Judge Lance Ito ruled that theO.J. Simpson jurywill be allowed to see the gruesome autopsy photos of Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman. The judge ruled over the objections of defense attorney Robert Shapiro that the pictures would cause "revulsion and horror" and unfairly inflame jurors. Prosecutors had long contended that the photos, which graphically illustrate how the victims were killed, were essential to their case. It is not yet known when the prosecution will present the pictures to the jury, which slogged through yet another day of often tedious DNA testimony from criminalist Collin Yamauchi.
