The case presented is the infamous and unsolved murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman (OJ Simpson). Your class project will consist of the forensic collection, examination, and submission of evidence you've identified. After careful examination and analysis, you will weigh the evidentiary value of what you found and decide the outcome of your case.

Incorporate all of the feedback you received from the first two parts of the project. Next, add the final pieces:

• Present your case investigation from the crime scene to its final disposition.
  • If your case made the prosecutorial level, present your expert testimony to the court.
  • If your case remains unsolved, report on your theories as to who you feel committed the crime and your reasoning as to why the evidence is insufficient and the case will remain open.

Rockingham Ave. Upon arrival, we discovered Nicole Brown Simpson, the ex-wife of former NFL star O.J. Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman were found dead outside Nicole's condominium in the Brentwood district of Los Angeles, California. Nicole Brown Simpson was found unconscious in a bloody pool at the base of the stairs that led to her apartment. She had sustained several stab wounds to her neck and head, as well as defensive wounds on her hands. Ronald Goldman's body was discovered nearby in a fetal posture, with multiple stab wounds to his neck and body. Both victims died from multiple sharp force injuries, according to the coroner's report, which later concluded that the attack was extremely severe. Det. Washington found bloody paw prints at the front of the gate, along with bloody footprints leading to the house. This detective found an Envelope with glasses in front of Ronald Goldman's right foot; also found was one bloody black glove on the left foot of Mr. Goldman. On 06-13-24 at 0020hrs, we followed up at the home of Mr. O'J Simpson, and I found Bloodstains in O.J. Simpson's Ford Bronco and a trail of blood droplets flowing inside his house among the evidence gathered at the site. A single bloody glove was discovered at the O.J. Simpson home by Det. Washington and its corresponding match were found at the murder scene, and a pair of socks with bloodstains and a bloodstain shirt were in the bedroom closet. Due to these pieces of evidence, O.J. Simpson became a primary suspect very early-Officer C. Jones recovered the clothing of Ms. Simpson, consisting of a black dress, and Mr. Goldman consisting of a dark-colored shirt, pants, and shoes. He also wrote up the chain of custody formIncident Report 5-12-1994 / 2200HRS Homicide BA0S7211 M. SANTIAGO Follow up: The following procedures would probably be followed for every piece of evidence that was turned in to a crime lab to examine it Recognition and Categerization: In order to preserve a cham of custody, every piece of evidence iz logged and assigned a unique number when it arrives at the crime lab. Visual inspection: The first visual inspection aims to evaluate the evidence and search for any clear indications or traits that require additional investigation. Explanation: The following procedures would probably be followed for every piece of evidence that was turned in to a crime lab to examine it Recognition and Categorization: To preserve a chain of custody, every piece of evidence is logged and assigned a unique number when it arrives at the crime lab. Visual inspection: The first visual inspection aims to evaluate the evidence and search for any clear indications or traits that require additional investigation. Initial testing to ascertain the existence of specific substances, like blood, is known as a presumed test. Confirmatory Testing: If the presumed tests yield positive results, more precise testing is carried out to verify the existence and kind of substance (such as blood type or DNA). Comparative Analysis: To determine whether a match can be made, evidence that can be compared to known samplessuch as DNA, fingerprints, or shoe printsis examined. Analysis of Trace Evidence: Materials, like fibers from the black dress or glove that might have moved during the commission of a crime, are examined. Chemical Analysis: The presence of any poisons, drugs, or other compounds on the evidence is determined. Documentation: Detailed notes and photos are used to document every finding. Report Generation: A thorough report includes a summary of the approaches employed, the analysis carried out, and the conclusions derived from every piece of evidence. Investigation Status Report Case: BA097211 Date: June 12, 1004 Investigating Officer: Det. M. Santiago Subject: Crime Lab Analysis Results and Investigation Update Evidence Received for Analysis: Bloody paw print with photos and swabs. Nicole Simpson's clothing (black dress). Envelope with glasses. Ronald Geldman's clothing. One bloody black leather glove is next to Mr. Goldman. Bloody footprints lead to the house with photos and swabs One bloody black leather glove (Simpsen's home) Bloodstain Shirt. A pair of socks with bloodstain (Simpson's home). Bloodstains with photos and swabs (Simpson's home). Examination Results: Analysis confirmed that the bloodied paw print belonged to a dog. It was determined through DNA analysis to be a member of the Tibetan Mastiff, a rare breed that is registered to the suspect. Both Ronald Goldman's shirt and Nicole Simpson's black dress had bloodstains similar to their own, and under the garment's cuffs and on Goldman's collar, there were indications of the suspect's skin cells. The suspect's fingerprints were found on the envelope containing spectacles, showing it had been handled. With ene glove holding DNA from both victims, the twe bloody gloves have been linked to the suspect through DNA analysis It has been established that the bloody footprints correspond to the suspect's shoe size and brand, and they include traces of the same special leather dye that was discovered in the suspect's house. Blood that matched the DNA of both victims was found on the bloodstain shirt and socks that were discovered in Simpson's house. The socks also included fibers from the carpet at the crime scene. The blood stains from Simpson's house have a combination of the suspect's DNA and match Nicole Brown Simpson's DNA profile, indicating a fight. Update on the investigation: According to the forensic findings, there is a clear physical link between the suspect and the crime scene. The suspect's ownership of a rare breed of dog, the DNA found on the victims' clothing, and the corresponding bloody footprints all contribute to a strong connection that is impossible to ignore. The physical evidence 13 further supported by the revelation from additional interviews with the suspect's colleagues that he was observed wearing gloves that were exactly like the ones discovered in Simpson's home and at the crime scene. In summary, A growing body of forensic evidence points to the suspect having direct touch with the victims at the time of the murder. The possibility of someone else being involved is much reduced in light of the DINA results, the unique bloody footprints, and the fibers discovered on the clothing articles. The fact that the suspect is known to have worn the same style of shoes and gloves as those who left evidence at the crime site strengthens the case against him. Motive, opportunity, and potential accomplices are currently the main focus areas for the inquiry. On the other hand, the district attorney has been recommended to press charges against the suspect based on the available evidence. Detective M. Santiago, Badge No. 3892, is the investigating detective
