June 12, 1994. Just past midnight, a Brentwood woman walking her dog discovered two bodies on the walkway outside 875 South Bundy Drive. The first was Nicole Brown Simpson, 35, the ex-wife of NFL Hall of Famer O.J. Simpson. The second was Ronald Goldman, 25, a Mezzaluna restaurant waiter who had come by to return a pair of eyeglasses Nicole's mother had left at his workplace. Both had been stabbed to death. LAPD Detective Mark Fuhrman was among the first officers on scene. He walked the perimeter. He noticed a single bloody leather glove near a rear fence. He memorised the killer's shoeprints. He knew whose house was two miles away.

Later that same morning, four LAPD detectives — Ronald Phillips, Tom Lange, Philip Vannatter, and Mark Fuhrman — drove to O.J. Simpson's Rockingham estate to notify him of his ex-wife's death. They found his white Ford Bronco parked outside the property, with what appeared to be blood on the door handle. They climbed the perimeter wall. Fuhrman found a second bloody leather glove behind the guest house. It matched the glove at the Bundy Drive murder scene. The detectives had not yet obtained a search warrant. The glove had already been photographed in place. The Brentwood crime scene was no longer only on Bundy Drive. It was now also at Rockingham.

While Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman's bodies were still being processed by the LAPD, O.J. Simpson was on American Airlines Flight 668, a red-eye from Los Angeles to Chicago. He had boarded shortly before 11:45 p.m. on June 12 — hours after the killings. He was in first class. He was carrying a small black bag he would not permit any flight attendant to touch. He arrived in Chicago at 5:30 a.m. and checked into the O'Hare Plaza Hotel. He would be notified of Nicole's death by phone at approximately 6:00 a.m. He flew back to LA on the first available flight.

June 13, 1994. LAPD Central Division. O.J. Simpson agreed to be interviewed by Detectives Vannatter and Lange. The questioning lasted 32 minutes. He provided three different accounts of how he had cut his left middle finger. He could not explain the blood in his Bronco. He could not account for his whereabouts between 9:45 p.m. and 10:55 p.m. on the night of the killings. He was not arrested. He walked out of the front doors of Parker Center. Television cameras caught him on the steps. The next time he left a public building, he would leave in handcuffs.

June 17, 1994. The LAPD had obtained enough evidence to charge O.J. Simpson with two counts of first-degree murder. His attorney Robert Kardashian was told to bring him in by 11:00 a.m. or the LAPD would send a tactical team. The deadline came. Simpson did not appear. Kardashian did not know where he was. Detectives arrived at the Rockingham estate to find both Simpson and his longtime friend Al Cowlings missing. A search of Simpson's guest bedroom found a letter he had written the previous night — a farewell letter — along with $8,000 in cash, a fake beard, a passport, and a loaded revolver.
