Anthonys' Attorney Comments On Autopsy Reaction

George and Cindy Anthonys' attorney, Brad Conway, says he is now working to prepare them to handle the details inside Caylee Anthony's autopsy report.

Conway appeared on a morning news program Monday and said the release of Caylee's autopsy report and Father's Day made things tough for the Anthonys.

"This was a very difficult weekend for both George and Cindy and they got through it as best they could, but it was very, very hard," said Conway.

Conway Discusses Caylee Autopsy On 'Today'
Family's Attorney Talks About Report
POSTED: 9:50 am EDT June 22, 2009
UPDATED: 12:07 pm EDT June 22, 2009

An attorney for the family of Caylee Anthony appeared on NBC's "Today" show on Monday to discuss the release of an autopsy report on the toddler.

Judge Stan Strickland ordered the report released on Friday after hearing an emotional plea from George Anthony to keep the results private.

A portion of the report indicated duct tape found on the head of the skeleton -- and that the tape was clearly placed prior to decomposition, according to Orange County Medical Examiner Dr. Jan Garavaglia.

Conway said the family was disappointed about the release of the report, but he said it would remain to be seen whether it would affect a jury pool.

State Wants To Photo Anthony's Tattoo
Prosecution Requests Trial Within 60 Days In Check Fraud Case
POSTED: Monday, June 22, 2009
UPDATED: 12:58 pm EDT June 22, 2009
<snipped>
The state attorney's office has filed motions in two different cases against Casey Anthony, including a request to photograph one her tattoos from jail.

In motions filed on Monday, the prosecution requested to take photographs of a tattoo on Anthony's shoulder.

Tattoo artist Danny Colomarino told investigators he gave Anthony the tattoo in early July 2008, two weeks after her daughter, Caylee Anthony, went missing.

In the other motion, prosecutors asked that a trial date be set in the check fraud case against Anthony.

Last fall, Anthony's defense asked that the check fraud trial be delayed so they could focus on the murder charges against Anthony, but in a motion filed on Friday, the prosecution asked that the trial be set for a date within the next 60 days.

The check fraud charges against Anthony stem from accusations from former friend Amy Huizenga that Anthony made several purchases at Target using Huizenga's checks.

Casey Anthony: Nancy Grace tells 'The View' you 'don't need motive'

The "View" panelists wanted guest Nancy Grace's take on the saga of slain toddler Caylee Anthony and her mother, Casey, who is charged with the child's murder.

HLN host Grace talked about the autopsy and the finding of duct tape on the child's face -- "prior to decomposition, most likely while the girl was alive."

The "View" team reacted with revulsion.

"But there's no motive?" Barbara Walters asked.

"Don't need motive," Grace said. "If I had to crawl into every murderers' head that I ever prosecuted, I'd still be trying to prove my first murder. Why would you murder anybody? But it does help the state to have a motive."

Caylee Anthony: Experts reach different conclusions on autopsy
posted by halboedeker on Jun 22, 2009 9:01:43 AM
<snipped>
Dr. Jan Garavaglia determined that the toddler was a victim of homicide and noted that duct tape was placed on the child's face before decomposition.

"The report suggests but does not conclude Caylee suffocated with that tape over her mouth," NBC's Kerry Sanders reported. His report was a preview of what we're likely to hear about forensics at the trial. Casey Anthony is charged with the murder of Caylee, her daughter.

"Forensics is likely to be the key evidence that a jury considers," Sanders said from Orlando. "In a case of science, it is which expert do you believe?"

"Today" talked to two experts. Dr. Werner Spitz, a defense pathologist, said, "There is nothing that I know that puts the lid on this, that tells you that there was a murder here. Everything, as far as I know, is in question."

NBC also asked Dr. Cyril Wecht, a forensic expert, to analyze the autopsy report. He speculated that the child suffered if she suffocated. Suffocation "would be the most likely way in which you would expect an infant, a young child to be murdered," he said. "It's easily accomplished, obviously, and would leave no telltale marks."

Casey Anthony: WKMG finds defense team unimpressed by autopsy

Kobilinsky dismissed the finding. "It is not clear how the child died, and if we don't know how the child died, we really can't determine whether or not it was a homicide," Kobilinsky said.

Kobilinsky said there was no evidence of drugs in the child's remains. But Pipitone noted that only hair and bone could be tested -- and so exposure to drugs couldn't be ruled out.

Kobilinsky noted Caylee's hyoid bone wasn't found and that would have been examined to see if there was strangulation. But Pipitone added that the hyoid bone in a child could be so soft that it might not break in strangulation.

And what of duct tape applied to Caylee's face before decomposition? "That indicates a homicide, not a suicide, not an accidental, not a natural death," Pipitone said.

Kobilinsky disagreed. "That is not necessarily the case," he said. "If, for example, the child died as the result of accidental trauma and then, subsequently, for whatever reason, somebody took the child and did whatever was done involving plastic bags and duct tape."

Prosecutors Want Photos Of Casey Anthony's Tattoo

Prosecutors want permission to go into the jail to take pictures of a tattoo Casey Anthony got two weeks after her daughter, Caylee, disappeared.

Eyewitness News previously reported about the tattoo on Casey's back, which reads "La Vita Bella," which is Italian for "The Beautiful Life."

The state believes it could be important to their case.


PROSECUTORS WANT STOLEN CHECK TRIAL MOVED UP
Prosecutors want the judge to schedule Casey's trial involving stolen checks before her murder trial.

The defense convinced the judge last year to postpone Casey's trial on charges she stole checks and cashed them to buy beer, food and her infamous white sunglasses.

Now that her murder trial could be a year off, prosecutors want to move forward on the lesser charges.

Jose Baez talked about several key parts of his defense of Casey Anthony during an exclusive interview with WESH 2 News.
1. No cause of death.

2. No eye witness testimony to her death

3. No tie to the remains, they have to prove that Casey dumped the body there before entering state custody and that they remained there for 6 months.

4. Forensic evidence, Baez plans to vigoriously attack the strand of hair with signs of decomp, and the "sniff test" is not a test that is fully backed by science.

Casey Anthony case: Prosecutors want trial date set in fraud case
The state wants the trial set within the next 60 days.
5:08 PM EDT, June 22, 2009
<snipped>
Prosecutors want the fraud case against Casey Anthony to go to trial within the next two months, according to a request filed today by the state.

Anthony, 23, is charged with more than a dozen fraud charges, including fraudulent use of personal identification information, forgery of a check and uttering a forged check.

Prosecutors don't want wait to resolve the fraud case with the murder case. Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Marie.

Last month, attorneys said the murder trial won't likely happen until next year.

"Given the complexities of the two cases, it is unreasonable to allow the forgery case to languish another year without a resolution," Assistant State Attorney Frank George wrote in the two-page request.

No trial date has been set yet.
