The prosecution’s DNA case against O.J. Simpson wound down Thursday as attorneys hopscotched around earlier testimony and asked a prosecution scientist to clarify, verify and elaborate. Gary Sims, a criminalist with the state Department of Justice, answered follow-up questions from attorneys for both sides about his examination of blood from socks found at the foot of Simpson’s bed, Simpson’s Ford Bronco and the glove found at the condominium where Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were killed on June 12. When Sims’ testimony wound up shortly before noon, the DNA phase of the trial was put on hold for a while so prosecutors can call the Los Angeles County coroner and the medical examiner who conducted the autopsies on the victims.
