Was Dominic Casey searching for the remains of Caylee Anthony? No, he tells momlogic.

As we reported yesterday, a disturbing tape of the Anthony's private investigator Dominic Casey has been making the media rounds. In the footage, recorded on November 15th, Dominic Casey rips open garbage bags and pokes at the earth with a metal prod mere yards from where Caylee's remains were eventually found on December 11 after a six-month search.
Many speculated that Dominic Casey had been tipped off to the location of Caylee's remains by Casey Anthony's family or lawyer.
"That's simply untrue," Dominic tells momlogic.
Instead, the P.I. insists he was merely following up on a statement made by one of Casey Anthony's childhood friends to police on August 12 (incidentally the same day Roy Kronk, the meter reader who eventually discovered Caylee's remains, made his second call to authorities about a suspicious bag -- but that's a whole other can of worms). Kiomarie Cruz, in her statement, makes a link between a shovel Casey borrowed and a location she and Casey used to frequent as teens. "Not a lot of people know about this spot unless you're a teenage kid," Cruz told investigators.
Based on Cruz's testimony, it would seem anyone checking out the location would be looking for the remains of a child. But Dominic says that wasn't his intent. "I was not looking for a dead body," says Dominic. "I was only there to confirm whether or not [the area] is a teen hangout." When asked how confirming that fact would help find Caylee, Dominic says it's standard procedure: "When you conduct an investigation, you go thorough a witness statement and make sure it is correct," he explains.
The most damning evidence to be gleaned from the video is the fact that Dominic is talking on his cell phone, presumably taking direction from someone in the Anthony camp. At one point, he says, "It would be right here."
Initially, it was reported that Dominic was speaking to his daughter. "I just said that flippantly," says Dominic, intent on setting the record straight. "I speak with her maybe 7 to 10 times a day. I was just saying [that] chances are I was talking to her, but I can't be sure." Now psychic, Ginnette Matcia Lucas, claims she was speaking to Dominic. Examination of phone records are pending.
The mystery continues.
"Everyone's trying to spin this into something," laments Dominic. "There was nothing sinister about my search."
Through it all, Dominic remains steadfast in his belief that Casey Anthony is innocent. "I do not believe Casey Anthony had anything to do with her daughter's death," he concludes.
