Casey Anthony Update 28 May

Casey Anthony's defense team filed a request late today asking the judge to order the video of her reaction the day her daughter’s remains were found sealed.

Attorney Jose Baez wrote in the motion that the video must not be released to the public for medical privacy and other reasons that have been developed.

Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Marie. The toddler's remains were found Dec. 11 less than a mile from her family home.

Baez questioned two Orange County corrections officers who escorted Anthony to the medical facility on Dec. 11. After interviewing them, he learned several other people he needs to question and documents he must request to prepare for a later motion to suppress. Baez wrote that the scene was set up by investigators to capture her reaction on tape.

The video lacks any evidential value, Baez wrote, and could cause problems getting a fair and unbiased jury pool. (The Caylee Anthony case ceased to be about evidence a long time ago. It's all about us being nosy. And Casey and Jose Baez contributed to the media circus.)
