Prosecuting Casey Anthony Page #2

---

blame law enforcement

for not doing enough?

Now, who is he?

I've never heard of him before.

And now he's on TV every night.

He was a jail house referral.

You need a criminal attorney,

you ask a criminal.

[ Chuckles ]

He got a late start.

He's only been practicing

for three years,

but the guy sure can

tell a story.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean

anyone's gonna believe him.

Good evening.

I'm Jane velez-Mitchell

in for Nancy grace.

Tonight, bombshell video

just released

of tot mom Casey Anthony

behind bars.

Hello, beautiful.

I love you.

Hi.

Honey, come in here.

You should see this.

I love you, too.

Why is she crying already?

Well, we haven't seen you.

Cindy:
Someone just said

caylee was dead.

That she drowned in the pool.

That's the newest story

out there.

Surprise, surprise.

You don't know, Casey,

how hard it is.

All I want is my kid back.

She's the most important thing

in the entire world to me.

[ Voice breaking ]

Do you still think she's okay?

Mom, I know in my gut

she's all right.

I can feel she's coming home.

This is when she's been

driving the body around

in the trunk of her car

long enough

to attract maggots

and blowflies.

I'm gonna love

playing this for a jury.

No, I'm asking you...

Jose, do you believe

caylee's dead?

Baez:
Bob, right now,

it's phantom evidence.

We haven't seen it.

The science is going to

speak for itself.

Yeah, saying,

"guilty as charged!"

If it is what they say it is,

we'll deal with it then.

This guy...

he's so smarmy.

Which one?

[ Laughs ]

I got to tell you,

not too many people envy you

your job, consejero.

Ah, "consejero." Like

they have a secret handshake.

Well, they don't know

the Casey that I do.

Well, I'm hoping

to meet her sometime.

I think

you'd be surprised, Bob.

I hope so.

Do you love this?

He's angling for the big story

like he's Geraldo Rivera.

I may have to start calling

you "consejero."

Please don't.

Frank:
This is a hot-body

contest from her favorite club.

She should have won.

Where did you get these?

Casey uploaded them

to her photo account...

by the hundreds.

Girl likes to share.

[ Knock on door ]

I just spoke to oak view labs.

Look at these, Jeff.

Does that look like

the distraught mother

of a kidnapped child?

I hear the FBI's

running DNA tests

on the father and her brother.

Paternity tests?

You're kidding.

Feds are all cynics.

All right, look, are we gonna

keep looking at sexy photos,

or do you want to hear

about the forensics

that might actually

convict her?

You're up. Speak.

The piece of carpet that we sent

in from the trunk of her car...

positive for fatty acids

consistent with human decomp.

That nasty grease

on the paper towel

from the trunk of the car?

Chemically identical

to adipocere,

or "grave wax,"

produced by human decomp.

You really get off on all this

polysyllabic dirty talk.

Can you handle one more?

Lay it on me, baby.

Chloroform.

Chloroform.

Knock-out gas.

In the carpet?

Yeah.

And not found in aisle five

at your local drugstore.

Oh, and I've already asked

the sheriff's department

to run a keyword search

on the anthonys' computer

to see if Casey

bought it online.

Sedation as a cheap babysitter.

All right, any way you look

at it, it's still first-degree.

Mm-hmm.

It doesn't matter if she

gave her too much by accident.

My money?

She deliberately killed caylee,

put her body in the trunk,

and then drove her around

until she could find

a place to dump it

so she could go and party,

which she did.

Paula:
Jeff,

how did the anthonys

believe all those years

of lies... the job, the nanny,

the business trips?

Well, Paula, people believe

what they want to believe.

The way you believed

that you were winning the case?

I did believe

I was winning the case,

and I think a lot of people

felt the same way.

The jury just needed to

be able to connect the dots

in the same way

that everybody else was.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Woman:
Casey Anthony

has just been indicted

for first-degree murder,

aggravated child abuse,

aggravated manslaughter

of a child,

and four counts

of providing false information

to police.

Casey Anthony

could face the death penalty.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

[ Camera shutters clicking ]

This is no different

than any other murder trial,

except for having so many

of you fine people around.

[ Laughter ]

I know that Casey Anthony

is public-enemy number one,

but we have a court system

set up for this,

and we're going to

use the system

to search for the truth

and nothing but.

And when you finally hear

Casey's side of the events,

everyone...

and I mean everyone...

is gonna sit back and say,

"now I understand.

That explains it."

Thank you.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

[ Teakettle whistles ]

[ Jeff coughing ]

[ Sniffs ]

[ Telephone ringing ]

Hello?

Okay.

What we've been told, Barbara,

are a child's bones,

believed to be a little girl's,

were found scattered

around a swampy area

next to this street,

only 1/4 mile

from the Anthony house.

The remains were discovered

by a meter reader

who says he'd stepped outside

of the view of the street

to relieve himself.

Hey. We have a body.

I'm coming in.

And he spotted a little skull

next to a garbage bag.

Back to natisha at the location

where the remains

were discovered.

What's happening there now?

Are they still working?

Natisha:

They are still working, Nancy.

There is still some light

down at the location

where the remains were found.

They recently just put up

some cones on this street

so that nobody can get through.

Grace:
And mark Williams,

what about at the home?

Mark:
Well,

they've put some tape

going back to the backyard.

They've expanded

this crime scene.

They're waiting

for a search warrant.

Nobody has entered

the house yet.

There are seven deputies here.

The street is blocked off.

And it's been

an interesting night tonight.

[ Pen clicking ]

Linda:

They brought Casey here

to have the chaplain tell her

they found a body.

There just happened to be

a television

and a news report playing.

And a camera to record

her reaction.

Frank:
So much

for the chaplain.

Are you worried about her,

Frank?

No. Not at all.

Casey doesn't know yet.

Ah, tch this.

She hears the television.

[ Coughing ]

Please tell me

you got your flu shot.

Okay, look.

Watch her hyperventilate.

Yeah, sure.

She knows she's cooked.

Or she just lost her daughter.

So she's either a grieving

mother or a guilty murderer.

No way to tell the difference.

[ Sighs ]

Mario:
You want me

to keep it running?

No, Mario.

Anyway, I'm mean enough

not to mind

watching her suffer either way.

We can't use it.

You're making that call?

You just said, "either way."

Even you think

it's inconclusive.

It's too bad, though.

The body was just bagged

and tossed? Not even buried?

Well, there are snakes

in those woods.

Girls don't like snakes.

The theory's been floated
