While DNA had been used to link the hair to Casey’s daughter Caylee, a technique known as hair banding was used to show that the hair came from a body which had started to decompose. This fact would indicate that 2 year old Caylee was in fact dead in the trunk of Casey’s car.

While hair banding is not a new science, its use in a court proceeding as evidence is. The defense argued that the technique is not reliable. On cross examination the experts agreed that it may be possible for the hair banding to occur from some mechanism other than decomposition. I was noted however that there has never been such an instance recorded, but it has never been proven impossible.

Today, the trial continues with the hot topic surrounding the air samples gathered from the car. When Casey’s mother Cindy Anthony made the 911 call to the police, she said that the car smelled like there had been a dead body in it. Investigators, with years of experience around decomposing bodies, have testified to the smell which still lingers in the car years later.

A air sample was collected as evidence and examined. The sample was found to also contain chloroform which is believed to have been used to subdue Caylee. During the trial currently underway, the air sample will be entered into evidence, while the defense tries to discredit it.
