Ask The Judge: Defense Team, Lesser Charges
Judge O.H. Eaton Jr., WESH Legal Analyst
"Snip" POSTED: 10:27 am EDT June 7, 2011

Question from Joan: Why Isn't Mason Doing More?


Answer from Judge O.H. Eaton: I am as surprised as you are. I thought the defense team had divided up the issues and had assigned different areas according to experience and expertise. Hoping for a new trial based upon a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel is a long shot, and the issue cannot be raised until after a conviction and after an appeal. An appeal can take up to two years.




What Is Sims' Role?

Dear Judge Eaton: I thought Dorothy Sims was the forensics expert on Casey's defense team. So far, Jose Baez has been the one cross examining, and Sims only examined Lee.


See my answer to Joan above. -- Judge O.H. Eaton

2nd dog handler testifies in Casey Anthony trial
Computer expert testifies in Casey Anthony trial

"Snip" Atlanta Journal Constitution National / World News 12:46 p.m. Wednesday, June 8, 2011

Casey Anthony enters the courtroom for the start of the 13th day of her murder trial June 8, 2011, in Orlando, Fla. Anthony is charged with killing her daughter Caylee in the summer of 2008.

Osborne testified that searches were also done on the Anthony family computer for the name Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez. Casey Anthony initially told authorities that a nanny by that name kidnapped her toddler Caylee. But the searches were not until July 16, 2008.

Under cross-examination, defense attorney Baez pointed that though there were two user-created accounts on Anthony's desktop, that didn't mean that no one else could have used the computer for the chloroform searches.

Casey Anthony pleaded not guilty and her defense says Caylee accidentally drowned in the family's swimming pool.

Appeal Issues?
Dear Judge Eaton: Do you think there are any appeal issues that may result in reversal of a conviction? -- Catlina, Bradenton, Fla.


Some of the potential issues on appeal will be: (1) admissibility of Dr. Vass’ testimony on the results of the new and novel scientific test (the “sniff test”); (2) the admissibility of the defendant’s statements to the police; (3) the admissibility of the statements recorded at the jail; (4) the opinions of the medical examiner; (5) the sufficiency of the evidence to establish premeditation (assuming the jury finds the defendant guilty); and (6) the admissibility of the evidence provided by the cadaver dogs. There will no doubt be others. I never predict the ruling of an appellate court. -- Judge O.H. Eaton

By Suevon Lee Staff writer
Published: Wednesday, June 8, 2011 at 2:05 p.m.

Ocala-based attorney Dorothy Clay Sims, signed on as a member of Anthony's defense team in September.

Sims and law partner Elizabeth Stakenborg run a practice in both Ocala and Gainesville that specializes in Social Security disability claims and the cross-examination of medical experts.

Sims' expertise in the latter field — she has written a book entitled “Exposing the Deceptive Defense Doctor” — is the reason many believe she was brought on to Anthony's defense team.

"Snip" Updated: 12:10 pm EDT June 8, 2011

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- A police computer forensics expert took the witness stand Wednesday on day 24 of Casey Anthony's murder trial. Sandra Osborne of the Orange County Sheriff's Office was called by prosecutors to testify about photos and Internet searches on a computer at Casey's home. Prosecutors have said previously that an Internet search on chloroform was conducted with the computer.

Another K-9 Handler Testified today.

Sheaffer said ,the back yard grave suggestion may affect jurors significantly.

“I think they're gonna be horrified that she would attempt to bury that body in the back yard where her parents live,” said Sheaffer.

Prosecutors believe Casey couldn't bury Caylee, so she put the child's body in her trunk for days.

Casey Anthony and the media coverage of her appearance
"Snip" By Sarah Anne Hughes
Newspapers post pictures of a scantily clad and dancing Anthony next to stories about her daughter’s murder. Nancy Grace dubbed her “Tot Mom.” One newscaster even referred to her “” on air. This over-the-top coverage of Anthony’s looks makes it seem like she’s facing two trials: one in a courtroom, the other in the media.

This reaction is not wholly unusual in a woman’s trial. “Had the Salem witch trials been televised, I’m sure [the media] would have been talking about how seductive and satanic they looked,” Michele Weldon, a professor at the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, said in a phone interview. Weldon, who runs a blog about women in the media, Every Woman News, adds “the damnation of women by dress code is not new.”

In conversations with investigators, Adams claimed Anthony made two references to Gonzalez in their correspondence. The first indicated "there was no Zenaida" and "Zenaida didn't do this." The second reference claimed Gonzalez was a childhood friend.

“Anthony said she asked Zenaida Gonzalez to watch Caylee so she could prepare to move away with her daughter.



Lee Anthony, who has also been on the witness stand, was not asked about the alleged abuse, but Casey Anthony wrote to her jailhouse pen pal.

Day 13: Witnesses found 'chloroform' search on Casey Anthony's computer
"Snip" By Jacqueline Fell and Adam Longo, Team Coverage
Last Updated: Wednesday, June 08, 2011 5:24 PM

Kevin StengerSgt. Stenger is the supervisor of the Orange County Sheriff's computer crimes unit. He said he reviewed Osborne's work, and assisted her after she found the search for "chloroform."

Stenger confirmed that the search was found in unallocated "deleted space" on the computer, and said the searches for chloroform were done on the Mozilla Firefox browser from March 17 to March 21, 2008.

He then acknowledged that whoever specifically searched for "chloroform" then visited MySpace afterward.


As prosecutors published Bradley's report to the jury, he confirmed that someone used Google to search for "chloroform" on March 17, 2008.
He said one search returned the Wikipedia entry for chloroform. Other results on Wikipedia included "hand to hand combat," "head injuries," "chest trauma" and "ruptured spleen," all within 15 minutes of each other.

Bradley also said someone searched for "how to make chloraform" on March 21, 2008, noting a spelling error in the search. The user then clicked on a link generated by Google that asked, "Did you mean how to make chloroform?"

Other searches Bradley found included "making weapons of household products" and "neck breaking."

ORLANDO --
It's must-see TV. But rather than watch the Casey Anthony trial on the tube, Olivia Hock, a third-year law student from Barry University, decided to see it live.

"I saw the day when Lee Anthony testified," said Hock, one of many law students sprinkled throughout the long lines waiting for a coveted seat inside the courtroom.

Whether it's inside the courtroom or talked about in a classroom, one thing is certain: Casey Anthony's murder trial has transformed into a language of learning.

Behind the Camera: Day 13 of the Casey Anthony trial
Central Florida News 13
"Snip"
Several people watching the Casey Anthony trial from the gallery said Casey appeared paler on Wednesday, June 8, 2011, than she did the day before.


But as the testimony became tediously computer forensic based, jurors were seen yawning.

Jurors popped up and jotted something in their notebooks when a computer software developer hit on keywords also searched on computer -- neck breaking, ruptured spleen, making weapons out of household cleaners, and the fact that one website about chloroform was visited 84 times.

Jurors appeared to be more attentive.

ORLANDO -- Robyn Adams' mother, Yu-Chieh McDonnell, believes her daughter was destined to befriend Casey Anthony, saying God chose her for this role.

Adams and Casey met in the Orange County Jail in 2008.

"Definitely she is going to tell the truth because the truth sets you free," McDonnell said. "I'm at peace because the truth will be brought forth with right of way. The truth has right of way above everything."

**My Notes from video above: When asked if Robin would get out of jail by testifiying against Casey, Yu-Chieh said that is between God and Robin.

Yu-Chieh also said that Robin really never talked about Casey to her.

She also said that Robin has found God, she is a new being, she has been saved.
