to a screeching halt according to jeff ashton, that s when casey anthony decided to use the chloroform and the duct tape. you see the video of casey anthony earlier, she was weeping. she was sobbing. for the first 45 minutes, she was pretty stoic in there and unemotional visibly but once they got into showing some of the crime scene evidence, they showed the skull of her daughter. caylee anthony found in the woods. they also showed the shirt she was wearing that was found out in those woods. big trouble comes in small packages. her pair of shorts and what jeff ashton referred to as her coffin, a laundry bag which happened to match its partner, laundry bag, inside the casey anthony home. jeff ashton was succinct and here s, basically, one of his stronger points of the morning. so on that morning, casey knew she would not be staying at
not just taken down a notch but, excuse me, completely gutted. i mean, he promised things to this jury that went completely unfulfilled. when you too that like mark geragos did in the peterson case, the jury is left with a gaping hole. to create reasonable doubt, he ll have to pull a rabbit out of a hat. i don t know what he s going to do. this prosecution s closing argument was very strong, very compelling and some of the words that he used. that casey could put caylee out of the mind the way he could put the truth out of her mind and the desire from freedom and freedom from the burden of motherhood was really compelling because i think any parent can put themselves in the position of having to deal with children, how difficult parenthood is. how much you give up when you re a parent to your child. and when you decide to become a parent, you give that up with joy. casey anthony did not do that. she was going to get rid of her child. we ll take a quick break. the prosecution did
you can read it as many times as you want, there s absolutely no way the man that wrote that note knew anything about what really happened to his granddaughter and that s what was killing him. he didn t know. he had nothing. to do with this crime. but the evidence that casey did is overwhelming. casey s car when it was retrieved from the tow yard on july 15th of 2008 wreaked of death. the first witness you heard talk about it. simon burke, gentleman with the english accent, manager of a tow yard. not a police officer. but a guy who for 30 years has been involved in towing cars.
was in the back of the car. the point is that that hair was from a dead body. now, how do we know that that was caylee s body? two ways. first is by mitocondrial d.n.a. it s done on the hair and also on casey anthony. that comparison proves that that hair came either from occasi from some maternal relative of caylee anthony. caylee, casey, cindy, lee, or cindy s mother. ok? well, we know it s not casey s because it s too long and casey s hair is treated. so we know it s not casey s. we know it s not cindy s because it s the wrong color, it s not
the prosecution when it was learned late in this case, day 32, 33, near the end that cindy anthony had made searches on her computer at work and at home, rather, and not at work as she previously had stated, it was believed she was trying to potentially cover up for casey by process of elimination, casey had to have done those searches according to the prosecution. that s right, jamie. that was the issue, the one essential elements to the premeditation and now we learn that cindy could not have possibly done this. it was casey or somebody else but you know it was casey at this point. so that did serious, serious damage. i think the jury knows that cindy was covering, knows she was lying. and what that does is that puts now casey in a position where she wasn t before. far more damage has been done and now she seriously is looking at a first degree murder conviction because of that premeditation three months in advantage and that shows sort of
