Casey Anthony defense wants DNA testing on state evidence

September 27, 2010

Defense attorneys Jose Baez and Cheney Mason say they want DNA testing done on a canvas bag found at the recovery site and "shorts the State of Florida believes was worn by Caylee Marie Anthony," according to the motion.

The defense also asks that the items be tested by its DNA expert Richard Eikelenboom of the Dutch-based Independent Forensic Services.

"Mr. Eikelenboom is world renowned and highly regarded as a pioneer in the field of touch DNA, an area that could prove useful to the defense," the motion states. "Many laboratories in the United States have not mastered this technique, thereby placing a severe restriction on its [the defense team's] ability to find an expert with this expertise."

The state is balking at the request, saying the testing should be done at a certified lab inside the U.S. It's unclear whether the request would be taken up so soon at Monday's status hearing.

There is an issue being raised by the State Justice Administrative Commission on Monday. The JAC wants to make sure that in light of Anthony taking on three new attorneys that she is still indigent.

The defense also says eight people didn&#8217;t show up to the mass law enforcement deposition earlier this month.

State Attorney Jeff Ashton accused defense attorneys of dragging their feet and slowing down his ability to prepare for trial. However, Baez says he has a lot of preparing to do before he can depose witnesses.

Judge Perry did extend the deadline for expert witnesses from Oct. 31 until Nov. 19, but in every other case he told them they might have to work nights or weekends to get it done on time.

Anthony defense wants DNA testing done outside the US

Perry indicated he won't authorize evidence to be tested outside US, but he also said he was inclined to grant the motion.

Baez says the lab will be opening a facility in Denver within a few months, so location won't be an issue much longer.
 
Casey Anthony: Judge Belvin Perry&#8217;s style rivets the attention

&#8220;The defense plans to file a motion to ask the judge&#8217;s persmission to let Casey be there,&#8221; Belich said. &#8220;The judge seemed almost stunned by that request and doesn&#8217;t seem to be leaning in that direction.&#8221;

WOFL-Ch. 35 anchor Bob Frier asked about the way Perry keeps things moving.

&#8220;This is such a level of micromanagement I have never seen,&#8221; said Orlando attorney Diana Tennis, who provides analysis for the station. &#8220;This is just really unusual.&#8221;
