Page 100: Marc Eliot say's---Finally, and perhaps most shocking, Kato's admission of having gone behind the house, to the pathway where he believed he heard a prowler, establishes, for the first time, a third person in close proximity to the still-unexplained "bloody glove." There is of course the person who dropped it. ----Now there is also Kato Kalin, who admits to having gone unaccompanied to the immediate vicinity where the glove was eventually found,(emphasized)hours before the police first arrived. The implications of Kato's "spontaneous investigation" continue to loom large in the realm of the as-yet-unreconcible series of increasingly bizarre facts that surrund the O>J> Simpson murder trial. Perhaps even more unbelievably, this was not the first time Kato had been on that pathway. Just two weeks before the murder, during Memorial Day weekend, Arnelle and Jason had thrown a party, during which Arnelle twice locked herself out of her guest house. Inexplicably, both times she asked, of all those there, Kato, one of the physically largest people, to go behind her quarters, on the pathway, and climb into her room through the open window to get her keys. Kato was, therefore,not only familiar with the area that was to play such a crucial role in the entire trial, but had been there on at least three separate occasions, prior to Mark Fuhrman. At least twice Kato was close enough to the actual area where the glove was found to have trampled the grounds, and climbed through the window of the adjoining guest house. That none of this has been brought up in court is nothing less than shocking.
ALSO ON PAGE 239: Ron Shipp was and ex-cop who used to visit the house quite often with friends to play tennis. Sometimes Ron would be on the tennis courts with three friends, and O J nowhere in sight. Shipp got to know the ends and outs of the house. He discovered, for example, that the Ashford gate had a latch that could be opened from the outside. Kato often used it to let himself in when he'd come home late. He preferred using this method because the Rockingham gate worked electronically and had a slow, lumbering motion, which meant having to wait until it completely opened, and then completely shut. On a cold night with O J dog barking at his feet, it wasn't the most pleasant way to pass five or ten minutes.
Interesting?
