The jury in the O.J. Simpson armed robbery and kidnapping case made an unannounced visit to the scene of the alleged crime, at the Palace Station casino hotel.
Clark County District Attorney David Roger said Friday morning that Simpson did not make the trip, but his lawyers did.
The start of trial was postponed while the trip took place.
Court information officer Michael Sommermeyer says he selected a reporter, photographer and videographer to cover the visit after the Palace Station said it would allow just three people to accompany the 12 jurors, six alternates, prosecutors, lawyers and court officials.
Sommermeyer also made the trip.
He says it was arranged late Thursday night.
It was not announced to the public or media at the courthouse until after it occurred.
