Casey Anthony's murder trial was cut short today when she was taken ill after pictures of her dead daughter's skull were shown.
Anthony cried and looked away as graphic photos of her two-year-old daughter Caylee's remains were shown to the jury at the trial in Orlando.
Judge Belvin Perry had warned anyone who might become queasy to leave the courtroom before the images were displayed.
Shortly after the images were shown he sent the jury home for the day, asking them not to speculate about why court was ending early.
Earlier in the day Anthony's brother, Lee, testified his sister had told him a nanny abducted her daughter because she didn't think the 25-year-old was a good mother.
Anthony dabbed her eyes with a tissue as a series of images revealed how pieces of duct tape were still attached to her daughter's remains.
She is on trial accused of murdering little Caylee in June 2008, before hiding her body in the woods near her home. Caylee's remains were not found until December that year.
Today Anthony's brother, Lee, told the court how his sister claimed a nanny called 'Zanny' had met her in an Orlando park and abducted Caylee.
He said his sister told him: 'It was Zanny's opinion that Casey was not being a good mother for Caylee and that she was taking Caylee from her to teach her a lesson.'
According to Anthony, the nanny told her not to tell police, the court heard. Mr Anthony testified his sister said she didn't try to stop Zanny from taking the little girl because she was scared and 'didn't know what to do'.
He also said Anthony claimed the nanny had taken over her MySpace account and was sending her messages telling her where to go as she searched for Caylee.
The court heard that Anthony told her brother the nanny changed her account password to timer55, saying it had something to do with the number of days between the date Caylee was taken and August 9, 2008, the little girl's third birthday.
Mr Anthony said: 'It was her hope she would get her back on that day.'
Yesterday there were gasps in the courtroom as an expert revealed Anthony's home computer had been used to search for harrowing words such as 'neck breaking', 'death' and 'head injuries' as well as 'chloroform'.
The searches, made while Caylee was still alive in March 2008, included 'internal bleeding', 'inhalation', 'ruptured spleen' and 'death'.
Jurors were also shown heartbreaking new pictures of Casey and her daughter, which were recovered from the family computer.
The prosecution’s case centres on the theory that Anthony incapacitated her daughter using chloroform and sealed duct tape over her nose and mouth, then disposed of her body, storing it in the boot of the car before dumping it on wasteland near the family home.
The defence - who claim Caylee died of accidental drowning - said Bradley's computer had a bug in it, that there was no way of knowing who used the computer to search for the terms and that the user only spent seconds on the pages.
Anthony, who faces the death penalty if convicted, has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.
The trial continues.
