How Real Are The Mel Gibson Tapes?

Posted by | July 15, 2010 20:15 | Filed under: Top Stories


Some forensics experts are questioning whether recordings of Mel Gibson were tampered with. Oksana Grigorieva, Mel Gibson’s ex-girlfriend, says she didn’t release the tapes.

Forensic audio and video experts examined the recordings for HollywoodLife.com and believe someone tampered with them, editing the audio, removing parts of conversation and piecing together phrases to make the recordings sound real.

“One of the things that you have to know is that nobody at this point can authenticate it’s Mel’s voice — not 100 percent,” Bonnie Fuller, editor of HollywoodLife.com, said on “Good Morning America” today. “There are words that are edited out, there are spaces, there are gaps.”

“I believe these are professionally done. I think she had help,” said forensic audio expert Arlo West. “She clearly was speaking into what we call a large diaphragm microphone. Her voice is very well engineered. She sounds great.”

Gibson has yet to comment on the recordings.
