Caylee/Casey Anthony Case: New Discovery Released
Orlando, FL– The State Attorney’s Office is set to release 1000 additional pages of discovery this morning of previously unseen evidence in the case against Casey Anthony for the murder of her daughter, Caylee Marie.
Sources within the SA’s office speaking on the condition of anonymity to blinkoncrime.com say the new information is largely FBI reports.
The release comes on the heels of new motions filed by the defense this week.
Jose Baez and Andrea Lyon, defense counsel for Casey Anthony filed a motion alleging double jeopardy violation in the upcoming fraud case, a reply to the states motion to preclude death procedures and yet another motion to dismiss. A hearing date has not yet been set by Judge Strickland’s office.
blinkoncrime.com will be posting the latest round of discovery as soon as it becomes available. Please check back for updates.

Has any one read Bill Sheaffer’s Blog, lately?
Trolls have completely overtaken the comments section,fighting over grammar and spelling and who knows what else.
I think it is very sad. Even though he had some important points wrong in his first Blog I would have liked to read his lawyer point of view.
Thank you to Blink for running such a topnotch site, factual, friendly and safe for all no matter what. I had no idea things could go awry so quickly.-Scary
Sad. But unfortunately, expected. You can’t blog and run. Maybe they will hire a mod and make nice.

#755 Hi Justice ,
Cindy says in here depo that casey came home and was gonna get in the pool with her and caylee but cindy said no its getting too chilly. Says they went in and casey gave caylee her bath and then they watched desperate housewives together (i thought she said in casey’s room) and she went to bed after. George in his depo says he came home at 11:30 checked on caylee and saw that she was asleep. Didn’t remember seeing casey at all.George stayed up until 12:30 ish and says he dosn’t remember seeing casey come in. In the am on the 16th, Cindy says she left a half hour early for work and she didn’t want to open the door and wake them up. She says she never physically sees casey or caylee that morn.George says he and cindy went in kitchen and got caylee breakfast and made some coffee -that it was like any other morning and that cindy left for work at normal time. Casey’s phonepingsshow her at the house at night and im on computer in the am.In the beginning george and cindy really didn’t know what happened to Caylee(IMO) but started these lies later on to explain or cover caseys actions.George denies seeing her the eve of the 15th and cindy denies seeing casey the am on the 16th.
sorry for the large words my spacebar dosn’t always work !:)
#592 WSH…thanks for your reply. “Smoke and mirrors” was an unfortunate choice of words on my part. Not meaning to slur LE, but just thinking that the exact perimeters of the collected debris at or near Caylee’s body must be very fluid considering that the place is a neighborhood dumping ground and animals continually work that site. Others have suggested that the more incrimimating or inflammatory evidence might be withheld until trial, so all the talk on some of this latest discovery doc. might be mostly just an exercise…like so much in this case.
Quoting Cindy: (July 30, pt 4 FBI– times in square brackets)
[7:18 minutes]
“I still believe that Caylee’s body…and I find it very hard to believe that Caylee…Casey had the opportunity to put Caylee in there for a short period of time that get the car stench that bad…. and take her somewhere else…. you know what I’m sayin’…. the timeframe doesn’t make sense to me common sense…..”
“….parking the car there makes no sense… Not leave it in plain site for my mom to find… or evidence…”
(Cindy diverts into what she would do, like drive the car into a river, off a cliff, into another county… then comes back to what she is thinking about Caylee)
[8 minutes--]
” ….common sense tells me that Caylee’s not…. has not been in that car as ‘A Cadaver’ ”
(Cindy is NOT arguing that Caylee is alive, just that she has not been in that car as a (Cindy uses hand gestures at this point to show ‘quotes’ A Cadaver.)
Oh…. the 14th…. the 14th…
Got it now… why Cindy had earlier said to Scott Bolin in her chat with him… the 14th… twice as the ‘week of the 14th’… or ‘after the 14th’… which didn’t make sense because we know the 15th/16th as the days before Caylee went ‘missing’.
Cindy was priming the idea by making the 14th suggestion within the first hour talking to Scott Bolin, but she had never told him about Blanchard Park version before– to Cindy, this was the very first time she would be letting authorities know and why not, because it would be ‘going public’ soon. (‘PUBLIC’ — that’s a very strange way to put it when this was a kidnapping with threats about going public, or to the police’– but to Cindy, that’s ok, I’ll let the FBI in on it).
The 14th was hinted at for JULY 14th, a MONDAY, which makes sense as ‘the week of…’ or after July 14th’.
So, how, in Casey’s story, did the car get taken from Casey and left at Amscot to be towed away over two weeks earlier, and how does that fit with the Blanchard Park story of the 14th of July? How did Casey deliver Caylee to Blanchard Park? In Amy’s car? Did this new car of Amy’s have Caylee’s fingerprints in it? Caylee’s seat (or one for Caylee to safely use?).
What else happened on July 14th– when did Casey pick Caylee up from the nanny after sleeping the night with Tony? Why did she have Caylee for a few short hours before again meeting Zanny at Blanchard?
Kleat:
“(Cindy is NOT arguing that Caylee is alive, just that she has not been in that car as a (Cindy uses hand gestures at this point to show ‘quotes’ A Cadaver.)”
Sounds like she’s trying to discredit the signaling K-9 cadaver dogs that were brought in July 18.
Air quotes irk me to no end. The finger positions and gestures always look like rabbits to me, and the credibility factor wanes immediately.
yeah, wpg… her stumbling gives her away– she knows at this point… then recoups and back on spin-track, interspersed with the ‘blame game’ as per Baez– she even admits that Baez warns that they shouldn’t go public about Amy etc… because of fear for Caylee
justice23, you raise a good question. LE did ask Tony (I think) if he rode in Casey’s car in June and IIRC he said, yeah, she gave a ride to him and 2 or 3 friends sometime during the week of June 24, he thought.
Weird. Is he lying?
The other thing to consider is that the smell probably got worse and worse with the heat and with the car being closed up at the tow yard, so maybe when she aired it out daily and tried to clean it, it wasn’t unbearable. I mentioned once that I spilled a bottle of milk in my car one summer, and every daY I’d clean my mats really well (I thought) and then the next day it would be awful again. The odor kept creeping back. It was vile, and that was just plain old milk.
Bill Schaeffer’s blog is still somehow attached to WordPress– although does not have the appearance, it will still ask you to sign in on the side menu for some functions, not sure why, but it does link to WP.
He might do well to set up a separate WordPress page, linked to wftv, and then eliminate comments, let the trolls go where trolls go, and let the interested people stay with their fav. sites. I would like to see him maintain the raw video format too, maybe link the evidence discussions of the past, in what WordPress would have as a ‘blogroll’ type archive menu.
Maybe he can mirror his blog on WordPress still, and not use the comments funtion.
In regards to the smell in the car. I had a friend that was in LE. On his first call to a death scene they told him to be sure he didn’t wear a leather belt/shoes or wallet as the smell would permeate these items and never let go.(this took place in the early 90′s)
When I first heard about the boots and purse left in the car by Casey I thought ah ah she only left them behind because she could not get the smell out.
# 309 Suz. Casey took Tony to look at apts.. He was going to move when his lease was up.
RE #793 comment: “I am still in amazement that not ONE human saw or smelled anything out of the ordinary enough to question or comment on it in their interviews with LE.”
Seems to me someone did smell something . . . Casey smelled a couple of “dead squirrels”.
#801 I did notice the difference in the depo’s concerning breakfast and Cindy’s time of departure.
Now, are they both stuck with their individual stories at trial and if one changes his/her rendition of it, can they be charged with perjury and obstruction of justice? Like the story of Cindy googling
“clorophil”.
I was able to find ONE lone doc that is hand written and dated 3/4/09 that says OCSO DID lift latent prints, but I think I may have missed what piece of evidence this note refers to, but it is on page 11042 (or pg 22 in this set http://www.cfnews13.com/uploadedFiles/11021-11050.pdf) Sorry if someone else already found this, but if those latents ARE Casey’s this could be BIG
It refers to the latents from the flat iron and dvd’s, blow up bed, etc. We know some contained latents, but not who they belong to.
B
suz, that’s a British term as boot is– sorry for the confusion.
Blink, can you please set the stage for us– the state’s depositions are held in the courthouse, are they held in an actual courtroom, or in an office meeting room? I would expect that Morgan & Morgan have a replica court room, for purposes of putting their clients at ease in that setting. And an oath is an oath, the depositions are not before the court, so that the state would hold it’s depositions in a meeting room for these purposes?
Is this a less formal setting for someone willing to take things less seriously in their depo, like a chat from across a table, or is the deposee (sp) set apart from the lawyers, isolated, as in a real witness stand situation so that the witness is not overly casual with the environment?
First, apologies for taking so long to get to this today Kleat.
Within the courthouse, there are several “conference rooms” which are equipped from an AV perspective.
The Interviewer and interviewee do sit at opposite sides of the table, with the stenographer usually at the end of the table close enough to obviously hear them and be able to read back if requested by the DA. The DA is able to swear in the witness and the subject matter is BROAD. This is actually an investigative tool as well as evidence for the possibility of impeachment and a deposition prior to trial is a luxury really to the state. Because of the extended immunity protections afforded the witness, there is very little objections unless the material goes to something under an existing order ( Zip It)
B
713, thanks Blink for responding. I really, really hope you’re right.
Momof3, good point about the purses and shoes, but for the purse (work bag) bet they were not real leather– a Target look-alike maybe.
I think Cindy gave a clue about why the ‘ca’r, and as Cindy said to FBI on July 30 last year, AND ‘evidence’ was left parked and not ditched somewhere in a river etc if Casey had done something. It’s clear that Casey wanted to start the ball rolling on the ‘kidnapper’ scenario and she had already primed her mother with all the clues, all the places she was at, all these little things to set her ‘Mom in Motion’. According to Cindy, Casey would have known her mother drove by Amscot to and from work each morning and late afternoon and that also, in Cindy’s statement, would have seen the car.
Cindy did not want to believe that Casey would leave the car right there for Cindy to view.
Cindy also said in the state depo that there were two white Pontiac Sunfires in their home area that they were aware of, but that Casey’s car had the black bra on the front, the other car did not. Casey’s car positioned as it was, front facing forward in the space, would have made the front with it’s black bra, noticeable.
Why didn’t Cindy see the car on her way home on Friday the 27th? That was a bit of a gamble, if Casey wanted her mom to see it. But what if Casey also knew that her dad use that Amscot and that she may have thought he would be doing that on Saturday before work, for some reason, near the end of the month.
IF, (just supposing) Cindy OR George had seen the car there. We know that if George saw it there on a visit to Amscot, Cindy would also have been made aware. But George may have wondered what kind of party had happened in the car, why a black bag with papers etc, would be left there and maybe done a ‘tour of inspection’ around the car exterior and he may have noticed the smell or not, at that date.
Cindy, on the other hand, as we know from her past behaviours of George questioning anything about Casey, would have taken the position of ‘I’ll handle it’ and maybe waited to see if Casey would have a chance to come back and get it.
If this was the situation, knew about the car on the weekend, would she have been relieved that the car had been picked up by Monday morning– before she drove by on her way to work? (Cindy did not leave the home before 7 am for her earlier shift, iirc)
So, why didn’t Cindy see the car if this is what Casey thought would happen? Seems Casey’s stories have lack of joining all the pieces together– greatly embellished, good memory of names, details, but thinking ahead was a problem as she maybe got caught up in all her details and didn’t run some ‘what if’s', such as ‘what if’ the real Sawgrass ZG was located and had an alibi– just plain stupid not to think this through. (Casey might have needed to take the 30,000 foot viewpoint)
Just a comment on something I’ve been thinking about as I review old documents — IMO one of the most damaging things to KC’s story about the nanny is found in her resume that George found. She claimed that her most recent job experience was as a nanny. George questioned her, said it made no sense to him that she would write that she was a nanny because that was something she was thinking about doing, as she claimed.
Who in the world would lie and say she was a nanny when she supposedly had this terrific job as an event planner?!?! I’ll tell you who — someone who was very well aware that she was lying to everyone about her job with Universal and having a nanny, who knew she could not keep up the lie forever, who might have even been contemplating finding a new job. The event planner claim would have never flown with a prospective employer, who could have easily verified with Universal. Claiming to be a nanny, however, would fill in the time blanks in her employment history, and would be easier to lie about, ie “my former employers moved two months ago and I had their number in my other phone which I lost”.
In addition, this resume proves, without her having to say a word, that Casey had no job and therefore had no nanny. It proves that she premeditatively made up cover stories and was well aware of the truth.
Sorry to go on so — maybe it’s not such a big deal, but for some reason this just seemed like a big “aha!” to me.
Steadychick, do you think that Casey had her name on that version of her resume that George saw, but she was really creating a new identity/persona for herself, maybe to add in a new name later, like ZG?
Yeah, it’s what she may have been thinking of herself as– an experienced nanny for ‘that child’, the child that her mother wants, the child that she will be able to move on from to another ‘job’. Maybe she was thinking that this is all she was qualified to do, be a ‘nanny’, let the ‘mama’ doll play the ‘mommy’ in her playtime with Caylee perhaps, Casey could play the nanny… or at least, not be ‘mom’ in private with Caylee.
Good point on the references for a nanny job vs the professional event planner job that would normally require some pre-req training/education which she did not have.
I wonder how much of a role, the psychologists will have in understanding Casey, and how this will be shared with the jury. Will the state and the defense even agree on this?
Kleat, #818, another thing she didn’t think about was that Tony might tell the truth about that day — that he picked her up, and that she claimed she ran out of gas and she (or her dad) would take care of it. If the car at Amscot was a set-up for Cindy or George to find, how did she plan on avoiding the truth coming out? I guess maybe she just never thought that Tony and her parents would meet.
# 319 Steadychick. “…who might have been contemplating finding a new job”
You mean a new pretend job. Since she wan’t really contemplating working at anything but snatching Tony L., who was she trying to buffalo/impress?
Thanks, MsEncene, and you too, Kleat!
Steadychick, maybe your point is a good thought to follow.
Not the why’s and what’s as we have been discussing, but those ‘holes’ or apparent ‘holes’ in Casey’s scenarios/storylines, that don’t fit or can’t be excused by ‘the nanny person told me to say, do, steal, lie, party, go this place and that’.
That is a simple ‘cover all’– but why can’t Casey come up with the ‘real’ story now that there is really nothing to lose, but only gain, to prove who was holding her marionette strings?
What was Casey wanting the story to ‘uncover’– or could she just be sloppy with problems in her story because she could excuse essentially EVERYTHING, with being the fearful puppet-victim.
kleat, casey can’t tell the real story because the killer nanny is still on the loose. Look what she did to Caylee when she thought Casey had talked to the cops. The family is obviously still in terrible danger.
There was no nanny suz (which we all know) — that’s my point. Casey as good as admitted in that resume that she had no event planner job and no nanny. IMO the defense can’t use the nanny defense and they’re certainly not going to put Casey on the stand to change her story.
Like so many, I am so tired of all this. Jose, if you’re listening, this needs to be over. It’s way past time. If I wasn’t so fascinated by this case, I would be the perfect reasonable person to be on the jury. I would be able to withhold judgment until hearing all the evidence. You can leave out the chloroform, the bottles, the syringe — they would not be the persuaders, even if proven to be connected to the case. But the basic, logical, and yes circumstantial evidence is overwhelming. 31 days, never calling LE, being the one in control of the child = responsible for the child’s death, no matter how it happened.
Jose, you have taken this to the point of disgust. And ANY juror will be just as disgusted. And IMO you won’t be able to get past that disgust. Everything that’s presented will show how she has avoided taking responsibility for years. It will be crystal clear that not admitting to Caylee’s death is just a continuation of this pattern, and the juror’s won’t like it. Give it up already. Have her take responsibility for what happened.
steadychick, I think casey et al are gambling on a mistrial. In fact, I think casey has actually said that (well, not the gambling part, but the mistrial). Who knows, maybe the state will screw up in some major way. Hard to imagine, but I guess it’s a possibility. These things do happen.

Aug 25, 2008 – text excerpt: “And in another disturbing twist, photos obtained by GLOBE show Caylee with a bruise on her face just below her left eye.
While an insider insists Caylee hurt herself by running into a table, questions remain about whether she was the subject of abuse after a hairdresser said she’d seen the tot with “bruises on her arms and body and a mark on her eye.” (NOTE: It appears that Ricardo cooperated with this article and may have supplied the photos of Caylee in the Big Trouble shirt?)
Oct 20, 2008 – text excerpt: (with photo of Ricardo) “In an exclusive interview with GLOBE, Casey’s ex-lover Ricardo Morales notes the sinister plot may have been hatched as early as March…..” “Morales says Casey was chomping at the bit to join him and three other pals on a weeklong trip to Isabela, Puerto Rico, from July 8 to 15.” “Something like this could have sent Casey over the edge,” Morales, 24, tells GLOBE.” “In hidsight, it looks like she planned the whole thing, maybe because she couldn’t come to Puerto Rico with us.”
mistrial then how is Casey going to pay the bills for a second defense? There might be limits to what she can do in the way of harm as she proceeds along her path of destruction. Would Baez be there for a second go-around or would something bigger and better take his interest?
He did seem to be more low-key in his camera op yesterday, could be for various reasons, but he didn’t seem to suck it up and put on a smiley optomistic face this time, not in his usually spunky manner.
Could Mallory’s deposition have had that kind of impact? Could she have had personal information about Baez’s handling of things, that he might not have wanted to become known? Could she have revealed what she knew about the source of funding from her own observations?
Could Mallory be prevented from revealing secrets learned from Lee, should they decide to marry before the trial? How does priv, extend?

Good, Blink– I don’t get how the Anthony ‘couple’ could claim marital priv. in the depositions as Brad Conway argued. I assume they were delaying, and look what happened in that civil case– worked out for them. But that’s a different situation in the defamation suit, thanks for the reminder– not so with the crime against a child.
Thanks Kleat I am always in awe of your well thought out insights such as post #818
Regarding your post,
During this time period Casey supposedly went from not over drinking- never doing drugs to a bar hopping messy drunk (Tony says one night he had to put her to bed and listen to her ramble on about becoming the next Avril Lavene) and a pothead- who sat around daily playing- “Pass The Dutchie On The Left Hand Side” with Tony and his roommates.
IMO this would account for her not being able to see the whole picture. Her short term memory would have been effected- especially for someone who was supposedly Nancy Reagan before hand. KWIM
I’ve often wondered why casey didn’t just go to puerto rico with the gang since she had freed herself up from her responsibilities, so to speak. I guess because she was broke?
Thinker, is that something new? (I haven’t waited for the docs to load yet). If so, why repeat the ‘latent lift’ bench notes request mistake? The FBI, as we know from Blink’s earlier article that illuminated us all on the difference of friction ridges and latent lifts, was never requested to process any latent lifts.
Friday the 13th and the prosecution keeps up with the document releases– and adds another expert witness– now what could he possibly offer? Nothing good at all– not for Casey.
Orlandosentinel reports:
“Prosecutors today also added another expert to their witness list — Dr. James W. Jawitz, an associate professor at the University of Florida.
According to the university’s Web site, Jawitz is an associate professor in the soil and water science department and director of graduate programs.”
Everyone is going way out there and over head on this case! It is a slam dunk. I am not even worried. Won’t lose sleep over this crazy woman and her family.. Why????? The Odds are definately all against her. I dream of a woman in for life for killing her daughter and I deam happily. Justice for Caylee. Love to read here but JeeZ? What good is it to worry day to day?
If Casey does tell “the real story” by trial time, how is she going to get it all out there? Not by testifying herself, surely. She’d be a candidate for Ms. Mincemeat after SA got through with her. So, could Jose just get up in court and stream more stories as Garegos did for Scott Peterson? Without Casey herself taking the stand, that technique won’t fly, surely. Isn’t the defense team already on plan C? I confess to not getting it. How much can they base the defense on “junk science”? There is so much other evidence.
If she tells before trial a different story other than “Nanny took her and then killed her”, Casey has to reveal circumstances of Caylee’s disappearance and demise. She then has to tell a believable story of just when, who, why and how. Believable being the key word, here. She’s got to name the person and why she covered for that person for so long, the self-sacrificing little dear.
I meant to add this: according to websites discussing Diane Fanning’s book “Mommy’s Little Girl”, the mysterious one-half credit which Cindy claimed prevented Casey from graduating was a “mistruth”.
According to Fanning, Casey’s high school friends told her that Casey just stopped going in her senior year. Cindy and George learned two or three days before graduation that Casey was not graduating and Cindy let her patents actually meet them at the school for the ceremony. Cindy then delivered the news. Casey told her parents that she had not been given credit for an on-line class she had taken from Colonial so she couldn’t graduate.
Colonial offered no on-line classes at that time. Wonder if Cindy fought the school over that non-existant class credit.
The grandparents were sworn to secrecy not to tell anyone else in the family. And later, there was a grad party with presents. The rest of Cindy’s family, her brothers included, didn’t learn about Casey not graduating until after Caylee’s disappearance.
One more thing, Casey couldn’t have made all that missed work up in summer school, so George’s musings and puzzlement about why Casey didn’t make up the “half credit” in summer school is George baloney.
Not news, but one cannot believe a thing that comes out of this family’s mouths. Any of their mouths. I’d love to see Mallory’s depo. I’ll bet “mistruths” are catching.
I tried to get the book today. Thought it would be front and center at Border’s. Not only didn’t they have it displayed, they hadn’t heard of it, but offered to order it for me. I guess it’s a regional interest! lol.
kleat, what’s your take on this expert? Soil matches? Or “the remains site was TOO underwater”?
I’m going with the latter.
Hi Blink & crew. I am a long time lurker. Being a grandma of the shrunken brain, I have never posted a comment before.
I have been rereading your articles. You have made it clear that you are convinced that George and Cindy discovered something while doing yard work on July 3rd that made Cindy start a serious search for Casey.
Do you think it’s possible they actually found Caylee under the play house? I can visualize George flinging a 35 pound sack.
Even though Caylee was the one person in George’s life who loved him unconditionally, he is and was firmly situated under Cindy’s thumb.
Could the pavers in the swamp that Dominic Casey was so interested in, have once been the floor of the play house? Could the weed barrier found near Caylee have been under those pavers? I can’t find where I read this but I think it said that George and Cindy poured a concrete slab on the site where the play house used to be over the July 4th holiday. Of course, I did read a lot of absurd writings before I found Blink.
I appreciate the enormous amount of work that Blink and posters put into this sad case. I shall return to lurking now.
Kleat,
#838…Hopefully the State’s just securing those last nails in her coffin with Dr. Jawitz’s testimony.

Boy, sorry I got your name so wrong in the last post. It was terribly “mis” spelled. Misspelled:(Date: 1655: to spell incorrectly).
mis-prefix (infl, en, prefix, cat=prefixes)
1.bad, badly, wrong, wrongly 2.lack or failure.
It’s just so fascinating how Cindy came up with “mistruths”. No such word exists in Webster’s dictionary. And yet I have seen references of it being used by-guess who?…. Politicians, good guess. In a world of spin, it softens the position of outright calling someone a liar. But really it is a meaningless word. If the truth is prefixed by “mis”, then it is bad, a failure or lacks truth. If it is a failure of truth, then it is not truth.
Main Entry: truth
Pronunciation: \ˈtrüth\
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural truths \ˈtrüthz, ˈtrüths\
Etymology: Middle English trewthe, from Old English trēowth fidelity; akin to Old English trēowe faithful — more at true
Date: before 12th century
1 a archaic : fidelity, constancy b : sincerity in action, character, and utterance 2 a (1) : the state of being the case : fact (2) : the body of real things, events, and facts : actuality (3) often capitalized : a transcendent fundamental or spiritual reality b : a judgment, proposition, or idea that is true or accepted as true c : the body of true statements and propositions 3 a : the property (as of a statement) of being in accord with fact or reality b chiefly British : true 2 c : fidelity to an original or to a standard 4 capitalized Christian Science : god
— in truth : in accordance with fact : actually
Sorry, I don’t know why I am waxing philosophic today.
“Cindy let her patents actually meet them at the school for the ceremony. Cindy then delivered the news.” This sounds a lot like the circumstances where Casey took the police all the way down the hall to her “office” at Universal. Apple and tree?
Also, it is interesting to note that Casey’s behavior was troublesome all the way back to high school, and was not a consequence of hanging out with her new found friends as some have asserted.
I’m guessing that the soil studies will show by-products of decomposition in the soil beneath where Caylee’s little body was placed. If the body had been placed when Mac and Jose are claiming — after Casey was incarcerated — perhaps decomp. would have been too advanced to show up in the soil. Would the body have been skeletonized by then? One more piece of “junk” science for the defense to refute. They can’t seriously think the jury will believe that “all” of the science in this case is “junk”, can they?
suz, I’m thinking he will speak to the conditions at the crime scene, how and when the water filled and was retained at the site, how and when the water levels dropped. There must be a point where the surface water has evaporated and the soil begins to find it’s equilibrium again with the atmosphere and how long this would take– would the process still have been in progress in mid-December? (ie: how deep was the effect of the surface water and was it still in a ‘drying curve’ through December?). He could talk about the effects of ‘flow’ of water, or lack of, in this crime scene swamp, and maybe he has provided the foundation of information for the biologists to use in their evaluations of the root growth during that summer and fall.
It seems that there is no flow through of water in this area, the defense could speculate that the water was very high one day, then within hours, the level would drop, as if the source of the water was controlled and could be diverted or shut off– ie: this area was overflow water and it would not be normal for water to pool in that area for long, only ‘when necessary’. (as IF there’s a flood ‘gate’ system and this area– that could explain why the area was filled, then levels dropped when the flow was diverted elsewhere, or shut off)
And don’t forget the additional contemporary aerial photo resource of that ‘green area’, which could show ‘retention ponds’ (or lower areas) as noted by Mark NeJame in his press conference so interuptus rudus. Perhaps these areas showing ‘surface water’ (black areas on the photos which we can hardly see in our low res versions so can’t really judge at all) could provide information to Dr. Jawitz in his interpretation of the swamp water ‘system’– for example, these haven’t yet evaporated so could this suggest the bigger picture of the water levels that are not able to be seen under the foliage– ie: what is the elevation of that surface of water, and is it the same as at the crime scene level and can it help ‘map’ the flooded levels?

Quoting Blink’s article “Caylee/Casey Anthony Case EXCLUSIVE: New Prosecution Witness Sean Henady”
with Henady’s statement:
___________________________
Sean Henady… spoke exclusively today to blinkoncrime. This will be his only statement regarding the Caylee Anthony case until it’s conclusion.
>In August and again in November of 2008, my services were requested by Texas Equusearch for aerial >mapping in their efforts to locate missing toddler Caylee Anthony. In November only, my participation >expanded to asissting with coordination of the search effort on the ground.
>The complete case file, which includes information and Imagery from my office, has been provided to >both the Orange County Sheriff’s Office and the defense counsel for Casey Marie Anthony as >mandated by the discovery process. Every Image from my office was marked “Confidential Not For >Public Distribution.”
——————————-
I’m guessing that Henady’s photographs will have been shown to Dr. Jawitz– ya think??! Hand in hand…
And–a note to the timing of the announcment of the new witness yesterday, so that Mr. Dominic Casey can more ‘clearly’ refresh his memory re: his ‘staged searching of the crime scene to prove it’s not YET a crime scene’ in preparation for his December ‘court ordered’ deposition date? DC has successfully got out of each and every depo to date, except for the statements he gave under oath to Judge Rodriguez of course– (gotta love that ‘clarification’ by Mr. Mitnik and sidekick J.D.!! The state owes those lawyers a cup of coffee, their dime!~~)http://blinkoncrime.com/wp-content/themes/Marque/images/submit_over.jpg
