FBI Destroyed Caylee Anthony Case Evidence
September 26. 2009

Why does the FBI keep destroying evidence in cases, which is in essence, the
property of the taxpayers of America. Earlier in the year, the public found out
the FBI destroyed evidence in their very shoddy anthrax case against scientist
Bruce Ivins.
A few days ago, the public also found out, once again, under Robert S. Mueller’s instructions, the FBI
destroyed the file of America’s most famous newsman,
Walter Cronkite.
Walter Cronkite
Now the public learns the FBI destroyed evidence in the case of murdered
2-year-old, Caylee Anthony. If a civilian did these things, they would be indicted for obstruction of
justice and face years behind bars, yet the FBI freely does such things on a regular basis.
It doesn’t look good. It reeks of cover-ups and is very undemocratic. One
expects such conduct in an autocracy, not a democracy.
Robert Mueller
Why is the U.S. Congress permitting such disgraceful conduct from Mueller. To
any observer in America and the world reading of these incidents, it looks
patently corrupt.

Heart-Wrenching Caylee Anthony Evidence
Destroyed, FBI Docs Show
September 25, 2009 1:16 PM - ORLANDO, Fla. (WKMG) It was one of the most
jaw-dropping, heart-rending disclosures in the case against accused child killer
Casey Anthony: that someone intentionally placed a heart-shaped sticker on the
duct tape that was wrapped around her daughter Caylee's skull.
The claim was based on a fingerprint examiner at the Federal Bureau of
Investigation laboratory reporting that she saw the shape or outline of a heart
on the duct tape.
But Local 6 has learned no one else will ever see what that examiner saw because
all traces of it were destroyed by testing at the FBI lab.
The Orange County Sheriff's Office cited that report in obtaining a search
warrant for arts and crafts materials in the Anthony family home, swearing the
FBI lab "noticed residue in the perfect shape of a heart. The heart was not hand
drawn and residue appeared to be consistent with the adhesive side of a heart
shaped sticker. It appears the sticker was put on the tape intentionally."
The search warrant was approved, and detectives recovered dozens of heart
stickers and the empty backings for heart stickers from the Anthony home during
the search on Dec. 20, 2008, nine days after Caylee's body was found dumped in
nearby woods.
But Local 6 has obtained a report from the FBI laboratory that reveals all
traces of such a shape on the duct tape were destroyed by the FBI lab during a
fingerprint-testing process and no photograph of the outline of a heart was
taken by the FBI before all traces of it were obliterated.
Some evidence photos have been withheld from public release, so it is not known
if any other agency took photos that show an outline of a heart on the tape. But
there has been no mention of other such photos in any of the discovery released
so far.
Without such an image, a jury will never get to see exactly what was on the duct
tape and the size of the outline of the heart cannot be exactly compared to the
stickers recovered...
Local 6 left a message with FBI fingerprint analyst Fontaine, asking why she did
not take a photo of the image before conducting the powder test that apparently
destroyed any trace of it. The phone call has not been returned.

Casey Anthony: WKMG says FBI destroyed crucial
evidence in case against Casey Anthony
Sep 25, 2009 9:29:50 AM - WKMG-Channel 6 teased its
big story by running a warning at the screen's top during last night's "CSI" and
"The Mentalist."
There was reason for the crowing: It was an explosive story -- and another
demonstration of Tony Pipitone's reporting skill.
The story led the 11 p.m. news: Pipitone reported that the FBI had destroyed an
important bit of evidence in the case against Casey Anthony. She is charged with
the first-degree murder of her daughter, Caylee.
"A blunder in the case against Casey Anthony," anchor Lauren Rowe said.
Pipitone called the evidence "one of those jaw-dropping disclosures" in the
case...
