...this." With these words, his voice cracking with emotion, Judge Lance Ito recused himself from ruling on tapes in whichDetective Mark Fuhrmanverbally attacked Ito's wife, Los Angeles police Captain Margaret York. Another judge will now be assigned the task of determining if a screenwriter's interviews of Fuhrman, in which he insults York (his former boss), says he is essential to the prosecution's case, and boasts of his expertise in manipulating criminal evidence, are relevant toO.J. Simpson's defense. ButTIME's James Willwerthnotes that "Fuhrman has been diagnosed by psychologists as narcissistic, and has an inflated view...

...Life Interrupted, which has sold about a million copies in book and audio form; I Know You Want to Tell Me, But I Really Don't Want to Know, a spoof of Simpson's own literary efforts; a work-in-progress by embattled Los Angeles police detective Mark Fuhrman; and The Private Diary of an O.J. Juror by dismissed juror Michael Knox. But Viner, who was subpoenaed by Judge Lance Ito last week to answer accusations that the Knox book reveals too much about the Simpson jurors, insists he is performing a public service. The dismissed juror's memoir, which...
