On February 18, 2009, documents released by the State Attorney's Office in Florida indicated that the same type of laundry bag, duct tape, and plastic bags discovered at the crime scene were found in the house where Casey and Caylee resided. Heart-shaped stickers were also recovered by investigators. A heart-shaped sticker was found on the duct tape that covered the mouth area of Caylee's skull. The documents also indicate that Cindy Anthony stated to them that a Winnie the Pooh blanket was missing from Caylee's bed. This type of blanket was found at the crime scene. An entry from Casey Anthony's diary was also released.

The entry is dated "June 21," and reads:

I have no regrets, just a bit worried. I just want for everything to work out okay. I completely trust my own judgement & know that I made the right decision. I just hope that the end justifies the means. I just want to know what the future will hold for me. I guess I will soon see -- This is the happiest that I have been in a very long time. I hope that my happiness will continue to grow -- I've made new friends that I really like. I've surrounded myself with good people -- I am finally happy. Let's just hope that it doesn't change.

A member of Casey Anthony's defense team, spokeswoman Marti MacKenzie, contends that this entry was written in 2003, as the opposite page has "'03" written in one of the corners. However, there was no authentication that this is a date, or when it was entered in the diary or by whom.

Well, well now - looks like we know why LKB is on the team.  Hope she thanks her hubby for the work tonight................ ANTHONY's ARE ON A MAJOR SPIN COMPAIN!!!!!!!!!

Terpenes
Terpenes are widespread in nature, mainly in plants as constituents of essential oils. Many terpenes are hydrocarbons, but oxygen-containing compounds such as alcohols, aldehydes or ketones (terpenoids) are also found. Their building block is the hydrocarbon isoprene, CH2=C(CH3)-CH=CH2 (isoprene rule, Wallach 1887). Terpene hydrocarbons therefore have molecular formulas (C5H8)n, they are classified according to the number of isoprene units:

Thanks for the defintion of terpenes, but couldn't you get that on your car anywhere around the area?

On your car, sure, in your car a little more difficult.

Good day everyone,

Just passing through to catch up on the latest.....

The issue regarding plant life remnants on and in Casey's car and on shoes, clothing, etc. may prove to be very damaging to her defense, as explained in the following:

Plant Molecular Biology and DNA
 

The previously discussed cases have relied on traditional botanical methods for species identification (1,11-13,16,17). In the age of DNA analysis, forensic botany is using molecular biology to aid in criminal and civil investigations. The first criminal case that used plant DNA typing to gain legal acceptance was a homicide that occurred in 1992 in Ari-zona’s Maricopa County (9). A woman’s body was found under a Palo Verde tree in the Arizona desert. Near the body was a beeper, eventually traced to a suspect, Mark Bogan. A few seed pods from a Palo Verde tree were found in the back of Bogan’s truck. Officials wanted to know if DNA analysis could match those seed pods to the tree where the body was discovered. Dr T. Helentjaris from the University of Arizona used a technique of Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis to generate a band pattern from the evidence in question (9). He also surveyed a small population of other Palo Verde trees to determine if the band patterns were unique to each individual. His convincing testimony on plant evidence helped convict Mark Bogan of murder. RAPD marker analysis has also been used in civil court cases to identify patent infringements. In Italy, RAPD analysis of a patented strawberry variety “Marmolada” helped settle a lawsuit involving the unauthorized commercialization of the plant (6).

Molecular methods can be used to identify a plant species from minute leaf fragments and pollen grains. Forensic botanists have used DNA technology because often botanical trace evidence does not contain the necessary morphological or histological features that would allow one to identify a plant at the genus or species level. This is particularly true for fragmented and deteriorated plant material. The Bode Technology Group, Inc. (Dr Robert Bever; Springfield, VA, USA) is developing and using molecular methods to analyze botanical trace evidence (2,3). This type of analysis is a valuable tool for potentially linking an individual to a crime scene or physical evidence to a geographic location. One useful application for the molecular analysis of botanical trace evidence is the identification of a geographic region where a kidnapped individual may be located. Based on flowering times and the plant species represented in the trace pollen evidence found with a ransom note, a geographic region may be identified and would provide the police with an investigative lead. Plant systematists have characterized many loci that are useful for the identification of plants, including several nuclear (18S, ITS1, ITS2) and chloroplast (rbcL, atpB, ndhF) genes (2,3). Using some of those genes, the Bode Technology Group, Inc. has identified a DNA extraction, cloning, and sequencing procedure to identify plants. With these methods, they have identified numerous species of plants from physical evidence. These include species of algae, evergreens, and many flowering herbs, shrubs, and trees. Many plants have a limited geographic distribution or grow in specific habitats (1-3). Some of these locations will be general areas, such as roadsides or areas of new construction. Other locations will be more specific, like the Mojave Desert or southern Florida for plant species that have a severely restricted geographic range. Linking botanical trace evidence to a geographic region could provide law enforcement and investigators with valuable information.

o/t, but I saw that you haven't been feeling well lately, and I just wanted to send you some warm wishes. I hope you and the babies are hanging in there. Get your rest!

[ShariVari]

George said his children were very close.  Why did Casey ane Lee do the high five???  Come on monkeys, what was their victory???  What his part????  Why doesnt he go see his beloved sister?????  Dont let Casey be alone, put her brother with her if he helped.

IDK A1 ... Hmm, in the same cell. Well, I'll leave that one alone. I'm sure "MaliBu" Mallory would not be so eager to share her big hunk of a man. 

CMA smoooch CMA smoooch

Lee is the mayor of creeeeepytown.

I think Lee's CMA stands for Cover My Ass!

as in maybe Casey is taking all the blame and covering up for Lee.

Thank you LeBron you are such a sweety!!  I am feeling a bit better, just tired easily.

[no rose colored glasses]

Thank-you everyone for all the info on terpenes.

Dolce,the Dolcettes must be kicking hard.They knocked me out of the cage.

Awww, well I mean it. And it'll all be worth it once you see those little angels!!! And your pic looks beautiful btw!

[trimmonthelake]

Thank-you everyone for all the info on terpenes.

I wish we'd get some more info from Blink. 

[LuvLeBron]

Hi No Rose! And hello to all monkeys. Happy Friday

[Dolce]

Thank-you everyone for all the info on terpenes.

When looking up the spelling as per Padilla it turned up turtles.  I was trying to figure out why Casey would have turtles in her car, and how horrible for her to not let them out!

Me too

  What a scary thought to have your car full of turtles

Thanks so much!! Hugs to you and good to see you back in the cage more.

Blink, oh Blink!!  Where are you??  You have some splainin to do Missy!!!!!!!!

Trimm are you doing better?  I have thought about you a lot this week and have been praying for you and your family.

[Monkey with Class]

Yes Blink...  Anymore info on your post yesterday.   I think we need some more hints and or explanation.

Thanks

Me three! Hello monkeys. I'm exhausted. Early start this morning and now I think TGIF is going to start early for me.

I still want to know WHO WAS CASEY/ZANNY'S LAWYER IN TRAFFIC COURT, and how we can find out. Is that the connection to Bozo!!!! It's really bugging me.

Thanks Dolce,taking it a day at the time.Appreciate the prayers.I just try to remember there are people out there who have it worse than we do.
We have a home and good family.We are blessed.
