It makes one wonder....Does Jesse regret that he took the paternity test? Things would possibly be different. I feel sorry for the Grund family throughout all of this. Out of all the people involved with Caylee, Jesse and his family seem to be most heartbroken at the twist of events. My prayers are with them.I don't think he had much choice in taking the paternity test. He knew that Caylee probably was not his child. I don't think that going along with Casey's version would have set well with his parents. I think he was (very much) in love with Casey and probably has regrets in regards to his relationship with her.mo

On Fox News now. What are they talking about the smell? That when the MR called in August the smell was mentioned. When was this? Who is saying this? I doubt there would be a smell after two months. imo

I'm wondering . . . When did Casey claim Zannie began caring for Caylee? And was Zannie's name ever mentioned prior to Casey having allegedly seen her name on an apartment application?

Like most of you, I don't believe Zannie exists, but if they're going to continue to insist she's real, it seems to be a relevant question.

And again, you are accusing me of putting things out there based on some news souce when I specifically keep repeating to you that these are just gut instincts and my opinions? What are you trying to do, get me banned?

Nikki, Let me put it this way. I go by instincts, I go by actions which speak louder than words and I go by the possibility that this story has not completely unfolded yet and I leave every possibility open. If you choose not to agree, that is your prerogative, but please, allow me the right to express my opinions, my feelings and my instincts and stop questioning every single sentence I put out there. Respect me and I'll respect you. Let's agree to disagree, shall we?

Um, I would NEVER try to get ANYONE banned, regardless of if we agree or not. If you want to protect yourself from getting banned, simply put IMO at the end of your post. You absolutely have every right to think whatever you want; however, others should be able to question you about it in order to further their opinion, without being accused of trying to have you banned or questioning 'every single sentence'.
And on the 'every single sentence', give me a break!! I have only questioned 3 of your posts and I thought that was allowed, since we are on a message board. IMO

Any word on when the second autopsy is to take place?

I believe Casey told Rev. Grund about Zannie being the new babysitter after the Grunds had been taking care of Caylee for about a year.

i agree that donating the stuffed animals to charity was a great idea, and i hope it brightens some less fortunate kids day. i was just mind boggled as to what gave the anthonys the right to donate these items as they werent their property. they were left in memorial of caylee not as presents for caylee(then they would have been theirs to do with as they wish). i mean if i let people start a memorial for little caylee out in front of my house would the anthonys be able to come and take it down. theirs a difference in people leaving something as a memorial for someone and someone leaving a gift to somone. after all that being said i am still glad that the toys were donated.


This is what I have been hoping for all along. I think this is the first truly "good" thing that the A's have done since this whole mess began. Good for them!

Actually even Henry Lee mentioned the smell last month. He said the car still smelled. (Is that what you are talking about?)



Henry Lee also mentioned "the maggots" in the trunk right after he inspected the car. (Scratching my head) Were ther STILL maggots there at that time? If he did not see them, why bother mentioning them?

Yes, she had been using the name "Zanny" for a long time. The name Zenaida BlahBlah Hyphen Blah was new.

I don't know if the defense is going to keep insisting she is real. It seems a tough road to take when no one else on the face of the earth has ever seen her, and nobody can testify about her at trial except the defendant, who ain't gonna testify.

Hey Pro...

I never insinuated that, (um... yeah I kinda did in one post way back, responding to someone else)... but not really, what I meant was that it was simply a PR moment for them...

This is the first time I have ever seen a memorial taken down and donated to charity. Not that it's a bad thing... I think it's a great idea! I just don't think it was the Anthony's idea... thats all!:wink:I'm in conflict about the whole "memorial". IMO, The Anthony's should have just left the memorial there. It was not their property.

Well here's the thing, I don't believe any of their words or actions prevented LE from finding Caylee. Not at all. Nor did any of their words and actions diminish the case against Casey.

What I DO think was that LE made a HUGE mistake in not following up on the August tips. If they had, Caylee would have been found four months sooner. And the case against Casey may have been even greater.

All in my opinion.

I see what your saying but you have to understand how bizarre it sounds that LE is at fault for not finding where Casey hid Caylee's remains sooner. I know your not saying it but reading it it looks like your casting more fault on LE then Casey

I believe they did follow the August tips and there was a cross communication of who went where and so what especially at this same location.

Whether it was a matter of symantics on the report or it wasn't properly relayed. IMO they did not want to waste time going over territory they'd gone over.

In the end I believe it was a cursory check over and yep, they screwed up. Consider the amount of leads and everything else they were dealing with I still think they did a great job.

Just think of the time they wasted checking out Grund, Amy, reports of these guys going to Puerto Rico separately and the sinister implications of that. *eye roll* These guys certainly did waste time. Caylee Sightings. Universal walk thru.

Yep wasted alot of time and manpower for naught!

I have no idea what they are going to do. I do know that they are & have been in the deepest pits of h#ll. As for 'face reality' - I don't think there is anything in this world that forces anyone to accept another person's reality.

In your reality, in my reality, Casey cold-bloodedly murdered Caylee. But that's just us. Other parents have lived lives full of complete denial when it comes to the their own children committing heinous actions.

Last I heard, Darlie Routier's mother is still on the "my daughter could not possibly have killed my grandchildren" train. So are Scott's parents. I haven't followed the Entwistle case but I believe his parents are, too.

Ted Bundy's mother (IIRC) could never accept that her son could POSSIBLY be guilty. Kenneth McDuff's mother Addie believed in her son's innocence her entire life (she reportedly marched to school & threatened one of his teachers with a gun when he was a kid because he got in trouble at school).

An interesting case very similar to this one. Google Valiree Jackson.

Her father murdered her. This is what his father said about him.

Spokane County had probable cause to put the tracking device on Brad's car," said Dick Jackson, who said has searched in vain for indications that his son was not guilty. "It's a hard thing from day one. We want justice for Valiree."

If Caylee had a nanny named zannie, as talkative as that child was, she would have been talking about her to people. People other than the Anthonys. Somebody else would have heard her.

No wait, I think "Jeff" was code for "boyfriend." Ricardo's house was actually Zanny's, who was in cahoots with TonE (unbeknownst to either of them), and the pyramid on the back of a dollar bill leads you to a entrance in Mount Rushmore which might hold the National Treasure, which...

Have you been bothering them?

My original post has to do with whether or not they are continuing to back their daughter and her lies, which will play a very important part in the criticisms they will receive from the public, imo. Not to mention their legal exposure and whether or not they receive the full immunity they have requested from LE through their attorney. imo

Hi Scampi -- It's been a long time. :seeya:

You 'spose this might give any of us some insight as to what's to come?

On Friday night, (AFTER Caylee's DNA was officially matched to the skeleton remains) "DateLine" had a short segment with the Anthony's current attorney, Brad Conway.

Conway made the statement that, (paraphrased): It didn't make sense that a mother who murdered her child would abandon the body nearby - just a few blocks away from her home. (Apparently Conway doesn't know much about the location statistics re: maternal filicide.)

HOWEVER, he went on to state that it would be a perfect place for SOMEBODY ELSE responsible for Caylee's murder to dump the body to focus the attention on Casey.

I doubt very much if Conway was speaking without instructions from Cindy and George. Soooo, be prepared for the "Somebody FRAMED Casey" spin to be screamed on all the networks.

Unfortunately, I think anyone who hoped the Anthonys would now be realistic and TRUTHFUL will be sadly disappointed.

Caylee drew the short 'value-straw' months and months ago. Nothing's changed. Shame on ALL of the Anthonys! :mad:

Meanwhile, two men carrying cameras and measuring equipment arrived at the home of George and Cindy Anthony on Monday, but they refused to identify themselves to Local 6 News reporter Mike DeForest.

DeForest said Cindy Anthony met up with the men and escorted them to the back of a side fence, where they took photographs and measurements. The purpose of their visit was not known.

Where do you think they will keep her remains over the next few years? Once they do the 2nd autopsy there is no reason to keep her in storage, I have never heard of such a thing.

IIRC Danielle Van Dam was cremated before the trial.

I hadn't heard of it either but it happened recently where I live to a little girl horrifically abused and murdered by her parents. The remains haven't been released yet (both parents convicted of 1st degree). They may not be released for some time because there will probably be an appeal filed.

Since the Nightmare Team won't be 'responding to the scene'... Henry Lee won't have a chance to remove any evidence or plant any evidence.

That's a good thing.

Once it is altered or changed, it is very difficult to put together."**

Not sure how things work in Lee's world but here LE does an investigation and the reports etc. are handed over to the prosecution. Lawyers and their experts are not called to a crime scene that hasn't been cleared. LE hasn't finished processing everything and getting forensic results. Gimme a break.

Just watched Jesse's interview on the Today programme. Thank you so much to whoever provided the link.

What a lovely young man and what a tragedy he is dealing with. How sad that one selfish young girl's actions have impacted on his life so greatly. He was the one man , it seems, that was prepared to step up and take responsibility. I feel so sorry for all the young people who are having their personal lives dissected because of Casey.

I think the stuffed animals should have been given (in Caylee's name) to the needy to begin with. Out in the elements, they will just get icky. Lets face it, poor liitle Caylee can't use them. Her mother made sure of that! I also don't like when someone is killed in an auto accident, leaving a memorial at the sight, or at someones house. I don't blame LeeA for removing it, it is just the way he did it. When did all this start anyway. It wasn't done in my youth, that I recall. That is akin to putting a black wreath on the door, when someone dies. Which they do not do anymore, to my knowlege. Which is good in my opinion. moo

As I said before Henry Lee can not be trusted to know what he is even talking about.
It is ridiculous to expect the LE to allow the defense to investigate while they are still doing an initial invetigation.
Most times the defense only gets involved after the initial investigation and then is hired by the accused.
It is like putting the cart before the horse.
do they actually expect the public to believe LE invites the defense to investigate a crime while they are in the middle of their investigation?
Most times there is not even a person to defend at this point in time.

QUESTION: Hey, Cindy, did Caylee ever talk about Zenaida Gonzalez? Did she ever say the baby-sitter's name?

CINDY ANTHONY: She talked about her puppy all the time.

QUESTION: Did she ever say the baby-sitters name?

CINDY ANTHONY: I never asked her about the baby-sitter. I mean, when I got her, it was all about her being home and getting love and playing and just doing stuff, so there was never a reason. She talked about her puppy all the time.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,402098,00.html

Now, George, during his FBI interview, went further. He said that if the name "Zanny" was brought up, she never showed any sign of recognizing the name, while she would chatter on about other people she'd see during the day, like Lee and "Ma-wee."

In my opinion we have not heard the end of the Anthonys. Who wants to bet that after Christmas the vigils will resume? It's a given IMHO. Caylee's name will be evoked on behalf of all missing children.


It is going to be something to witness, the rehabilitation of the A's for the A's and by the A's . Those are the means. The end will be to get Casey off the hook if at all possible. After that it's on to new lives as advocates for missing children. Shaking hands, speeches, travel, TV spots. So much better than the drudgery of that old 9-5 job.

I see it coming.It may be tried, but the world has already seen what they are capable of: the way they carried themselves during this ordeal, which isn't over yet.

Yes, she had been using the name "Zanny" for a long time. The name Zenaida BlahBlah Hyphen Blah was new.

I don't know if the defense is going to keep insisting she is real. It seems a tough road to take when no one else on the face of the earth has ever seen her, and nobody can testify about her at trial except the defendant, who ain't gonna testify.

And, most telling, that there are no phone calls to or from Zanny in any of Casey's voluminous cell/text phone records. None. Nada. Zilch.

Maybe because HE knows HE is not above manipulating evidence (as shown in the Spector fiasco) he thinks all people are like him, and would do the same. Sorry, Henry---there may be some bad apples in the bunch, but not necessarily @ this crime scene.

Of course they know.

But the point of those shows is to get people to WATCH the shows. Whether they are watching because they agree with a host or guest says - or whether they are watching because they are incensed with what a host or guest says - the main thing is to keep them watching.

Henry Lee didn't say what he said because he doesn't know how criminal investigations work. He said what he did so he can keep himself, this case, whatever he is involved in, in FRONT of the media.

Baez doesn't have to believe the stuff he says in front of the cameras. Neither do the rest of them that make statements, whether they are profound or preposterous. They are there to pique the interest of the audience. You. Me. Everybody else. The day their ratings get to the point that they can't attract advertising revenue, there will be less of this stuff. I don't think it going to happen real soon, though, because as a society we seem to have a huge appetite for crime stories & a lot of tolerance for BS.

I don't know if any of the defense team except Baez has even met Cindy, LKB, the last I heard, which I admit had to be maybe Friday, still had not even met her client!!! Anyway, as was pointed out in another post--each attorney is loyal to his or her own client. No matter who foots the bill (and the A's, I think I can safely say, aren't) the loyalty is to the client. So, Casey's team will do what they think best for Casey, whether they let the A's proffer any suggestions or not. IMO

Speaking only for myself, no. I do not think the senior Anthonys will have any say in what direction the defense team goes.

Baez has been very successful in convincing Casey to not accept any visitors. Whatever he said to her, it has worked so far. He can control what information gets to her parents. In that regard, I think he has done some very impressive manuevering.

The senior Anthonys are at the mercy of Baez. In a way, so is Casey (at this point, anyway). On some level I wonder who, if anyone, has advised Baez on how to deal with Casey & her lying ways. I think he has managed to do something that she wants now & has wanted in the past - to be the center of the universe.

I don't think Baez believes she is the center of the universe. But all he has to do is keep her convinced that she really is the most important thing and that he only, only, ONLY wants to work in her best interests.

We'll see how it all pans out. One thing I do NOT expect is for LKB to have any personal interaction with Casey. I think both she & Baez know that the best way to handle Casey is to have men appear before her, seemingly enraptured in her presence.

Exactly. For neither Cindy or George to have never ever met this so called baby sitter is horrible. What if Casey was injured going to or coming from her imaginary job? Woudn't THEY have to go get Caylee? This is absurd in every sense of the word.
when I brought up the fact that caylee never mentioned "zanny" I wondered too why no people interviewing her/them never mentioned that.

Well here's the thing, I don't believe any of their words or actions prevented LE from finding Caylee. Not at all. Nor did any of their words and actions diminish the case against Casey.

What I DO think was that LE made a HUGE mistake in not following up on the August tips. If they had, Caylee would have been found four months sooner. And the case against Casey may have been even greater.

All in my opinion.


I agree with you, SS. Most of what the A's have told LE and the FBI have been what they were told by Casey... they didn't make that stuff up. They wanted to believe her, and stand by her. How would that be hindering LE's searching or finding her?
It's my understanding that there were never any searches organized by OSCO... maybe because a month went by before she was reported missing, but still... they should have given it some effort.

I agree, if Zanny existed... Caylee would have discussed her... my kids tell me about every teacher, even subs and about ever sitter or person new they meet. And they tell their Gramma's w/o any prodding. Especially someone she supposedly spent SO much time with.

IMO, it would be an unusual child to not come home, bubbling about her day, who she played with, etc. What games THE CARETAKER (babysitter/nanny/daycare worker, etc) had them play, what the caretaker said to little Johnny after he pulled a chair out from Janey, etc etc etc. When they bubble over EVERYONE they had contact w/that day in any significant way makes the conversation.

Unless they are cut off @ the pass. Oh, Susie, please, let's talk about the puppy or something. You can wait and tell mommy about your day.

And, if Caylee had a nanny, she would not likely have a roomful of charges like in a day care. So, her talking about her day would REALLY include talking about the nanny. Nanny--that still floors me. In these parts, a NANNY is a person who @ the least, comes TO THE HOME to care for the child(ren) and usually lives there except her day off. Anyone else is a baby sitter or day care provider.

OTOH---perhaps Zanny did not become the Nanny until after Casey ran away from home? Instead of the nanny spending the time in the home, Caylee spent a lot of time w/nanny--days @ a time, it would seem. Nope, that wouldn't work, either, as Caylee was killed right about the time Casey ran away from home. Sorry, I get to thinking, and get carried away.

Lee: **We want to know the location of the plastic bag and skull," he says. "How many bones were inside the bag? How many bones were outside. We don't know anything directly from the sheriff's office. As an expert, you can only look at the original crime scene or original evidence. Once it is altered or changed, it is very difficult to put together."**

Not sure how things work in Lee's world but here LE does an investigation and the reports etc. are handed over to the prosecution. Lawyers and their experts are not called to a crime scene that hasn't been cleared. LE hasn't finished processing everything and getting forensic results. Gimme a break.

The love in these cases is conditional. I doubt they would love an evil stranger who killed their grandchild. If you love a person no matter what he does because he is your child, that is a condition.

I think it's totally possible to still unconditionally love your child without condoning their behavior. The Anthonys' problem is that they don't love Casey enough to to hold her accountable for her unacceptable behaviors. Pretty poor parenting, IMO.

Of course they know.

But the point of those shows is to get people to WATCH the shows. Whether they are watching because they agree with a host or guest says - or whether they are watching because they are incensed with what a host or guest says - the main thing is to keep them watching.

Henry Lee didn't say what he said because he doesn't know how criminal investigations work. He said what he did so he can keep himself, this case, whatever he is involved in, in FRONT of the media.

Baez doesn't have to believe the stuff he says in front of the cameras. Neither do the rest of them that make statements, whether they are profound or preposterous. They are there to pique the interest of the audience. You. Me. Everybody else. The day their ratings get to the point that they can't attract advertising revenue, there will be less of this stuff. I don't think it going to happen real soon, though, because as a society we seem to have a huge appetite for crime stories & a lot of tolerance for BS.

JMO

And, IMO, it is especially important for the defense team to keep this case front and center, discussed on talk shows and headlines everyday--so they can whine about excessive or overzealous media coverage, and they can't possibly get a fair trial for their client and whaaa, whaaa, whaaa.

I remember something along that line, too. And, not only was she the best mom (possibly Mother of the Year had Caylee not been found) but she acted like the mother of all her friends, too. :closedeyes:

And, even now her friends (and Cindy was talking about while in school) still call her (Casey) "mom." GMAB!!!! And, how many of her childhood/high school friends have been in her life since, oh, let's say since she quit school? Where are they now? Have they been, up to the time Casey ran away from home, @ the A's house even once a week? None of them seemed to have stepped up to support "mom" yet---maybe Baez is going to have them come in the impact statements after she is convicted?

I think the stuffed animals should have been given (in Caylee's name) to the needy to begin with. Out in the elements, they will just get icky. Lets face it, poor liitle Caylee can't use them. Her mother made sure of that! I also don't like when someone is killed in an auto accident, leaving a memorial at the sight, or at someones house. I don't blame LeeA for removing it, it is just the way he did it. When did all this start anyway. It wasn't done in my youth, that I recall. That is akin to putting a black wreath on the door, when someone dies. Which they do not do anymore, to my knowlege. Which is good in my opinion. moo

I have thought this over and have done a 180. I believe that people have a right to do what they want with these stuffed toys. Had they wanted to send them to a shelter, they would have. They paid for these toys and wanted them exactly where they placed them, near the place where Caylee was thrown away by her mother.

They did not place them at the anthony home, because lee anthony gathered them up and put them in a trash bag. That's what the family did with those kind sentiments.

To have the family interfere again is disgusting and I am glad to see people filling the area up again. It's their money and they have every right to designate where they place their gift.

And believe it or not... there are quite a few folks who think it is odd that the same meter man who called THREE TIMES back in Aug. should also be the same man who stumbled across the remains. What are the odds, considering that the area was supposed to have been searched before. I don't believe that he had a part in the crime... what I believe is that the officers who were sent out should have done more than they did at the time. If this man found the body so easily... they could have found it just as easily if they had actually looked.

Speaking only for myself, no. I do not think the senior Anthonys will have any say in what direction the defense team goes.

Baez has been very successful in convincing Casey to not accept any visitors. Whatever he said to her, it has worked so far. He can control what information gets to her parents. In that regard, I think he has done some very impressive manuevering.

The senior Anthonys are at the mercy of Baez. In a way, so is Casey (at this point, anyway). On some level I wonder who, if anyone, has advised Baez on how to deal with Casey & her lying ways. I think he has managed to do something that she wants now & has wanted in the past - to be the center of the universe.

JMO

I also don't think LKB will actually be in Casey's presence, except @ the trial. Casey would likely to tell her to take a right turn off the cliff, and LKB, just from how she speaks--in charge, take control--is NOT going to put w/Casey's lies. So, if she goes thru Baez for everything, that will take care of two things: 1) Baez will feel important, that HE is in control) and 2) she will not actually have to deal w/Casey in any manner. IMO

I'm sorry, but any adult who would believe what Casey Anthony said in the face of overwhelming proof to the contrary should have "Stupid" tatooed to their forehead!

Yep. For them, there isn't a big downside to any of it. If the media keeps covering it & they keep getting invited to shows like NG or Greta - they can later on claim that they must get a change of venue.

The people who are the most enamored of those kinds of shows & these kinds of message boards are not going to be on the jury anyway. I don't live in Florida, but if I did - and if I received a jury summons for this case, I would be struck for cause.

The more people they can get rid of because they have heard about the case, the better for the defense. They will be left with people who just are not immersed in true crime stuff, who don't watch the shows like NG or Geraldo.

Great way to weed out the folks who are, in their heart of hearts, victims' advocates, IMO

I thought it was against bar rules for an attorney to knowing lie about evidence or circumstantial evidence or to even knowing allow their clients to lie about information.

IMO it would be hard to believe that the Anthony lawer thinks anyone other than Casey is responsible for Caylee's death. So how does he get away with planting tainted information?

I'm not sure exactly what you are meaning here. What "tainted" information is he planting? How is he lying about evidence, knowingly or not? He is offering an alternative point of view... that is not lying or planting tainted information! The trial has not gone to court yet... either side is allowed to say what they want to until they get in the courtroom. Also... he is speaking for the Anthonys, and this is what they believe... it's their right until it's proven otherwise.

There's actually people who feel the toys should not be donated? I can not believe that, imo the Anthony's are doing the right thing by donating them.

The toys weren't given to the Anthonys; after all, the Anthonys made it pretty clear they didn't want toys (or anything else) left in Caylee's memory by picking up anything left at their house and putting it in trash bags. Unless the items were left on the Anthony's property, they were not the Anthony's to give. People bought and left the items in remembrance of Caylee, not Toys for Tots!! IMO, of course.

Exactly. For neither Cindy or George to have never ever met this so called baby sitter is horrible. What if Casey was injured going to or coming from her imaginary job? Woudn't THEY have to go get Caylee? This is absurd in every sense of the word.

Parents especially do and say absurd things when they are wracked with guilt and feel responsible for a tragedy. If the Anthonys demanded Casey get a job then they are going to blame themselves for what followed. They had to suspect the job was a lie. It explains why George wanted to look in the trunk of Casey's car that day in June. He was looking for Caylee because he didn't believe the job existed and leaving a child in a hot car in June would be totally irresponsible but perhaps typical of Casey.

Why in the world would she have a seperate phone just for the nanny in the first place?

Or how is it a number as important as your nanny's wouldn't get carried over to a "new" phone but all your friends and family did? Did Casey magically memorize every number but Zannys?

Heck, if the babykiller would have whispered Caylee's location into baez's ear, henry could have been first on the scene.

Remember that Baez was wanting to take his client on a Caylee finding excursion early on, and they were denied. What do you be that this will come up somehow? Of course, they would have to come up/w some concocted story about how the nanny not only had a key to the house, and Casey's password, but that Casey had shown her (nanny) her (Casey's) favorite childhood hang out so the nanny would be able to take Caylee there. And, of course, Casey would remember this, and she and Baez would have found the body, and would have insisted it was the Nanny. IMO

She was missing until she was found. Alive or dead, if her whereabouts were not known, she was missing. She is not missing now.
There are families who have had missing loves ones for many years.

The main family member who should have said something about the child being missing and the person with legal custody of Caylee knew where she was the whole time. She was not a missing person, but a murdered person.

IMO A person that is truly missing is someone that no one in the family has any idea where they are and what has happened to them.

Thanks spiritwolf46.

I don't "hate" the A's, but I am not capable of feeling sympathy for them anymore. I cannot understand how people are so accepting of the A's behavior over the last six months.

My sympathy is for Caylee, I cry tears for her.

What is your definition of "accepting"? I don't admire their behavior, but I also don't feel the necessity to criticize what they do. I have not been in their exact position, but I have been in the position of having a family member murdered in a most horrifying fashion. On that level I can at least comprehend that they are blinded by their grief & their agony. In the situation for us, we were able to focus our outrage on people who would fit the definition of 'dregs of society'. I can't say it was a comfort, but I can say that it at least provided an outlet. I really cannot imagine how compounded the agony & torment would have been if we had to deal with the murderer(s) being someone we knew & loved. All I know is that 6 months later, 12 months later, 2 years later, every last one of us in the family could probably have said that we did & said & thought things that were far removed from anything we previously believed we would have been capable of.

So when I look at the senior Anthonys, I think to myself, "there but for the grace of God..."

Would you at least concede that the Anthonys tolerance of Casey's misdeeds far predated the event at hand? The Anthonys appear to have had a track record of never holding Casey accountable for her actions. And when push came to shove over Caylee's disappearance, they caved yet again.

Of course they know.

But the point of those shows is to get people to WATCH the shows. Whether they are watching because they agree with a host or guest says - or whether they are watching because they are incensed with what a host or guest says - the main thing is to keep them watching.

Henry Lee didn't say what he said because he doesn't know how criminal investigations work. He said what he did so he can keep himself, this case, whatever he is involved in, in FRONT of the media.

Baez doesn't have to believe the stuff he says in front of the cameras. Neither do the rest of them that make statements, whether they are profound or preposterous. They are there to pique the interest of the audience. You. Me. Everybody else. The day their ratings get to the point that they can't attract advertising revenue, there will be less of this stuff. I don't think it going to happen real soon, though, because as a society we seem to have a huge appetite for crime stories & a lot of tolerance for BS.

Well, of course they want people to watch... that is a given. However, I do believe that the TH's who appear on these news shows are there because they are asked to be, based on their expertise in these fields. The legal experts are there to help the viewers understand the fine points of the law and how to apply it to a particular case. But to be fair... there is not a show on t.v. that does not advertise to get viewers... after all, it is a business. If I am not mistaken, Fox News is consistently ahead of the other networks, and that may be because it is fair and balanced.... not just favoring one side or the other.

Good morning everyone.

I found this statement by Brad Conway interesting:

Conway said the Anthonys would love to visit their daughter in jail this week and share as a family, but because their conversations are recorded, they are choosing not to.

http://www.wesh.com/news/18318021/detail.html

"love to visit" and "share as a family" I may have to reconsider my opinion that Cynthia and George have left the dark side. What on earth would they be "sharing" with the person who killed Caylee? I am not understanding this statement at all. Anyone have an opinion?

You would think the jail could arrange a private, unrecorded visit of the A's with Casey. Of course, a member of the jail would have to be present, but I don't think that, considering the circumstances, it should be put out for all the world to see. It might get a little testy, if you know what I mean.

The only way there is a missing phone is if CASEY can prove the missing PHONE # and the missing PHONE BILL from the other line. If it was a simple simcard change it would all be on her phone bills

And she DID say it was a simple sim card change. She used the same sim for both phones, according to HER story.

I do not believe for one minute that C and G thought Casey had a job at Universal . I am also wondering if Casey received SSI and Medicaid for Casey. George and Cindy knew about the "club promotions" I believe but not any other jobs.

Zanny was a name Casey told to Mr Grund in 2006, so it is not just a name concocted after she killed Caylee. Now, whether or not George or Cindy had ever actually heard that name before Casey left home, I don't know, and it's hard to decifer if Cindy is lying about that or not. George has conflicting stories, as I am sure he said HE had not heard the name Zanny, but he also said the name Zanny evoked no response in Caylee. Which is it, George? Either way, I don't think CAYLEE knew anything about a nanny named Zanny or anything else. IMO, of course.

I don't know about FL, but some states require ABSOLUTE (sorry folks) proof of the father of the baby--no name given, no money received for assistance. She would not receive SS either, unless there was proof of a DEAD daddy. She wouldn't qualify under any other circumstance that I am aware of.

I think it's totally possible to still unconditionally love your child without condoning their behavior. The Anthonys' problem is that they don't love Casey enough to to hold her accountable for her unacceptable behaviors. Pretty poor parenting, IMO.

Ah, one of my favorite gripes. I think parents today think they are required to stand by their kid NO MATTER WHAT and to do less makes them a bad parent. We need a shake-up in our current society to make parents understand that they stand up for their kid when they are in the right - not in the wrong. Otherwise, what are they teaching their kids?

Have they been, up to the time Casey ran away from home, @ the A's house even once a week? None of them seemed to have stepped up to support "mom" yet---maybe Baez is going to have them come in the impact statements after she is convicted?

Did anybody else hear this - I was making a cake and missed some of it BUT on MSNBC probably 30-45 minutes ago there was a news story that said apparently Casey had given a list of names to her attorneys to use as character witnesses. One name was supposed to be her best friend, it was a man's name. When the attorney called him the man said he would not be a character witness that he believed Casey was quite capable of killing Caylee. DID ANYBODY ELSE HEAR THAT? If so, clarify details for me.

I think IIRC that would be Ryan who told LE back in the beginning that he was contacted by Baez and he had told Baez that nothing he would say would help Casey. Something to that effect.

I always took that as more of Cindy's preemptive damage control in case it started to look like Casey had accidentally locked Caylee in the car - maybe because it had happened before. She might have had a suspicion. I figured every time Cindy 'remembered' something it was probably misdirection so we would look there and not here. Every time she did it I thought it was a very clear picture of what she was really thinking.

Did anybody else hear this - I was making a cake and missed some of it BUT on MSNBC probably 30-45 minutes ago there was a news story that said apparently Casey had given a list of names to her attorneys to use as character witnesses. One name was supposed to be her best friend, it was a man's name. When the attorney called him the man said he would not be a character witness that he believed Casey was quite capable of killing Caylee. DID ANYBODY ELSE HEAR THAT? If so, clarify details for me.

I don't watch MSNBC but that sounds like Ryan Pasley - her childhood friend.

A lifelong friend, Ryan Pasley, told investigators it would take "the fear of God" to get Casey to tell the truth. She's not going to do anything for anybody, he told them, unless there's something in it for her.

When Casey Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, asked Pasley about being a character witness for her, Pasley said "I’ll tell you whatever you want to know. I just don't think it's going to help your case."

Ah, one of my favorite gripes. I think parents today think they are required to stand by their kid NO MATTER WHAT and to do less makes them a bad parent. We need a shake-up in our current society to make parents understand that they stand up for their kid when they are in the right - not in the wrong. Otherwise, what are they teaching their kids?

That's right. You can love them forever but if you don't teach them to acknowledge their mistakes, you will end up not liking them very much.

Okay, come down hard on me if you must, I honestly want to know, but if I were the grand parent in this situation, there is no way on Earth I could or would ever look at the daughter again except in the court room. I thought before I posted this and NO, I would not visit her, support her, or want any contact with her at all ever again. If it turns out to be a mental illness, that might be a different story. Maybe I am more cold-hearted than I thought, but in this situation, she would be out of my life.
Would you think I would be wrong to feel that way? :shrug:


No, you are not wrong because I feel the same way. There is no way I could even look at her again. Maybe we are both cold hearted but we feel the way we feel and that is our right. She still isn't telling the truth.

If Casey had been my daughter she would be bald headed because I would have pulled her hair out of her head until she told me where my granddaughter was and what happened to her. I wouldn't have tip toed around her and kissed her butt the way some did and still do. Unless she talked she wouldn't have been living in my home. Maybe her attorney would have moved her in with him and his wife!

I think George and Cindy's attorney made that statement for them because they want everyone to know that they would really like to spend time with precious but can't because of the press. She is still lying George and Cindy!

I did not hear the program you are referring to, but a long time ago, it was reported that a lifetime friend, Ryan Pasley? was called by the defense to see if he would be a character witness. He supposedly said, I will, but I don't think you will like what I say. Maybe that is who they were referring to. Could be a lot of people though that would refuse. JMO

So do I. I think past incidents of irresponsibility are what the Anthonys are holding back: Casey had either left Caylee home alone or in the car alone.

You would think the jail could arrange a private, unrecorded visit of the A's with Casey. Of course, a member of the jail would have to be present, but I don't think that, considering the circumstances, it should be put out for all the world to see. It might get a little testy, if you know what I mean.



Why would the jail make special arrangements for the Anthony's?

She's just an other inmate sitting in jail, waiting for her day in court.

There are reasons for the jail to set up visiting time with family members the way they do.

Also if they make exceptions for the Anthony's, they have to make exceptions for every other inmate.

The best way to get Casey to talk is to simply sit and listen. She feels compelled to fill quiet space. She's uncomfortable in silence. So sit back and she'll fill the void. Mostly lies but, eventually, she'll start slipping up.

Indeed. There obviously have been other inmates who have had loved ones die whilst they were incarcerated (and probably not a son/daughter they murdered.) If they have to follow jail protocols, so should the Anthony's. Plain and simple. IMO. One should not get a pass just because one kills one's own child. That might make her "special" but not in a positive sort of way.

I want for Casey to be convicted and for the A's go away back to their obscure lives. They don't want Casey to be convicted and fame and fortune will come their way if she is not. It would be a travesty IMHO if the latter happened. I worry that sympathy for the A's will be abused to bring about that travesty. I truly believe they have behaved horribly and I see nothing to admire in them.

That's my stand. I am not trying to be mean or cruel.

Yes, the Lawyer said they are in the clear and no charges are pending, they have suffered enough for anything, life is so full of what ifs and wishing for do overs, it is sad how these grandparents have been treated by some.

jmo

When you forsake your dead grandchild for her murderer, you reap what you sow. There is nothing that they've suffered that makes up for that. Poor Caylee never had a chance in that warped, controlling, lying, stealing, credit-grabbing family. God rest her soul.

Can you even imagine not knowing the nanny's name, address or phone number? Nope, it does not make any sense at all. I just wonder really where did they really think Casey was everyday with Caylee. They had to know imo that she did not work. Where did they think she took Caylee everyday? She had no income tax forms from work because she did not work now that is a big giveaway right there.

My grandson was babysat by my son-in-laws aunt, who runs a day care. When he was around 2 1/2 and I would visit, I would ask him if he had a nice time at "nanna's" and he would say yes and tell he what he did for the day...... went outside, what he ate, etc.

And I made SURE that I met the aunt. Although I HAD met her many times before. But sometimes I went with my daughter to pick him up. I just wanted to see how she inter-acted with him. So I KNEW he was being loved and well taken care of.

and that was FAMILY

Grandmother with NO phone number, address or anything for the nanny. Unbelievable barf

before I stepped away from it, I was in child care for about 15 years.
I had several children from full time as infants up to part time when they started school. Children as young as one made projects, the older they got the more we created. How did Caylee never bring home any art work or photos, or Mothers/Grandparents/birthday gifts? We built, painted, glittered, glued, baked, cooked, found, etc...
why didn't the Anthonys question the fact that there were there no pieces of childhood artwork from the nanny-times?

I don't know. Did OJ set up a line? Well, he wouldn't have been there to answer, being as how he was in FL looking for the real killer on the golf courses there. The Peterson's had a tip line, but I think theirs was only before their son was incarcerated. I guess they still have one, of a sorts, thru their Scott is innocent site, or whatever theirs is called. Michael Peterson? Mr Jensen? Ms McGuire? all those others? I don't recall, but I didn't follow the cases really closely.

Well thanks! That's so nice of you. I do want justice for Caylee the same as you. And I want to live in a country where a parent can't get away with what Casey has done. And the fact that her parents who won't even take a lie detector test (at least not yet) about the circumstances of their grandchild's murder could emerge from this as some kind heroes and actually benefit in sense of becoming public advocates just adds the offense that Casey has done to her daughter.

5:22 PM ET - Jessie Grund, the ex-fiancé of tot mom Casey Anthony, is speaking out tonight. Grund will be on Nancy Grace live tonight, where he will talk about his reaction to the news that the remains found were that of little Caylee Marie. In an interview this morning, Grund also talked about how Casey Anthony changed as Caylee got older, and the child that used to be the focus of Casey Anthony's life had later on become more of a responsibility. Grund had initially thought he was the father of Caylee, and was one of the first people to hold the child right after she was born, but a paternity test later proved that Grund was not the father of the toddler. At one point Grund was engaged to Casey Anthony, but the engagement was later broken off in the beginning of 2006. (From Matthew Zarrell, Nancy Grace Associate Producer

Cindy claimed in her fbi interview that Casey KNEW who Caylee's father was (she even named him) she claimed he died in a car wreck and Caylee had a half-sibling. she then claimed that Casey kept in contact with his WIDOW....I do not have a link but it is in the last fbi interview/video dump.

Did she have a first and last name for this phantom father? IIRC, Cindy knew nothing about him until Casey handed them the obit from a newspaper. If Caylee's bio dad was dead she'd probably have been eligible for survivor's SSI. If I were supporting my grandchild financially you can bet I'd have checked into who he was. He supposedly didn't die until Caylee was a year old; so the family had a year to get in touch with the guy and get support ordered.
