ORLANDO - Orange County Sheriff's Office investigators returned to the home of George and Cindy Anthony this afternoon armed with a search warrant, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

The couple – parents of 22-year-old Casey Anthony who is accused of murdering her 2-year-old daughter Caylee – remained at the home while investigators conducted the search, according to a media release.

Investigators found "items of evidentiary value," according to the release.

Also this afternoon, the sheriff's office ended its 10-day search of the wooded area at 8900 Suburban Drive where Caylee's bones were found.

Caylee Anthony disappeared in June, but law enforcement authorities were not notified until July.

On Friday, Orange County Medical Examiner Jan Garavaglia announced that the bones first discovered by utility worker Roy Kronk belonged to Caylee.

At 11:30 a.m., Orange County Sheriff's Office Sgt. John Allen informed defense attorney Jose Baez that the sheriff's office would release the crime scene and offered the defense team a chance to inspect to the scene as they had requested. The defense team declined, according to the release.
