The stain in the trunk in the shape of a child will be allowed.

An FBI analyst remarked that a stain in the carpet liner from the trunk looked like the outline of a child in the fetal position.

The heart-shaped residue on duct tape found with the remains will be admitted at trial.

Another FBI analyst said that there appeared to be the shape of a heart on that duct tape, leading investigators to try and match heart stickers found at the Anthony home.

K-9's from the Orange and Osceola Sheriff's offices were "alerted" to the presence of human remains in the Anthony backyard, and on Casey's car.

The hair from the trunk of Casey's car that showed signs of decomposition will be allowed.


Judge Perry hasn’t ruled on the following motions yet:

Testimony of the state's expert botanist has not been decided by the judge.

The air samples from the trunk of Casey's car.

Tests conducted by scientists at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Tennessee indicates decomposition in the trunk of Casey's car.

The tests showing high levels of chloroform in the trunk of Casey's car.

Searches for chloroform on Anthony’s computer either.

An ORNL report showed unusually high levels of chloroform in Casey's trunk.

References to the smell of the car.

Judge Allowing Chloroform Evidence In Casey Case

Updated: 5:37 pm EDT April 27, 2011

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Scientist says tests on carpeting from Anthony's trunk found chloroform.
Anthony had also researched how to make chloroform months before Caylee was murdered.

The air tests done on Casey's trunk have never been used in criminal court anywhere.

Prosecutors say it's further proof that could show how Caylee was murdered.

Casey Anthony trial: A judge's visit to Palm Beach County could be a scouting trip for murder trial
"Snip" By Daphne Duret and Susan Spencer-Wendel

Palm Beach Post Staff Writers Thursday, April 28, 2011



WEST PALM BEACH — Look around. A potential juror in arguably the highest-profile murder case in the country could be among your neighbors.

Wednesday fueled speculation that panelists could be chosen from this area.

Chief Judge Belvin Perry of Orlando walked through the courthouse lobby with Chief Judge Peter Blanc and a handful of sheriff's officials.

"I'm just here with my friend," was all Perry said, referring to Blanc.

Jury selection is scheduled to begin May 9 and jurors would be brought to Orlando and sequestered for a trial at the Orange County Courthouse beginning May 17.

The jury selection site will be announced May 6.

Court orders specify that the alternate county must have similar demographics to Orlando's Orange Country - and Palm Beach County is a good match. The two counties have similar education, income, and age and race balances.

Jury administrators for the county courthouse say no one has asked them to request more jurors than usual for the week of May 9, which would have been a sign that jurors would be picked from Palm Beach County.

Perry has been visiting courthouses in other counties to see which ones could properly accommodate jury selection for a case of such magnitude.

Twelve jurors and eight alternates will be selected.
