Casey Anthony: Day 13 = Chloroform + Computer searches
http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/06/08/florida.casey.anthony.trial/
Three expert witnesses testified today on the computer searches found on the Anthony home computer. Kevin Stenger is the one I first watched. He was a forensic computer expert who used the encase software to detail what happened and what was queried on the Anthony computer.
I don’t know about you but I’ve never queried “chloroform” or how to make chloroform on my computer. But that and more was found on the computer. Interesting how the police and the actual software designer spoke about what COULD have happened and what DID happen on that computer using the terms “cache” and “internet history” and of course most of the searches were done on Google, using Mozilla firefox 2.0 and many wikipedia URLs were retrieved by the finders. Bradley who designed encase was on the stand talking about his product but also what he knew or did not know. Such as when a history is deleted. Only that it was deleted manually. Also, the actual page as seen on that day in March 2008 actually looked. They are stored in two different areas.
I recorded four hours of News Now on HLN which must be owned by CNN to watch the trial. John Bradley said his role was to decode the history of the searches done most likely by Casey Anthony.
(CNN) — Someone conducted keyword searches on “chloroform” using a desktop computer located in the home Casey Anthony shared with her parents, a computer examiner testified Wednesday in Anthony’s capital murder trial.
The searches were found in the “deleted” or “unallocated space” portion of the computer’s hard drive, Detective Sandra Osborne of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office testified, meaning they had been deleted.
However, she told jurors, deleted material remains on a computer’s hard drive and can be retrieved until it is overwritten by new data. It had not been overwritten on the Anthonys’ computer, she said, and “a complete Internet history” was obtained. Osborne said she turned the data over to her sergeant, who is an expert at analyzing such material.
Anthony, 25, faces seven counts in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, including first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse and misleading investigators. If convicted, she could face the death penalty.

i think all of the people saying they smelled a dead body does not look good for george anthony when he goes to pick up casey’s car and says he smells a dead boady and tells the tow company employee hia dauther and granddauther are missing for 31 days and he does not call the police.
I agree
Why the prosecution continues to put on such a pitiful showing is beyond all common sense, they should change their tactics and start seeking Justice for Caylee, the defense is kicking their butts on every issue.
I do not agree with your assessment.
Facts of this case do scare some people, but thanks for proving that point.
Did you notice where the whole chloroform started? Casey’s friend on myspace made a comment he posted saying something about what does a guy have to do to get a girl these day, chloroform her? Then, as the computer tech testified, Casey’s computer then had searches for chloroform after that and only after that. Well, that clears that whole thing about chloroform and the cause of death and the smell in her car. Defense wins again. But, why are they being allowed to win every issue? Where is the justice for Caylee?
Good point I missed that testimony. The search was done in a short window. And chloroform is an off gas of a dead body so that would explain it in trunk but they are chasing the online one instead. One for you.
After the alleged drowning, George handled the disposal, not Casey, she’s mot technically even a part of that; George and Kronk are.
This case for the prosecution is falling apart so fast, it is almost laughable.
