Question

the scene: it was late the night of june 12, 1994 when a blood stained white dog was found wandering the streets of an affluent neighborhood in los angeles california. when neighbors went to investigate the dog led them to a house on bundy drive where it’s owner, nicole brown simpson was found dead in a pool in of blood outside the home, 911 was called and the saga that followed was one of the most closely watched murder investigations of all time.
once a police perimeter was established the scene was searched and the body of 25 year old ronald goldman was also found in the small front walkway of the home. the number one suspect in the case was the ex husband of nicole brown, oj simpson, an american football star and pop culture icon. he had a history of abuse against nicole and his alibi seemed weak.
the case: to an outsider the case against oj simpson seemed concrete. his dna was found in blood drops, at the crime scene (only 0.5% of the population could have matched). the blood drops at the scene were made by an injury to the left hand of the perpetrator. oj had a fresh cut on his left hand which he gave varying explanations for.

Sub - question 3

From the text, we know that Nicole Brown Simpson was found dead and Ronald Goldman (25 years old) was also found dead at the scene on Bundy Drive. So we count the number of victims.

Step 1: Identify the victims from the text

The text says "Nicole Brown Simpson was found dead... the body of 25 year old Ronald Goldman was also found".

Step 2: Count the number of victims

There are two victims: Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.

We look for the evidence related to OJ Simpson in the given text.

Step 1: Find the relevant part of the text

In the "The Case" section, it says "His DNA was found in blood drops, at the crime scene (only 0.5% of the population could have matched). The blood drops at the scene were made by an injury to the left hand of the perpetrator. OJ had a fresh cut on his left hand which he gave varying explanations for."

Step 2: List the evidence

1. His DNA was found in blood drops at the crime scene (with a very low match probability of 0.5% of the population).
2. The blood drops at the scene were from an injury to the left hand of the perpetrator, and OJ had a fresh cut on his left hand (with varying explanations for the cut).
