CASEY ANTHONY JUDGE DENIES MOTION FOR ACQUITTAL

WITNESS
THIRD ANNIVERSARY
CASEY Anthony's judge has denied a defense request to have the case against her thrown out of the Orlando court.
Defense attorney Cheney Mason blasted the prosecution's case which ended Wednesday morning, telling the court that the prosecutors had failed to show a murder had taken place.
He said: "There is no evidence to establish when the child died, where she died, how she died, or if anyone was in attendance when she died."

Attacking their case from all angles he said that the prosecution had no witnesses who saw the killing, and no one saw Anthony with the body. 
He continued that there was no there is no absolute proof that the child was suffocated and the tape remnants on her skull, proved nothing because the body was so decomposed.
But Orlando Judge Belvin Perry said in his ruling that this case was for the jury to decide.  
He said: "The state has presented substantial competent evidence for this jury to decided this particular issue," according to WKMG.
Anthony's defense team said they will be ready to call their first witness today, on the third anniversary of Caylee's disappearance.
It is still unknown whether they plan to call her as a witness.
