911 calls could be admitted into Casey Anthony murder trial
July 14, 2010
<snipped>
Casey Anthony may be face-to-face with her mother and brother this week if they take the stand in an Orlando, Florida courtroom. Cindy Anthony and her son Lee may testify at a hearing Thursday afternoon. The State is expected to argue that 911 calls placed by Cindy Anthony in July 2008 should be admitted at her daughter’s murder trial next year. The defense says the taped phone calls are hearsay and should not be admitted.
The hearing comes two years after two-year-old Caylee Anthony was reported missing on July 15, 2008. Casey Anthony’s family had not seen Anthony or her daughter since June 16, 2008. When Cindy Anthony found her daughter a month later, Caylee wasn't with her. Cindy Anthony threatened to call the police, hoping the threat would force Casey Anthony to describe where her daughter was. After two calls were placed to the police, Casey Anthony admitted to her brother that she hadn't seen Caylee in 31 days and that she believed her daughter was with the nanny, Zenaida Gonzalez.
The third and final call was placed immediately after Cindy Anthony overheard what Casey Anthony told her brother. Cindy Anthony appeared to be agitated and excited as she told the dispatcher that her granddaughter had been missing for a month and that her daughter’s car smelled “like there’s been a dead body” in it.
Cindy Anthony has since explained that the odor emanating from the car could have been from rotting garbage. However, the State believes that Caylee’s decomposing body was in the trunk of the car at some point in late June 2008.
Thursday’s hearing is also expected to focus on a motion from the defense. They’ll ask the judge to modify a ruling by Judge Stan Strickland, who stepped aside in April. The motion concerns a review of documents from Texas Equusearch, a private company that assisted in the search for then-missing Caylee. While Strickland’s order allowed the defense attorneys to review thousands of documents created by TES, the attorneys were prohibited from taking notes during the review. The defense maintains the current arrangement is inefficient and they’re seeking a more workable resolution.
