ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - The Casey Anthony trial is now in day 14 of testimony with a computer forensic expert remaining on the witness stand.

Prosecutors are drawing connections between chloroform present in Casey Anthony's trunk and Internet searches about the chemical performed three months before her toddler disappeared.

Casey Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee. Prosecutors say she used duct tape to suffocate her daughter in the summer of 2008. The child's remains were found about six months later.

John Dennis Bradley, a former Canadian law enforcement officer who now develops software for computer investigations, analyzed a data file from a desktop seized from the home of George and Cindy Anthony, where Casey lived sometimes.

Bradley said he was able to use a program to recover deleted searches from March 17 and March 21, 2008. On March 21, someone searched the website Sci-spot.com for "chloroform" 84 times, he said.
