The Investigation of the Double Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson
The Investigation of the Double Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman As a crime scene investigator, there are duties that have to be met and a job that has to get done. Part of this job includes putting together reliable evidence, and making a list of suspects. As an investigator my job as of right now, is to find evidence to use against Orenthal James Simpson in the prosecution of the murder of his wife Nicole Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. On June 12, 1994, around 10:15 P.M., Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were brutally murdered at her house on 875 S. Bundy in Brentwood, California (Linder). O.J. Simpson, the ex-husband of Nicole, is our prime suspect due to the amount of evidence we have collected from his home, the crime scene, and his interviews.

After the dance recital Nicole and her family went to the restaurant Mezzaluna, while O.J. returned to his house (Linder).

Also, he claims he and a man renting a room from him, by the name of Kato Kaelin made a quick trip to McDonalds (Simpson). After returning from McDonalds, around 9:45 P.M., Kato and Simpson went their separate ways. Simpson was scheduled to leave for an 11:45 P.M. flight to Chicago. While he was waiting for his scheduled limo driver, Allan Park, Simpson explains he was packing for his trip, however he also informed us that he was sleeping (Simpson). Allan Park explained to us that at around 10:22 to 10:30 P.M. Simpson’s white bronco was not parked anywhere around his Rockingham residence. At 10:40 P.M., 10:43 P.M., and 10:49 P.M., Park claims to have buzzed O.J.’s intercom several times, but received no
