Story highlights A forensic audio expert says at least 10 shots are fired in the recording 
 
 Lawyer: The FBI questioned a man whose audio might contain the Michael Brown shooting 
 
 The audio was recorded during a video chat with a friend 
 
 CNN cannot independently confirm whether the shots heard were from the Brown incident 
 
 Could a newly released audio provide more clues on what led up to Michael Brown's shooting death 
 
 The FBI has questioned a man who says he recorded audio of gunfire at the time Brown was shot by Ferguson, Missouri, police on August 9, the man's attorney told CNN. 
 
 In the recording, a quick series of shots can be heard, followed by a pause and then another quick succession of shots. 
 
 Forensic audio expert Paul Ginsberg analyzed the recording and said he detected at least 10 gunshots -- a cluster of six, followed by four. 
 
 "I was very concerned about that pause ... because it's not just the number of gunshots, it's how they're fired," the man's attorney, Lopa Blumenthal, told CNN's Don Lemon. "And that has a huge relevance on how this case might finally end up."

 He was speaking to a friend on a video chat service and happened to be recording the conversation at the same time Brown was shot, Blumenthal said. 
 
 The attorney said she learned of the man's recording late last week from a mutual friend. 
 
 "I had to get his consent before I could reach out to the FBI," Blumenthal said. 
 
 CNN cannot independently verify the authenticity of the tape and has asked the FBI for confirmation of their interview with the man who made the recording. 
 
 The meaning of the pause 
 
 It's difficult to prove from the audio why the pause took place or whose narrative it supports. 
 
 Attorney Chris Chestnut said he was surprised by the gap in shots. 
 
 "It's the pause that gives most concern in a police shooting, especially with an unarmed victim, because at this point Mr. Brown is defenseless -- he has no weapon," said Chestnut, who represented the family of Jonathan Ferrell 
 
 Like Brown, Ferrell was an unarmed African-American man who was shot and killed by a white police officer. 
 
 But if the gunfire heard on the audio is indeed from the Brown incident, the pause doesn't automatically suggest wrongful intent by the officer. 
 
 "To be fair, there could be other explanations for that pause," said attorney Van Jones, co-host of CNN's "Crossfire." "Maybe the officer will say, 'Well, I fired and he kept advancing, so I fired again.' " 
 
 Witnesses and a friend of Officer Darren Wilson have given conflicting accounts of what led up to Brown's death. 
 
 Dorian Johnson, a friend of Brown's who was walking with him at the time of the shooting, said the officer shot Brown once by the police car and again as he ran away. 
 
 According to Johnson, Brown was struck in the back and then turned around and put his arms up as the officer kept shooting. 
 
 But a woman who identified herself as a friend of Wilson called into a St. Louis radio show last week with what she said was the officer's version of events. The caller, who identified herself only as "Josie," said Brown taunted the officer and charged at him. Her account accurately matches what Wilson has told investigators, a source with detailed knowledge of the investigation told CNN. 
 
 An autopsy showed that all the entry wounds were in the front of Brown's body. 
 
 Key witness speaks out 
 
 Ferguson police said Brown allegedly robbed a convenience store shortly before the shooting. 
 
 And reports that his friend Johnson had a criminal record that includes lying to police has put Johnson's credibility in question. 
 
 In 2011, Johnson was arrested and accused of theft and lying to police about his first name, age and address. 
 
 Johnson said Monday night he doesn't understand why some are questioning his credibility. 
 
 "I see they bring up my past, my history, but it's not like it's a long rap sheet," Johnson told Lemon. "This one incident shouldn't make me a bad person." 

 The FBI has allegedly interviewed a man whose video chat with a friend picked up audio of the gunshots that killed Michael Brown, the individual’s lawyer tells CNN. What attorney Lopa Blumenthal claims is the sound of Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson firing at the unarmed 18-year-old can be heard in two distinct bursts — at least six shots, a pause, and an additional four shots, according to a forensic audio expert — in the ten-second clip. 
 
 “It’s the pause that gives most concern in a police shooting, especially with an unarmed victim, because at this point Mr. Brown is defenseless — he has no weapon,” says a lawyer who has previously represented the family of a police shooting victim. 
 
 (The foreground of the audio is a bit distracting. “You are pretty. You’re so fine. Just going on some of your videos. Okay, yeah,” says a man’s voice. As CNN’s Don Lemon put it, “Your client, uh, was having a video chat. With a friend. Doing normal … whatever you do.”) 
 
 Brown’s friend Dorian Johnson, who witnessed the shooting, has said Brown was shot first while struggling with Officer Wilson, and then again after running away as he turned back with his hands up. However, “Maybe the officer will say, ‘Well, I fired, and he kept advancing, so I fired again,’” offered CNN host and attorney Van Jones. 
 
 An autopsy commissioned by Brown’s family found that the teenager was shot at least six times, four times in the right arm and twice in the head, all in the front.
– Might these be the gunshots that killed Michael Brown? CNN has posted audio inadvertently recorded around the time of his shooting by a Ferguson man who was video chatting with a friend. A forensic audio expert tells the network that he hears a succession of six shots, then a pause, then four more shots. The authenticity of the audio hasn't been confirmed, though the FBI has interviewed the unidentified man who recorded it, says his attorney, Lopa Blumenthal. "I was very concerned about that pause," she tells CNN's Don Lemon. "Because it's not just the number of gunshots, it's how they're fired. And that has a huge relevance on how this case might finally end up." Assuming the shots are legit, it "doesn't sound good for Officer Darren Wilson," observes a headline at Daily Intelligencer. CNN's report, however, includes another attorney's opinion that Wilson could argue Brown kept advancing toward him after the first shots. The teen got shot six times, according to an autopsy.
