And more recently you said that you believe that it was maybe old pizza. And I was just calling wondering why you changed your mind on that. CINDY ANTHONY: "I changed my mind on that -- I never changed my mind on that. What I stated was the car smelled, OK. I was told by my husband and also by the gentleman at the tow yard that there was a bag of food that contained pizza and maggots in the car. I went down and I spoke myself with the manager of the tow company, and he told us that that was the cause of the smell in the car. I don't know if anybody that has ever smelled decay of food that's been in a car trunk for 19 days in Florida heat. I have opened my refrigerator and made the comment, something died in here."

CINDY ANTHONY: "There was one photo out of all of the photos that has been shown of her partying that was after June 16th, one. And what we have learned that that is a staged photo.

(Greta "On The Record" EquuSearch Investigator: 'I Feel It's Caylee'
12/11/2008): GRETA VAN SUSTEREN: Tim, did you actually search that particular area? TIM MILLER, TEXAS EQUUSEARCH: You know, Nancy (SIC), we actually lost one of our four-wheelers in that area. It got underneath the water. We got to remember, when Caylee disappeared, Florida was going through a drought. And after her disappearance, Tropical Storm Faye came through and dumped just tons of water. And it was the hardest decision I ever made when I had called that search off. And my biggest fear was that Caylee was going to be under the water and either a four-wheeler or a person or a horse or something would step on the remains, push it down farther in the mud or destroy the remains and jeopardize any future searches. And so we postponed that search for two more months. And then we came back in November. We did another search of that area we went to again. The area was still under water. It wasn't feasible to search it. GRETA VAN SUSTEREN: Tim, when you say that it was under water, how deep was the water? Because I don't have any sort of concept of this. TIM MILLER: Well, the water right there was probably about three feet deep. I mean, there was just a tremendous amount of water. And then when I flew back to Florida and I actually rented a small airplane and we flew the area I November, and there was still more water than we wanted to be here. |

("Lawyers for Caylee's Mother Stand by Her Story in Planning Defense Strategy" 12/13/2008): "If this is Caylee Anthony, that doesn't mean Casey Anthony did anything to that child," Todd Black, a spokesman for Anthony's lead attorney, told FOXNews.com on Saturday. "That doesn't determine who or what caused the child's death." Anthony is in jail accused of murdering Caylee, but Black said Anthony stands by her claim that she dropped off her 2-year-old daughter with a sitter in June and never saw her again. That won't change if it turns out the skull and bones belong to Caylee. "Casey Anthony handed her daughter off to a woman in a park who was with another woman in a car," Black told FOXNews.com. "Her position and the position of the law firm has been that she handed her child off. ... It would be difficult for a prosecution to absolutely tell a jury that Ms. Anthony is the one who injured the child." |

Investigators said they believe Caylee's body was dumped at the location in the woods shortly after she was killed. The bag full of human child remains was discovered by a meter reader, who went into the woods to relieve himself. Sources have described a small "bone trail" found outside the garbage bag, leading them to suspect that it was likely submerged for an unknown period of time and some of the remains floated out of the bag or were scattered by animals. For the first time, WESH 2 News has also confirmed that the child's body was wrapped in some sort of "covering" inside the bag. According to sources, it was the covering -- along with the trash bag and duct tape -- that investigators said they believe are tied to the Anthony house nearby on Hopespring Drive." |
