Same goes for the garbage bags.
I'm looking at a roll of duct tape on my desk right now. It's common stuff
for people to have. I use mine to tape the battery into my broken remote controls. 
The other stuff; heart stickers, blanket? The child lives in the home too and
has access to those things. It would be strong evidence to find those things
in the home of a different suspect that did not know the child. But finding things
on the child that came from the home the child lives in would be exactly normal.
Say the kid has home made jam on her shirt that exactly matches the jam
in the home. I'm like, No shit Sherlock the kid eats jam at home. That's not
evidence of a murder, that's evidence that the kid actually lived at home and
nothing else.
The biggest evidence I see against her is her own statements and actions.
Those are hard to explain away. Real hard. |
I'm not an expert on duct tape but perhaps the rolls of tape are manufactured in recorded lots in a certain amount. Like roll 1-100 is lot 1. Rolls 101-200 is lot 2. What if the lot number is recorded and printed on the inside cardboard the duct tape rolls around.
What if there is just enough chemical difference between the brands of duct tapes manufactured that you could tell which company made what roll. There just might be enough differentiation one could determine what roll of tape a single piece came from.
I seem to remember them talking about it back when they were actually collecting the evidence and they remarked about the specific perforations on the item ( can't recall if it was the tape or the garbage bag ) that MATCHED the item found at the house with the item found with the body. If they were different it would EXCLUDE the evidence but because it matches it helps bolster the prosecution's case.
As for the stickers and blanket, of course the child lived in the home and that just shows that someone that had access to the home took the child, wrapped her in the blanket from the home, wrapped duct tape that matches the duct tape found at the home around her face and then placed a sticker that matches a page of stickers found at the home.
So one has to think did a stranger sneak into the house, find a roll of duct tape ( I never can find mine when I need it
) kill the child, wrap her in a blanket, place a sticker on her head then go find a garbage bag to carry the body out and then place it in the woods.
Of course that doesn't explain why the trunk of Casey's car smelled like a dead body or why she didn't report her child missing for 30 some days or why she has lied about everything from being employed at Disney to having a Nanny nobody including her family had ever met.
Did a stranger do it or did someone with normal access to the house do it.
It's all about building the case with evidence and the process of elimination and as long as the prosecution doesn't try to make her put on a glove I think this case is a slam dunk
