Ok it's probably poor taste to link to my own thread but Russell mentioned that he didn't believe the smell in the trunk partly because all of the law enforcement who came to the house that night didn't smell anything.
Here's what I heard:
VP: Do you believe Caylee Anthony's remains were in Casey's car in the trunk?
RH: I had a hard time believing that, especially with just, you know, the one hair being found, uh, I don't think there was the evidence of the chloroform, you know, we really, I, I meant to say I personally I didn't buy it, because I thought there was such so low levels, that it could have been attributed, you know, to possibly cleaning products, uhn and then with the one hair. And then, they showed us a picture of a stain, I didn't see a picture of a stain, that could have been, you know, decomposing material. Um, getting back with George, if George was...
VP: How about...
RH: You know, with him being an ex-police officer, if he would have smelled a decomposing body when they picked up the car from the, from the uh, tow yard, you know, why didn't he, why didn't the tow driver call law enforcement right away? Why did they take the vehicle home and try to clean it?
VP: So you, here's a question Russ, (fumbling) so you think all of the people that smelled the smell of death, because it was a big part of the case, you did not find their testimony credible, any of them?
RH: Well you gotta remember, a number of law enforcement officers responded on July the 15th and none of them smelled the odor.

Jose's Who Smelled What Chart
Jose spun that list out of the air, after admonishing them to use the actual evidence. The jury did not remember the testimony of those witnesses, or at least Russ didn't. ALL of the LE smelled something that night except one.
This troubles me, as well as use of the word "we".
