I heard from some readers after my interview last week with Scot Safon, executive vice president of HLN.

He challenges the findings of Orange-Osceola Chief Medical Examiner Jan Garavaglia. He particularly takes issue with Garavaglia's saying, "Although there is no trauma evident on the skeleton, there is duct tape over the lower facial region still attached to head hair. This duct tape was clearly placed prior to decomposition, keeping the mandible in place."

Kelley described sitting with a "distraught" George Anthony in his home as cadaver dogs sniffed around the backyard of the Anthony home.

Kelley, who knew the Anthonys before the case erupted in July 2008, also said he drafted documents to help the Anthonys have Caylee's father sign over his parental rights. He did not know if those documents were ever filed, but was later told that the father signed the paperwork before he died, Kelley said during his October deposition.

The Orange County medical examiner initially said there was duct tape found near the bones that looked like it was placed over Caylee's mouth.

However, a new forensic scientist hired by Casey's attorneys, Werner Spitz, said there is no DNA evidence that tape was ever on Caylee's body.

According to court papers, the FBI agent said Casey Anthony gave him the impression the father could be her brother.

But sources said paternity tests for both Lee Anthony and Casey Anthony's ex-fiancee Jesse Grund's came out negative.

Hornsby said the tests helped remove a cloud of questions about both men.

Spitz said Garavaglia was wrong when she said Caylee's manner of death was homicide. He said it is undetermined. The two agreed that there is no scientific evidence that Caylee's death was at the hands of another, which is the definition of homicide.

Spitz also questioned if Garavaglia really knows where the duct tape was placed on Caylee's skull. Garavaglia noted in her report that the lower jaw was kept in place by duct tape that was attached to Caylee's hair, but Spitz said that is highly unlikely.
