1. sounds like the court and the Judge have no concept what Skype is. As well,on a live broadcast presenting a number for the call is asking for trouble. Yea, your being toyed with like a mouse trapped by a cat. This whole affair has been one big circus from day one.

2. Good grief.

3. Too funny!!!

4. This is a ridiculous example of a supposedly educated person not knowing how to set up Skype privacy options. In my Skype only the calls from the entities on the contact list are allowed and no one can bother me. Even in Internet age so many seem to be ignorant about the functions of the tools they are using.
   Options -> Privacy -> Allow Calls From = Only the people I have allowed
   This is what a setting in my Linux Skype called. How do you spell ‘bingo’?

5. Is that bubbling sound the prosecution’s case circling down the drain?

6. Yeah no idea why he’d be getting so many calls with this being on live tv. If a man’s life wasn’t on the line this would be funny. These idiots are just “dialing it” in. The police were right in not charging to begin with. The judge is done with these retards at this point.

7. Anyone else notice how all our “modern technology” gives us some of the poorest communications imaginable ?
   And it all sounds like an echo chamber in a submarine.
   And the people who use it think they are the coolest dudes on the forefront of everything.

8. ignorance of the lusers aside, i am amazed (not a difficult hurdle) by the mischief human beings bring to any given event. typical – YOUR 21 PIN PORT CABLE is screwing up your powerpoint presentation!

9. Are you sure you know what you are talking about?
   In the course of my job I have to coordinate work of teams located all around the globe.
   For that I have installed several phone lines, but sometimes they provide poor quality sound with dropping out words. Skype saves the conference calls because it automatically chooses the best compression protocol for the connection capacity and changes them on the fly.
   Even if my phones drop out words, Skype still sounds perfectly clear if only slightly reduces dynamic range. RTFM and learn the tools instead of issuing blanket condemnations, it might benefit you in the long run.
   This whole story and comments are about using something you did not bother getting familiar with.
   How difficult is it – taking 5 min to go over privacy settings before starting to use a program to testify at a murder case?
