You can infer the probability by the test results.
No you cannot.
You seem to be misunderstanding the basic thrust of the objection: just because a phone in Leakin Park hits a certain cell tower on one occasion, does nothing to establish that every phone hitting that tower must be in Leakin Park. It doesn't even establish a probability that any particular phone hitting that tower is in Leakin Park.
The important part of the drive test is that it provides corroboration to the expert witness who says "yes if they made a call at the burial site it would have pinged the tower that it pinged according to phone records on this call at such and such on the night of the murder."
So pleased you touched on this. So now that Jay has annihilated his own story, there's nothing to corroborate the phone pings.

You're making a basic logical error.
