Did Someone Mess With Mel Gibson's Audio Recordings?

Every day this week has come with a new, expletive-laced rant from Mel Gibson. Audio expert believes the taped phone conversations may have been altered.

In the latest recording released by RadarOnline, he berates ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of their 8-month-old child, for not giving him oral sex and screams that he'll burn their house down. "You're dishonest and you're f **ked up!," he growled. "So you stay the f **k away from me! Take care of your f **king son and I better have my daughter!"

But is it possible his rants aren't qutie what they seem? Grigorieva denied she released the tapes. Now some question their integrity......

Is anyone with audio editing experience out there willing to splice together a rant from bits and pieces of his movie roles?

Maybe they were the work of Osama Bin Laden.

I have been wondering about this. In the first ones I heard the woman's voice sounded stilted, like a badly read script. I got that impression from later ones as well.

Who among us, in the throes of a highly emotional situation, would not be further stressed by this level of scrutiny, whether genuine or not?

This reeks of witch-hunt, and has been played so many times on the liberal networks it's sickening. But not one word about "killing cracker babies"....Hmmmm.

No one seems to be denying that it is in fact Gibson on those tapes.

Mel who said that the mother of his child would be raped by a gang of N-Bombs and his voice that admits to punching the mother of his child in her face.

I have wondered that as well. Also, her voice comes across more clear, as if she isn't on a phone line but he is.

Perhaps it is easily explainable by whatever equipment she was using to record the call, that it may "shield" her voice from sounding like a phone conversation, but it seems a strange effect if so.

The recordings are very odd. The speech pattern seems halting. Never thought really they might be fake.

I think she’s holding a mic up to the phone-that’s why she is so clear. But I’m no expert.

Character assassination in progress.
If one of the Hollywood bunch is perceived as too conservative, the liberals gang up.

The man is an actor and a drunk. Drunken actors who get mad, say the craziest things imaginable and go thru every emotion they've ever used on screen. (They're pretty entertaining)

This woman, who has children for profit, set up a tape recorder and instigated arguments over several days, knowing he would act out, then the most damning parts could be spliced together and *BINGO*...the Golden Meal Ticket.

Mel needs to sober up and go home to Robyn and the kids.

Funny that they came out after she reneged on a court approved agreement with Gibson. And after a judge sealed them when she let slip in court that she had them.

He is on some bad medication

Unfortunately he isn't on any medication for his bipolar except alcohol.

They did the same thing to that noted conservative, Alec Baldwin.

“Never thought really they might be fake.”

I’ve wondered about it, and know that it isn’t that difficult to do, but don’t know enough about it to be certain if something like this particular tape has been tampered with. Hopefully, someone out there does have that expertise, and can explain the process well enough for the rest of us to understand.

I wonder if the “so called” ranting match any of the movies he has been in?

Distinctly possible, and if so, probably really easy to prove. The other thing I do wonder about, assuming the tapes are real, is if he’s got a tumor or lesion on the brain, or something like that.

“She clearly was speaking into what we call a large diaphragm microphone. Her voice is very well engineered. She sounds great.”

&&&
I know nothing about acoutics science or electronics, but I remember thinking when I heard one of these recordings on the news that her voice quality seemed too clear for a recorded phone conversation. But I could not explain why it seemed so to me.

He’s bipolar. He said so in an interview.
