ORLANDO, Fla. -- In a change of heart, the state attorney's office has
filed a letter of intent Monday to seek the death penalty for Casey
Anthony.

The court and Casey Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, are being notified.

Previously, the state said they would not seek the death penalty for
Anthony, who is in the Orange County Jail charged with first-degree
murder in connection with the death of her daughter, Caylee.

The state attorney's office is citing "sufficient aggarvating
circumstances" as the reason for Monday's decision.

Meanwhile, the latest legal maneuver of the attorney for Casey
Anthony, Jose Baez, may reveal where he plans to go with his client's
defense.

Baez is asking a judge to let him subpoena cell phone records from a
dozen people -- and some of the names on the list are surprising.

Casey Anthony's own family -- George, Cindy and Lee Anthony -- are on
the list that Baez submitted to Judge Stan Strickland. Several of
Casey Anthony's friends and Roy Kronk are also on the list.

Kronk is the meter reader who found the remains of Caylee Anthony in a
wooded area off of Suburban Drive last December.

A criminal defense lawyer WESH 2 News spoke with said Baez can use
these phone records to find out who Kronk spoke with and whether he
told those people the same things he told investigators about what he
saw and when.

"The state puts on their case first; suddenly all these things that
seemed so incriminating, you lose focus when the defense is raising
issues that affect the credibility of the prosecution," criminal
defense attorney Richard Hornsby said.

Well, some good news for a change. Baez is going to have to pick up his
game on this one now that the DP is back on the table.
