Feeling the Navy had failed to keep its end of the bargain, she began formal proceedings against her ex-boss. The Navy proposed settling the case with a private punishment--perhaps a permanent written reprimand in Greene's personnel file.

He reported that no one answered when he rang at 10:42 p.m., a time verified by a phone call he then made to his boss. During the call, he says, he saw a black person about six feet tall enter the house--after which O.J. answered the intercom to say he had been sleeping. That contradicts the defense contention that O.J. had been hitting golf balls in his yard around that time--an alibi no witness...
