Police Interview Played at Anthony Trial

Lead detective takes stand in 8th day of testimony in murder trial

Jurors in the Casey Anthony trial are listening to the woman's nearly hour-long interview with detectives the day after her 2-year-old daughter was reported missing in 2008.

Lead detective Yuri Melich took the stand again Thursday morning, on the eighth day of testimony in Anthony's murder trial.

The Orlando woman is accused of killing her daughter Caylee.

In the interview, Anthony insisted she was not lying when she said a baby sitter kidnapped Caylee.

Earlier Thursday, an acquaintance of Anthony testified he never introduced Casey Anthony to the baby sitter. He and other witnesses during testimony have recounted what they say are lies Anthony told friends and law enforcement officers about what happened to her daughter and where she worked.
