...murder trial provided armchair lawyers with a week of high courtroom drama as Detective Mark Fuhrman coolly parried defense attorney F. Lee Bailey's taunting cross-examination. Fuhrman repeatedly denied having made racist statements; he also denied suggestions that he planted a bloody glove on Simpson's estate to frame the football hero. The high stakes prompted Bailey and prosecutor Marcia Clark to trade playground-ready insults, leading Judge Lance Ito to ask for an apology from each attorney and to order them not to "engage in gratuitous personal attacks upon each other."

The LAPD detective continued to insist that he had not framed O.J., nor had he ever used word "nigger" in a conversation with anyone. But when Bailey asked, "Didn't it seem strange to you that after seven and a half hours that glove still showed moist, sticky blood, Detective Fuhrman?" Fuhrman hesitated and appeared at a loss for words...
