Last week, Casey Anthony’s defense team filed a motion implicating the man who found Caylee Anthony’s remains in her death. Video evidence consisting of interviews with two of Roy Kronk’s ex-wives was admitted with the motions.

Former meter reader, Roy Kronk, found the slain toddler’s remains in a wooded area near the Anthony family home on Dec. 11, 2008. This was not the first time, however, that he had alerted authorities to a suspicious looking bag in the area.
Kronk had called authorities as early as August 2008 informing them he had seen a suspicious bag in the area. He said, "If you were going to get rid of something like that... it would have been a great place to hide it."
Kronk believes the police may have been hesitant to search the area in August because he had told them the location was infested with rattlesnakes. Instead of a thorough investigation, Kronk claims the authorities made a very quick search of the area and then left. In December, police confirmed they had searched the area after Kronk's tip, but most of the location was under water from the summer storm.

One of Kronk's ex-wives, Jill Kerley, was interviewed by Casey’s defense team and says he “…duct taped my hands one time.” She said he called it the “…100 mile per hour duct tape… nothing can get through it.”

Another of Kronk’s ex-wives, Crystal Sparks, said she once bailed Kronk out of jail at his father’s request after he was arrested for kidnapping a girlfriend. Sparks said Kronk’s father told her “Crystal, there were handcuffs, duct tape and he used a plastic gun he bought at a drugstore.”

Casey is charged with the first-degree murder of her daughter, Caylee, 2. Her trial is slated to begin June 2010.

The court in Florida regarding Casey Anthony murder case must have a lot of time and money to waste. The defence team just hopes that they become famous so that they can take the next case and waste more time and money. Casey Anthony is guilty, guilty, guilty. Little Caylee Anthony deserves some respect and justice. She paid a high price in her short life. She died in the hands of her mother. What a tragedy!
