but, no, dr. spitze of the five medical examiners who literally wrote the book that everybody relies on. he's a very, very respectable man. and i think his word will carry some weight with the jury. but what they're going to do, i think, or at least i think the defense hopes they would do, is look at what dr. spitz has to say and the problems with the tape we talked about before, the lack of dna, et cetera, et cetera, and say maybe it makes more sense. in fact, the remains were moved and if that's the case, of course, the suppositions of the prosecution regarding the tape as being a murder weapon are in serious trouble. >> we'll leave it there. paul henderson and andrea lyon, thanks so much. >> thank you. >> good to talk to you. >>> ahead, breaking news. new word iran is helping in syria's brutal crackdown on its own citizens. >>> and on the rediculist coming up, an online dating website just dumps 30,000 people from its service? you'll never guess why. we'll explain on the rediculist. and i went online

dr. spitz was phenomenal today. >> in speaking of which, the pictures we are seeing of casey anthony, has her head turned away because apparently they are showing forensic evidence, they're showing more photographs and so she is appearing to be a little unsettled by that. werner spitz, this pathologist said he describes this autopsy as shoddy. he says in fact, he testified just moments ago that the duct tape was placed on that skull during decomposition. avery, does that sound like a legitimate call or will that be challenged in any way? is he credible? >> after decomposition and let me tell you something, fredricka, they got nobody better. werner spitz is world class, he goes back to the kennedy assassination. mary jo kopechne. he's the first quality witness we have seen supporting the defense in this, challenging the forensics, the science here. i think this is the only thing that we have seen coming out of the defense team, and it is important. reasonable doubt, we will have to wait and see.

you saw dr. spitz. he had some interesting things to say about the cause of death. >> he should have been the defense's star witness. remember, he's saying that this could be an accident. he's saying that duct tape, which prosecutors are saying was a murder weapon, he's saying that it was placed there afterwards, autopsy was shoddy. but yet on cross examine prosecutors were able to undermine much of his testimony, in the end when one of his theory didn't fit, he suggests that the medical exam ners may have staged evidence. once you're in the position, your response of theory doesn't fit, they staged everyday, you're in a tougher spot. >> we were even and everyone else talking about this excon, this connection with casey's dad -- >> right, we were finally thinking that the defense would be able to link george anthony to bad conduct. the problem is excon holds a press conference at the courthouse saying, i don't know this guy and the reason he was linking him to george anthony based on cell phones convers

dr. werner spitz testified about the condition of the child's remains and the duct tape found on her skull. >> is it your opinion that the duct tape was applied to the skull after it was fully skeletonized? >> it is my opinion that the duct tape was stuck on there after the skin had deteriorated, after the skin was decomposed. >> another expert was dismissed from the stand. >>> there is talk of a diplom diplomatic breakthrough in afghanistan today. barr starr says this could be a first step to ending the nearly ten-year long conflict. >> it has long been said that afghanistan will be solved by a political settlement with the taliban and with the insurgents. you can't kill them all. this is not going to happen. so there will be eventually, it is hoped, some type of political settlement. what is going on is certainly the u.s. is trying to identify key insurgent leaders that they potentially could work with, that they and nato could work with. >> the u.s. state department is now on record saying it would join any effort at reconciling those insurgents who are willing to renounce al qaeda. >>>

dr. werner spitz, world-renowned forensic pathologist. he's been considered an expert handling cases date back to the assassination of jfk, examining thousands of bodies in his career. he's now on the stand testifying for the defense. he examined caylee anthony's body. and what he has determined is that he is in disagreement with the authorities here, and that he believes that the duct tape that was found on the body, on caylee anthony's body, was with not placed across her mouth, used to suffocate her, but instead was placed on the body after the body had decomposed. his opinion is trying to blow a hole in the theory of the prosecution that caylee anthony was chloroformed, she had duct tape placed on her mouth, placed in the trunk of a car, and later disposed of in the woods, near the anthony's home. so what he's telling us is dramatically different from what the authorities here have testified already in this case, for the prosecution. and, again, this is something that the prosecution is now going to have a chance to ask questions of h
