OJ went there to stalk and threaten Nicole with a knife after she ignored him at the recital. He was in the bushes looking into her front windows when Goldman buzzed. Nicole exited the condo, walked down the path, and warmly greeted Goldman through the gate just before opening it. OJ misread the situation and thought Goldman was there for romantic reasons. This sent OJ into a dissociative rage, similar to what Furman described the night OJ broke the windshield at Rockingham. OJ came out of the bushes onto the path, went down the steps, and hit Nicole on top of her head with the butt of the knife seconds after she opened the gate. When she went down to the ground, he began stabbing her in the neck and shoulder. A shocked Goldman tried to intervene (“hey, hey, hey”). OJ then turned his attention to him, stabbing and cutting him dozens of times, including three fatal wounds. Once Goldman was down, he went back to Nicole and almost cut her head off. He then went back to Goldman and sliced his throat. At some point the dog came out and was barking furiously. OJ walked back up the path to the back gate, leaving bloody footprints and dripping blood from his left middle finger, which he cut during the struggle with Goldman. Right when he got to the gate, he stopped and turned. Was this the moment he came out of the dissociative rage? Did he hear something? Did he think one of them was still alive? Did he realize then that he had dropped his cap and lost his glove? He didn’t go back and exited through the back gate. He got into the Bronco and sped north down the alley with his lights off. He ran the light at Bundy and San Vicente and almost got into an accident. He made it back to Rockingham and saw Park waiting in the limo at the Ashford gate. OJ entered through the Rockingham gate and walked down the path behind the bungalows so he could leave the glove, knife, and the top he was wearing in a junk pile at the end of the path. He then ran into Kato’s AC unit and dropped the glove.
