Kato the ‘House Guest’ Not the Dog

A D.A. witness

Talks a lot, but says nothing.

What does Kato know?

3/21/95

And who among those who followed the Simpson murder trial, could forget Simpson (loosely labeled) house guest, Kato Kaelin? Or figure out what he was all about? Or get over the unbelievable coincidence that Kato was also the name of Simpson’s murdered ex-wife, Nicole Brown’s, dog? Or was that a coincidence?

Although Kaelin’s fame, such as it was, persists, the one mention in Anatomy had to do with cameras in the courtroom.

“Whether cameras substantially affect trial participants’ behavior remains open to debate. … at least one witness, Kato Kaelin, appeared to treat his turn on the witness stand like an audition,” I wrote.
