State Prosecutor pokes more holes in expert's testimony─── 16:12 Wed, 16 Apr 2014
Pretoria - The High Court in Pretoria heard today that it is not known whether the music producer who recorded the gunshot and cricket bat tests presented as evidence in Oscar Pistorius's murder trial has any experience in such.
The recordings formed part of the evidence Roger Dixon gave in court. One was of a cricket bat hitting a wooden door. The other was that of gun shooting through a door.
As Dixon was cross-examined, he revealed this was the second gun test that had been done. The first had been unsuccessful as the gun kept jamming. Since stepping into the witness box yesterday, Dixon has testified on several aspects of the case, including the bullet wounds and wood splinter injuries Steenkamp sustained.
Earlier, Nel questioned Dixon's expertise, asking what qualifications he had in sound and ballistics.
