AFFIRMED. See Asencio v. State, 244 So.3d 294, 297 (Fla. 4th DCA 2018) (explaining that an audio recording may be authenticated by a records custodian of jail calls, even if that custodian is not personally familiar with the defendant's voice because the question for the trial court is not whether the evidence is authentic, but whether evidence exists from which the jury could reasonably conclude that it is authentic).
