Prosecutors on Monday released hours of taped interviews by detectives investigating the murder of toddler Caylee Anthony, and they say the evidence links the toddler's young mother to the death.
The new files, released on DVDs, cover interviews with Roy Kronk, the utility worker who first alerted authorities to remains of a body in August, and the deputies who first responded to those calls.

There are also interviews with jail guards who oversaw Anthony when her daughter's remains were found.
A shift supervisor at the jail where Casey Anthony is being held told investigators that Anthony cried and asked for sedatives after learning of the Dec. 11 discovery of the remains. DNA tests completed days later showed the remains belonged to her daughter, Caylee Anthony, who'd been missing for six months.
Weeks earlier, Anthony calmly asserted to investigators that she believed her daughter was still alive during an interview the day she was indicted on a first degree murder charge, according to another recording released by prosecutors Monday.
"You know certain things about your child. You can feel that connection," Anthony tells investigators during the Oct. 14 interview. "I know that she's alive whether you have a bucketload
of evidence downstairs that contradicts that and says otherwise or all you have is speculation."
FBI Agent Nick Savage responds: "We have a lot or else we wouldn't have made it to this point. A lot."
Anthony's attorney was planning to release a statement later Monday.
Casey Anthony is set to stand trial in October the charge that she killed Caylee, who had gone missing about six months before the remains were found.
Casey Anthony claimed that Caylee was kidnapped and has pleaded not guilty. Hundreds of volunteers helped search for Caylee after she was reported missing over the summer.
In February, the state attorney's office released documents showing the same type of laundry bag, duct tape and plastic bag discovered with the child's body also were found in the house where Caylee lived.
