Jolana,
People are often off by an hour or more in their estimate of time. That's a fact - a fact well known to homicide detectives. In arguing for a "more flexible timeline" Fuhrman was perfectly willing to expand the possible time the killing could have occurred from 9:40 to 10:50. In other words, as small margin of error in Juditha's estimate of when she last talked to Nicole works for Fuhrman.
The person who said "Hey! Hey! Hey!" had to be the active killer. The persons arguing back in "a deeper, older-sounding voice" had to be the lookout bursting in on him. According to Robert Heidstra, the voices he heard were definitely male voices and they argued back and fourth for fifteen or twenty seconds. He heard the argument about FIVE MINUTES AFTER he and Denise Pilnak said they heard the first dog (Nicole's Akita) begin to bark "hysterically."
Heidstra said that he heard the "Hey! Hey! Hey!" immediately AFTER he heard the second dog began to bark. The phone record and the computer time record of Denise Pilnak could not have been faked and perfectly coordinated with Robert Heidstra's. Up to the point where Heidstra heard the Akita barking in a way that scared the hell out of him, he had been following the same dog-walking routine for so long that he couldn't have been off in his estimate of the time by more than a minute or so.
Something way out of the ordinary must have been going on in the five minutes between the time the first dog began to bark "hysterically" and the second dog joined in. Whatever it was, it was part of a traumatic continuing event for Kato-the-Akita that had never happened before because no one had ever heard him bark that way and that long before.
There is no way that either Ron or Nicole could have argued with the killer for that long and I cannot imagine why they would have if it were possible-beginning five minutes into the attack. That fact that they were attacked at the same time is absolutely conclusive to anyone familiar with the stun technique and the autopsy report on the blunt force injury to Nicole's skull. The time between that injury and the one that took her life was at least five minutes, according to Michael Baden. The rate of blood flow from Ron's neck wound to his shirt and pants indicate that he, too, was alive between his first cut and the finishing thrust to his side. He had to have been on his feet for at least that long but there is no way he could have fought for that long.
Ron could not have put up any kind of fight, but the make it look as though he did it was necessary for the killer to keep him on his feet long enough to make it appear on the autopsy report that he must have. Mark Fuhrman's background and style are all over the evidence on this timeline. So is his SUV (heading south on Bundy), his false alibis and his partner Brad Roberts, with his smaller shoe and his "deeper, older sounding voice." --Jasper
