In Monday’s hearing there was a dialogue between Baez and Ashton about discovery the defense has not yet received. During that exchange Ashton mentioned some latent evidence that needs to be turned over to the defense. While this does not prove there exists latents, it is an interesting statement. To date we have not seen discovery that shows latents found on any important evidence (i.e. at the scene where Caylee’s remains were discovered). So I thought I’d review the forensic evidence notes I have taken from discovery to date to see what items could potentially have had latents but of which we currently are unaware. In other words, these are the pieces of evidence for which “no latents” has not been stated. The list below includes many items at the crime scene that may not be associated with Caylee at all.
* Q66 – tape on gas can (this should not be minimized – if this has any of the Anthonys’ prints on it, then it will be hard to argue against the connection between this piece and those on Caylee’s remains. If it has Casey’s, well, some one please holler BINGO!)
* Q84 – Whitney laundry bag crime scene
* Q85 – plastic bag crime scene
* Q86 – plastic bag crime scene
* Q98 – hair clip crime scene
* Q100.1 – heart sticker (on cardboard) crime scene
* Q104 – Henkel duct tape crime scene
* Q105 – bag crime scene
* Q186 – plastic bag crime scene
* Q236 – plastic bag crime scene
* Q238 – Gatorade bottle (along with syringe and syringe packaging) crime scene
* Q316, Q317, Q318 – non-Henkel duct tape pieces crime scene
* various pieces of plastic, plastic bags, bottles, cans, wrappers, balloon, Disney bag, vinyl-coated lettering from Caylee’s shirt, etc. from crime scene
These are things I have located that could catch a latent but have not been denoted to contain “no latents” in the discovery released to date.
Valhall.
