...Simpson murder trial turned briefly, but memorably, into a Cinderella-like spectacle as prosecutors sought a fit for the case's famous bloodied gloves. "They're too small," said Simpson as he struggled, at prosecutor Christopher Darden's behest, to pull the allegedly incriminating gloves over his hands-a turn of events that was widely perceived as a blunder for the prosecution. Darden quickly suggested Simpson was faking his difficulty, then solicited expert testimony that the blood-soaked leather gloves had shrunk...
...prosecutors say left bloody prints at the crime scene. Earlier in the trial, a Bloomingdale's buyer testified that the bloody glove found outside Simpson's house was made exclusively for her store. The state may, however, finally be ready to rest. Citing "a mountain of evidence," prosecutor Christopher Darden promised they would wrap of their case in early July...

Rosa Maria Lopez, a former housekeeper for a neighbor of O.J. Simpson, was expected to testify that Simpson's Bronco was parked at his home at the time the double-murder was committed. On the stand, Lopez first told the court that she had made a reservation to go to her native El Salvador because her private life has been severely disrupted as a result of harrassment by reporters...
