Panicked Grandmother of Toddler Claims 'Dead Body' Smell in Car
Child's Mother Claimed She Knew 'Who Has Her'
Casey's parents both corroborated the story until the hearing today, when Cindy Anthony said that the last time she saw the child was not on June 9, but on June 15, and that she had just been confused.
When police questioned Casey Anthony about her daughter prior to her arrest, they say Anthony misled them multiple times.
When she took police to the apartment where she said the babysitter, Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez, lived, they found that no one had lived in the apartment for five months. Though police have been working to track Fernandez-Gonzalez down, efforts have proved fruitless so far.
"I am not disregarding that this person may or may not exist," Mellich said during his testimony. "But Casey Anthony's friends and family have never met this person."
Casey also claimed to have worked for Universal Studios, but admitted later that that was not true.
But what unsettles Orange County Deputy Sheriff Carlos Padilla more than Anthony's imprecise information is her overall attitude.
"She has shown no emotion," Padilla told ABCNews. "That's unusual. At the time of the interviews ... she didn't seem concerned and that made this case much stranger."
"She spoke to deputies like she was talking about baseball. How do you get through to someone like that?" he added.
But with a homicide trial possibly brewing on the horizon, and the results of DNA tests on the newfound hairs pending, the Anthony family has not given up hope.
"I don't sleep, so I don't know what day it is. It's all one day," Cindy Anthony said in court today. "I am prepared to do anything I can to find Caylee."
