Judge Perry is Not Pleased: The Casey Anthony Trial

Excerpt:

"When you woke up this morning everything was gone.

By half past ten your head was going ding-dong."
--Woke up This Morning, A3

Sounds like Judge Belvin Perry's day, doesn't it?

Court started at 9 am with Ashton requesting more prep time after the court-ordered deposition of defense witness Dr. Bill Rodriguez. He also said he wanted a hearing about one of the forensic anthropologist's opinions. Apparently, he is planning to tell the jury that people cannot recognize the smell of decomposition. When pressed, he admitted that this opinion was not based on any study, it was simply his experience. Sounds like the good doctor might have an under-developed sense of smell.

Ashton also complained of another violation of the court's December 10, 2010 ruling, connected to the second slated defense witness, Dr. Eichenbloom. His first report was half of a page long and contained no opinions. Over the weekend, Baez provided the state with a two-page report and a 45-slide PowerPoint presentation. Ashton called it "another intentional violation of the court order." Ashton said that he could depose this witness on Tuesday evening.
