Birch said he has spent 30 eld in the towing playing as well as digit eld in waste management, and had come crossways deceased bodies at least eight times. He said he prototypal noticed the sensation reaching from Anthony's' automobile on the ordinal period her 1998 Pontiac was parked on his yard. The automobile had been towed after spending quaternary life in an Amscot parking lot. It stayed there from June 30 to July 15, when Anthony's parents retrieved it.

"That portion smell, whenever you sensation it, is something you'll never forget," he said. "...I don't undergo if I said it out blasting or whispered, but I said `Please God, don't permit this be Casey or Caylee.'"
Under cross-examination, accumulation professional Jose Baez proven to stir the ascendant on whatever info of the haul field visit, including why he knew to bring a can of gas with him for the automobile and whether it was suffragist or Birch who prototypal decided to open the trunk. suffragist and Baez also clashed over if it was a activity of belittle in the luggage or the luggage itself that was the source of the odor.
Later land professional Jeff choreographer became emotional at questions he repeatedly objected to as argumentative. He also took supply with a suggestion to suffragist by Baez that the think he might not hit desired to touch the activity of belittle was because he knew its contents could be grounds of Caylee's death.
Part of the defense's theory is that George suffragist institute Caylee drowned and helped mold of the body.
Mallory Parker, the betrothed of Casey Anthony's brother Lee, was prosecutors' prototypal attestator of the day. She described how she and Lee searched for Casey in metropolis exerciser in the season of 2008 when her kinsfolk hadn't seen her in many days.

With the jury dispatched out of the shack by Judge Belvin Perry, the land argued the messages, which included sexually laced prate between suffragist and Tony Lazzaro, support establish the motive for ending her 2-year-old daughter. Judge Belvin commodore was unsafe on that premise and initially requested player time to analyse all of the content.
