"Snip"
By Anthony Colarossi, Orlando Sentinel

3:13 p.m. EDT, March 29, 2011

Casey Anthony's defense team today filed new motions attacking the reliability of two important prosecution witnesses that the state wants to testify about science-related matters in the upcoming murder trial.

First, the defense filed a motion attacking "the unreliability of expert opinion testimony" of Dr. David Hall, a forensic botanist for the prosecution.

The defense also filed an amended motion regarding another state witness, FBI fiber examiner Karen Korsberg Lowe.

On Friday April 1. , a second round of hearings on scientific issues in the case is scheduled to resume.

Hearing set for 10 a.m. March 31. over whether to allow new defense witnesses.

Two witnesses are Dr. Jeffrey Danziger and William Weitz, Ph.D. The defense wants both "to rebut recent rulings related to the defendant's state of mind and consciousness of guilt."

Other late witnesses include
Assistant State Attorney Kenneth Lewis; Daniel Kondos, a supervisor responsible for maintaining landscape on Suburban Drive, near where Caylee's remains were found; Patricia Young, a Texas EquuSearch member "found to have material testimony necessary for the defendant; and Sharon Cadieux, another "necessary witness to the defendant."

ORLANDO, Fla. -- In between hearings, Casey Anthony's defense team is continuing its attack on state experts who examined evidence in the case.


MOTIONS 3/29/2011:
Dr. Hall http://www.wftv.com/pdf/27360747/detail.html
Karen Lowe http://www.wftv.com/pdf/27360813/detail.html


DOCUMENT 3/22/2011: Motion For Additional Witness
http://www.wftv.com/pdf/27361077/detail.html

Casey Anthony's defense wants the FBI expert struck from the witness list and a new hearing on the other expert.
 

This article has been updated and is a MUST read.

Lippman said, facts aside, that the defense could still use the theory that his client killed Caylee at trial.

"If there's a reasonable scenario that could cater to how the circumstances then turned out later, certainly you present it, it's absolutely necessary if you're going to represent your client zealously," Lippman said.

Lippman said he met last Friday with defense attorney Jose Baez and Casey Anthony's mother, Cindy Anthony, but he cannot say what they discussed.
