Breaking News: New Duct Tape Link Discovered in Caylee Anthony Murder Case
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — It’s the duct tape that could strengthen the link between Casey Anthony and her daughter’s body and it was discovered only by Eyewitness News.
Eyewitness News found the same rare type of tape that was found on Caylee’s skull being used by the Anthony family on a Caylee Anthony poster.
You can’t buy the tape from Home Depot. It is industrial-grade duct tape that hasn’t been sold in years.
DOCUMENT: State’s Case File
With the debate over the duct tape evidence intensifying this week, Eyewitness News re-analyzed video that was taken in the months before Caylee’s body was found.
The discovery could make it even more difficult for the defense to argue that Casey didn’t put the tape over Caylee’s mouth. The defense has really been trying to shoot down the duct tape evidence recently.
However, the video taken by Eyewitness News on July 20, 2008 just days after Casey’s arrest and one month after Caylee Anthony disappeared, shows that the duct tape on the Anthonys’ Caylee posters has the same unique markings as the duct tape on the Anthonys’ gas can and the tape found over Caylee’s mouth.
A photo of the duct tape on the Anthonys’ gas can, which is the one Casey is accused of stealing from her parents in June of 2008, shows distinct markings that it’s made by the Henkel Company and shows some of the specifications.
In July of 2008, the Anthonys had set up a command post and put up posters with Caylee’s photo on them. They used what appeared to be the same duct tape with Henkel logo.
Both pieces, which apparently came from the Anthonys’ home, appear to be the same kind of rare duct tape according to page number 3378 in the state’s case file, (read document) that investigators found over Caylee’s mouth when her remains were found in the woods near the Anthonys’ home.
Page number 3378, shows that the FBI says the duct tape found over Caylee’s skull showed the same black oval Henkel logo and the “spec max temp 200 degrees Fahrenheit”
The FBI says it’s an industrial tape that hasn’t been made for YEARS.
Court documents show the defense has had the FBI photos of the duct tape that was over Caylee’s mouth, showing the Henkel logo which matches the Anthonys’ duct tape, since March. SOURCE: WFTV.COM NEWS ORLANDO FLORIDA OCTOBER 2, 2009
Way to go WFTV News!


there is an article on http://www.blinkoncrime.com that is of great reading value!!
Caseydidit, it was very creepy…he reminded me of Hannabal…I never went again with my partner…once was enough.
Oh Bryan, this is GREATTTTTT..reporting…everyone needs to read this…wow…and the plastic bags will show prints…I just know it..it not that they will be traced back…I watched a show not to long ago on how plastic bags are made…there are only 17 identical boxes ever made…not that is a real hard one..the odds must be in the trillions to 1…
Hi to all my TCD friends,
Finally, something to cheer about. I was so fed up with all the sleazey Baezy garbarge they were tossing out, didn’t want to think or read any more about this case in the past week. I’ve been too consumed by this case, and letting it drag me down. Poor little Caylee. We will hang in there, till the last bit of evidence is presented, and this evil CMA will finally get what she deserves.
Angels on your pillows y’all.
The value of wftv finding that footage with a shot of the duct tape is HUGE!!! A picture is in fact worth a 1,000 words. There was a guy who murdered his wife and a cab driver and then called 911 to say he walked in on the guy killing his wife and had to shoot him. Cops called him a hero. For 6 years he went on with life, got married, had kids,, etc… But one cop just had an itch about the case. He found a photo taken of the bodies before they were removed that had been overlooked. Sure enough the photo contradicted his story. Long story short he was tried and convicted on 2 counts of murder. Way to go wftv!! Kudos to these people.
Also it was stated on ng last nite that the documents referred to by brad conway and the rest of these clowns were released out of order and that documents dated after these confirm results of duct tape. These idiots did it again - they see something that looks to be in their favor and run with it instead of looking at the case chronologically. Their inexperience alone is enough to get a conviction. Also, since when has brad conway come out in support of casey? I recall him and other lawyers they have had saying they are just there for G & C and have nothing to do with casey. Personally, some of the comments brad conway has made sound as if he made a slip and he points the finger at casey. We will see a conviction - maybe LWOP rather than the DP, but there will be a conviction. And I also believe casey is foolish enough to want to take the stand. Think about how she bulldozed cops with her lies those first few days and her saying no one will trick her into a confession. She is just stupid enough to think she can handle the prosecutors the same way…..
FINALLY!!!
The duct tape IS a link that points directly to KC in the murder of precious Caylee.
Looks like her “beautiful life” will be spent in prison for the rest of her pathetic life!!
I knew all along that POS killed her beautiful baby.
LWOP for KC and JUSTICE FOR CAYLEE!!!!!!!!!!!
Good morning…couldn’t wait to turn n my PC to read TCD…and have a cup o’ joe…beautiful day…what an interesting article…Thanks Bryan for your link referenced above 10/3 @ 1:31AM…It definitely is a must read for all our TCD friends…Nothing like putting the cart before the horse…Mr. Conman was spurred on by Bozo, I’m sure…we know he likes to stir S***…
Hi, Estee!
I saw your comment yesterday on the Emma thread. Just want to advise that I posted an update regarding Coe’s bond hearing yesterday on the Emma Thompson’s thread.

My comment: In the Comments below this article, there is a comment from PA Grandma (6:34 p.m. - 10-2-09). She references an Oct. 12 hearing. Does anyone know if there is a hearing on 10-12-09 or is this incorrect info?
When I was reading about the duct tape, I noticed it stated Avon Ohio 44011. The family lived in Ohio. Maybe that’s where the tape was purchased; tho I think they moved from there many years ago. ??
From reading the Blink on Crime info, tho it’s a bit difficult to comprehend, I THINK it implied that there must be a FINGERPRINT there, somewhere, for the FBI to state there was no print from George, Cindy or Lee. ??
Morning Everyone,
Ann Tx, I haven’t heard anything about when the next hearing is. I wonder if the court website has it’s schedule posted?
Good morning Colleen IL ……..9am hearing set for 10/12 according to clerk of circuit court site.:)…sorry didn’t mean too butt in.
Bozo states the truth will come out at trial, but it wont. Also feel that theres no way he’d let her testify. His job is to create reasonable doubt. Thats all he has to do. No one else might ever know how Caylee died, except Casey.
sorry Connie ….don’t were colleen came from …was up late last nite
yeah way to go WFTV News, but does the prosecution have this?
morning, Im wondering why George went on national tv and said he knew who the kidnappers were and how they are watching them. When he is on the stand , I hope the attorneys ask about this.It makes no sense that he would say this and not go to LE and have them go in with guns ablazing.,to rescue his granddaughter.Once he is on the stand it will not take the attorneys long to destroy all credibility from this man.The same goes for Cindy, They will rip this couple to shreds. They will become the laughing stock of this trial.The jurors are going to see how far they will go using devious means to protect their murdering daughter. and all their lies and behavior will help convict Casey.
Good Point Colleen….The hearing on the 12th,Judge Strickland hopefully will issue a gag order,after yesterday’s defense denial dance. Geo & Cin better start looking for a hut in the Yukon territory,for their next address. I have a strong feeling their both going to go down for perjury.
loriK——-It just frosts my fannie that they are able to disrespect The Court and the agencies and not be sanctioned for it.——– I feel this way too. Remember their behavior when they were being questioned at the NG desp. They were horrible, mean, rude and disrespectful. They refused to answer questions and George accused the lawyer of giving him the ” finger ” They will not be able to act like this at Caseys trial.The judge will be able to throw them into jail for contempt.
only problem gag order could shut down public access to the document drops. I say let Baezand co. hang themselves on national tv, and say what they will they are only hurting themselves. Baez and co. proving to public their stupidity. Each of these statements on national tv also gives udge more reasons NOT to move the trial. national tv taints all jury pools. So I say let the hang themselves.
Caseydidit
There’s a town in Alaska called Hyder sounds like the perfect new address…
Kldklightrrt—– I agree. The more thay talk the more they lie and they get confused what story they already told.Let them talk , they are helping to convict Casey with all their lies.
Just guessing,but I bet Baez will be on Geraldo tonight since he and LKB are on yet another media tour AGAIN! So much for their excuses saying they don’t have time to work on that POS’s check fraud case.
good afternoon yall,finally back from tax school in baton rouge with hubby,no net at all,YIKES.GEAUX TIGERS.so glad to hear bout the duct tape,about time something goes our way,THANKS EXPRESS.
LLD….Sounds cool to me ! I know this stupid to say this,but I wish Cindy would realize,that her behavior has got too be killing her poor mom,and hopefully Shirley will be around for trial……..As far as a possible gag order,that comment was hypothetical(but a possibility) Judge Strickland will have enough of this crap,so we will have to wait on the ruling for the motions that were filed.
New thread about The Grunds….Boy do I feel for this family,what a nightmare,that one selfish little troll could create……Hey Maw Maw! Geaux Tigers & Gators! lol!

For anyone who has not read this great post…run right now and do it..I spent about an hour late last night looking into how to decide what was a frinction Ridge print….well here it is…IT Is the finger print that you would leave if you were making A clay piece and the impression of your finger print stayed in the clay for ever.it can be your palm or your foot or the finger tips…so they have found a friction print on the tape…which EXCLUDES..Cindy, George and Lee…well who remains???

Hi Debi……I read that late last night also,that could be the “bombshell” ya know…sorry I missed your reply this a.m. about Davis,one demon down and a few more too go! That had to be creepy! A few years back I was a bartender at a club in Tampa, and served Oba Chandler! He is on FL death row for killing the mom,and her 2 daughters and dumped them into Tampa Bay. The man reeked with evil.
Caseydidit..I can only say that it for sure a learning lesson in life when you come across evil..Iknow that I personally would never want to be in jail…I am so thrilled about the finger print…we must all keep the fingers crossed that it is Caseys’.
Gotta run to the Framers Market before they close..be back later..hugs
Later….Deb!…Thanks!
I don’t get this “Good Mom” statement from Casey’s friends. They never really saw Caylee with her to judge. She was always with the Nanny. The only person that saw Caylee more than two or three times was Annie Downing. As for Kathi Belich, you’ve got to love this woman.
Hi everyone….
SUB, you are probably right about Baez and Grrraldo!
Baez is in the “neighborhood” anyway so why not drop in and spread some more “misintepretations” of the lastet info released?
thanks,nora,thats what i thought also,waves to lorik,BY THE WAY MY LSU TIGERS R AHEAD AT HALF TIME,6-0 OVER THE GEORGIA BULLDOGS,PLEASE LET US WIN.LOL.
GEAUX TIGERS ANYWAY,END OF THIRD,WE R LOSING 7-6 CASEYDIDIT.
LSU TIGERS WIN 20-13,GEAUX TIGERS.THANKS CASEYDIDIT MY GIRL.LOL.
This has been bugging me for months, and I don’t know if anyone has ever posted about it:
Does anyone remember the text message from Casey to either Amy Downing or Amy Huzeinga, requesting to borrow duct tape? I think Casey’s American flag outfit she wore to the Anything but Clothes party is held up by duct tape, circling under her arms; somehow the tape is stuck to the upper edge of the flag, then the flag fabric is folded under so the edge of the duct tape cannot be seen.
What was the date of the party?
When was the text sent?
Is the flag outfit in police custody? The duct tape would certainly still be on it.
Could the unusual brand of Henkel duct tape come from Amy to begin with?
Why would a piece duct tape be put on the gas cans?
If the timeline fits, the tape was in the trunk of the car, borrowed from a friend to hold up the flag outfit for the party.
The gas cans are stolen, they are in the trunk. Casey puts a piece of duck tape (already in the trunk) on top of one of the cans,,,for whatever reason, to get the tape “going” while pulling a length off the roll?
Then, the most dreadful scenario with the tape with Caylee in the trunk.
Where was the roll of tape when Casey was arrested the first time? Didn’t we see it on the shelf in the garage?
good questions mimistiggers,wish i could help out on that one,i have no clue,but lets hope and pray state,etc.has all the answers.
Anyone closely attuned to the Casey Anthony case should find the following two articles that appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle on 12/14/04 regarding the death penalty conviction of Scott Peterson to be of great interest. The primary purpose of these articles was to provide the reader with insight into the reasons why the jurors in the Peterson case found him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt - despite his protestations of innocence and despite the lack of forensic evidence directly linking him to this crime. I can assure you that you will be amazed at how many significant aspects of the Anthony case are eerily reminiscent of those of the Peterson case.

To ministiggers: In response to your inquiry regarding the duct tape Amy Huygienza alleged that Casey had stolen from her, this duct tape cannot be possibly related to the duct tape covering Caylee’s mouth and nose since Amy specifically referred to her having recently bought this tape (some time in May 2008) and the manufacturer has indicated that it stopped selling this industrial grade of tape in 2007. As they say: No way, Jose!
