Reading some articles online, I came across this gem from HLN:
Quote:
[Judge] has ruled in favor of the defense with a most crucial ruling granting the defense's motion to keep out the state's audio expert who would have testified that it was Trayvon Martin screaming for help on the 911 tape before he was killed. That expert testimony was expected to be a cornerstone of the State's case.

Wow. What a train wreck. Now it all makes sense. The reason the Pros case has been so weak is because they put all their money on the hopes that a 2-second audio clip could be deciphered as being TM screaming for help.
Remember, the so-called "expert" the Pros used was some dude in his home office, partly using his own program he makes money selling and partly using Sony Sound Forge, which can be bought at your local Best Buy.
The "scientific" process he used was listening to the audio, cleaning it up with one of the programs, then
he would type in what he thought he heard into the Sound Forge program and see if the program confirmed if that's what it thinks was said or not.
The Judge rightly denied his testimony because it was no better than some tween sitting in his bedroom with Apple's GarageBand, listening to distorted audio that not even the FBI could decipher, and claiming to know what was said.
