CR here with 28 years experience. Electronic recording is great…until it’s not. I occasionally transcribe proceedings that were recorded. The amount of words missed in electronic recording is substantial. Sometimes it’s the microphone, someone shuffling papers next to microphone, someone coughing constantly next to a microphone. You get my point. Mostly it’s just because attorneys stand too far away from microphones and nobody notices. What can be heard in courtroom is completely different than what a microphone will pick up clearly. In other words, if it was me being charged with a crime, I wouldn’t expect to get a verbatim transcript from a recording. Don’t let anyone kid you. Btw, im not shilling for court reporters. I’m retiring soon and have no skin in this game.
All counties need this. Not just LA.
