Defense Witness List

  • #241
Maybe Dr. Huntington didn't like what he saw at OCSD and kept on trooping right on out of there and down the road. LOL :Bicicleta:

I remember with the Scott Peterson case Lee was on their list but they never ever called him....

No blood splatter for Dr Lee to speculate about or get all theatrical about in court. I think his role here, was to find fault with the gathering, handling and storing of evidence by OCSD personel.

Jeff Ashton has been asking for months about the experts and Baez removes people instead of adding them to subsequent witness lists.

Now you see them, Now you dont. Ya cant' depose them Jeff, if I don't tell you, who they are. :snooty:

Will Cathy Reichs and Werner Spitz make the cut? The only two, IIRC that examined Caylee's remains......

Jeff Ashton thinks...... right two can play at that game. :dance: Motion to compel additional discovery with jam on.

:waitasec: I don't remember seeing their names on the Defense witness list either...
I remember Werner Spitz examined the remains, I didn't know Reichs did.

Now you see them, now you don't ... true krisskross

Star Witness In Anthony Case Changes Tune

"A year ago, Anthony's defense produced statements from Texas EquuSearch volunteers Laura Buchanan and Joe Jordan that indicated there was nothing in the area off of Suburban Drive where Caylee Anthony's remains were later found.

Jordan later told detectives that was not his claim, and a source with knowledge of Buchanan's recent sworn deposition said her statement has changed as well."

http://www.wesh.com/r/25926650/detail.html

The source told WESH 2 News that a recent deposition of meter reader Roy Kronk's son, Brandon Sparks, was not helpful to defense efforts to paint Kronk as a potential suspect. Kronk discovered the remains in December 2008.

I think this may be the reason for the looks on KCs and CAs face during the last hearing. IMO

She claims to have and that she was told she would be testifying. There is a video on YouTube, over a year old, where she is touting a book and the interviewer asks her about the Caylee case. I will try and find it.

12/12/2008 - "Guess the defense is pretty confident. She has named off:
Kathy Reichs is already on her way to Florida from Canada - has also written 11 novels
Dr. Werner Spitz - Forensic and Anotomic Pathologist
Dr.Timothy Huntington - Entomologist
Dr. Henry Lee - on standby
They left off Kobi?? "

Emergency Hearing re: remains-UPDATE MOTION DENIED

posted by me July 10, 2010
In the May 6, 2010 JAC Budget Hearing, Baez listed off the experts that he wants Florida tax payers to pay for. Some he named, some he played coy with and would not give the name, but we can match up the names now with the release of the Defense Witness List Supplement released yesterday.
Ashton told the Judge that Kathy Reichs, entomologist had already been announced in open court on Dec. 12, 2008, when Baez was asking for a forensic entomologist. Baez has apparently replaced Kathy Reichs from Canada, with Dr. Timothy Huntington, from Nebraska. Baez said that Dr. Huntington has been on the case since Dec. 11, 2008. I guess the Judge would only allow one forensic entomologist paid by JAC? Kathy Reichs was never on the Defense Witness List.

Kathy Reichs in not an entomologist. She is a forensic anthropoligist which is more akin to the taphonomy expert, the defense is now seeking. Dr Huntington was amongst those named by LKB at the December 12th 2008 hearing.

I'm thinking that the "50" penalty phase witnesses are most likely very reluctant witnesses, and not at all happy that they are being put on the Defense penalty phase witness list. They have no choice in the matter. They have been issued a subpoena to testify, and they must do so unless they can hire an attorney to successfully quash their subpoena. I highly doubt that ANY of those witnesses volunteered to testify in Inmate Anthony's defense.
Also, just because a person is put on a witness list, it does not mean they will definitely be called to testify.


I agree with logicalgirl - comment brought over from the Hearing thread:

logicalgirl said: "Maybe a teensy correction Mitzi - she said she had 50 people on her list - but she also said maybe none of them would make a statement - she didn't know. In other words, IMO - it is just a list of names on a piece of paper at this state. Just as well she is having it sealed, because I'd guess she has at least 45 people on that list who don't know they are on it and will refuse to testify. "

Ok...call me confused once again. Didn't JA say something in court yesterday about their (defense) forensic anthropologist? Something about how they thought they would be testifying about one thing, but they find out they're now (possibly) testifying about the "odor"? Who the heck was named as their forensic anthropoligist?

PS- sorry...at this late stage, hard to keep anything straight.

11/30/2010 Amended Defense Witness List

Latest entry on the Clerk of Courts records.

  • #256

Among those on the list:

•Dr. Henry Lee, the well-known criminalist and forensic pathologist often associated with the O.J. Simpson case. According to his website, Lee is founder and professor of the Forensic Science Program at the University of New Haven. During a 40-year period, Lee assisted with the investigations of some 6,000 cases.

• Dr. Tim Huntington, an assistant professor at Concordia University, Nebraska, and a board-certified entomologist. Forensic entomology applies the study of insects to a legal context to help establish times of death and postmortem movement of bodies.

• Richard Eikelenboom, a renowned Dutch forensic expert who, along with his wife Selma, is a partner at Independent Forensic Services, a Netherlands lab specializing in trace evidence recovery and Touch DNA testing. They are considered pioneers in the field of "Touch DNA." Richard Eikelenboom is a DNA expert who handles blood-pattern analysis.

Other experts listed by the defense are:
Dr. Werner Spitz, from Michigan;
Dr. Kathy Reichs, of North Carolina;
Dr. Jane H. Bock, of the University of Colorado Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Department;
Dr. Scott Fairgrieve, chair of the Department of Forensic Science at Laurentian University in Ontario;
Dr. Kenneth Furton, of University Medical & Forensic Consultants, Inc., in West Palm Beach;
Dr. Barry Logan of National Medical Services, Inc., in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania;
Dr. John Leeson, of Winter Springs;
Dr. William Rodriguez, of Maryland;
Dr. Michael Freeman, forensic epidemiologist;
Michael O'Kelly, an expert witness out of Nebraska.

I wonder if any of these high priced experts even know they are on the "list".
 
  • #258
And what happens if the DNA tests come back with no results? Will the expert be eliminated?
 
  • #259
and how many of those experts will we see in court testifying in Miss Anthony's favor? My guess is three.
 
  • #260
Is Mrs. Barrett considered a expert witness? Or what? Is her name under seal until the hearing?
