Lee Anthony, right, is the brother of Casey Anthony. Casey is charged with murder of Lee's neice, Caylee .Will Lee Anthony turn State's Witness in the case against his sister, Casey Anthony?
That is one of many questions needing answers on this last day of 2008.
It could be brother against sister when the murder case against Casey Anthony begins.
Lee Anthony's attorney, Tom Luka, said eariler, the states attorney's office will likely want to put his client on the stand.
VIDEO Report: Will Lee Anthony take the stand?
Tom Luka says he believes Orange County Sheriff's Office detectives and the State Attorney's Office will likely want to question his client Lee again and the possibly of charging him is highly likely.
Luka also believes the state would rather use his client Lee Anthony to testify instead of George and Cindy Anthony.
“Speaking as an ex-prosecutor, having a parent testify against a child is extraordinarily sympathetic to a jury and can draw sympathy towards a defendant as opposed to away from them. On the other hand, siblings do not have that same sort of connection, nor are they liable to break down, as far as emotionally, thus, not evoking the same kind of reaction from a jury.”
None of the Anthony's have been questioned since Caylee's remains were discovered and identified but Luka believes its just a matter of time.
