DC, you seem very sure of the legalities here. And you expound your thoughts on what the law is, what is admissible in court, etc at some length. And multiple posts. Presumably being in Florida you have not passed the CA bar, but please let us know your legal training and experience so we can evaluate your statements.
Personally I am inclined to think that the local DA and her staff know their business and have brought a case that they are reasonably confident they can win. It also seems likely that someone in that office is familiar with the relevant rules of evidence. But maybe posters here know better.
