Griffin now questioning Croft on "I/they" recording.
A lot going on rn. Want to capture this accurately. Stand by.
Griffin really pummeled Croft on the stand there, by my estimation. Challenges Croft on why he didn't ask Alex what he meant if he really heard "I," why he didn't make a written note of it, etc.
Now we're hearing the audio again.
Played it twice in real-time. Now playing it at one-third speed.
On the third play-through, at one-third speed, I clearly hear it as "they." Griffin asks Croft if he hears "they" as well this time. “No sir, I did not," Croft says. They agree the jury can make up its own mind.
Earlier, Griffin asked Croft: “Are you 100 percent confident that Alex said ‘I did him so bad’ rather than ‘they did him so bad.’” Croft: "I’m 100 percent confident” that’s what I heard.
Griffin: “What did you do in response to that?” Croft: “I made a mental note on it, of it.” Says SLED didn't have enough info to challenge Alex at the time. Griffin says asking for clarification isn't "challenging" him.
