Tues. Feb 10, Part 1

[Kathlb]

Looks like I am the early bird again this morning. Good morning everyone!
Well, it should be an interesting day. This case just gets more involved and further out in space as the days go by. :-) I'm sure there will be a lot watching the memorial this morning and some not.
Whatever your feelings are on the subject, I hope that there isn't trouble. I'm sure that LE wishes that Cindy had just done like most families and had a quiet funeral for themselves and a few friends and family and let the public memorialize Caylee in however way they saw fit individually. But here we go again. .....

We love you Caylee! :rose:

Good Morning,

I'm away on business and trying to catch up. Did I read correctly? Casey made a statement that Caylee was already cremated? Do we know when that happened? Remember I had that gut feeling last week that she was already laid to rest. I couldn't believe it when I read it this morning. Also the statement sounds accusatory to me. It's as if she's blaming her parents for going against her wishes. Not surprising with sociopaths. Again, imo, we see a power struggle between Cindy & Casey. Unbelievable!

I won't be around with you all to watch the memorial. My heartfelt prayers going out to Caylee and all those who truly loved her even if they can't attend the memorial.

Good morning Kath :seeya:

Been up for a while catching up on yesterday's news.
Wow oh Wow. Ms Casey finally decided to make a statement. Not happy about the memorial. Well all I can say is.....Too Bad.

Haven't decided yet whether I will watch or not but I do hope Caylee's memorial goes well without any disruptions.

Morning...
Yes, she did say they had already cremated her. The A's are saying they didn't and LP is saying they did two weeks ago. So once again, who the devil knows. I am assuming they did.

I will be watching because I want to see what happens, not because I am participating in Cindy's show. I'll be very interested also in how many show up and who all goes to the place where the body was found and has a prayer session with LP and Richard Grund instead of the Anthony's.

:rose:yes, casey said that she knew that Caylee had already been cremated. You were right. I didn't get to watch NG last night. Was this a topic? It sure seems like it would have been a "bombshell".

So how is Casey getting her info? I guess that's pretty much a rhetorical question.

Good morning to all, and thanks for the links.

I am wondering if Jose Baez is actually 'happy' about this public service and all of the media involved? When it comes time for trial, and especially any COV, he will probably cite this as a 'reason' as to why his client can not get a 'fair trial'.

I just have some sort of 'dread' in my stomach right now...I hope this all goes off without a hitch. But then again...I haven't seen much that the Anthony family has touched that didn't ignite something.
I hope I'm wrong...

Just my opinion of course..

[Cait48]

I am not a KC fan but NG kept repeating over and over last night how the 'tot mom just keeps sitting in her jail cell ordering chocolates, bottled water, etc.' NG's usual rant. Then NG states over and over that KC did not 'even bother to have input into this memorial'.

KC DID have input and wishes.

She SAID she wanted the child in a casket, not cremated. She SAID she wanted a headstone placed at the burial sight. She SAID she did not wish to have a massive public memorial. She SAID she wanted a private family service. She SAID she did not want this televised. If that isn't 'input', I don't know what is.

I have been thinking about this all night.

Cindy defied KC's wishes. This is Cindy's final grandstanding show. Cindy is the boss in that family and she wears the pants. Cindy even stated that only the purest of hearts will be allowed in...who is she to judge who is 'pure' or not. I smell self-rightgeousness.

Cindy also stated that she wanted respect shown to 'their' child. Caylee was not Cindy or George's child!
She was their grandchild. She was KC's child.

Cindy, over the year's purposely started having Caylee call her Mama and call George Papa. And Caylee's greatgrandfather is PopPop. Why wasn't Caylee taught to call Cindy, Nana, Grandma or Gram?

Cindy's overattachment, manipulation and suffocation comes through loud and clear.

It also disturbs me greatly that Padilla is having his own prayer vigil right in town where little Caylee's body was found! Tacky. He has to do that today?

[SavannahStar]

Thanks for the links guys!

I feel the same way, B. I feel sick to my stomach, and I just can't wait until this day is over.

Please let some type of quiet memory of Caylee occur during the circus that's probably going to happen today. I know I'll certainly have my own thoughts of that sweet child and her completely unfair end.

I agree with most of your post, some parts I do not.

As to Padilla....IMO, that is more than tacky. It's inexcusable. Doesn't surprise me about Padilla, though. It does surprise me about Richard Grund.

I can see maybe they are "hurt" being on the "disinvited" list. So they decide to hurt back? That's like little children saying nany nany boo-boo, you didn't invite me to your party so I'll have my own. Same day, same time.

Oh Leonard wants to be in the middle of his own little publicity bubble, that's for sure.

If this were being done (Padilla and Grund) for the "purest" of intentions...for CAYLEE...it could have been done another day, another time. No, this isn't for CAYLEE, it's all about a slap in the face to Cindy.

IMO.

[Januarybaby]

I cant believe it. People started arriving at the church at 4:00 a.m. to guarantee a seat? This blows my mind.

This is ridiculous. Its not an event like waiting for tickets to go on sale for a football game or a concert. This memorial should have been private being televised for the public.

I'm sorry but I feel even more sorry for Caylee that it has boiled down to this. JMO

[callmetree]

i'm just hoping today will be peaceful. this three ring circus needs to take it's tent down. i never thought when this case first started that is could ever get this crazy. was i ever wrong...:huh:

:rose: Good morning n/t and to ALL. I also had the feeling Caylee had either been cremated or buried last week. I can not remember what was said that actually gave me that idea but it stuck with me. Also I heard Lenny say on NG that he believed Caylee had already been cremated. I know so many do not like or believe him but much of what he says is true and does make sense. IMO KC knew of all the attention Caylee's memorial was receiving and it set her off to no end. If we go back to the first of jailhouse tapes she makes it very clear that all anyone cares about is Caylee. She says it outright. I have lived many years now and followed many heartbreaking cases but this one has and is over the top. I wish ALL a good day as I know we are saddened and the memorial will be even more so. jmo

[Postergeist]

:rose:

while Caylee has had numerous memorials put out for her by strangers since the public first heard of her missing and when her remains were found on Dec. 11th- this will be the first one held in a house of worship by her grandparents since her remains were identified that the public will be allowed to attend.

I hope that everyone behaves with proper conduct in honor of a sweet child.

While she still hasn't been laid to rest yet that we know of- may the memorial truly be all about her today.

Not sure if Caylee's great grandparents will be in attendance, but my thoughts go out to all who knew her.

God bless you sweet baby girl

*snip*

While I want Casey punished to the full extent of the law and hope that comes to pass quickly, I have to agree with you on this. The first thing that hit me when I heard the presser by Baez was that Cindy did this on purpose and to show final control. I thought how I would feel if it were my son and my mother did that. I would be livid and so frustrated that it had been taken away from me. I know she killed Caylee and doesn't deserve any rights, however something basic hit me on this about Cindy doing this to her. It's the first time I've felt any compassion for Casey and something this basic just seems to me to have been her call no matter the circumstances. Yet, I am livid she killed this baby, so I'm really torn in two on this subject.

I see this whole thing almost opposite to you.

I think it's great that for the first time in Casey's bratty life her parents FINALLY say no to her.

Have you read R Grunds myspace? It was posted here last night and everyone who read it felt what a class act he is.

Back to the memorial......and how was Casey planning to pay for the funeral, casket plot etc etc?

Did you notice in her statement through Biaz there was not one thankyou to anyone who searched or comes to remember her daughter or anyone who has laboured over this situation?
No thankyou's in Cindy;s eulogy either, 5 paragraphs on Caylee and 5 about $$$$.

I think the last thing this Memorial needs is any mention of Casey or any pictures of her with Caylee. It could spark alot of anger.
I don't think alot of people want to extend condolances to the Anthony's either, they are there for Caylee.

The whole gang should have left this public, let the church take care of it and have there own funeral/memorial privately and it should have beem held before the public memorial.

Has anyone ever heard of a eulogy given before the service takes place? I haven't.

JMO but I do respect yours!

[Myka]

good morning everyone

If I am home, I will watch it, if not, I'll catch parts of it at work. Plus I'm sure we'll see all the "highlights" on HLN or You Tube.

There has been enough of that throughout this case. As for KC being upset...oh well. She is at exactly where she should be and not strutting at the memorial. IMO..Cindy and George had every right to do exactly what they wanted to do either about the burial for Caylee and the memorial. They loved and cared about this baby more than anyone else. Yes..they have defended their daughter and have made excuses and that is probably what most of parents would do. Knowing KC murdered Caylee and at same time not being able to except the facts. I pray they will one day be able to heal but its gona be hard. Caylee is dead and KC is going to prision for the rest of her life. Hard to look toward the future for the two of them IMO.

The Memorial - My Statement
Current mood: contemplative



I've been asked many times today if I or my family will be attending the "memorial" tomorrow at First Baptist Church of Orlando.

Recently it was reported on various news outlets that my name and my son Jesse's name appeared on the "not welcome" list. I reached out to have it confirmed and has been confirmed. So, I do not want to feed into the madness of this "event" by showing up and being led away by security and I do not want to allow anyone who might be behind this banishment to have any joy in that either. Because I cherish Caylee, her life and her memory, and always will, I have chosen to meet with friends at the site on Suburban Drive. This IS NOT, as has been reported, an alternate memorial. If others happen to show up we will remember Caylee together. If I can offer any comfort or prayerful guidance I will be glad to so.

I have always felt it was the family's right to have their funeral before anyone else did anything. To my dismay and surprise a Public Memorial is being staged before a private family funeral. In most high profile situations a private family funeral is given precedence and then the public is allowed their time to mourn. With the threat of protesters, the smothering blanket of security and the presence of certain fringe groups who claim to be Christians but act with hate and vile accusations against others staging a protest outside I fear that this will not be about Caylee at all but about an event about Caylee.

I must also state that I am dismayed by the decision of the leadership of the First Baptist Church of Orlando to host any event where the goal is to heal and restore a community but will also bar people from that community who want to attend under the threat of being removed by security. I cannot find a scriptural verification of such a stance. In fact, what I found was in the Parable of the Lost Sheep in Luke Chapter 15 where the Lord said He would risk leaving the 99 to find that 1 sheep that was lost. His heart has always been for that one person who needed Him. I wonder how He feels to know that someone who might need His comfort tomorrow is not welcome in a place where He is supposed to reside. Instead the area I found that seems to match the spirit of this rule is in John 18:14 where Caiaphas counseled that the needs of the many outweighed the needs of the one. If this memorial was truly about Caylee it would be built around Caylee and a child's love. For the love of Caylee all feuds, disagreements and hard feelings should have been set aside for her. Apparently that is not the case, and for that I sincerely disheartened.

The fact is, every day of our life is a memorial for Caylee. Not a day goes by that we don't cherish her memory and smile and have love for her fill our hearts. No one day or one event would ever be enough to cover that. We know that she is in Heaven and although some would like to make her into an angel and give her a job we prefer to follow scriptural teaching and not New Age teachings or paganistic influence and realize that she is safe in her Father's arms, running and playing and being a child. She doesn't need a job. He's got all that covered for her. If His eyes are on the sparrow I know He can manage watching over the little children too!

So, what ever you do tomorrow, make sure you do it for the right reasons. Do not be weighed down by such impossible requirements of having a pure heart and honorable intentions before you remember Caylee. The truth is our intentions are purely selfish because we miss her and if love is in our heart that should be good enough. A requirement of a pure heart and honorable intentions would mean that any sanctuary would be empty and the parking lots vacant. The Lord's heart is pure and His intentions for Caylee are more then honorable. His Grace is sufficient for all of us.

God bless you and thank you for letting me share this time with you.
Richard Grund





Thank you Richard for wise and loving words.
It is obvious who loved Caylee.

In my opinion this memorial isnt based around Caylee, its for Casey once again. Isnt it funny how she has NEVER made a statement before and now she does AFTER her parents go against her wishes that they NEVER did before?

I wouldnt doubt if this is all a set up to make Casey seem human. Poor Casey had wishes for Caylee and mom and dad went against them to be mean. Cindy can now be considered the bad guy while Casey sits back and gets the sympathy. One poster already posted Casey did have wishes, Cindy went against them. Sorry Baez, it isnt working for me once again.

We all know too that they have played games like this before to humanize Casey and they never work so why not give this a shot?

It also re-defiines and highlights the constant tug of war and control between Cindy and Casey that has gone on forever to the exclusion of everyone else and their needs. It's gone right down to the means of laying little Caylee to rest and to me that tells it all about this family.

I really dont think there is a tug of war going on. Thats what I tried to say in my post. I believe this is all set up to make Casey look better and Cindy is being the bad guy for it. They ahve to find a way to humanize Casey before her trial.

They have let Casey lead the show and bent over backwards to defend her, with George even telling her shes the boss. Now all of a sudden, they go against her wishes? That doesnt make sense. Its a set up. They arent playing tug of war with Casey, they are setting it up for sympathy.

I think today's Memorial is just another act in the 3 ring circus. We have been hearing for over a week about the "uninvited" list, security measures, metal detectors and no cell phones, video cameras, cameras, backpacks, bags or purses.

In all my years I have never seen anything like this. IMO, it is nothing more than another Cindy performance for the media.

I cant believe it. People started arriving at the church at 4:00 a.m. to guarantee a seat? This blows my mind.

This is ridiculous. Its not an event like waiting for tickets to go on sale for a football game or a concert. This memorial should have been private being televised for the public.

I'm sorry but I feel even more sorry for Caylee that it has boiled down to this. JMO

IMO This is just another one of Cindy's play for media attention and $$$$ I could be wrong but it is how I feel.... Caylee has been used even in her death and it makes me sick...I agree ths should be about the family only, although most of us have deep feelings for a precious little girl we have never met.... this is a private matter amo

Yep should have been private with televised for the public.

Now dont get me wrong, I know people all over the world have fallen in love with Caylee, ( I have for sure) but there are dishonest people out there too and it makes me wonder if there are people going to this memorial out of pure morbid curiousity or just to say they were there.

"There has been [no] request from inmate Casey Anthony to have TV access to view this morning's memorial," the release shows. "Policy would permit us to accommodate a request by a Protective Custody (PC) Level-1 inmate to view television."

Moore said the television will not be on in the housing area where Anthony is located.

I am especially sickened and outraged by Cindy wanting only the "pure of heart" to attend. GIVE ME A BREAK! Will she be at the door with her hammer and a pure-o-meter? She just loves to provoke, doesn't she? She invites conflict every time she opens her mouth!
And as for LP- he should just pack up his toothpicks and cowboy hat and go back to what ever rock he crawled out from under.
This Memorial should not even be happening! An on-line guest book for condolences- or even a book in a public place that folks could sign would seem sufficient to me. Especially with the controversy extending to the grandparents as well as Casey. All I can say is Poor, poor little Caylee:
May she rest in peace and have a good ol' time in heaven.May she be surrounded by LOVE, peace & unlimited JOY, like a little girl should.And may she never be surrounded by conflict again.amen.

Thank you so much for posting Rev. Grund's statement. I found comfort in many of his words, but this section really spoke to me:

So, what ever you do tomorrow, make sure you do it for the right reasons. Do not be weighed down by such impossible requirements of having a pure heart and honorable intentions before you remember Caylee. The truth is our intentions are purely selfish because we miss her and if love is in our heart that should be good enough. A requirement of a pure heart and honorable intentions would mean that any sanctuary would be empty and the parking lots vacant. The Lord's heart is pure and His intentions for Caylee are more then honorable. His Grace is sufficient for all of us.

God bless everyone who truly loved Caylee Marie Anthony.

[msgatorslayer]

G'morning everyone.

I just seen a woman dressed in black looking at the make shift memorial for Caylee where here remains were found. My newstation has someone camped out there.

Mr. G says he hopes more people show up there instead of the church.

RIP Caylee

It really saddens me that Cindy is excluding those who loved Caylee in life and those who were and are fighting so hard for her in death. Yet she will allow that church to be filled with strangers.

[ellegna]

While I want Casey punished to the full extent of the law and hope that comes to pass quickly, I have to agree with you on this. The first thing that hit me when I heard the presser by Baez was that Cindy did this on purpose and to show final control. I thought how I would feel if it were my son and my mother did that. I would be livid and so frustrated that it had been taken away from me. I know she killed Caylee and doesn't deserve any rights, however something basic hit me on this about Cindy doing this to her. It's the first time I've felt any compassion for Casey and something this basic just seems to me to have been her call no matter the circumstances. Yet, I am livid she killed this baby, so I'm really torn in two on this subject.

My bold
That was my first thought as well but after some thinking I'm wondering if Cindy defied Casey because she has finally come to terms Casey is responsible for Caylee's death?

Good morning everyone. Thank you for posting that A. I see a very moving service ahead of us. Especially this song, To Where You Are........

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uIQp9Dqcrw

Headline News just showed the church and there is a line out the door already. I pray everything goes smoothly.


morning Scamp! thinking of songs- this song has made me think of Caylee lately-

Heaven- by Hayley Westenra

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iA9SODrrQwU

she has an amazing angelic voice (I almost weep when I hear her sing "Across the Universe of Time")

[Texas48]

I think today's Memorial is just another act in the 3 ring circus. We have been hearing for over a week about the "uninvited" list, security measures, metal detectors and no cell phones, video cameras, cameras, backpacks, bags or purses.

In all my years I have never seen anything like this. IMO, it is nothing more than another Cindy performance for the media.

jmoThe entire "event" is just down right SAD. In reference to the Uninvited perople. How horrible. I know Lenny chews on a toothpick but I hardly think he would go inside the church w/it in his mouth and I would never believe he would cause a disturbance at the memorial. He cared about Caylee. Then there is Rev. Grund and Jesse. They loved and cared about Caylee. What type of disturbance does Cindy believe they would cause? Then there is Marc Klass. What is Cindy thinking he would do to ruin the service? I am glad there will be a PUBLIC MEMORIAL for ALL people that have given their hearts to Caylee but the word PUBLIC is just that...PUBLIC. I am actually shocked the Pastor of this church allowed Cindy to uninvite people that SHOULD be at the Memorial. jmo

[newsjunkie]

I hope it isn't just the Anthony's eulogizing Cayley.
I am sure others have some words .
Do you think that Cindy will allow others to give some thoughts?

[Regina.Lampert]

No More Night. :(

[Texas48]

Yep should have been private with televised for the public.

Now dont get me wrong, I know people all over the world have fallen in love with Caylee, ( I have for sure) but there are dishonest people out there too and it makes me wonder if there are people going to this memorial out of pure morbid curiousity or just to say they were there.Well said January.

[cassidy]

I hope it isn't just the Anthony's eulogizing Cayley.

Who? It seems she has excluded the majority of those who actually knew Caylee and loved her.

Hi ya desmom- well look at it this way- would be much harder to carry in a checkbook if women aren't allowed to carry in their purses, so maybe Kidfinder won't be getting many donations today.

[FrankieBones1]

Pardon me if this has been posted already today but Headline News (CNN) will carry the service live this morning starting at 10am. They showed some live footage earlier of the people lining up outside the church. I could swear I saw a school age child there, too.

Someone from the community saying how Caylee touched the community and brought them together? I don't know, just seems like out of 5000 people more than just the Anthony's would want to say something.
This whole thing is too wierd :(

Hi Postie. That is a wonderful song. I have been going thru and listening to some of the songs on the program that i am not familar with and I must say, cynthia picked out some wonderful ones.

The "No more Night, no more tears" that I just posted is very sad but very comforting. This service is going to rip out everyone's heart, I hope they have some very strong men on both sides of george I honestly don't know how he is going to get thru this.

Yet, I am livid she killed this baby, so I'm really torn in two on this subject.

It was Casey's responsibility. She signed her rights away to her parents. Casey sees Baez almost daily so she should have been advised that she no longer has any say once she signs her rights over to her parents. Shame on her lawyers if they did not advise her.

I do hope this is truly for Caylee. The program seems to appear like it will be a beautiful service.

[Daffodil]

I see this whole thing almost opposite to you.

I think it's great that for the first time in Casey's bratty life her parents FINALLY say no to her.

Have you read R Grunds myspace? It was posted here last night and everyone who read it felt what a class act he is.

Back to the memorial......and how was Casey planning to pay for the funeral, casket plot etc etc?

Did you notice in her statement through Biaz there was not one thankyou to anyone who searched or comes to remember her daughter or anyone who has laboured over this situation?
No thankyou's in Cindy;s eulogy either, 5 paragraphs on Caylee and 5 about $$$$.

I think the last thing this Memorial needs is any mention of Casey or any pictures of her with Caylee. It could spark alot of anger.
I don't think alot of people want to extend condolances to the Anthony's either, they are there for Caylee.

The whole gang should have left this public, let the church take care of it and have there own funeral/memorial privately and it should have beem held before the public memorial.

Has anyone ever heard of a eulogy given before the service takes place? I haven't.

JMO but I do respect yours!


Good morning newsjunkie. I didn't see a copy of the entire eulogy. Do you have a link?

[FrankieBones1]

No More Night. :(

I agree Cassidy, cynthia is depriving herself and george from the love and wisdom of Rev. Grund, who could help them thru this, imo.

[Texas48]

My bold
That was my first thought as well but after some thinking I'm wondering if Cindy defied Casey because she has finally come to terms Casey is responsible for Caylee's death? I can not feel anything for KC..no compassion. Yes Caylee WAS her daughter and YES she murdered HER baby. Her statement via JB had no impact on me. I have no compassion as far as KC is concerned. JB can standup there and say she thinks about Caylee every minute of every day. I will never believe she has any remorse...only that she got caught and no one believed the story about the Nanny.jmo

Very nice statement from Mr. Grund..

For those that cannot access live feed, http://www.wesh.com/breakingnews/index.html is doing a blog update.

[Daffodil]

I really dont think there is a tug of war going on. Thats what I tried to say in my post. I believe this is all set up to make Casey look better and Cindy is being the bad guy for it. They ahve to find a way to humanize Casey before her trial.

They have let Casey lead the show and bent over backwards to defend her, with George even telling her shes the boss. Now all of a sudden, they go against her wishes? That doesnt make sense. Its a set up. They arent playing tug of war with Casey, they are setting it up for sympathy.

I trust the Anthonys as far as I can throw them and Im only 4 foot 10.


I also believe that Casey's statement is also part of the plan with the A's full agreement on it.

[Postergeist]

Hi Postie. That is a wonderful song. I have been going thru and listening to some of the songs on the program that i am not familar with and I must say, cynthia picked out some wonderful ones.

Yes, so many times music is comforting- it does soothe the soul.

Not that Cindy would listen to my suggestions, lol- but I've always been fond of "Precious Memories" for funeral/visitation/memorial/celebrations of life services as well.

Hopefully Lee will be in attendance, and maybe some family members of the Anthonys that haven't been rebuked- however, Cindy only mentioned the great greatparents of Caylee in her eulogy.

I would think the Anthony's attorney and their PI's/security guards will be in attendance so they could also be a shoulder for George. Maybe their former co-workers will attend.

I wonder if she plans to release any doves later?

[SavannahStar]

G'morning everyone.

I just seen a woman dressed in black looking at the make shift memorial for Caylee where here remains were found. My newstation has someone camped out there.

Mr. G says he hopes more people show up there instead of the church.

RIP Caylee

Richard Grund said that? :ohmy: Wow. Just wow. :sad:

[GumShoeJoe]

I'm not involved in this story on any personal level and my reaction to any of these decisions about public vs private only reflects my personal preference, however:

Who turns away ANY and ALL prayers offered? Prayers are good. Lots of prayers are a good thing. I would think all prayers at this service would be welcome. Are the Grunds deemed security risks?

I imagine at many funeral homes and services across the country mourners appear all the time who are not the personal favorites of any given family member(s) but prayers are offered, accepted, and things move on. Not the time for personal differences.

Sad day on many levels, I hope it goes well and peacefully and serves the memory of a young child, now gone.

I won't be watching.

[Beach~Tenant]

I Dont know what to make of Casey's comment to the public!!! Another ploy or tactic to help in their next stategy plan? What differrence does it make HOW SHE feels? Who cares? Why bother? I am just waiting to see how they will roll with this! There has to be a reason besides trying to get to Cindy and humiliating her openly! the ONLY thing positive I see in her cold statement is it will IGNITE her fellow neigbors she is surrounded by all over again!! Can ya'll just hear the "shout outs" she must be recieving while walking to and from her cell? lol...ahhh, the vision!!!!

Hiya Ducky, what a sad day this will be. Many of these songs mention the sky, stars and heavens. I keep remembering how george said he used to take Caylee outside at night and look up at the moon and stars with her.

I hope everyone is able to release their tears today, unashamed and just cry for that little angel.

[Cait48]

You make good points about the fact that KC's parents, perhaps are finally stepping up to the plate and saying 'NO' to KC. I hadn't thought of it that way.

I don't want this to be a bash Cindy day...but my 'armchair shrink personality' keeps looking at all the co-dependent behaviour in this family.

Good point, Des.

IMO, at least Casey is being honest. SHe doesn't want the public memorial. Course she doesn't. Like her Mom, were not on the top of her 'likes' list. The public started pointing the finger at her. THe news media had 'field days' with her visits, etc all.

Her Mom thinks were 'maggots' but is having a memorial for us anyway. :sneaky:

stepping up? the child is DECEASED.

it was a sad day when this defendant admitted she had not reported her child missing and that she had not seen her in 31 days.

it was a sad day when LE's suspicions were confirmed: her remains were found and manner of death was ruled a homicide.

this is not a sad day: its just another day in the life of two psychopaths competing for attention.

The first thing that hit me when I heard the presser by Baez was that Cindy did this on purpose and to show final control. I thought how I would feel if it were my son and my mother did that. I would be livid and so frustrated that it had been taken away from me. I know she killed Caylee and doesn't deserve any rights, however something basic hit me on this about Cindy doing this to her. It's the first time I've felt any compassion for Casey and something this basic just seems to me to have been her call no matter the circumstances. Yet, I am livid she killed this baby, so I'm really torn in two on this subject.

I completely agree. I almost felt like Casey was sorry in a way for what had happened and was trying to prevent the circus that is inevitable today. I border on hatred for the woman, but I honestly think she was (for once) trying to do the right thing. Why NG and all attacked he is beyond me.

Please don't get my wrong, I think Casey is guilty, vile, add an adjective here... but I think this spectacle we are about to witness should not be happening.

I read his statement.

I don't think it's "classy" however to hold an "alternate" memorial for Caylee on the same day and time as the family's memorial for her.

imo, the parking lots still look pretty barren considering the church doors will be open in about 30 minutes.

http://www.wftv.com/video/18679741/index.html

[desmom]

Not sticking up for Cindy, but how do we know Casey, the pathological liar, is telling the truth?

We don't. I think Cindy's behavior over the last 7 months shows the apple does not fall far from the tree. Lies seems to be a part of this family's day to day life.

Since Casey has not asked to view the memorial this morning, I wonder if this statement was her idea or JB's. I vote JB. The statement was not from a mother mourning the lost of her daughter, but about how her parents ignored her wishes.

jmo

[Stella Rose]

In my opinion this memorial isnt based around Caylee, its for Casey once again. Isnt it funny how she has NEVER made a statement before and now she does AFTER her parents go against her wishes that they NEVER did before?

I wouldnt doubt if this is all a set up to make Casey seem human. Poor Casey had wishes for Caylee and mom and dad went against them to be mean. Cindy can now be considered the bad guy while Casey sits back and gets the sympathy. One poster already posted Casey did have wishes, Cindy went against them. Sorry Baez, it isnt working for me once again.

We all know too that they have played games like this before to humanize Casey and they never work so why not give this a shot?

You may be 100% correct on this. I've been snookered by this family before. Excellent point January Baby.

You didn't read his statement or you wouldn't repeat the alternate memorial theory. They are NOT doing that, they are just gathering to be together......the castaways if you wish.

[trich]

Good morning to all, and thanks for the links.

I am wondering if Jose Baez is actually 'happy' about this public service and all of the media involved? When it comes time for trial, and especially any COV, he will probably cite this as a 'reason' as to why his client can not get a 'fair trial'.

I just have some sort of 'dread' in my stomach right now...I hope this all goes off without a hitch. But then again...I haven't seen much that the Anthony family has touched that didn't ignite something.
I hope I'm wrong...

Just my opinion of course..



I agree!
I was also thinking ...if the Anthonys really have had Caylee cremated and it was not actual public knowledge why couldn''t they have had the memorial privately?
The answer to me is obvious....they wanted to "ignite" something.
Whether it be good or bad..hopefully nothing bad happens.
I will not be watching ...
I dissaprove of the whole public thing but then it is not for me to say and why should Casey have anything to say or do about it......she murdered her own daughter (yes I am convinced in my heart) so IMO she should not have any right to have any input as to what happens at this point.

[NYGalPal]

We don't. I think Cindy's behavior over the last 7 months shows the apple does not fall far from the tree. Lies seems to be a part of this family's day to day life.

Cindy and Casey are exactly alike: liars

I think this was JBs lame idea. The timing of it is suspect to me. If Casey were grieving for Caylee and didn't want this show, it would have been mention a lot sooner.

[SavannahStar]

They are doing that, in my opinion. I think it's despicable. One-upmanship, that's all it is.

And yes, I did read his statement.

IMO, Cindy won't share the spotlight with anyone.

I am concerned about George..I hope he has lots of support today...

I do also kitty.

[newsjunkie]

They are doing that, in my opinion. I think it's despicable. One-upmanship, that's all it is.

And yes, I did read his statement.


IF you read his statement you are the ONLY one talkig him down.

You know SS I leave here 4 out of 7 days because of the constant bickering and sniping and contradicting that goes on here and you are one of the two that are usually involved in this.

You are NOT going to draw me into your Carp today or any other day ........CLICK!!!!!

I completely agree. I almost felt like Casey was sorry in a way for what had happened and was trying to prevent the circus that is inevitable today. I border on hatred for the woman, but I honestly think she was (for once) trying to do the right thing. Why NG and all attacked he is beyond me.

Please don't get my wrong, I think Casey is guilty, vile, add an adjective here... but I think this spectacle we are about to witness should not be happening.

respectfully jumping in here: your opinion is Casey is 'almost' feel she is sorry? for what?

and so it begins, the trickling in of semi-compassion for the accused murderer who was pole dancing, getting a tattoo, committing fraud, eating out, renting videos a couple of hours later after 'discovering her nanny's # is disconnected' and texting joyfully, just to name a few activities.....knowing her child is 'abducted'...

.......simply because no one can stand her mother?

gulp.

Good morning everyone! What a sad, sad day today. What is the weather like in Orlando - I might look that up. It is pretty gloomy where I am at. :(

I am glad Lenny is having an alternate set-up. Maybe protesters who were going to go to Caylee's event will go to where Lennys is meeting up with Richard Grund. I might not care for Lenny that much, but I do believe this idea was a good one. People who loved Caylee, like Richard Grund, but banned can go and say good-bye together.

[IM4Truth]

I would think posters could leave their differences behind today and stop posting any negative opinions about anyone. It is Caylee's day, a day to celebrate her life. Can't you all show some love for one day? Or at least until the memorial service at the church and the prayer service at the site are over? Please show some respect for Caylee today.

IMO, Cindy won't share the spotlight with anyone.

Totally agree. This is her moment. She hasn't said anything publicly since Caylee's remains were found. We haven't seen her. SHe's been hiding low. And now, this.

Wonder if she's packing her own water. Since LE isn't asking tough questions, we shouldn't have to watch her molest herself with itches, scratches, and hands through the hair. Her shoes should stay on too.

[bballgrl]

Good Morning. :-)
I will be watching because I want to see what happens, not because I am participating in Cindy's show. I'll be very interested also in how many show up and who all goes to the place where the body was found and has a prayer session with LP and Richard Grund instead of the Anthony's.

Hi Kath! I have to be out in a District this morning and I would like to know how it goes. I won't be able to watch... can you let me know if all goes well? I am praying for a nice little ceremony in CAYLEES memory. Whatever happens AFTER the service is on Cindy!!!! JMO

[IM4Truth]

Some of the links may just be local news now or a black screen if they are on commercial break. Most will be live at 10 am. I know HLN will be showing it live if you have cable TV. I thought I heard that MSNBC would also have it live (but not absolutely sure on that).

[newsjunkie]

I am concerned about George..I hope he has lots of support today...


I wouldn't be too concerned kitty. George is where he wants to be or else he wouldn't be there.
That includes his going home from the hospital too.
I was hoping after his stay away in the hospital he would have gotten away from the people pressuring him. :(

Good Morning Stell Rose. With respect I disagree with the comment that KC was sorry in a way for what happened( i will never be able to believe that when I see the photos of her at the clubs) and in her statements in jailhouse tapes. I feel she is "sorry" no one bought into her Nanny story. KC could care less about a "circus". KC is a "circus" all by herself. "trying to do the right thing"???? This does not fit KC. IMO..KC is upset that "she" is not getting all the attention that is focused on Caylee today. She is extremely mad that Cindy is IN CHARGE of today. jmo

Sadly that probably won't happen today or any other day.

I gave my opinion about the Padilla/Grund alternate memorial and bam....my opinion wasn't slammed but I was personally.

And so it goes.

Me too Sis, he's going to need it. On the program they list a medley of Caylee's favorite songs and I'm sure "You are My Sunshine" will be among them.

Interesting, that the second song is Carole King's "Child of Mine." Interesting lyrics, imo.

[grammie/va]

I read his statement.

I don't think it's "classy" however to hold an "alternate" memorial for Caylee on the same day and time as the family's memorial for her.

I respect your opinion but I think he did say it was not a alternate memorial, just a way for the ones not invited to show respect for Caylee also. And I have no problem with that, a public memorial is public. Anyone should be able to attend.

[aubrey04]

I guess Baez and Baden's statement...errr.. I mean Casey's statement had the effect (at least on a few people) that these folks (Casey's lawyers) were aiming for. Take the focus of Casey and put it onto Cindy.

Casey didn't want a public memorial because she would not be getting the attention.. Caylee would be getting all the attention. Once again - all anyone "cares about is Caylee", not Casey - (Casey's own words)... then her lawyers started spinning this little fact to benefit Casey's rep..which seems to have worked.

Casey still murdered her kids and went partying days later and never told anyone she was rotting away and her little body was being picked apart by animals in the woods.

Understood Pru. I said that she may in some way feel sorry for what she did. That in no way mitigates her actions - any of them. A lot of killers 'feel sorry' later, but it changes nothing.

I also said in a post about 3 later that January Baby had a great point that this was all a ploy to garner sympathy for Casey. I don't know what anyone is thinking here - I just wish this circus would stop.

If you read my entire post, in no way was I showing compassion for Casey. I think she is vile and an abomination. That said, I think she was right in this one instance - this "memorial" is nothing but a show and is not bound to end well for anyone.

ETA: I guess I was giving the spiteful b**ch more credit than she deserved. I keep hoping for one spark of humanity from her. My first Very Unpopular Opinion. cool :-)

Side note...HLN showing live at the church and there are alot lined up already.

[Neffy]

I cant believe it. People started arriving at the church at 4:00 a.m. to guarantee a seat? This blows my mind.

This is ridiculous. Its not an event like waiting for tickets to go on sale for a football game or a concert. This memorial should have been private being televised for the public.

I'm sorry but I feel even more sorry for Caylee that it has boiled down to this. JMO

Power of suggestion. When has anyone showed up 6 hours before something started especially a memorial/funeral service.

Thanks Pru. THis is what I tried to say. IMO this is anattempt to humanize Casey by making Cindy the bad guy so Casey gets the sympathy. I wont fall into it, but it seems to be working on others. I said I didnt trust the Anthonys as far as I could throw them. That goes for Caseys joke of a lawyer too.

[Neffy]

I read his statement.

I don't think it's "classy" however to hold an "alternate" memorial for Caylee on the same day and time as the family's memorial for her.

It is classy. What's not classy is for Cindy to first announce and present an "uninvited" list when this service is not by invitation to begin with and to go in with this with an "unpure heart".

Even when something like this occurs it's not announced but usually an understanding between the people involved. Someone close to the family usually lets it be known to that person and still that person may or may not show but I've NEVER seen something publicly announced let alone a list even made a passed out.

Low, despicable and insulting showing Cindy thought of grinding her ax first and foremost.

[SavannahStar]

Savannah, he did not say that. I replied to your post but I guess you didn't see it. Mr. G as in Mr. Gator, my hubby, said that.


OMG, msg. No, I didn't see that. I'm sorry. I was taken aback, that didn't sound like Rev. Grund.

[crymeariver2006]

While I want Casey punished to the full extent of the law and hope that comes to pass quickly, I have to agree with you on this. The first thing that hit me when I heard the presser by Baez was that Cindy did this on purpose and to show final control. I thought how I would feel if it were my son and my mother did that. I would be livid and so frustrated that it had been taken away from me. I know she killed Caylee and doesn't deserve any rights, however something basic hit me on this about Cindy doing this to her. It's the first time I've felt any compassion for Casey and something this basic just seems to me to have been her call no matter the circumstances. Yet, I am livid she killed this baby, so I'm really torn in two on this subject.

Be torn no more.

You're presuming that Casey (the self admitted liar and 'selfish beyotch') is actually telling the truth when she claims that Cindy had Caylee cremated?

Not for one second do I believe Casey's had a 'come to Jesus' moment and will for now henceforth be telling the truth.

Uh-huh, no way, no how.

good morning everyone

If I am home, I will watch it, if not, I'll catch parts of it at work. Plus I'm sure we'll see all the "highlights" on HLN or You Tube.

maybe we can get a little closure today.

ok, off to work

Caylee was deceased before she was reported missing. When the finally found her remains, I said a prayer and got my closure. All that is left is for the murdurer to have her day in court. I personally think this circus is so abhorent. A funeral/memorial should be for those that knew her when she was alive , not strangers. If I understand correctly the body/remains will not be there and there is supposition that she has/has not been cremated. So does this mean that Cindy can later produce and direct a funeral.

In todays world of video production I can see copies of the memorial being sold. The sick part is that strangers will buy them if they are sold.

Where is Caylee in all this.

Someone used to have this as their tag line. I don't remember who, but I do remember how appropriate it was.

They took a vote, Caylee lost. Even after her death she is not the focus of anyone in this family. So sad.

[Neffy]

I hope others incarcerated with Casey have Caylee's memorial on the television & the sound turned up so atleast pos Casey will Have to hear it!!!

Rip.....Caylee....Justice Will Prevail...:rose:

I don't think for 1 second that Casey will not tune in.

[SavannahStar]

Hi SS-I usually agree with your views but I guess we disagee on this (no bashing though!). I think those who have been "shunned" feel a need to do something today. Yes, I am sure there will be some that are there for another reason but not all.

Hey not a problem. I do appreciate the "no bashing"!) :smile:

[daHawg]

What I don't get is the media even reporting on the jail saying Casey hasn't made a request to watch the memorial on tv etc. I am sure since Baez stated he isn't going to be there that he will be at the jail and they will both be sitting in the attorney/client room watching it on his laptop without anyone being able to see them and report on her demeanor etc. JB better not comment either because that is his long held belief not to comment on her reaction and how she is doing although today he probably will with the caveat like yesterday that it is "with his clients permission that he speaks" this is all a set up.

[destiny1]

Richard Grund said that? :ohmy: Wow. Just wow. :sad:

As much disgust as I and many feel for Cindy and Casey Anthony, this should be a time of reflection and celebration of the short life of Caylee Marie Anthony. All disagreements should be put aside just for her memory. Human nature dictates that there will be disagreement, hurt feelings, and bruised egos.

Whereever one goes to celebrate Caylee's life and to pay their respects to Caylee, we should all remember that this day is one that was set aside to do that and that alone.

Caylee's spirit has departed and has been gone since the day she drew her last earthly breath. These "memorials" are for the living.

But, if anyone wishes to participate in any of todays events, think about what Caylee, as the little child who despite the darkness of this world seemed to have a gentleness about her would want.

[msgatorslayer]

Exactly, if anyone is acting "petty" it's cindy

To make a disinvited list for a PUBLIC memorial just because some people expressed opinions contrary to Cindy is the height of "petty!"

Totally agree with that. The disinvited are the ones who bailed her brat out, got off their azzes and searched for her Caylee, and the family who loved Caylee like she was their own.

Very petty!!!

ETA - Is the Sheriff attending, Yuri, any investigators? They normally do. Any word on them?

Hi Stella! :seeya: I agree with you and can't believe the people choosing to partake in Cindy's event. However, I just hope everyone keeps Caylee in their prayers and behaves during this thing. I can't believe I, for once, agree with something Casey said. I agree with her that this should be private for family only. However, I thought it was interesting she wanted so much money spent on the funeral so she could have Caylee buried in a casket and a fancy headstone. Money doesn't grow on trees, "sweetheart" and since YOU put her there, you have no say or money to provide those things for her.

Good morning everyone..I do hope this Service this morning shows Caylee some dignity and respect:wub:

Well, I guess I just can't say anthing right today. I suppose I'll just go back to work and lurking and let you have the board. Cheers.

You just hold it and stay right where you are!! We all have a right to our own opinions as long as they are about this case. So sit back, relax and watch the show. ;-)

I personally know of one person at least from another board who is attending. He is honoring Caylee's memory by attending the memorial. That is his feelings.

Why didn't you do with him? You live in Florida.

[Neffy]

LP and Rev G will be at the alternate site at 9am....anybody got a live link to that? :wub:

This impromptu has much more meaning IMO and this is what I'd like to see. I hope something surfaces and someone from the media will show this "alternative" memorial.

Yep, youre right. She needs to stay and have her opinion like everyone else, no matter who agrees or disagrees and shouldnt be bashed for it.

[Texas48]

I just am not understanding at all the public statment. What in the world was her point?? I cannot believe that JB even took that to the press- she doesn't speak for weeks and that is what she had to say? I could have understood JB giving the statment to the A's privately and letting them know how KC feels about their decision but to broadcast that.... just shaking my head and it made me tear up to think that is all she had to say. IMO ITA.JB should have just kept his mouth shut. And for him to now say that there is not a minute goes by that KC does not think of Caylee. JB forgot to say that KC was glad she had 31 great days that Caylee was "missing" partying at the clubs because THOSE FUN DAYS are OVER>

[Cury-us Coyote]

9:04 a.m. -- Padilla has not yet arrived for the alternate service at the site where Caylee was found.

9:03 a.m. -- There are three entrances to the sanctuary

8:58 a.m. -- Casey Anthony has not made a request to watch the memorial this morning.

I'm surprised an Orlando outlet doesn't have a live feed for it, yet.

WHen I woke this morning, Baynews 9, Tampa outlet, had a reporter at that sight. There was just one woman, dressed in black. I still have the station on TV and haven't seen anything more on it.

Don't agree with what Baez says Casey said.

Casey never tells the truth and has never shown an ounce of empathy for anybody, let alone her own family.

Baez probably made up his own statement to gloss over what Casey really said.

Yup. There isnt a minute that Casey doesnt think about Caylee? She had 31 days to think about her but her actions say she never did ( except probably to worry if someone would find her daughters burial site.)

Sorry if I offended anyone. I truly did not mean to.

I am always correcting people, friends, when this topic is discussed, that Casey NEVER reported her Daughter missing. People I know who don't follow the case really think, as most the news agencies report, that Casey waited 31 days to report Caylee missing.

[SavannahStar]

Well, I guess I just can't say anthing right today. I suppose I'll just go back to work and lurking and let you have the board. Cheers.

I don't want to have the board, LOL. Hope you stay. I wanted to let you know of one dear person (who searched for Caylee, also, I believe) who is attending to honor her memory. I'm sure there are plenty of others as well.

[Texas48]

Padilla said it is not a memorial but a place for those "disinvited" to go. These are people who cared for, would have moved heaven and earth, and loved Caylee and were cast aside
That is pretty much what I said.

That lone person who arrived by herself at that site has more meaning then any of these people standing in line IMO.

Even if no one ends up there I do think that site is important to show and brings it back to Caylee.

[CelticDawn]

Good Morning Everyone!! :rose:

I hope that everyone who is here realizes that NONE of this is FOR Caylee....It is for everybody who is participating or watching <whichever it is>

we all have emotional attachments to this baby and we all want to see justice for her ....but THE SPIRIT of all of this has turned even meaner.....and caylee wouldnt have wanted this....

Lets all reflect on CAYLEE and focus onJUSTICE being served for her


Hope I didnt offend anyone....but Im just saying....

[nothingnew]

I am shocked (from the photos) that so many people are choosing to participate in this 'media event'. It just seems disgraceful to Caylee's memory and in horrible form. IMO of course.

I am sure that most of them are not there to disgrace her memory. That being said-I do believe the majority attending are actually parishioners (sp?) of that, um "church" (not the bad 'west' ones either, the 'east' one where this event is hosted). Just an opinion, I am just getting a 'vibe' after checking their website with the 'media store' and every quote from the Bible concerning, uh, 'giving' (and how convenient it is that you can give online). Seems like a good fit for the a's, kfn and the a's attorneys (also known as "I said that. Did I say that? No, I didn't say that"). No offence to the parishioners!

I think by now she is fuming that there hasn't been a massive effort to show that she is wrongfully accused. She was hoping more peeps would donate to her defense fund and set up sites for "Casey is innocent".

Caylee is getting all the attention. Along with her Mom. And she sits, eating her snacks in jail.

Hi SS-I usually agree with your views but I guess we disagee on this (no bashing though!). I think those who have been "shunned" feel a need to do something today. Yes, I am sure there will be some that are there for another reason but not all.
IMO Lenny appeared to have his feelings hurt over the uninvited list with his name being on top. He may feel TOUGH but i do think this hurt him as I am certain it di to Rev. Grund and his family. I am not certain Marc Klass would have attended anyway even if his name was on the LIST. hmo

[Neffy]

Me too.....right now the news is saying only about 500 in line and in the church right now.

I once showed up a few hours early for general seating at a Crosby, Stills, Nash concert years ago, an hour or so early for a parade.

I have never arrived early to get a seat at a memorial, funeral or wedding. Front row wasn't ever a thought during a service.

[nc1948]

I really dont think there is a tug of war going on. Thats what I tried to say in my post. I believe this is all set up to make Casey look better and Cindy is being the bad guy for it. They ahve to find a way to humanize Casey before her trial.

They have let Casey lead the show and bent over backwards to defend her, with George even telling her shes the boss. Now all of a sudden, they go against her wishes? That doesnt make sense. Its a set up. They arent playing tug of war with Casey, they are setting it up for sympathy.

I trust the Anthonys as far as I can throw them and Im only 4 foot 10.


I so agree. George did say Casey was the boss. Cindy has lied and lied fo Casey. And now all of a sudden they are going against her wishes. They think we(posters, news, and especially LE) are so stupid they we will feel so sorry for Casey because her controlling Mother did not abide by her wishes in regards to the remains of her child. Not gonna happen. This in no way at all makes me more sympathetic towards Casey. It didn't work.

LOL Truth, she added two names since last night. It was 24 last night. I wonder who she added?

[Pat]

Cindy and Casey are exactly alike: liars

I think this was JBs lame idea. The timing of it is suspect to me. If Casey were grieving for Caylee and didn't want this show, it would have been mention a lot sooner.


The sad fact is we can't trust any of these people to be truthful. Conway says Caylee's remains haven't been cremated. He's the same one who said it wasn't Cindy who supplied the clothes and bracelet for the last hearing. She did. I think it will be days before the truth of the matter filters out. But ponder on this:

Casey used the word "funeral" in the statement Baez released. She never said anything about a public memorial, which is what Cindy is having today.

The Anthonys could very well follow Casey's wishes regarding the funeral down to a T, including the wish for a casket and headstone.

How self-serving of Baez to have his presser yesterday. Did he not see the irony in the whining of a suspected murderer regarding her victim's burial? He used this occasion to get face time with the press.
