Anthony lawyer shows clip of media "frenzy"

Chief Judge Belvin Perry ruled that the 12 potential jurors and six potential alternates in Casey Anthony's trial will be chosen from somewhere in Florida outside Orlando, brought back to central Florida and then sequestered during the trial.
Jose Baez, Anthony's lead attorney, told the judge that South Florida residents had the least media exposure to the case and argued that the jurors shouldn't be picked from Jacksonville, Tampa or Pensacola. The Jacksonville area recently has had two missing girl investigations that resemble Anthony's case, while Tampa's proximity to Orlando had exposed residents there to the case, Baez said. He faulted Pensacola for not having the same demographic makeup as Orlando.
Near the conclusion of Monday's hearing, Baez played a roughly three-minute clip of the Orlando-area media coverage of the case. There were some technical difficulties during the playback of the video and the video appeared pixelated at times.
On Tuesday, the defense will present arguments against the death penalty, which they contend is unconstitutional.
