Mother testifies against Casey Anthony; says 'I love you'

When Casey Anthony's mother Cindy Anthony took the witness stand on Tuesday the trial room saw emotional scenes.
Cindy Anthony sobbed when she was shown the photo of Caylee Anthony in her pink shirt, the remains of which were found alongside her skeletal remains.

Cindy testified against her daughter for the third time during the trial and helped prosecution identity things that belonged to the Anthony household. She told the court that she had never seen the Caylee wearing the dress when she was alive.

But she also looked at Casey Anthony and mumbled 'I love you'. But Casey, who is accused of murdering her daughter by applying chloroform first and sealing her mouth with duct tapes, looked away. Caylee's death took place in June 2008.

Back in her seat, Cindy Anthony was comforted by her husband George. She was the last Prosecution witness. The defense trial is set to begin this week.

Casey Anthony denies the charges that she murdered her toddler daughter. She contends that Caylee drowned accidentally in the swimming pool. If she is found guilty of first degreemurder, Casey Anthony could be sentenced to death by lethal injection.

He story is that she lied about Caylee's death because she was 'conditioned to lie'. She had also accused her father of sexually abusing her for years when she was a child, a charge George has denied in court.

The prosecution says Casey killed the little girl by suffocation and kept the dead body in the boot of her for several days. She then dumped the body in the woods near her parents' home.

The trial is expected to be concluded by the end of the next week.
