deal. Time. I play golf and stuff, so theres always something, nicks and stuff here and there. We dont know what direction this is gonna take us. But theres enough that, i want your blood.

Reporter by now, simpson appeared to be sensing trouble and attempted to straighten out i know im the number one target, and now you tell me ive got blood all over the place. There . If its dripped, its what i dripped running around trying to leave. N after just 32 minutes, detectives wrapped up their interview and whisked simpson to a lab where he was ger photographed and most importantly, his blood drawn. If this guy is our suspect, convict him. At the core of this case is blood, blood everywhere. That we want in his body. Mr. Simpson are you a suspect . Now, simpson was allowed to leave. Anything you can tell us . Reporter that may have been a measure of his celebrity, or that police had suspicions they dnt yet back up. But back at simpsons estate more evidence was turning up, including a pair of bloody socksloor. And at the crime scene itself, more blood drops were swabbed alley, suggesting the killer wass he fled. W have now videotape showing the bodies of simpsons exwife and an unidentified man as they oved from a walkway in front of her west side condominium. Reporter monitoring all of this from her office at the criminal courts building was deputy d. A. D not yet been officially assigned the case. Did you campaign to be put on this case . At that time, it was just another big case. Did in special trials. We handled high profile murder cases. That was it. Its a good case, so of course, did i want it for fame and fortune . Hell, no reporter all that day n following the news reports about those murders in brentwood. He had no idea how much or in fe was about to change. Because when fred got home, he and his wife received a phone coroners office. And this individual said to today that nicole brown was well, your your son was the other person. Thats how we found out. Over the phone. And the two of us stood there reporter through his shock, fred knew he had to tell his daughter kim, who sensed something was wrong the minute she heard his voice on the phone. Nd he said, did you did you hear the news at all today . And i said, no, whats going on, dad . And then he just said that that ied and that ron was killed. I dont really remember too much after that. Reaming and he told me to get home. Reporter ron goldman was just 25. Handsome, athletic, popular. I love you very much and ill see you soon. Reporter this rare footage murder. Go ron, go ron, go ron reporter the goldmans didntuld be their last big celebration as a family. In june of 1994, ron had been restaurant, where nicole and her family had dined the night of the murder. Mother left her eyeglasses there, it was ron who later brought them to nicoles condo. And the lives of two families tied together forever in grief. I believe he walked into a crime in process. And he had a chance to walk away but he didnt. So he died trying to do the nd thats painful. Reporter as night descended on brentwood, o. J. Simpson was back at his estate. Anted to have a little chat to discuss meal. N, kaelin tells dateline, that had simpson suggesting a coverup. He had tried to tell me, you. You know i was in the kitchen at this time.
