CASEY ANTHONY JURORS COULD SNIFF 'CAN OF DEATH'

DEATH SMELL

A CAN of death containing the odor of the decomposed remains of her daughter Caylee could be smelled by jurors in Casey Anthony's murder trial.
Hoping to use a novel forensics tests of air from her car, which Anthony's mother Cindy described as "smelling like death" in her 911 call to the cops, prosecutors asked jurors if they had any qualms about viewing images of the child's remains or smelling evidence. But Judge Belvin Perry  might quash their ambitious move. 
He told WKMG:  "I wouldn't be counting too much on it though I am
willing to be persuaded."
He also said he feared any conviction would be reversed on appeal if he let the jury smell the contents of the can, which contains a piece of trunk liner from Casey Anthony's car and banned them from asking jurors about the smell.
The state is now seeking a legal precedent to persuade the Pinellas based judge who is selecting his jury   in the Tampa area because of intense media coverage in Orlando where the alleged murder of 2-year old Caylee occurred.
Anthony, 25, who was told by her lawyer to stop acting the same age as her murdered daughter last week, could face the death penalty if convicted of first-degree murder in her daughter's 2008 death.
She has pleaded not guilty and maintains a babysitter kidnapped Caylee.
