Do you have proof beyond a reasonable doubt?


Isn't 48% well beyond reasonable doubt?


In a court of law, it may well be. We aren't talking about picking out
an individual from the entire US population. We're only trying to
discriminate between two people.

What percentage of match is Zimmerman?


No, the comparison is between *one* person. Only Zimmerman's voice could be analyzed. The way I read
the article, there is only a 48% probability the voice is Zimmerman's, as opposed to the 90%+ that
would have been expected. That would imply a 52% probability the voice *is* Zimmerman's (the way I
read the article).
