Charlie,
You said it –an impression. Who do we know has developed creating impressions to a fine art? Doesn’t this get us back to the spot on the Bronco above the door handle?
How did drops of taco sauce or ketchup end up anywhere near O.J.'s three little blood drops clustered in the foyer? And how could they have gone from the foyer to the kitchen or vice versa? I read it somewhere but I can’t remember where or when (is it in the transcripts?). I didn’t think it mattered then. Now I do.
When Kato and O.J. left McDonalds, didn’t O.J. eat his hamburger in the Bentley? Let’s assume that he didn’t finish eating until he got in the house, or that the carton or wrapper he or Kato carried into the house was dripping sauce. Does it make sense then?
No.
Kato didn’t go into the main house. He went back to his bungalow. O.J. didn’t go back into the house through the foyer. He went back though the French doors near the garage leading to the kitchen. No one else was in the main house at the time. Can we assume that O.J. carried a leaky hamburger carton or wrapper from the kitchen to the foyer and then back to the kitchen to dispose of it? I don’t think so.
Sounds more to me like a detective came to Rockingham prepared with a packet or two of taco sauce (which gives a positive result for blood in a presumptive test) to create the impression of blood and to explain it away if it didn’t work.
If the person that Rosa Lopez heard going toward the garage when O.J. and Kato left for McDonalds was connected to the murders (missing golf club, three thumps, bleeding killer theory), how hard would it have been for him to pass on this information to the killer? Not hard at all if he was an expert in covert surveillance. He would have heard the conversation about where they were going and timed his actions accordingly.
There was also a big dumpster just inside of the Rockingham gate. The gate opener was missing and there was a gap in the foliage by the fence next to the dumpster, so a man could easily have gotten onto the property from the Salinger’s side without opening the gate. If Kato and O.J. threw the empty cartons into the dumpster, it wouldn’t have taken much to open the lid and look when they where safely inside the house. For Ron Shipp the risk would have been minimal. If someone had seen him on O.J.’s property, it would have been no more suspicious than if they had seen AC or any other “friend” of O.J.’s. To explain why he was looking in the dumpster, all he had to do was throw something in.
The bottom line is that a detective who was with Kato the morning after the killings had to be a part of the frame-up BEFORE the killing. Fuhrman could have known about the trip to McDonalds through a Rockingham lookout in several ways and used the taco sauce like the blood drops on Bundy to create an incriminating illusion that could be innocently explained if it didn’t work. –Jasper
