Jose Baez: Casey’s Car Smelled Like a Dead Body

It seems that Jose Baez has released a “tell-all” book about the Casey Anthony trial. The book,  “Presumed Guilty: Casey Anthony: The Inside Story”, focuses on his experience defending Anthony, who was presumed guilty by both the media and the public.

In the book, Baez claims that when he first examined the trunk of his client’s car, it “smelled like a dead body”.

From Gather.com:

“I could smell something rotten,” he wrote. “I had been to a morgue before and my first impression was that this smelled like a dead body. I smelled something else, a chemical-like substance. If you took a good strong whiff, it almost hurt your nostrils. ‘Oh my God,’ I thought. ‘I’m going to have to talk to Casey about taking a plea.'”

Baez wasn’t the only person to say Anthony’s car smelled suspicious. When her dad George Anthony picked her car up from the impound lot, he said it smelled horrible.

“It smelled like something that you would never forget,” he said. He also admits to praying he wouldn’t find little Caylee Anthony’s body inside.

Even Casey Anthony’s mom Cindy Anthony told a 9-11 operator when frantically calling to report Caylee missing that “it smells like there’s been a dead body in the damn car.”
