ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- More than 20 new documents were released Thursday in the case against Casey Anthony, including disturbing pictures showing skulls on Casey's Photobucket site (see images).

Eyewitness News has learned that there are photos of skeletons kissing and numerous photos of skulls. Those are the photos that the defense tried to keep out of the public record, even though they were accessible online during the hearing.

VIDEO REPORT: Disturbing Photos Released

There is also a photo of Caylee with a heart, similar to the heart sticker that was found over Caylee's mouth stuck to the duct tape that was stuck to her hair.

According to transcripts released, private investigator Jim Hoover told detectives that the day Caylee's remains were found, when investigators were on their hands and knees in mud searching the scene, the Anthonys were dining at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel having crab puffs (read Hoover transcript). Hoover also told detectives that George and Cindy said they didn't know whether they'd be together when all of this is over, because each felt the other had thrown Casey "under the bus."

Hoover told investigators more about the mysterious video that he took of the Anthonys' private investigator Dominic Casey at the scene a month before Caylee's remains were found. Hoover said Dominic Casey was somber and knew where Caylee was. Hoover also said Dominic Casey told him to bring his cameras to the scene and asked him to videotape their so-called search, even though Dominic Casey told investigators under oath he did not know he was being videotaped.

When they saw three pavers at the scene, Hoover told detectives that Mr. Casey told him, "Oh, this looks like a gravesite. Get a shot of this!" and poked into the ground with a gardening tool. He said Dominic Casey made at least four phone calls while he was there the first time.

Jim Hoover told investigators Dominic Casey later asked him for the videotape and Hoover told him it was recorded over. Hoover also said Dominic was not happy with that answer and called him a nasty name.

Hoover told investigators that Cindy and George seemed to accept, just a few days after the remains were found on December 11, that they were Caylee's, before the DNA test results confirmed it.

Casey's defense team wants to see evidence taken from a computer belonging to her ex-boyfriend, Ricardo Morales. A hearing, which is scheduled on March 12, will also involve a request to keep George Anthony's suicide note from being released.
