Casey Anthony Cops Botched Search Of Computer, Missed Crucial Evidence, TV Report Claims

The expose brought to light even more revelations about what allegedly happened on Monday, June 16, 2008, the day that Caylee died, such as after George said he had left for work, the Anthony family's desktop computer was allegedly activated by someone using a password-protected account Casey Anthony was the main user of.

At 2:51 p.m. a Google search for the term "fool-proof suffocation," misspelling the last word as "suffication" was typed in to the computer according to the report.

"I don't think it's appropriate for me to say this person messed up, that person messed up or we messed up," said Ashton.

According to the report, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office allegedly possessed the evidence but failed to extract it and hand it over to prosecutors, which sheriff Captain Angelo Nieves now calls "an oversight." Going on to tell WKMG: "This has been a learning experience for investigators as well."

WKMG reports that prosecutors did ask for the Internet history from that fateful day, but the request came too late - approximately two months before the trial started - and after they had learned that Anthony was going to claim she was awakened that morning by her frantic father looking for a missing Caylee.

Lead prosecutor Linda Drane Burdick told the reporter that she had initially hoped to disprove Casey's statement by finding out, and subsequently presenting to the jury, exactly what Anthony had been looking at on her computer at the time of Caylee's death.

However, lead sheriff's Investigator Yuri Melich allegedly sent Burdick a spreadsheet that contained less than two percent of the computer’s Internet activity that day.

The alleged fatal flaw came about because Melich allegedly only presented data from the computer’s Internet Explorer browser – one Casey Anthony had apparently stopped using months earlier. Since March, she preferred to use the computer’s Mozilla Firefox browser, as investigators already knew.

Humphrey reportedly obtained the computer's full browser histories in August through a public records request, and when she later asked Osbourne in an e-mail about the alleged oversight, she reportedly claimed she was never asked to conduct a search for "suffocation."

"It really doesn't take more than 15 or 20 minutes to look through the entire Internet history for June 16 and I would have thought if there was one day you were going to pick, that would be the day," Humphrey told reporters.

Humphrey then recruited John Goetz, a retired engineer and computer expert in Connecticut, to extract the alleged records, which took only two hours, and he sent them to Local 6 in August.

Among the evidence that he reportedly discovered was that it was allegedly Casey Anthony’s AIM account screen name – casey o marie – and not George Anthony’s that logged in just before the fool proof suffocation search.

The same AIM account was allegedly used to chat on the computer at 7:56 a.m., and was logged in at the same time of other Casey-related Mozilla Firefox browsing session on that day.

The AIM account evidence was allegedly yet another detail that Baez reportedly planned to pin on George Anthony, citing it as "concrete proof" it was him and not Casey Anthony doing the foolproof suffocation search that afternoon.

"We were keeping it close to the vest and ready to counter punch in the trial and it never came up."

In his book, Presumed Guilty, Casey Anthony: The Inside Story, Baez "claimed he had concrete proof it was George and not Casey on the computer doing that search, and that it actually occurred an hour earlier," reported Tony Pipitone, who promised more details in a report on Wednesday on "how the evidence points to it being Casey."
