Judge Nelson has ruled in the Frye Hearing regarding the admissibility of the State’s audio “expert witnesses” Owens and Reich.

The Order has caught many people by surprise and her ruling is a potential game changer for the positioning of the State’s case.

Nelson has ruled that their testimony will be excluded, however, both sides can play the 9-11 tapes for the jury and both sides can call witnesses, if they choose, to affirm which party (Martin or Zimmerman) they feel was calling for “Help”.

The Miami Herald, hardly sympathetic to the Zimmerman position, reported the ruling as a “major blow to the prosecution”.

I like how this entire fiasco was explained by Letjusticeprevail:

1) We have a 911 recording that EVERY expert says is of such poor quality that it’s almost worthless to use for voice comparison purposes. The most credible ones actually say it IS totally worthless for voice comparison purposes.

2) Now, for over a year, we have had the junk science of Owen (and others) comparing a worthless 911 recording to ONLY George’s voice, and saying: “Hey, we can’t get a match”. which, in the minds of most people, equates to: “It isn’t George because they can’t match it to HIM”. So, the only other choice is: “It MUST be Trayvon Martin”.

BUT IT’S A SHELL GAME.

The 911 recording was worthless to begin with, so the EXPECTED result SHOULD BE: “We can’t match it to George Zimmerman’s voice exemplar”. They can’t get the match because the 911 recording is JUNK, not because it isn’t George screaming. But they won’t TELL it to you THAT way.

Remember now, keep your eye on the RIGHT LIE which (at this time) isn’t about WHO is screaming, but is about the simple fact that the 911 recording is JUNK to begin with—THAT is the PEA that they have palmed–the 911 recording is junk, but everyone’s attention has been diverted elsewhere.

They just simply say: “We can’t get a match” AND LET US (THE PUBLIC) ARRIVE AT THE TOTALLY ILLOGICAL CONCLUSION THAT IT MUST BE TRAYVON MARTIN screaming.

They let US make this “LEAP OF ILLOGIC”. And it has worked on the public for over a year, simply because the public reached this conclusion by themselves, and created the very LIE that the state wanted, WITHOUT THE STATE EVER HAVING TO COME OUT AND SAY THE LIE THEMSELVES.

IT’S “OUR” LIE. “WE” OWN IT!!!! That’s WHY it was so easy for the state to do it.

This is exactly why Bernie was evasive in court when he said “It might be TWO people screaming on the tape”. He wasn’t trying to hide the number of voices on the 911 call. He wasn’t trying to hide the possibility that he might have evidence that it was George screaming.

HE WAS HIDING THE PEA THAT HE DIDN’T WANT ANYONE TO FIND IN HIS PALM: THE 911 RECORDING IS WORTHLESS FOR VOICE COMPARISON PURPOSES.

Now think back to just yesterday, to something Mantei said in court:

“Do you think (that if the defense had an expert who could say this was George Zimmerman screaming) they would be trying to have the voice comparisons excluded?”

That is just MORE slight of hand. Mantei is continuing the SHELL GAME. He is diverting the public’s attention AWAY FROM THE PEA IN HIS PALM. He KNOWS the defense can’t find an HONEST expert who will say it is George’s voice, so he IMPLIES that the reason they can’t is because it wasn’t George, but he REALLY KNOWS that the reason the defense can’t find an expert to say it was George screaming is because NO HONEST EXPERT WOULD EVER SAY THIS. Why? Look for the PEA in Mantei’s palm! The 911 recording is junk!

And, from the aspect of pure and simple logic:

You CANNOT “reverse engineer” the conclusion that it was person B screaming in the 911 recording, just by saying that you can’t “get a match” when comparing the voice exemplar of person A to a tape that has no value for comparison. This is NOT a case of “Well, if we can’t prove it IS “A” then it MUST be “B”.

Yes, there were only two people on the dogwalk. “A” and “B”
Yes, IF only one was screaming, then it MUST be either “A” or “B”
BUT, in order to PROVE it is “B” you MUST do one of two things:

You must either prove it actually IS “B”—which (here) means Voice sample B=911 sample

OR

You must PROVE it was NOT “A”—which (here) means Voice sample A does NOT=911

Since the public (at that time) had no sample of “B” (Trayvon Martin’s voice) the state could PRETEND to use the second approach, but actually KNEW they could not PROVE it “wasn’t George”, so they tried to trick the public by letting people think that “not being able to prove it IS George” is the same thing as “proving it wasn’t George”.

Now here’s the funny about the “logic” approach. In THIS SHELL GAME, there are actually TWO PEAS!

First, there is the same palmed pea that I mentioned above: The 911 recording is junk.

And the SECOND PEA is the actual voice sample of Trayvon Martin. This pea is equally important for the state to hide, but NOT for the reason you might think. The state was not hiding that voice sample because it would reveal that it was or was not Trayvon Martin screaming in the 911 call.

The state was hiding that sample because they knew that, just like George’s sample, Trayvon’s sample would ALSO not be matched to the 911 call. Why not?

Just look for the pea in Bernie’s palm: The 911 recording is junk. And once the public started to realize this, Bernie’s entire SHELL GAME would be exposed!

THAT is why the state NEVER EVEN ASKED THE MARTIN’S FOR A VOICE SAMPLE. The state didn’t need one.

Hell, the state didn’t WANT one.

Their SHELL GAME was working perfectly. WE (the public) took ownership of the lie by taking a “leap of illogic”, and the production of a voice sample from Trayvon could only expose the pea in their palm, and expose their game.
