ORLANDO, FLORIDA (AP) -- A judge has ruled that a 911 tape can be used in the trial of a Florida woman accused of killing her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Anthony.

A judge in Orlando ruled Thursday to admit the recording of Casey Anthony's mother telling a dispatcher that her daughter's car smells like a dead body.

Casey Anthony's defense attorneys had tried to stop the 911 call from being played at her trial next May.

Casey Anthony's mother, Cindy, testified that she was under stress when she made the call and said she sensed a lack of urgency from police.

Casey Anthony has pleaded not guilty to killing her 2-year-old daughter. She says a baby sitter kidnapped her daughter, Caylee. The toddler's remains were found about six months after Casey Anthony said she last saw her alive.
