It Is All But Certain: Caylee Anthony's Body Was In The Trunk Of Casey Anthony's Car
Stations and websites in the Orlando area are now reporting what many of us have suspected for a while now: There was a dead body in the trunk of Casey Anthony's car, and that body allegedly was that of her daughter, Caylee:
For the first time on the record on Sunday, Orange County investigators acknowledged that recent FBI lab tests indicated that Caylee Anthony's body was in her mother's trunk and that the child is dead.Evidence from a Central Florida body farm showed that an odor emitted from Casey Anthony's car's trunk was human decomposition.
A lead investigator in the case told WESH 2's Bob Kealing that lab results indicated Caylee's dead body was in the trunk of that car. Sources also confirmed that a stain in the trunk was not what clinched the decision that Caylee was in the trunk, but it was the strands of hair that investigators suspected all along were Caylee's.
If you remember, back when Cindy Anthony called 911 on her daughter, she said that it smelled like there had been a dead body in the car. She later recanted her story and said that the smell was a combination of rotting pizza and cleaning fluid.
For her part, Cindy is still upset that her daughter was taken back into custody on unrelated charges and the original bond rescinded, and she wants an apology from the sheriff:
"We need to start looking for a little girl that's walking and living and breathing and someone actually has her," Cindy Anthony said.
Cindy's behavior (including threatening media, not that they don't sometimes deserve it, constantly berating the police and how they are handling the situation, and furiously rowing down that river of denial) is being blamed for an exceptionally low turnout at searches organized this weekend by Equusearch:
"We usually have 1,000 to 2,000 a day (for a search)," Texas Equusearch official Mandy Albritton said. "Unfortunately, Saturday we only had 200."Even fewer volunteers showed up for a Sunday search.
Some blamed the low turnout — which was described as dismal — on Caylee's mother, Casey Anthony.
"Regardless of what your opinion is about the family, the focus is on this little girl who needs to be found," volunteer Magie Woodward said.
"I'd like to see a better turnout," volunteer Lee Mann said. "There is so many people around here. Anybody could help."
