one two three four FIVE TO BUMP this thread
In light of the defense's depo of Dr. G and their subsequent remarks to the press -
Bumping for their benefit in case someone from their camp wants to read and get a clue!
Or a rug.
http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/en...ony-wesh-explores-the-focus-on-duct-tape.htmlWESH-Ch. 2s Bob Kealing tonight examined how Casey Anthonys defense is challenging what has been said about the duct tape. Casey Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her daughter. Defense attorney Cheney Mason said there was some tape on the childs hair, but none was over her airways.
Kealing listed what others have said: Prosecutors say the tape was over Caylees mouth. Dr. Jan Garavaglia said the tape was placed over Caylees lower skull before decomposition. Roy Kronk, the meter reader who found the childs remains, has testified that the tape was on the skull and over the mouth.
Kealing turned to local attorney Richard Hornsby for analysis, and he said the defense could argue that tape was used for another reason, such as wrapping up the child in a bag. Kealing concluded that jurors will decide for themselves when they look at photographs that havent been made public yet.
In a later report, Kealing examined similarities between the Anthony case and that of Scott Peterson, the California man who was sentenced to die for the murder of his wife and unborn child. In both cases, the victims cause of death was never determined, Kealing noted. The jurors later explained that they recommended death for Peterson because he betrayed his responsibility to protect his wife and unborn child.

The defense can try and spin this all they like but when those jurors get a look at the autopsy photos, it will be a done deal for ICA..the defense will loose credibility if they try and minimize this evil deed...Dr. G has credibility on her side and she will speak with an informed tongue, not a forked tongue as the defense is....JMHO
Justice for Caylee

Wonder if Cindy had any wool throw rugs around the house, like a Flokati (I believe that's what they're called). Black might be an unusual color for Florida though. Also, Target sometimes has nice sweaters on clearance that are part wool or cashmere. Casey might have bought something with Cindy's credit card and had it in the truck.

Have any studies been done on what length of time after death, in high temperatures, the skin remains able to have tape adhere to it?
I googled and searched here to no avail (but found some good links to WSers' work both here and on other sites, go team).
I think that is why the placement of the duct tape on little Caylee is so compelling as it was stuck to the hair and held the mandible in place.
RS&BBM, and thanks wenwe for the response...
I'm trying to see where the defense (keep trying to type "offense") is going...
What I am afraid of is that the defense will say that because the tape was held to the remains via the hair, there is no evidence that it was applied before decomposition set in enough to inhibit adhesiveness from tape to skin. In this scenario, the tape was applied after decomp set in/after KC likely last had contact with the corpse, and the hair was used to adhere the tape over the face... And KC didn't do it, and even if she did she didn't put the tape on...
Does any of that make sense?
I don't believe this, and I don't like typing it. But we cannot underestimate the depths to which the defense will sink as they grasp for a plausible straw... :furious:
