2011.06.08 TRIAL Day Thirteen (Afternoon Session)

[Hisimage]

2:43 p.m. There goes JB's attempt to accuse GA of doing the search, since GA would have been en route to work!

Yes, thats his plan , but it was an hour later than he thought. (?) JB: 1:43 but it was 2:43.

LDB: "Have you yourself attended many trainings in the area?"

KS: "I have, as I stated I have attended all the conferences of IASIS since 1996 and attended training through guidance software both in classes and in conferences where i have not only attended training but I have presenting training classes I've also attended training through classes put on by a company called access data and another company called syquest. I've presented classes for the university of central Florida both as a lecturer and a subject matter expert."

LDB: "Have you ever had the opportunity to testify in court as an expert in computer forensics?"

KS: "I've testified in both state and federal court and as expert in computer forensics."

LDB: "your Honor at this time we would tender the witness for either voir dire or submission as an expert who can give opinions."

JB: "No objections sir."

HJBP: "Okay, ladies and gentlemen of the jury Sergeant Stenger. will be accepted as an expert witness in the area of forensic computer analysis. You may proceed."

LDB: "Thank you. Sergeant Stenger in connection with your employment at the Orange County Sheriff's Office were you supervising Sandra Osborne in the recovery of information seized or given to the Sheriff's Office by the Anthony family?"

KS: "I was."

LDB: "Okay can you explain to the jury what your role was in this endeavor?"

KS: "As far as the examination goes, I would review Det. Osborne's work, in the field it is referred to as peer review where you have somebody else go back over you examination in addition if Detective Osborne encountered something that she was unfamiliar with I would assist her with it."

LDB: "Were you made aware of a keyword search for the word chloroform that was done on the HP?"

KS: "I was."

LDB: "Once you were made aware of that search did you take an active role in an attempt to preserve the information as a result of the keyword search?"

KS: "I did, Detective Osborne observed a search hit for the word chloroform on the computer and asked my assistance in identifying in what context that word appeared she knew it was an internet search but she was unfamiliar of the structure of what it was in. this particular keyword was in what is called unallocated space."

LDB: "What is that?"

KS: "Many of you I'm sure are aware that when you delete a file, it is not necessarily gone. The best analogy I have for you as far as what unallocated space it, is a library. Many people use different types of analogies but the library is probably the easiest. Hopefully most of you remember back in the days when they had card catalogs, you used to go and look up the name of your book in the card catalog you would then find out where that book was stored on the shelves. Computers use something similar. In order for a computer to find a file, it has to essentially look up the name of that file before it can go out on a hard drive and locate it. What happens when something becomes unallocated is that that card that entry essentially gets destroyed and there is not longer any reference as to where that file is on the hard drive, however the data out there is still there. That book is still on the shelf. So, the information was still out there. I recognized what type of file that was from the structure as an internet history record from Mozilla FireFox. It is an old version of Mozilla in what is called a Morq data base. Yes, supposedly the developer was evidently a fan of the television show."

LDB: "So what is Mozilla FireFox?"

KS: "It is an Internet history browser. I'm sure most of you are familiar with Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla FireFox is another type of Internet history browser."

LDB: "Do you have knowledge if this history browser automatically deletes history, does it clear the history on it's own or is that done manually by a user? "

KS: "I am not aware that it clears records automatically. It's possible, I would imagine to set it to do so... but uh, normally it does not do it automatically."

 

[MelissaLee]

LOL! (again) SA's IT guy shaking his head behind JB as he's talking/making suggestions.

 

[Mountain_Kat]

How do we know the page wasn't simply left open while going to myspace? I do it all the time.

 

[Mendara]

Did he just say the "chloroform search" was an ad?

 

[luvmy4brats]

JB is frustrated already.. He's doing his head twitch. he did it right after Stenger told him it was an ad and not moving to another page.

 

[JustMeDeb]

Does Jose not know about or understand Pop Up ads? Sorry, the geek in me wants to scream at his questions

 

[sleutherontheside]

Somebody did a specific search for chloroform!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BAM

 

[MissDiva]

What IS the ok timeframe to search for chloroform? Are we talking six seconds? Eight? At what point does searching for chloroform go from being completely innocent to something more devious?

 

[Oldsoul2]

Why would Jb push the issue about two people using the computer? He says she accidentally drowned and GA helped....is he trying to imply now that it was premeditated by George???? and not KC....seriously Jose....suffers from hoping by confusing people, he will be able to get around common sense....same as his client. Also we have to remember the anthonys have a pool....some of the same ingredients to make chloroform exists in pool solutions...she didn't have to buy it off the net, she just needed to know what to mix together.

 

[Mendara]

Someone searched for the word chloroform and then went on to myspace.

 

[MelissaLee]

Witness thwarts JB again "No, someone did a SPECIFIC search for chloroform" before going to MS

 

[ZsaZsa]

So, whoever looked up Chloroform went from that site directly to MySpace- Hmmm let me guess who that was?

 

[outlandishone]

"someone did a specific search for chloroform"

 

[logicalgirl]

Mozilla Firefox also offers private browsing where no record of browsing history is stored.

According to my Firefox that I have been deleting, he is talking about a separate section of the history that is on the hard drive - not the drop down menu on Firefox as you open it.

I have nothing on my drop down, but it goes back to 2009 on the hard drive - very interesting to see just what I was looking at back then.

Orlando media outlets and certain websites about ICA....:great:

 

[Harmony 2]

I'm confused here too, Mountain Kat. Why wasn't that addressed, I wonder, as well as more details about the actual searches. Is there yet another computer expert that will have to testify to those? :waitasec:

Yes there is another computer expert... I am not sure if he is going to testify but I hope so...

 

[Softail]

WOW - JB just pointed out that "whoever" did the chloroform search - went to MySpace 10 seconds later!

This is huge. CA & GA did not have MySpace!

Thank you Mr. Baez!

 

[Moe]

Chloroform search then went to My Space, CA did not open her account until Caylee went missing... Baez flubs again.

 

[kantoo]

Stenger's says someone did a specific search for chloroform and then went to MySpace. #CaseyAnthony -fellby cfnews13casey via twitter at 1:03 PM

 

[coloradoteacher]

Did he just say the "chloroform search" was an ad?
