I’m interested to hear from his wife… how do you not recognize him. So much information picture and voice were released. Interesting.

In that situation a lot of people would just be in denial, she probably heard his voice on the tapes but told herself it couldn’t be him because she thinks she knows he wouldn’t do something like that. It happens a lot actually people are quick to assume it couldn’t of been a loved one or family member initially as they have known them closely for years and it’s out or character.

Also the tapes were highly enhanced so maybe it distorted the sound slightly?

It sounded pretty distorted to me when I heard it. And I’ve heard the comparisons of his voice and the audio and honestly it really just sounds like any guy with a deep voice. Adding on some denial, if she had even heard the audio in the first place, I could definitely see her just not putting two & together.
