Hearing Today In Case Against Casey Anthony
11:56 am EST December 20, 2010

The defense says some of Casey's relatives in Ohio and others, who have known her and her family since she was a child, don't want to help her stay off death row if she's convicted of murdering her daughter, Caylee Anthony, because they don't want to be contacted or covered by the media.

Casey Anthony team argues to seal names of witnesses
Judge Belvin Perry just heard arguments for and against sealing the penalty phase witnesses and said he would reserve ruling on the matter.

"The court just can't pick a prejudice out of the air," Fugate said, adding that the release of the penalty phase witnesses will not "taint jurors coming in from another county."

Fugate suggested that some of these witnesses may already be part of the public record and called for the defense to show particularized needs why specific witness names should be withheld. These arguments, she noted, could be done in a private session with the judge, Fugate said.

Casey's Defense May Lose Key Expert Witness

http://www.wftv.com/news/26198041/detail.html

The defense team's most high-profile expert, Dr. Henry Lee, might be the next to go because of money issues. The defense claimed Dr. Lee helped investigators find hairs in Casey's car, and if Lee drops out of the case so could the defense claim that investigators weren't thorough enough.

"They may lose a very powerful tool to raise reasonable doubt in their case," WFTV legal analyst Bill Sheaffer said.
