First of all it wasn't "months and months" from the time Casey disposed of her baby and samples were taken from the trunk. Secondly, both prosecution scientist and defense scientist found chloroform in the trunk. Prosectors witness found it in quantities 10,000 times normal levels. Defense's witness says it was in smaller quantities but admits prosecutions witness methodology is better than what he used.
But what's the point you are arguing? The defense attorney stated in court that the body was disposed of by George who was helping 'somebody'. Somebody of course is Casey.
The body was undoubtedly in that trunk and the prosecutors scientist explained that the trash contained no organics. So where'd the chloroform come from and why did they put the baby in a garbage back and wrap duct tape somewhere on her head?
Is Baez lying?
If investigators and the prosecution would have done a better job we may all have known the answers to those questions. I’m amazed that after almost 3 years of investigation they bungled so much. Putting the trash from the trunk in a dryer before analyzing it, relying on science that had not even been peer reviewed allowing for doubts, claiming the wrong can contained samples etc. Even the “opinion” statements of homicide were uncalled for. Using “opinion” twice in the autopsy results doesn’t give much confidence to the jury to make a judgment concerning a life.
