trial day 47: the defense continues its case in chief #142

[wenwe4]

TA's left eye . . tell us what we see . . . enhanced to 72 dpi stock from the camera - has to do with printer . . .output format

based on this what can we see? any conclusions from this?

reflection from the cornea - interesting if not in the mid of the pupil - would not get this photo . . . camera being fired from this position . . choratic ?

fairly low . . . can you recognize person taking photo? no there is not enough pixels per inch . . . but someone taking a picture about chest high . . . don't know the height of TA and don't know height of TA so purely speculative.

same image only it has been taken up to 2280 dpi - easier to work with. . .

in clear id . . .on digital camera - notice one white dot - dead pixel . . . go thru and see if there are any bad pixels to blow it up . . . went thru each channel . . . didn't find any dead pixels -

exhibit #3 - admitted for this hearing only

resolution of the monitor . . . in his lab it is 2x the resolution . . .
up resed to 2880 dpi - no bad pixels . . .more latitude working pixel by pixel . . .

someone has a mole could be a dot on their face - from bad pixel - make sure no dead pixels . . didn't look @ entire picture - just part of pupil area. . .

based on this do you begin to see more in this picture?
yes but I was able to trace what I could see in the lab - I did rough outline what I could see in the lab.

then in that outline . . . exhibit #4 purposes of this hearing
same photo with outlines referred to.move to admit #4
admitted for this hearing

witness steps down an changes picture again . . JA looks on and whispers to her Atty

Image on screen looks to be a human figure on his equipment . . .person holding a camera . . . this outline . . . only thing changed was the brightness (light level) . . .

black values drop out first - in order to trace more clearly - he enhanced the brightness -nothing fancy.

too much light on the subject - white values tend to bloom - blown out face and hair

2880 dpi . . . further enhancement make to photo?
cleaner but very good chance I could creating an image vs. enhancing.

if I go any further . . . . I went up to 7000 dpi - didn't see advantage
I did pixel stacking - yes I could see a little more but I don't think it would be good evidence.

 

[Ladylub]

Seems like this is pointless to me. We all know that the eyes reflect imagines. So of course Travis' eye would show the person taking the picture.

 

[megmono]

id fall off my bed if the judge calls for a field trip to the lab so we can really see whats up

 

[tisamystery]

Is this guy being paid?

 

[Softail]

This is so silly. Really a stretch. I see an eye, and someone took white to outline the inside of it.

 

[Kajaa24]

In this the 'expert' is correct, by enhancing or even trying more and more, to 'redo' the original - one can easily create....
so what was this about?

 

[Arishia]

What was the point of that?

 

[VictimsSide]

Oh No - not the edification word again!!!

 

[MandyLeigh]

Mmmkay.....

Am I on earth?

 

[elementary]

How does any of this go to self-defence?

 

[UESwifey]

Juan!

 

[corundogs]

WTF??? Did this guy just use the edification word??

I have never even HEARD this word until this trial...now we have expert witnesses using it? LMAO!

Guess I need to edify myself with more vocabulary!

 

[StephanieHartPI]

Ok? So if there is a figure there, could it be Jodi who admitted to killing Travis while holding a camera in her fake photo shoot?

I'm not a rocket scientist by any means, but we have a confession...killer stalker, in bathroom, killed Travis?

Ok I solved the mystery of the figure in the eye.. Jodi

 

[tinkabella]

The man just said this is not good evidence. I don't understand whats going on. Why does Nurmi do this?

 

[gauntlet]

I've got it! He will testify that the image has captured The Fog!

Perfect!!

 

[susan1122]

Nurmi's silhouette looks like Alfred Hitchcock. Appropriate considering the Psycho likenesses of the crime scene photos.

 

[JusticeJunkie]

ETIFICATION ?????? Has he been talking to JA??

 

[nursebeeme]

So, looks like Jodi to me. WHY are we doing this??

with the elbows raised at that! Like getting ready to stab him! Not sure how this helps the defense at all

 

[websurfer]

Ok smart people here? What is this supposed to prove?

 

[callyn]

Can someone explain how this could help the defense?
