re: #14 Liberty Hedgehog (fka Freedom Alligator)

I will remain skeptical unless there are peer-reviewed studies that show that it applies to such situations. Or unless he gets a lot of other experts to agree with him. Just because it’s used by some forensic experts is not good enough for me, since historically there have been a lot forensic methods that were not really peer-reviewed and were not based on sound science.

Also, with probabilistic techniques one doesn’t necessarily exclude the other. If they compare with Trayvon’s voice and it also gets a low match, then it’s simply a case undecideable by this method.

The article cites two experts who independently came to the same conclusion, using different biometric analysis techniques.
