Excerpt:
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- A researcher at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory was the first witness called on day 22 of Casey Anthony's murder trial on Monday.
Dr. Arpad Vass testified that he can detect human decomposition in the air from Casey's trunk. It's the first time a jury has heard testimony about controversial air tests. The evidence has never been used in a criminal case before.
Prosecutors say Casey drove for days with Caylee's body in the trunk, before discarding it in a swamp near the Anthonys' house on Suburban Drive. Prosecutors also say that she Googled how to make chloroform three months before the murder.
Prosecutors say the tests prove Caylee's body was in the trunk of Casey's car.
"I can find no other plausible explanation other than that to explain all the results we found," said Vass.
Vass testified that a machine called a "gas chromatograph" can identify chemicals that are unique to human decomposition.
"Those are the chemicals that a cadaver-locating dog could smell," Vass said.
Then, for the first time ever, Vass testified the air sample pointed to a dead body.
