Forensic Speech and Audio Laboratory
Trials for multiple murders, including two police officers |
We were engaged to compare speakers in a number of recordings in this case, including the call made by Dale Cregan to the police to lure two police officers to a house where they were eventually murdered. We also analysed a call made after the shooting of two men in a pub. Dale Cregan eventually pleaded guilty, along with a group of his associates.
