CSI technicians arrived at the Anthony home Wednesday afternoon with a search warrant and left with several small bags of evidence.

They spent nearly four hours inside the home that Casey Anthony and her daughter, Caylee, shared with her parents, George and Cindy.

"We're still looking for any leads that will help us find Caylee or find out what happened," said Orange County Sgt. John Allen. "The meeting was not contentious. The fact that we're here doesn't mean that anyone is a suspect."

The search was the third one at the Anthony home since Caylee was reported missing July 15. During a search last week, CSI techs removed two gas cans from the home, and the family now admits that Casey stole those cans before she reported her daughter missing.

"That's irrelevant to this case, so there's no reason to bring it up," said Cindy.

She says CSI only took the cans because there were fingerprints on them that didn't match the family. She also says the theft doesn't prove that her daughter, Casey, is a murderer.

"Casey's just as much a victim as Caylee is, but Caylee's the one that's not safe out there."

Caylee turns three on Saturday.
