Casey Anthony and OJ Simpson Shared the Same Lead Investigator

"This case was the sweetest victory of all the cases I have ever worked because there was so much hatred toward Casey and her lawyers. We had no money, no resources and we were working against a firestorm of bad press," McKenna said.

He also says George and Cindy Anthony were not cooperative with him at first, even though he was there to help their daughter.

"George was bizarre. He would go around and around for hours and he wouldn't answer a question directly. And he is a former detective, so he knows the drill. There was something off with this guy," McKenna said.

He shared his instincts with Baez and suggested looking into the family dynamics - and any dark secrets -- of the Anthony family.

Caylee's law coming to Indiana

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WTHI) - Talks at the Indiana Statehouse on Thursday could bring Caylee's law to the Hoosier State. State legislatures are looking to add a law to books requiring parents or guardians to report missing children within the same time from that you're required to report dead bodies. The time limitations for that are three hours.

The best we can do is to examine the facts and hope that all parties iwill be able to set their feelings aside and let the law be their guide.
Here are the facts of his case for review. We report. You decide:

Jackson doctor asks to sequester jury during trial

The doctor charged in Michael Jackson's death has asked a judge to sequester jurors in the physician's upcoming involuntary manslaughter trial, citing coverage of the Casey Anthony case and the threat of information leaks posed by Twitter and Facebook use.

The filing also cites the danger of jurors learning about the case through social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Both sides are blocked by the court's public wireless network inside the criminal courthouse, but the motion notes that jurors could access the sites on their phones or when they're outside court.

"There is great danger that Dr. Murray will not be able to rely on a fair trial, if the jury is allowed access to this prejudicial coverage," the motion states.

'Yes she is back in Florida,' Mr Baez said. 'We brought her back in event that the appellate court rules some time this week. And we're going to follow the law. Whatever the courts decide we're going to go along and follow the law and I'm certain she is going to do what's asked of her but hopefully it won't come to that.'

After more than two hours of screening potential jurors, attorneys on both sides agreed Friday to a panel of 12 men and two women.

At one point, Biskupic asked potential jurors if they believed that someone who appears positive on the outside could also harbor "a dark side."

He also asked whether any potential juror would be affected by the recent Casey Anthony verdict, in which Anthony was acquitted of killing her young daughter in Florida
