Excerpt:

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Prosecutors filed a document (read it) Thursday afternoon telling the defense which legal reasons they're using to justify the death penalty in the murder case against Casey Anthony.

DOCUMENT: Notice Of Aggravating Circumstances

If Casey is convicted of murdering her daughter Caylee, prosecutors will argue five of the 15 possible aggravators to the jury.

The aggravators they are using are:

• The murder was committed during aggravated child abuse, for which Casey is also charged
  
• The murder was especially atrocious
  
• The murder was committed in a cold, calculated and premeditated manner
  
• The victim was younger than 12 years old
  
• The victim was particularly vulnerable because her killer was her mother
