Two forensics experts have confirmed that the screaming heard on the 911 audio tape was not that of George Zimmerman. Tom Owen, forensic consultant with Owen Forensic Services, LLC told the Orlando Sentinel that Zimmerman is ruled out as the person heard screaming on the night that Trayvon Martin was shot.
Zimmerman has been claiming that he was the one screaming during the shooting and that he shot Martin in self-defense. Owen said that according to the software he used, there was only a 48 percent match between the voice of Zimmerman and the one heard on the 911 tapes. But normally, he said a 90 percent match would be expected, based on the quality of the audio.
“As a result of that, you can say with reasonable scientific certainty that it’s not Zimmerman,” Owen told the Sentinel.
Owen could not confirm that the voice was Trayvon’s since he did not have a recording of his voice. A second expert, Ed Primeau, did an independent analysis and also concluded that the voice on the audio was not that of Zimmerman.
“I believe that’s Trayvon Martin in the background, without a doubt,” Primeau told the newspaper. “That’s a young man screaming.”
