The murder of Caylee Anthony was a highly publicized murder. The body of Caylee Anthony was found dumped in a swampy wooded area not far from her home. All that was left of her body was the skeleton remains. When a body is dumped outside and left lifeless like that it will start to decay. The weather and how long the body has been there effects the condition the police find it in. The remains of Caylee Anthony were found 31 days after she was reported missing but after seeing what shape the body was in forensic scientists said the body may have been there for as long as 6 months.

This is a very difficult case for Forensic scientists. There is a lot of evidence that has been tampered with by animals. A lot of the evidence has been washed away by nature and the weather. Also the body being out there so long and decomposing makes it hard for them to. Cases like this are never easy but they usually find enough evidence to figure out who committed the

And that these types of cases usually take around seven to ten years to solve. After reading that I was also surprised to learn that the trial against Edwards took place around a year after he was arrested.

The rate of decomposition allows investigators to gather a greater understanding of when the victim may have passed because of the incremental change in body temperature, location, and the environment. After the initial estimate from Dr. Blackbourne, Danielle’s body underwent an autopsy the next day.

According to Michael D. Lyman, author of Criminal Investigation: the Art and the Science, the type of death and how the individual dies can, “be discovered through careful examination of both the deceased and the crime scene” (275). However, Foddrill’s corpse was in bad condition due to her being kept in the shed. This decomposition made it difficult for investigators to be certain how she died. For example,
