> I think the whole point being missed (or purposely overlooked by the RST) is that there is a THIRD voice on the tape.

Well, Steve Thomas says there is a third voice. Steve Thomas also says voices number one and two are there. We already know ST testified he had no knowledge of any attempt to acquire exemplars from Burke in order to positively ID his "voice."

I'm going to leap to the conclusion that no exemplars were collected from John and Patsy to positively ID their "voices" either.

When you get right down to it, the issue is not if a THIRD voice is on the tape, but if there are ANY voices on the tape that have anything to do with this case. We don't know that what the lab extracted and blew up wasn't a partially erased remnant of an old telephone solicitation recorded months before the night of the murder.
