warren to dispute the testimony of dr. spitz that say that medical examiners did a shoddy autopsy in neglecting to open caylee's skull. do you agree? >> i think the autopsy was an incomplete autopsy, a normal autopsy, you look at the jorans in the abdomen, the chest, the head. here, there was no abdomen, there was no chest, the only thing to look into was the skull, and that wasn't looked into. that's part of a complete autopsy. and for an anthropologist to be called to dispute what the forensic pathologist said is just improper, because the anthropologist's job is different than dr. spitz's job, which is to determine anything involving the cause of death. julie: so if you're saying they can't obviously perform an autopsy on organs and the only remains of her was the skull, why is it that they would overlook that, and is that something that the defense will use in their favor? >> i think the defense is using it in its favor. julie: but is it going to work? >> it goes to guilt or innocence of casey as -- i'm not commenting upon,
