ORLANDO - Sheriff's deputies used cadaver-sniffing dogs to search Friday for a 2-year-old girl who mysteriously vanished more than a month ago, trying to determine what happened to the toddler whose mother was arrested after she came to police this week to report the disappearance.
Authorities said they didn't rule out the possibility that Caylee Marie Anthony was still alive. The girl's 22-year-old mother, Casey Marie Anthony, was arrested Wednesday on charges of child neglect and criminal obstruction.
Sheriff's Sgt. John Allen said the woman told detectives she had dropped off her daughter at a babysitter last month.
On Friday, authorities searched the yard of a home belonging to the woman's parents. She allegedly asked a neighbor to borrow a shovel about the time Caylee went missing, deputies said.
