1 Year Ago Today: Casey Anthony Charged With Murder

Reported by Kelli Cook

ORLANDO -- Wednesday marks one year since a grand jury indicted Casey Anthony on a first degree-murder charge in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

On the anniversary of her indictment, the judge in the case has another slew of motions to consider Friday regarding both the murder case and unrelated check fraud charges.

Not only does attorney Jose Baez want his client’s murder trial moved out of Orange County, but he also wants Casey’s check fraud case moved to either Miami-Dade County, Palm Beach County or Broward County.

New Documents Released Oct. 14

* Deft’s Reply to State’s Response to Motion to Dismiss Due to Spoliation of Evidence

* Defendant’s Motion to Limine to Preclude the Introduction of Any Evidence Relating to Murder Case
* Motion in Limine to Exclude Evidence of Alleged Prior Bad Acts

“Miss Anthony cannot get a fair trial by an impartial jury in Orlando because of extensive, inflammatory ad prejudicial pretrial publicity in this case,” Baez said in his motion.

The defense also replied to the state’s response for a motion to dismiss Casey’s murder case.

The defense argued the case should be dismissed, because the state ruined important evidence in the case, namely excavating the crime scene where Caylee Anthony’s remains were found in December.

The defense also filed a separate motion to reproduce hard or digital copies of crime scene photographs, and a motion to require potential jurors in Casey’s check fraud case to fill out a questionare.

All of the motions should be hammered out in court Friday.

wow.. 1 year already..

dont get me wrong, i am glad she is behind bars, BUT i think it is a little rediculous that our "system" could take a year to try someone...

maybe i am just too much of a fan of the "olden days" round em up'.. hang em in the streets.. takes care of all this $$ that WE are all paying to keep these social degenerates FAT!!!!!!!!!

If Casey was innocent, I think Jose Baez and the Anthonys would be screaming about the fact that she's had to sit in jail for more than a year awaiting her trial. Instead, it is the defense that is responsible for continually getting the trial date pushed back.
