For extra court room admissibility reliability with recordings, you can set your phone to speaker and call 911. I have a hard time seeing a judge and prosecutor managing to toss out a 911 call.

I wouldnt recommend calling 911 and not talk to them about an emergency. Btw in court if the authenticity of the recording becomes and issue (normally it doesnt unless it's obviously altered) then pretty easily a depending on format a digital or analog analysis can be done to confirm its authenticity.
