Attorney Grills Deputy Who Found Caylee Anthony's Remains

New developments in the Caylee Anthony murder case: A former meter readers says deputies came just feet from Caylee Anthony's remains but never looked inside the garbage bag. Now the sheriff's deputy who responded to the initial call is getting grilled by Casey Anthony's defense team.

For hours Casey Anthony's defense team grilled Orange County Sheriffs Office employee Richard Cain. He's the former deputy who then meter reader Roy Kronk pointed out a suspicious bag and something that he said could possibly have been a skull too on August thirteenth.

Kronk found the remains four months later, near the Anthony home. This is the first time Anthony's attorney have been able to question the deputy. According to court documents Kronk pointed out a white item to Deputy Cain that was between 4 to 10 feet from dry land. That was on August 13th. The deputy walked towards the water line looked around and slipped. Kronk told investigators that Deputy Cain got within 6 feet of the object and the bag but never touched. Kronk told the deputy he thought he saw a human skull and says the deputy started arguing with him on whether the remains would be skeletonized or not.

The deputy reportedly told Kronk that he was wasting the county's time and Kronk felt belittled. The Anthony's attorney Jose Baez says he's not done asking Cain questions. Baez says he will have Cain back in court and continue depositions at a later date and time.
