Analyzed plaintiff’s tape on behalf of defendant and proved that the recording had been entirely fabricated by plaintiff. The conversation which plaintiff alleged demonstrated unfair labor practices by defendant never took place. The Court dismissed the case after reviewing our report.

GRIFFIN v NYNEX, et al
Plaintiff’s recordings of his work environment were alleged to be altered copies by a defense “expert”. Our examination showed numerous flaws in the procedures and conclusions of the defense expert, after which the defense objections to the tapes were shown to be without merit.

STEPHANIE ODOM-LEE v LIPSCOMB OIL et al
Plaintiff alleged harassment in work environment and produced audio recordings in support of claim. Analysis revealed normal work-related conversations, which plaintiff had altered in an attempt to incriminate employer.

MISSISSIPPI v STEVE STRICKLER
A motorist on cocaine resisted arrest and struggled with several officers who were attempting to extract him from vehicle and restrain him. Suspect was later found dead in the jail and the officers were charged with manslaughter. Using the police radio traffic recording and the video tape from cruiser’s dashboard camera, we created a real-time video program demonstrating that while on camera, the officers used appropriate non-lethal force and while off-camera, the officers didn’t have time to injure the suspect. Steve Strickler was acquitted on June 4, 2002.
