Do you remember the “bag” that was reported to be in the trunk of Casey Anthony’s car that was removed by the tow truck company employee? According to Cindy Anthony, rotting pizza and maggots were inside the bag. Leonard Padilla on Nancy Grace last night stated the employee threw the bag over the fence into a dumpster. After thinking about it, and putting two and two together, the employee notified police of what he discarded. (Remember, the employee had lengthy conversation with George Anthony about the horrible stench in the car when he came to retrieve it and how upset he was at his daughter’s recent actions.) The employee was later informed by LE that they had recovered the bag.
According Leonard Padilla, there were body fluids and maggots on the outside of the retrieved bag.
Maggots don’t feed on pizza. ritanita’s investigation has uncovered this report that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence data can be obtained from the dissected gut of a maggot that had fed on human tissue. This type of testing is not new to the scientific community, unlike the “air sample” testing that was done by The Body Farm on the trunk of Casey’s car.
Leonard Padilla is entertaining, but virtually everything he has shared on Nancy Grace has been spot on. So is this THE SMOKING GUN that puts Caylee’s dead body in Casey’s car, or is it just one addition to the arsenal of evidence LE has that may be presented at trial?
Thank you ritanita for you excellent research! [from Sprocket]

The Orlando Sentinel covered the changing statement of Casey Anthony’s defense team, ending at 2:31 PM with Jose Baez saying his team is searching for a ‘live’ child, despite a comment made by a spokesman for his firm that stated the opposite.
In Jose Baez news conference this afternoon he said, “Todd Black is not a lawyer. He doesn’t sit in on our meetings. He doesn’t sit in on our client conversations. He doesn’t have any legal opinions whatsoever. He is simply a spokesman for our firm.”
Earlier today, Todd Black had said in an interview that the 3-year-old is dead. Mr. Black said, “It’s very difficult,” spokesman Todd Black was quoted as saying by the Sentinel. “This is a serious case involving not just the loss of the life of this little girl, but the loss of whatever is going to happen with Casey Anthony.”
By 12:35 p.m. Todd Black, spokesman for Casey Anthony’s defense attorney, had faxed out a press release about his recent Headline News interview in which he implied Caylee was dead.
“Unfortunately what they distributed was completely taken out of context. Todd Black never was stating that there is any belief whatsoever by Casey Anthony or The Baez Law Firm, that Ms. Anthony’s daughter, Caylee, might be deceased,” the statement said.
“The words used by Mr. Black were referencing the comments of another guest. It was that guest who made the remarks about death, and Mr. Black was merely pointing to that remark by the other guest.”
At 1:07 p.m. Orange Osceola State Attorney’s Office spokesman Randy Means said his office is not looking into the comments made by Casey Anthony defense attorney spokesman Todd Black regarding Caylee Marie’s death.
“Perhaps law enforcement may find his remarks intriguing,” Means said, according to Danielle Tavernier, another spokesperson for the state attorney’s office.
Do you think Caylee Anthony is dead? Will Caylee Anthony ever be found?

Case Anthony made her first court appearance today, arraigned on first degree murder charges. In the hearing Judge John Jordan informed Casey and her attorney, Jose Baez that there is no bond available. It was a short hearing. Casey Anthony appears on myfoxorlando.com about 45 seconds.
There was another individual standing up at the hearing with Casey, but I’ve not read any news reports that have identified him. In Florida, Jose Baez does not meet the qualifications to handle a potential death penalty case, so it remains to be seen who will step up as lead counsel for the eventual trial. I don’t predict this case will go to trial in 90 days. I think we will eventually see requests for more time to prepare for trial by the defense.

The Grand Jury has handed down an indictment against Casey Anthony just moments ago for a capital crime. Under capital law in Florida, there is no bail available. We will not know the exact charges until she is formally arrested and taken into custody.
Casey Anthony is not required to be back home until 5:00 pm EDT, however she was “dressed for arrest” in pinstripe pants and a button down top. She is currently in the family car with Cindy Anthony. We will update you as soon as we have news.
We all pray we will eventually learn what happened to little Caylee.

The state of Florida in Orange County has set a grand jury hearing to begin Monday, October 13 to determine if the state has enough evidence to charge Casey Anthony with the homicide of her daughter. Casey Anthony’s defense team are reported to be outraged that the grand jury will meet, and that information on the meeting was leaked to the media.
Information that the randomly chosen people, who will make up the grand jury, will decide by Tuesday whether Casey Anthony can be indicted on homicide charges was leaked earlier in the week. The secrecy, per the Florida Supreme Court, to all grand jury proceedings is of the utmost importance to protect grand jury members from outside pressure or intimidation. Florida is one of the few states that hold a grand jury hearing for capital cases, any crime for which the maximum punishment is death.
One of the witnesses that have been reported to testify on behalf of the state is Anthony’s father, George Anthony. Florida has a low grand jury standard to get an indictment, so I would expect by the end of the week, Casey Anthony will be charged with the death of her daughter.
CF News 13 reports that the Attorneys for Casey Anthony will have access to her car and forensic tests.
Ninth Judicial Circuit Court Judge Stan Strickland disagreed Friday, October 10, with an argument by Orange County prosecutors that the evidence did not pertain to the child neglect charges that Casey Anthony faces in the disappearance of her 3-year-old daughter, Caylee.
Strickland has approved the following motions presented in his court by lawyers for Anthony:
• A motion to compel results of forensic testing
• A motion to compel flight manifest
• A motion to demand inspection of polygraphs
• A motion for production of favorable evidence
• A motion to inspect and photograph evidence held by the state of Florida
Casey Anthony’s defense attorney Jose Baez had sought these forensic reports so he can conduct his own tests.
In other news, Tim Miller with Texas EquuSearch said he is back in Orlando. The group hopes to start searching by late Sunday or Monday.
In an interview with CF News 13, Miller said the ground is too saturated this weekend from rain in the area.
Miller believes Caylee is dead, but said the 3-year-old deserves a proper burial.
“My heart goes out to the Anthony family,” said Miller. “’It’s a position they’ve never wanted to be put in and I can empathize with them.”

It looks like it’s finally going to happen folks. I know y’all have been waiting for this for quite some time. The State’s Attorney’s office is working towards a murder or manslaughter charge against Casey Anthony.
Local 6 reports:
The State Attorney’s Office is planning on presenting its case to a grand jury on Tuesday, according to Local 6 News. The grand jury will then decide if prosecutors have enough evidence to charge Anthony, the report said.
It is not known if it will be a murder or manslaughter charge, Local 6 reported.
Deputy’s have stated they think 2-year-old Caylee Anthony is dead. Prosecutors will have an uphill battle since little Caylee’s body has not been found.

WESH News is reporting that today, Orange County Sheriff’s for the first time they have labeled Casey Anthony a suspect in the disappearance of her daughter, Caylee. OCSO stated there were two reasons why Casey’s status changed from a “person of interest” to suspect today. First, the evidence they’ve received from the FBI indicating there was a “high probability” that little Caylee’s body was in the trunk of her mother’s car, and second, the many lies she has repeatedly told investigators.
It’s about time that OCSO changed her status to suspect. Virtually every thing that has come out of her mouth about her daughter’s disappearance has been proven to be a lie. Let’s hope that this latest statement by OCSO means that murder charges are not far behind.
Anthony’s attorney, Jose Biaz, would not comment beyond saying it didn’t matter what the OCSO called her.
