Casey Anthony case: Casey defense team files motion to dismiss case

Sarah Lundy Sentinel Staff Writer

5:56 p.m. EDT, September 17, 2009
The latest filing in the Casey Anthony murder case on Thursday was the boldest to date.

Anthony's defense team is asking Circuit Judge Stan Strickland to dismiss the case.

And just in case Strickland isn't inclined to get rid of the case in which Anthony is charged with first-degree murder, defense attorneys also filed an amended motion about a change of venue. The defense suggests Miami-Dade, Broward or Palm Beach counties as possible places for the murder trial, which is unscheduled but could come to court sometime in 2010.

The defense asked that Strickland rule on the change of venue within 30 days, that he give the defense 10 days to reply and then set a hearing date on the motion.

Also filed on Thursday were motions related to the Orange County Jail. The defense wants a protective order prohibiting the jail from videotaping attorney visits with Anthony at the jail.

And it wants the jail to destroy videos of Anthony and her family.

In addition, the defense filed a document asking the judge to grant a previous request from the state, which asked for a transcript of Casey Anthony's father's s testimony before the grand jury. George Anthony's appearance before the grand jury preceded his
daughter's indictment.

Casey Anthony is charged in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Marie, who disappeared last summer. Her remains were found in December in a wooded area less than a mile from the house Casey Anthony shared with her parents.

She was indicted for murder in October and was in jail at the time her daughter's body was discovered.

This story is developing.

The defense would like this case dismissed before the 15 day deadline they were given to produce, according to Macaluso  "the evidence that proves Casey's innocence"-     I didn't think they would be able to come up with anything.....    this is just smoke and mirrors to distract from the fact the deadline is coming up any day now!

Didn't Big Mack say something about "overwhelming evidence" when he was making his plea in court, or something like that?

I think so - wasn't it around the time that letter from the inmate surfaced claiming he knew who did it, and it wasn't KC?    They are all full of it, JMO.    Its all a big show.

Whoa!!

According to the motion, "the state deliberately misled the court and delayed formal identification of remains so it could obtain exclusive control of the crime scene through Dec. 19, 2008" the date the medical examiner announced the remains belonged to the little girl.

The skeletal remains was discovered Dec. 11, 2008 by a meter reader.

Defense lawyers said exculpatory evidence was not preserved and that violate Casey Anthony's rights. Exculpatory evidence supports a defendant's claim of innocence.

Anthony's lawyers contend the state erred by tampering with the victim's remains and excavation location before the defense could bring in it's own experts.

Her lawyers wanted to hire off-duty police officer to secure the area, but the state attorney's office wouldn't permit it.

I've never heard of such a thing. Besides, if KC is innocent why were they thinking they needed a police officer there?? If she did nothing wrong they wouldn't be worried or not trusting of the police and investigators at the scene. No?? These defense lawyers of hers crack me up! They think she walks on water or something? I don't get any of them!  Thats ok, I don't want to!

That's pretty standard for the defense to ask to dismiss the case, isn't it? Isn't going to happen, but I don't think that is anything out of the ordinary, anyone?

Yes, I believe it is pretty standard.   I'm not worried about this BS.   I'm surprised it took the defense so long to ask for the case to be dismissed.    They are just wasting their time, JMO.   

Thanks, I thought so 

[Fanny Mae]

I wonder with all these documents being filed by the defense today if this is the reason the old battleaxe posponed her hearing for a week?

[QuietMonkey]

Do these defense lawyers think that the state is setting KC up to make it look like she murdered Caylee, and that they are hiding evidence of the real killer?  Lets just set her free then!! 

It's all so rediculious!

Anthony also wants to visit with her family without fear their meetings will be recorded and released to the media.

Shortly after her arrest last year, telephone calls Anthony made from jail and video visits she had with her brother, Lee, and her parents, George and Cindy Anthony, were released to the public.

"Because all the videos have all been released in their entirety, many blogs, newspapers and radio stations have analyzed every detail of their conversations," her defense attorneys Jose Baez and Andrea Lyon wrote in the court document.

Her family has not visited her at the jail in a year. Her parents attend court hearings in order to see her.

Anthony's attorneys argue that she needs her family support and providing video of visits to the media could be deemed as an attempt to punish Anthony. Her lawyers also say that without family visits her defense team can not adequate prepare for her death penalty case.

Please Ms. Big Britches....explain this reasoning.

The judge I thought ruled on the defense going to the remains site?  Wasn't that the same time the talk of a secure server, for the pics of the remains site? This must be for appeals purposes I am thinking.  This was already dealt with.

It's a da_n jail, get over it already, she is not going to get special treatment, the jail is probably so sick of this bs, they wouldn't do it even if they could. Family support

And if they got this changed would this apply to all prisoners in that jail or just one?
