FBI: Child Outline Seen In Casey Trunk
Mom Charged With Murder In Death Of Caylee Anthony

ORLANDO, Fla. -- An FBI intelligence analyst says a stain on Casey Anthony's trunk liner appears to show a silhouette of a child in the fetal position, according to documents released on Tuesday.

An FBI laboratory supervisor, responding to the agent’s observation, wrote an e-mail saying the lab does not "report conclusions about what may or may not have left any marks or impressions in cases like this – it is too speculative."

FBI Intelligence Analyst Karen B. Cowan wrote in an e-mail dated Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2008, that "a very interesting photo exists of the trunk liner, which you have, which highlights the very large stain. If you look closely at this photo, there appears to be the outline or silhouette of a child in the fetal position. You can make out what may be the back, bottom, and legs most clearly. The image is best viewed on a computer screen, rather than a printout, but several of us can see this image and agree there is good chance we are seeing something significant."

The e-mail was addressed to Erin P. Martin of the FBI, and can be found on page 34 of this document.

But two days later, on Oct. 2, FBI supervisory photographic technologist Richard W. Vorder Bruegge told Cowan the lab would not speculate about what left the image: "Others can draw their own conclusions about that."

The stain Cowan observed was found not to be caused by any biological liquid, such as blood or fluids from decomposition. No DNA was found in the stain.

Thousands of pages of information in the Anthony murder case were released Tuesday morning by the state attorney's office. Local 6 News reporters continue to go through the documents and will have a new report on The 6 O'Clock News.

Local 6 News recently uncovered an FBI report showing that fingerprint testing destroyed the reported image of heart-sticker residue on the duct tape found around the mouth of Anthony's daughter, Caylee, whose remains were discovered in December.

The FBI said it did not take a photograph of the image before it was destroyed.

Anthony, 23, remains jailed on first-degree murder charges in the death of Caylee, who was 2 years old when she was reported missing in July 2008.

Anthony has pleaded not guilty.

Here is a breakdown of the FBI documents in separate parts. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to read them all yet, so I am not able to give you a summary, but you may find these easier to read rather than the WFTV link.

How are the Anthonys going to explain the stain that appears to be the silhouette of a child? They can't blame that on a squirrel. I think this information will be another nail in Casey's coffin.
