The results of the interviews were not released. First on the stand for the prosecution today was evidence technician Andrea Mazzola, the assistant to criminalist Dennis Fung. Mazzolacollected most of the blood evidencein the Simpson case, and the defense is expected to question her lack of experience. In her testimony Mazzola denied a defense allegation that she contaminated blood samples by handling them without gloves, saying that criminalists always wear gloves for fear of AIDS and other diseases.
