ORLANDO, Fla. -

Walsh also had some harsh words for investigators, saying every day they don't talk to Anthony about her daughter is another day the child could be in jeopardy.

"If she's guilty of something, then by God, prove it," Walsh said. "But if she isn't, stop with this and go out into the field."

Orange County Sheriff Kevin Beary said the focus is not on Anthony.

"We need to get family members, law enforcement and the defense attorney all on the same sheet of music," Beary said. "It's all about finding Caylee."

Also, a scheduled visitor for Anthony in jail Tuesday night was a no show.

Judge OKs Release Of Calls

Also Tuesday, A judge denied a motion to suppress jailhouse phone calls and information in the case.

Baez said he wanted to block the public from hearing calls the woman makes from jail or from seeing who visits her because it could hurt the search for her daughter, Caylee.

Baez said if the family can't speak with Casey Anthony freely, it could slow or prevent anyone from finding her. He also told the judge if he denied the motion, he was playing with fire.

"Your position, Mr. Baez, seems to be, 'Just trust us. We are trying to do an investigation here and if get anything we will tell you about it. Just trust us.' Well, it just doesn't work that way," Judge Stan Strickland said.

Lawyers representing the sheriff's office argued that detectives are in charge of the investigation and they decide whether it is for release, Local 6 reported.

Strickland then denied the motion.

"When push comes to shove in a case like this, I'm going to err on the side of the First Amendment every time and I'm going to do so by denying your motion and that is going to be it," Strickland said.
