Casey Anthony Trial: Computer Experts Discuss Suspicious Wikipedia Searches

Casey Anthony Trial: Computer Experts Discuss Suspicious Wikipedia Searches: "The bulk of testimony during day 13 of Casey Anthony's first-degree murder trial has centered on forensic searches of computers taken from the Anthony family home; specifically, digital information that allegedly shows someone conducted several suspicious searches on Wikipedia and other sites.

Searched terms included the words 'chloroform,' 'death' and 'internal bleeding.'

John Bradley, owner of SiQuest -- a Canadian software company that developed the program used by the Orange County Sheriff's Office -- testified he was asked to review evidence allegedly found in the internet browsing history of the Anthony family's computer.

Bradley said he confirmed someone had used Google to conduct a search for the keyword 'chloroform' on March 17, 2008. Bradley testified that other searches, conducted at Wikipedia, included 'chloroform,' 'hand to hand combat,' 'inhalation,' 'chest trauma' and 'ruptured spleen.'"
