Jurors To Hear More Forensics In Casey Anthony Murder Trial
Posted: 6:18 am EDT June 7, 2011Updated: 8:13 am EDT June 7, 2011
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- On day 23 of Casey Anthony's murder trial, jurors are expected to hear more about forensic evidence, one day after groundbreaking evidence was introduced into the trial.
For the first time, testimony about controversial air tests was introduced on Monday, and the state hoped an expert on human decomposition could convince the jury Caylee Anthony's body was in her mother's car trunk before her remains were discovered.
 

 
Vass explained that the stain on the carpet contained acids generated by early stage human decomposition. He is a research scientist who's studied decomposing bodies for two decades.

He told jurors he was shocked to find 10,000 times the amount potentially deadly chloroform than would normally be expected in human decomposition alone.

“We were shocked. We've never seen chloroform in those levels before, at least I haven't,” he said.

On cross examination the defense found it difficult to grasp the scientific concepts enough to shoot holes in his testimony.

“Baez really didn't understand, nor have a grasp of the science behind those two statements wasn't able to lay a glove on him accordingly,” said WFTV legal analyst Bill Sheaffer.

Sheaffer said cross-examination of Vass failed to discredit the doctor’s expert credentials.

“Baez could not shake it, and at the end of the day, I think the jury found him credible and that there was a dead body in the trunk of that car,” he said.

Did it look like Casey said to Baez, "why aren't you talking to me?"  then he said something, and it appeared she said, I'm sorry.  Am I seeing things?

Jurors heard about a variety of evidence from several state witnesses in the first-degree murder case against Casey Anthony today, ranging from chloroform residue detected on items in her car to garbage found in the trunk.

Dr. Michael Rickenbach, a forensic chemist examiner with the FBI, told jurors he tested items from Casey Anthony's Pontiac Sunfire for chloroform, including fabric from a spare tire cover.

Rickenbach said residue of chloroform was identified on the item. Several jurors appeared to document this in their notes as Rickenbach testified.

He also said a chemical consistent with chloroform was found on fabric from the left and right sides of the trunk liner.

Chloroform can be deadly if inhaled, and investigators said someone at the Anthony's home searched the Internet for the term on the family computer.

Rickenbach, the state's third witness to testify today, told jurors chloroform is a volatile substance that doesn't stay around long. He told prosecutor Jeff Ashton he would have expected the chloroform to volatilize by the point of testing.

"I was surprised to even get any results for chloroform," he said.

Casey Anthony Trial Update: Evidence altered by CSI technician, says defense
Posted by Camille Mann
CBS/WKMG/AP) ORLANDO, Fla. - The defense in the Casey Anthony murder trial suggested Tuesday that crime scene evidence - garbage found in the trunk of Anthony's car - had been altered by a crime scene technician.
Gerardo Bloise, an Orange County Sheriff's Office CSI technician, testified about trash found in the trunk of Anthony's car, listing 37 items found in a bag, including napkins, receipts, soda cans and an empty pack of cigarettes, reports CBS affiliate WKMG.

Anthony's defense attorney Jose Baez asked Bloise why he dried out the garbage, which the defense contends created a foul odor in the car. Prosecutors say the smell was caused by human decomposition.

"You had no idea it would alter significant items in this case?" Baez said during cross-examination.

Bloise said he was following protocol, since drying out evidence preserves it and makes it easier to examine.

Deputy: Cadaver Dog Alerted To Playhouse, Casey's Car
Posted: 6:18 am EDT June 7, 2011Updated: 4:31 pm EDT June 7, 2011
 
Deputy Jason Forgey was asked to explain how his dog, Gerus, was trained and what the dog detected in the case.

Caylee was last seen alive on June 16, 2008. Prosecutors believe Casey drove around with her dead daughter's body in the trunk for days. Casey's next-door neighbor said she borrowed his shovel for about one hour on June 18.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office cadaver dog had alerted on two different locations in Casey's backyard. The location that was given the most attention was close to Caylee's playhouse. The playhouse was a second-birthday present for Caylee that Lee and Cindy bought and George put it together. Caylee even had her own mailbox.

Prosecutors believe Casey might have tried to bury Caylee's body in that area where the Anthonys had so many memories with Caylee. George had directed deputies to one area where he noticed fresh dirt.

"He gave a final trained alert in the southeast corner of the yard. There was a playhouse in the area," said Forgey.

The sheriff's cadaver dog also alerted on Casey's car, which bolsters both new scientific evidence and other eyewitness testimony that the jury heard, indicating Caylee's body was in her mother's trunk.

"The trunk was open, Gerus jumped up into the trunk," said Forgey. "Of course, I was overwhelmed at that point because I'm hitting it same time as he is."

Forensic chemist, police dog handler take stand in Casey Anthony trial
Posted: 04:46 PM ET
(CNN) - Florida jurors heard more scientific testimony Wednesday in Casey Anthony's capital murder trial, focusing on analysis of the trunk of her car and on cadaver dogs.

Michael Rickenbach, an FBI forensic chemist examiner, testified that he analyzed pieces of Anthony's trunk liner, carpet and parts of the spare tire cover, among other items.

On those, he said, chloroform "residue" was found, but it was at low levels. On Monday, a scientist who tested the carpet from Anthony's trunk testified that levels of chloroform in that portion of the trunk were "shockingly high."

Rickenbach, however, did not want to offer specific levels, saying it would not be appropriate because he conducted qualitative testing, confirming chloroform's presence, rather than quantitative testing, which would detect its level.

Casey Anthony Trial: Cadaver Dog Alerted Cops to Dead Body in Trunk

By Steve Helling

Tuesday June 07, 2011 05:40 PM EDT

Several people have testified to the foul smell of decomposition in and near Casey Anthony's trunk after 2-year-old Caylee was reported missing in July 2008. In court Tuesday afternoon, jurors heard about a specially trained non-human's detection of the odor: a German Shepherd named Gerus.

Orlando (CNN) -- Jurors will hear more forensic evidence in the Casey Anthony trial Wednesday, a day after experts testified that a trained dog alerted them to the smell of human remains in the suspect's car.

A dog trained to locate remains alerted its handler to the smell of human remains in the trunk of Anthony's car and a corner of her parents' backyard, a K-9 handler testified Tuesday.

When the dog, Gerus, passed around Anthony's white Pontiac Sunfire on July 17, 2008, "he started indicating in the rear of the vehicle," said Jason Forgey, a sheriff's deputy in Orange County, Florida.

"I could tell he was working something."

Casey Anthony trial: State to call Osceola Sheriff's K-9 handler first
By Bianca Prieto and Amy Pavuk, Orlando Sentinel
5:54 a.m. EDT, June 8, 2011

An Osceola County Sheriff's K-9 handler will be the first witness called by the state this morning as the 13th day of the Casey Anthony trial gets underway at 9 a.m. today.

Deputy Kristin Brewer worked with her K-9 partner to sweep Casey Anthony's backyard in July 2008 to look for evidence of a dead body.

Jurors were dismissed 20 minutes early Tuesday after Orange-Osceola Chief Judge Belvin Perry decided it would be better for Brewer's testimony to be heard all at once and not broken up.
