Good Morning Sun! :seeya:
We must be on the same thought wave this morning. I was looking for the next court days when you posted.
ETA ~ Is the Motion to Strike Notice of Deposition re Dominic Casey?

Probably. The State had scheduled DCasey to sit for a deposition in November, however it was rescheduled to sometime in December. I can't remember the exact date though.

Morning Everyone..Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Family..Friends..Love & Lots of good food!..
Q.. Does Amy have to be present at the Check Fraud Hearing..or just her Lawyer?..
( Also wondering why the A's dont sit closer since it would be easier to get a glimse or nod from their Adoring Daughter Baby Killer..seems like they are always in the back)
Morgan/Mitnik also have now asked that a TRIAL DATE be set for the Civil Case. I am going to be extremely disappointed if Judge Rodriguez keeps giving them the run-around.

Good morning. I wonder if Jose wishes he would have settled this case early on instead of filing his counter suit?

JMO
IMO, Judge Rodriguez is doing many things to avoid making a decision on whether to delay the Civil Case until after the Murder Case is held. I'm thinking that we likely may see Kasen filing yet again, to have the case stayed until after the Murder Case. And, that the Judge will delay acting on setting a trial date, because of this motion that I'm sure Kasen will file. (and it's going to take Kasen 3-4 months to get a court hearing date).
Hearing set for January 10, 2010 --In January the judge will decide if a private investigator will have to go through depositions with Gonzalez’s attorneys and if the private investigator Dominic Casey will be fined. They claim he lied under oath.
Good morning. I wonder if Jose wishes he would have settled this case early on instead of filing his counter suit?
I'm so confused as to how Casey can file a counter-suit, yet never take action to move it towards trial.
Lyon has interjected herself into the criminal check/fraud case (her pro hac vice still appears to have not yet been approved though). Will Lyon also try to interject herself into the Civil Case?

I am guessing that she wants to elbow her way into every aspect of Casey's trials. She is steam rolling along trying to further her name in lights is my take on her. (well one of my takes). MOO

Good morning Everyone :seeya:
Sitting in my hubby's hospital room. He is asleep. I love WiFI.
Thinking...
I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was wonderful. Mine and Hubby's went Bust!
Hubby admitted to hospital Wednesday afternoon. Pancretitis we thought it was gastritis. Scary when you self diagnose yourself.
Very painful.
I was thinking about the comparison of my Thanksgiving and Casey's
even though I do have a conscience that she appears not to have.
Very lonely yesterday at lunch time,knowing that the family was all together and eating all the favorites the kids asked grandma to make.
It was sad that KC made a choice to put herself where she is at today and where Caylee is at is even sadder. Caylee is going on 5 and what a wonderful age that is.The holidays and children. What fun!
It was great when everyone came to the hospital yesterday afternoon to visit with us and know that they are supporting us and love us.
I can't believe KC chooses to live in solitude. It is a hopless place to be.
Without my family and my husband's family I would have been very scared Wednesday night without their support.
I don't know how KC stood up to the killing Caylee and then to face LE and never crack.
Just amazing how you can get to such a lonely place (in your head).
during the holidays.

Aw Jeep, very sorry about your Hubbie. Your family here is thinking about you both and hoping he makes a quick recovery.
I was thinking on the little jailbird with her pressed turkey roll too yesterday. So many lives ruined because of her selfish, violent actions.
Bella Vita? I don't think so KC.

Awwww Jeepers, hang in there. I hope hubby will be just fine. Keep us posted.
I try not to think about Casey too much. Not worth my brain cells. She's a sociopath, which I just don't understand. And, yes Caylee would be 5 this coming August 9. I know this because she's the same age as my grand daughter, born only 6 days apart.

Hope everything turns out OK with your Hubby Jeepers. The hospital is a lonely place to be on any day and worse on a holiday. I would imagine that a jail cell is even lonelier. I would hope that the Anthony's and Casey's minds all went to Caylee yesterday and that they realized what they were all missing. And I hope it hurt. Their holidays are forever changed. Maybe somehow George and Cindy will find it in their hearts to do they right thing by Caylee, even if it means losing their daughter. It's the season of miracles and one can always hope.

Thank you everyone for the kind words and prayers.
I just know that when things happen in my family how everyone comes to the rescue. There is no saving KC. There is nothing anyone can physically do to help calm her fears or make things go away. The Anthony's spout their love and support for her yet their actions speak louder than words. They know she killed Caylee and even though they lie and say vile things to the public, LE and anybody else in their way at the end of the day they are at a hopeless place.
Cindy said something (I think in her State Depo) that has me wondering. She said something like, "I'm supposed to be journaling every day, but just can't do it." Or something like that.
So WHY is Cindy SUPPOSED to be journaling? Perhaps she's in counseling and this is what her counselor wants her to do? Perhaps she's doing it because she has a future book deal? What do you all think the reason could be? (or I suppose Cindy could just have lied about it too)

I have to say I beleive Cindy is definetly planning on a book deal. Can you just picture her on a book tour, TV appearances, book signings? Ah, the possibilties. Instead of visions of sugarplums this season, Cindy has visions of granduer.

Yes, they (George and Cindy) are in a hopeless place, and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. JMO.
Isn't it odd how these cases touch our lives so much. I REFUSE to let my grand daughter learn the song "You Are My Sunshine". That was Caylee's song, IMO. When grand daughter was about 2, her mom wanted to dress her in the skunk costume that Neil Entwistle's daughter wore before she was murdered, I said don't do it, here's why and showed her a picture of that beautiful baby. My daughter said that I was a nut case, which I may well be LOL, but my grand daughter didn't wear that costume that year. JMO.

Good Morning, I think Cindy's journal is something she does to keep her stories straight. I think she carries this journal (white notebook) around with her every where. While she may not be keeping this updated as much as she did in the beginning, I think it is an ongoing project for her.

Dun,
I guess we are all nuts that we follow this case so close. I agree with your crazy rational. "You are My Sunshine" is an ole time favorite of our Bluegrass group but now when we play it, it has a different meaning and not a fun sing along for me anymore.
This case has really made people aware of how the brain can get cross wired. KC looks like a functional 23 year old on the outside but when the ugly from the inside comes out it is scary to know how her mind really works. I listen to people talk with a little more intensity when they get off with their me isms.

A question is sticking in the forefront of my mind and just won't go away. Re the murder case: It appears the defense wants to propose other scenarios/theories, and "consider that maybe Kronk did it" is the most recent deviation from the Nanny story. How in the world is the defense going to get away from the Nanny lies without putting Casey on the stand to testify/explain? It will require Baez, et al, to come up with new lies to cover that one if they hope to accomplish escaping the Nanny line.........but even so, how will they get it before a jury or even before the general public?

I don't think it would necessarily mean they would have to lose their daughter. People often have to travel to see family members who live some place else. Caylee and Casey will never again be a part of their holiday festivities. They can either accept this and make other arrangements to go to her, or spend their days blaming someone else.
Caylee is gone, and Casey can't "come home again". This does not mean they have lost Casey, just have her in a different way. Who they have lost is Caylee.
I have to say I beleive Cindy is definetly planning on a book deal. Can you just picture her on a book tour, TV appearances, book signings? Ah, the possibilties. Instead of visions of sugarplums this season, Cindy has visions of granduer.
I can't picture her doing a book tour. The media is just "using" Cindy and when Casey is convicted, Cindy's media appearances will quickly come to an end. JMO
Did Cindy tell a lie in her State Depo, when she said she was a natural blond? I've seen her eyebrows, and IMO they appear a way too dark for a natural blond. (guess what I'm doing today?)

It could be that they are planning in their opening statement, to say that Casey may have lied to LE because she was scared. And, that they might say that just because Casey was scared and lied, that it doesn't prove that she had anything to do with proving that Casey murdered anyone. (imo, none of this would work, as Casey continued to still say that Zenaida had her child in the DCF August interview)

Who knows...she changes her stories like most people change items of personal clothing. I think when she began it was to help Casey. I am not sure of that any more because I have heard her say several things that were not helpful to Casey. Maybe she is keeping notes for a book, but I don't know that she organized well enough for such an endeavor. From what I know of her, her attention span is not very long...hence the note book. So, I guess there are lots of reasons why she keeps notes, or as she says "journals".

I agree a book tour would not be in cindy's future unless it was behind bullet proof glass. She is not a likeable person to begin with. The public would not be kind to her appearance at book signings just my opinion.
I agree that when the trial is over so will the TV appearances and $$.
Yeah cindy's hair color Natural Blonde Right! Why do they lie about everything? They lie about the least things so lying about bigger things is natural. That is the only Natural about her. A natural blonde liar. ok.

Thanks everyone for your opinions on why Cindy was supposed to be journaling. I find it interesting that nobody said that it might be due to any professional counseling that Cindy may be undergoing. I didn't really think that it was because a professional counselor wanted Cindy to be journaling either. ...but because Cindy saying that she wasn't keeping up with her journaling, I was waivering just a bit.

Good morning Jeepers. Hope hubby is doing better today.
Somehow emergencies seem even worse when they disrupt a holiday that has been lovingly anticipated and prepared for.
Your response is how most people feel, it's hard to be isolated from family and friends who support and love us. But sociopaths like Casey don't have the same feelings...... no feelings, actually, and she probably was just as happy in her 'dorm room' with her pressed turkey as she would have been in the middle of a family gathering in front of a table laden with all sorts of holiday goodies. No, actually she probably was even happier because she would not have had to act like a normal person, interact with the others, smile and be pleasant, when there was nothing in it for her but a meal. She got the meal without having to exert herself. She probably likes it better.
If you want to feel sorry that she's having that experience, it's probably more appropriate to feel sorry because she's an empty husk who can't feel the love and support you felt when your family went to the hospital to be there for you and your hubby. Now that's where the sadness lies.

Sharon Rocha wrote a book called "Laci and Me", sold big time. That's a whole different ball of wax from what Cindy could write a book about. I just can't see anything we would be interested in hearing from her that we don't already know. JMO.

When I get upset with the defense's antics, I tend to get up from my computer chair and go outside for a walk. This case sure has improved my fitness level, in addition to conditioning me to not get so upset. By trial time, I probably should see about getting my computer installed on a treadmill. :laugh:

I don't think she's mentally disciplined enough to put a book together. At least, not a book anybody would be interested in. More likely it would be a litany of how she feels about everything and everybody that has intersected her path since all this happened and how her life will never be the same and moan and groan and throw dirt at people......... who would want to read that????
She probably thinks the world is waiting with bated breath for her book, though. But I guess if she's actually not journaling it would all be our of her memory, wouldn't it? It would all be fiction one way or another.I wouldn't give her satisfaction by reading it.

I wonder why she isn't doing it regularly any more? Is she bored with the whole thing by now, or is it that there's just not much more for her to add?

I'm curious about some of the items found in Casey's car. Besides the big can of Arm and Hammer, there was a bunch of other stuff, like an empty bologna container, the pizza box, a stouffer's dinner thing (more than one), and I'm wondering if Casey used to feed Caylee bologna sandwiches, frozen TV dinners, etc., before she chloroformed her. Just my idle thoughts, and JMO.

I'm always amused at the way defense lawyers make pronouncements as if they had been right there at the scene when the event occurred and they aver that the defendant did not do it, did not do it the way the prosecution has speculated, in fact wasn't even there when it happened..........

It's just something about the way they present themselves, not that they sound as if they believe their clients, not that they act as if they are sure that their clients have told them the absolute truth, but that they knowfor a factthat it all happened exactly this way because they know. It isn't just Dear Jose doing it ( oh, sorry, I guess he's realized by now that he isn't so dear any more), it comes out of all of them. Must be a course they all have to take in law school, huh?

When I get upset with the defense's antics, I tend to get up from my computer chair and go outside for a walk. This case sure has improved my fitness level, in addition to conditioning me to not get so upset. By trial time, I probably should see about getting my computer installed on a treadmill. :laugh:
Hilarious! My uncle's doctor instructed him to stop watching baseball because he was afraid it would give my uncle a heart attack. If a baseball game could give my uncle a heart attack, this case could give me a stroke, and I'm already thinking of skipping the broadcast of opening statements and just reading about it here, instead.

That is funny. Casey and Me we are just alike! That should be classified as a mystery/horror book.

Thanks everyone for your opinions on why Cindy was supposed to be journaling. I find it interesting that nobody said that it might be due to any professional counseling that Cindy may be undergoing. I didn't really think that it was because a professional counselor wanted Cindy to be journaling either. ...but because Cindy saying that she wasn't keeping up with her journaling, I was waivering just a bit.
My bold
I have never been able to imagine Cindy actually making use of any kind of professional counseling or being able to follow a counselor's advice. She already knows what's best, why would she want to change?
I'm always amused at the way defense lawyers make pronouncements as if they had been right there at the scene when the event occurred and they aver that the defendant did not do it, did not do it the way the prosecution has speculated, in fact wasn't even there when it happened.......... Its even funnier when the story keeps changing. They have to 'forget' what they said before, and somehow they manage to do it with a straight face. It's just something about the way they present themselves, not that they sound as if they believe their clients, not that they act as if they are sure that their clients have told them the absolute truth, but that they knowfor a factthat it all happened exactly this way because they know. It isn't just Dear Jose doing it ( oh, sorry, I guess he's realized by now that he isn't so dear any more), it comes out of all of them. Must be a course they all have to take in law school, huh?
I was amused (not sure this is the right word) that Baez stood in the courtroom and stated that he'd talked with his client that day, and that she had waived her appearance at the court hearing that day. Especially when I later viewed Casey's inmate visitor's log, and saw that Baez hadn't visited her that day, or even the previous two days. ....that is the court hearing where Judge Strickland ordered Casey to be brought to the hearing.
Can an attorney call the jail and ask to speak with their client? Can they do this at all hours, or can they do this during a specified time, or is this not allowed at all?

Good morning Jeepers. Hope hubby is doing better today.
Somehow emergencies seem even worse when they disrupt a holiday that has been lovingly anticipated and prepared for.
Your response is how most people feel, it's hard to be isolated from family and friends who support and love us. But sociopaths like Casey don't have the same feelings...... no feelings, actually, and she probably was just as happy in her 'dorm room' with her pressed turkey as she would have been in the middle of a family gathering in front of a table laden with all sorts of holiday goodies. No, actually she probably was even happier because she would not have had to act like a normal person, interact with the others, smile and be pleasant, when there was nothing in it for her but a meal. She got the meal without having to exert herself. She probably likes it better.
If you want to feel sorry that she's having that experience, it's probably more appropriate to feel sorry because she's an empty husk who can't feel the love and support you felt when your family went to the hospital to be there for you and your hubby. Now that's where the sadness lies.
Thank you Puff,
Yes when bad things Mark a Holiday you never forget that day. My family as crazy as it sounds do believe in Markings. Holidays, babies, etc.
Doctor just left. We don't drink and the other main cause is GallStones and then medicine's side effect. Test, Gall Bladder Fine.
So the doctor's are leaning toward a new Triglyceride medicine he was just put on a month ago.
So good news we should be going home in the a.m.:thumbsup:
You are so right Puff, KC is happy. Her twiddle brain does not have to work overtime to appear normal. She likes her Dorm Room just the way it is. I am glad mixed vegetables were on her menu! YUCK!

ITA. For a professional counselor, having Cindy as a patient would be a very difficult experience. Cindy has "said" that she is getting disability, and could she be just going through the motions to keep that in place? I really have no clue. But have no doubt that Cindy needs long-term professional counseling.
Good Morning All! :seeya:

I would think having cindy as a patient the counselor would need a counselor. cindy does need counseling in the worst way. Whether she gets a check for it or not. cindy had a lot of issues even before Caylee born probably before Lee or KC were born. I hope that she gets to place where she does realize this and gets real help. I cannot imagine the brain storms she experiences whether self induced or just because of so much baggage in her life.
I am such a routine person when I think of cindy and the lies she tells the extreme embellishments she thinks are essential for the lie to become believeable it makes my brain hurt. I just would be a wreck and I would have to just throw my hands up and give all this back to the person it belongs to KC. I don't think I could take all the drama.

I don't think she's mentally disciplined enough to put a book together. At least, not a book anybody would be interested in. More likely it would be a litany of how she feels about everything and everybody that has intersected her path since all this happened and how her life will never be the same and moan and groan and throw dirt at people......... who would want to read that????
She probably thinks the world is waiting with bated breath for her book, though. But I guess if she's actually not journaling it would all be our of her memory, wouldn't it? It would all be fiction one way or another.I wouldn't give her satisfaction by reading it.
Hi Puff!
I tend to agree ... if it were edited by the publisher ... there wouldn't be anything non-fiction left !!
No doubt Cindy picked up the "journal everyday" idea from her counselor ... these are supposed to be private, honest accounts about events and your feelings as they directly affect you ... "honest" is the key word here ... "private" means it's not a tell all manuscript for a possible future book ...
Who on earth would want to publish it much less read it as Cindy's account of this tragedy is beyond me ...

If the killing of Cindys grandaughter by her daughter doesn't give Cindy a reason to seek councelling for her serious disorder, nothing will.
She has created irreversible damage to her own family and future.
I agree with your post and any councellor of Cindys would need a TEAM and a straightjacket, court ordered.

Sorry your Thanksgiving went bust, Jeepers. :sad:
Here's wishing your hubs a fast recovery from his <ouch> pancreatitis!
Thank you, Yeah, very painful and scary. The hospital food reminded me of KC yesterday. I had to laugh a few times out loud.
At least our families came to see us despite their own busy schedules.
It was great to see everyone and it was heartwarming for me and hubby that they came.
I know that KC and her parents communicate through Baez but it is just not the same as seeing each other with your own eyes.
Hubby's sister and her husband are missionaries and we only get to see them every three years. We e-mail and all of that but it is just not the same. They are home now but will be going to Haiti at the end of the month. We miss them so much when they are gone. I can't believe that cindy and George are just not climbing the walls knowing that KC is just down the street and she does not want to see them. Heartbreaking for normal folks.

Oh yeah, really looking forward to baden expanding on that characterization of murdering Caylee.
Of course they will tell the jury to expect "compelling" reasons for everything the defendant did, but won't deliver....imo.

Did Cindy tell a lie in her State Depo, when she said she was a natural blond? I've seen her eyebrows, and IMO they appear a way too dark for a natural blond. (guess what I'm doing today?)
Sometimes people think they are a natural blond if they were blond as a child. Most people's hair darkens when they become an adult. My siblings were tow heads when we were young. Does that make them a natural blond now when their hair is a dark brunette? Just another rationalization.

Maybe he was trying to avoid the media? :confused: Heck Casey wasn't going anywhere. JMO.
Actually, Sun, I do think it's because she's being counseled (you gotta wait for us west coasters to get up and get here to answer questions posted at, like, 3am our time :w00t:).
The reason I feel that way is because if she was "supposed to" journal for any other reason than to help her emotionally, imo, she would not mention it. If she was keeping a journal for a future book to cash in on her tragedy, she wouldn't mention it. Imo, 99% of what Cindy says is for effect, and she especially likes to say things she thinks will garner sympathy. "I'm supposed to be journaling" is one of those sympathy ploy statements, imo. She's hoping there'll be a followup question so she can talk about how she's just such a mess from all this, she's been counseled to journal to express her feelings. To me, her journaling comments are of exactly the same ilk as her "I don't eat" and "I haven't slept" comments. They are self-serving statements she makes to grab attention and try to stir up either sympathy or guilt in her audience.
Glad that you posted, and yes I do sometimes forget to allow time enough for west coasties to view postings done early in the day. Cindy does seem to stray around in her responses to questions, and your reasoning makes great sense. Thanks! I have quite a difficult time trying to figure out why Cindy does or says the things that she says or does.

Good morning Everyone :seeya:
Sitting in my hubby's hospital room. He is asleep. I love WiFI.
Thinking...
I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was wonderful. Mine and Hubby's went Bust!
Hubby admitted to hospital Wednesday afternoon. Pancretitis we thought it was gastritis. Scary when you self diagnose yourself.
Very painful.
I was thinking about the comparison of my Thanksgiving and Casey's
even though I do have a conscience that she appears not to have.
Very lonely yesterday at lunch time,knowing that the family was all together and eating all the favorites the kids asked grandma to make.
It was sad that KC made a choice to put herself where she is at today and where Caylee is at is even sadder. Caylee is going on 5 and what a wonderful age that is.The holidays and children. What fun!
It was great when everyone came to the hospital yesterday afternoon to visit with us and know that they are supporting us and love us.
I can't believe KC chooses to live in solitude. It is a hopless place to be.
Without my family and my husband's family I would have been very scared Wednesday night without their support.
I don't know how KC stood up to the killing Caylee and then to face LE and never crack.
Just amazing how you can get to such a lonely place (in your head).
during the holidays.
Aww Jeepers...since I am almost your adopted daughter...wish I could have been in that hospital room with you! So glad everything is ok. Amazing how life changes in a split second. You were praying so hard the day before Thanksgiving....no wonder your husband is going to be just fine!!!!
Give him all of our best here from your adopted family!!:wub:

Cindy said something (I think in her State Depo) that has me wondering. She said something like, "I'm supposed to be journaling every day, but just can't do it." Or something like that.
So WHY is Cindy SUPPOSED to be journaling? Perhaps she's in counseling and this is what her counselor wants her to do? Perhaps she's doing it because she has a future book deal? What do you all think the reason could be? (or I suppose Cindy could just have lied about it too)

For me it's because she continues to defend Casey, although I'm sure she knows better. I've always known Cindy isn't a person I'd ever like or who would ever be my friend, but it's not that I'm angry with her. I just don't like her.

The reason I feel that way is because if she was "supposed to" journal for any other reason than to help her emotionally, imo, she would not mention it. If she was keeping a journal for a future book to cash in on her tragedy, she wouldn't mention it. Imo, 99% of what Cindy says is for effect, and she especially likes to say things she thinks will garner sympathy. "I'm supposed to be journaling" is one of those sympathy ploy statements, imo. She's hoping there'll be a followup question so she can talk about how she's just such a mess from all this, she's been counseled to journal to express her feelings. To me, her journaling comments are of exactly the same ilk as her "I don't eat" and "I haven't slept" comments. They are self-serving statements she makes to grab attention and try to stir up either sympathy or guilt in her audience.
My bold
Wow, Say, I hadn't thought of it that way, I think maybe that makes sense. I really couldn't figure why she would make a point of that, it just didn't fit, if you're not doing it then why bring it up? But putting it together with her other whines, yes, I can see it. Very good logic trail there!

Why are people so angry with Cindy? She didn't murder Caylee. :confused: And yes, I have followed her antics, but she's not the evil one sitting in jail. Is it because there is nothing else to talk about?
Easy. Because she chose Casey over Caylee, in life and now in death. She's obstructed justice and sold Caylee's memory down the river for $$. Disgusting.

For me it's because she continues to defend Casey, although I'm sure she knows better. I've always known Cindy isn't a person I'd ever like or who would ever be my friend, but it's not that I'm angry with her. I just don't like her.
All I can say is don't judge a person until you walk in their shoes. Let's hope to god your child doesn't murder your grand child. THEN you could judge Cindy if you have a base to enumerate your opinion.
Not defending Cindy at all. But SHE did not murder Caylee. JMO.

I have never been able to imagine Cindy actually making use of any kind of professional counseling or being able to follow a counselor's advice. She already knows what's best, why would she want to change?
i could see cindy attending counseling IF she is claiming some type of stress-related disability (to lend more 'credibility' to such a claim). whether she would actually follow a counselor's advice is a different story!

I think of the term journaling as a means to express one's deepest (usually most private and honest) thoughts, so I don't connect the word with notekeeping for a book. Probably an oversight on my part when it comes to Cindy. :rolleyes:
My mind went to book deal because I remember at some point the subject of the book they wanted to write was how to get through such a media circus in a high profile case. (or am I nuts and the subject of the book was something else entirely)

I'm not angry with Cindy, Dunnie. I just think she's a fool.
I believe that it's easy to get angry with her for the way she allowed Casey, for whatever reason, to progress to the point of eliminating her daughter. Since unlike the perpetrator she's still walking around and talking (and blogging and posting) she's a natural target for anybody who needs to express the frustration that we all feel at the slow grinding wheels of justice.
But that's just MO.

I have never opined that I believe Cindy murdered Caylee. I believe Cindy enabled. The worst now is that Cindy would allow ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD to be blamed for Caylee's death rather that Casey. I don't even really judge Cindy most of the time, and there are moments when I feel awfully sorry for her, but she's got to be the most crass, crude person I've seen displayed in the media in a very long time. Of course I don't like her.

ITA. For a professional counselor, having Cindy as a patient would be a very difficult experience. Cindy has "said" that she is getting disability, and could she be just going through the motions to keep that in place? I really have no clue. But have no doubt that Cindy needs long-term professional counseling.
i just posted something similar re cindy going through the motions for a disability claim :biggrin:
Why are people so angry with Cindy? She didn't murder Caylee. :confused: And yes, I have followed her antics, but she's not the evil one sitting in jail. Is it because there is nothing else to talk about?
I do not like the fact that Cindy is not seeking Justice for Caylee. Cindy is seeking to blame the death of Caylee on anyone BUT Casey. And IMO, Cindy continues to spin lies and tries to use the media to mislead the public. ...I have to stop now, I could go on and on.

I will remember you at Christmas!:scared:
The Doctor kept looking at me and our son when asking Him about his drinking habits like we were lying about him being a closet drinker it was so funny. He would even re word his questions in reference to drinking and then look at me and Randy like fess up. I wanted to make a false confession just so he would be satisfied that he broke me down under the hot bright lights of the ER.
How KC stood up to LE knowing she was lying is just beyond ME!

Did you get enough answers to your question intended to antagonize posters?
Are you new here? or do you sincerly NOT understand the majority of public opinion with regards to Cindys role in this entire case?
Have YOU seen Cindy Anthony thanks LE, searchers, Roy Kronk, or sit behind the prosecution for CAYLEE?
Where would YOU sit in the courtroom if YOUR grandchild was murdered? Would you LIE, manipulate the media and OBSTRUCT justice or TAMPER with evidence?

I can confidently say that I would never walk in cynthia's shoes, because I would not cover up for any child of mine that murdered anyone.
My concern would be the soul of my child, in addition to their life. I would urge them to tell the truth and to get them all the help I could afford.
I would not go into coverup mode and point the finger of guilt at innocent people.

Aww Jeepers...since I am almost your adopted daughter...wish I could have been in that hospital room with you! So glad everything is ok. Amazing how life changes in a split second. You were praying so hard the day before Thanksgiving....no wonder your husband is going to be just fine!!!!
Give him all of our best here from your adopted family!!:wub:
Kakax my sweet adopted daughter thank you for your loving words. Life changes too quick. I try to say prayers throughout the day for everyone and everything. Sometimes it is hard to pray, there are other times it feels like my prayers go no higher than the ceiling. I have to pray. These cases are so horrific and effect so many lives and I say things that I should not (utter excitement) so I pray.
Family and friends are so important it is just so sad that KC made the decision destroy hers. No family is perfect and even though we have a window in the Athony home and we can see all of their dysfunction like an open wound. They never thought that one of their own could do such a horrific deed. Murder their grandbaby. I bet they have said more prayers than I could ever muster.

I can't picture her doing a book tour. The media is just "using" Cindy and when Casey is convicted, Cindy's media appearances will quickly come to an end. JMO
Did Cindy tell a lie in her State Depo, when she said she was a natural blond? I've seen her eyebrows, and IMO they appear a way too dark for a natural blond. (guess what I'm doing today?)

... and on and on and on. Cindy's desire to enable Casey yet again and commit the further atrocity of pinning her daughter's crime on someone else, is how that family got to this place, imo. Caylee's murder wasn't some random act occurring out of nowhere. It was the result of 22 years of one psychopath cultivating another.

Not defending Cindy at all. But SHE did not murder Caylee. JMO.
however, she withheld possible evidence from LE. the blanket. for 6 months. that is a known fact, straight from her own mouth when she saw it on the search warrant. it was found with the body, and you can be sure it was the same one 'she knew was missing' in June.
every single thing of Caylee's was intact in her room. during all of Casey's visits back to the home she took nothing of Caylee's. shoes, clothes toys, all there. EXCEPT THAT BLANKET. Cindy, in her excited utterance during the search warrant, stated she KNEW IT WAS MISSING.
LE would have been very interested in knowing it was missing PRIOR to her remains being found. after all, no information was provided to LE regarding 'what Cindy knew' as far as what Casey took of Caylee's from the home. SHE CLAIMED NOTHING. the claim is she left with the clothes on her back.
the hamper....speculation, but keeping with recognizing Cindy's knack for lying, I lean toward her knowing that was missing as well. and perhaps a few other things we have yet to know about.
not a murderer, however, she made several efforts to compromise the investigation of 'her missing grandchild'. withholding information that results in evidence (found with the remains) is/was aiding the only suspect LE had at the time which was:
a mother who never reported her child missing and then took LE on a wild goose chase within a few hours of the investigation.....
Cindy A decided to take LE on the same ride that Casey did.....*this is what Casey told me*....not, *this is what I know to be a lie because (fill in whatever she withheld from LE)* <----Cindy lied to investigators AND was on board with Casey lying to family services, another investigative body <----aiding and abetting......
IMO

Why are people so angry with Cindy? She didn't murder Caylee. :confused: And yes, I have followed her antics, but she's not the evil one sitting in jail. Is it because there is nothing else to talk about?
Here's an excellent reason - cindy has thrown everyone casey ever spoke to under the bus. :cursing: She has blamed everyone for things her murdering daughter did. She doesn't seem to care that Jesse's life, for example, will never be the same because she went out of her way to slander him. That Amy, who cindy decided at one point, was actually the mysterious (and fictious) Zani, might never get over this. No one likes to see innocent people destroyed just so a hungry ego can be well fed. :thumbdown: And that's what cindy is actually doing - she is trampling on anyone and everyone to guard her own pathetic reputation. It's not casey she's protecting, it's herself. There is nothing inside cindy to like.

I would not say that I'm "angry" with Cindy, but she is the master manipulator behind this tragedy.
She never held Casey accountable for any of her actions and the result was a young woman who thought she could murder her child and walk away from it knowing that mom would make it all better... the way she did with everything else she ever did in her life.

All I can say is don't judge a person until you walk in their shoes. Let's hope to god your child doesn't murder your grand child. THEN you could judge Cindy if you have a base to enumerate your opinion.
Not defending Cindy at all. But SHE did not murder Caylee. JMO.

Florida Statutes 921.141
I'm going to have to look up this law. Lyon seems to not like it at all. It appears to be good enough for other criminals tried in Florida, but she appears to think that Casey is "special" or something.
and maybe tell us what that means...:tongueside: I can't tell who's filing what about who.

I would say so. Not to mention that the "hot body" is getting less and less "hot" as the days go by. :smile:

however, she withheld possible evidence from LE. the blanket. for 6 months. that is a known fact, straight from her own mouth when she saw it on the search warrant. it was found with the body, and you can be sure it was the same one 'she knew was missing' in June.
every single thing of Caylee's was intact in her room. during all of Casey's visits back to the home she took nothing of Caylee's. shoes, clothes toys, all there. EXCEPT THAT BLANKET. Cindy, in her excited utterance during the search warrant, stated she KNEW IT WAS MISSING.
LE would have been very interested in knowing it was missing PRIOR to her remains being found. after all, no information was provided to LE regarding 'what Cindy knew' as far as what Casey took of Caylee's from the home. SHE CLAIMED NOTHING. the claim is she left with the clothes on her back.
the hamper....speculation, but keeping with recognizing Cindy's knack for lying, I lean toward her knowing that was missing as well. and perhaps a few other things we have yet to know about.
not a murderer, however, she made several efforts to compromise the investigation of 'her missing grandchild'. withholding information that results in evidence (found with the remains) is/was aiding the only suspect LE had at the time which was:
a mother who never reported her child missing and then took LE on a wild goose chase within a few hours of the investigation.....
Cindy A decided to take LE on the same ride that Casey did.....*this is what Casey told me*....not, *this is what I know to be a lie because (fill in whatever she withheld from LE)* <----Cindy lied to investigators AND was on board with Casey lying to family services, another investigative body <----aiding and abetting......

I would not say that I'm "angry" with Cindy, but she is the master manipulator behind this tragedy.
She never held Casey accountable for any of her actions and the result was a young woman who thought she could murder her child and walk away from it knowing that mom would make it all better... the way she did with everything else she ever did in her life.
I think Cindy is the hated one because she produced the daughter the world knows. She raised her. She never dropped Casey on her head. Instead she brought up a twisted person. So, it speaks for itself.

This looks like harassment of the Judge to me, LOL. He will need to be working 24 hours a day to deal with all these Motions, but I know the defense has a perfectly legal right (and perhaps obligation) to do this. So, perhaps it will serve as a delay tactic, which I hear benefits the defense.

Thanks everyone for your opinions on why Cindy was supposed to be journaling. I find it interesting that nobody said that it might be due to any professional counseling that Cindy may be undergoing. I didn't really think that it was because a professional counselor wanted Cindy to be journaling either. ...but because Cindy saying that she wasn't keeping up with her journaling, I was waivering just a bit.
Wasn't it mentioned early on in the case that Cindy was in counseling and the counselor advised her to kick Casey out of the house?

IIRC, Cindy "saw a counselor," didn't like what the counselor advised her to do, and that was the end of that. My guesses?
Pick one:
Cindy saw a counselor exactly once
The counselor wasn't a professional but simply a friend or acquaintance who "counseled" Cindy
Cindy read an article or book suggesting tough love and spun that into "I saw a counselor"
Cindy made the whole thing up for no reason other than to demonstrate what a martyr she is to her cause (Casey)
I thought it was work-related counselor - in other words, free.

5. Cindy saw a counselor walking down the street and thought, "Oh, now I can say I saw a counsellor without having to lie."
Okay... scratch that one.
Ah, I remember something about that. She called the Employee Assistance Program phone line, maybe? At the prompting of her supervisor? Am I remembering correctly?
That's how I remember it. Through Cindy's work, so many FREE visits per year, maybe? But Cindy quit going, because she didn't like what she was advised to do.

Like most people, I felt compassion for the Anthonys in the beginning, especially when I heard about Cindy telling George in an anguished voice, "We've lost her. We've lost Caylee!" That had to have been unimaginable pain.
But immediately thereafter they began to pretend to be in denial of everything they knew to be the truth. I don't believe they were ever in denial. I think they knew the truth the instant they smelled the car. But then they immediately went into "circle the wagons" mode to cut their losses. They lost one "daughter" (remember Cindy considered Caylee her daughter), but they did not want to lose both daughters. I actually would never have criticized them for not wanting to lose both and would have felt great sympathy for them. But I do find fault with how they've gone about it. IMO, their actions have shown a lack of honesty, ethics, and morals. And their actions have revealed a great deal of character defects.
I think anyone should support a child in the kind of trouble Casey is in. If I was Casey's mother I would be there to support her in everything. I would be sitting on her side of the courtroom, I would be paying for her defense if I had the resources, I would be visiting her in jail, and I would be writing her letters telling her how much I care. But I would not lie to cover for her, I would not try to throw suspicion on any and everyone who's nearby, I would not hinder the search for my granddaughter (dead or alive) to give a potential jury a reasonable doubt, and I would not try to prevent my daughter from owning up to the responsibility of her own actions. As if all that were not enough, they then began to live off their own granddaughter's death and began preying on the suffering of others for their own profit.
Is it the public's fault the Anthonys are so vilified? It was their murdering daughter that made them famous. And it was their bizarre and outrageous behavior that made them infamous. Don't blame that on the innocent public. The Anthonys have vilified themselves by their own actions.
And as for the inference that the public is usurping God's right to judge the Anthonys, I leave it to God to judge whether they have the right to enter Heaven or Hell. But I reserve the right to have my own opinions on their actions while on this earth, and I deem their actions to be vile and inexcusable.

Quick question. In the press conference didn't Dr. G say they identified Caylee through DNA?
tia
Yes.
According to Dr. G, the FBI lab in Quantico matched nuclear DNA to known samples belonging to Caylee Anthony and made the match.

Yes, that is true, but IIRC, Cindy said she didn't agree with the counselor's opinions and refused to go back.

From the atrocious grammar and punctuation errors in the blog, I would suspect it was written by Cindy. And from the outright false content of the blog (such as it's statement that there is much speculation in the media about whether or not the remains found by Kronk is actually Caylee) reminds me considerably of Cindy's ideas. But I imagine there could be one or two more deluded souls in the world who might possess these same characteristics, so can't say for sure who it might be.

Thanks Imp, I didn't think we'd read those text msgs.

I am dubious that any motions were actually "filed" today because today is a court holiday. http://www.ninthcircuit.org/about/court_holidays/index.shtml
With regard to motions filed the day before Thanksgiving on November 25, 2009, the media probably has not been able to get a copy of those to analyze due to the court being closed on Thanksgiving and the Day After Thanksgiving.

Hi Sun!
Thanks for posting the new motions ... can't help but notice they were filed the day before a holiday ... they seem to like filing late on Fridays too
... hmmmm
In attempt to break down these into something I could understand, here are the ones that challenge the constitutionality of
921.141 Sentence of death or life imprisonment for capital felonies; further proceedings to determine sentence.--:
Florida Statute 921.141 (http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statuTes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0921/Sec141.HTM)
The defenses motions:
(1) to Declare Florida Statute Section 921.141 Unconstitutional
Under Ring vs. Arizona Ring vs Arizona (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_v._Arizona) Ring v. Arizona is a case in which the United States Supreme Court applied the rule of Apprendi v. New Jersey to capital sentencing schemes, holding that the Sixth Amendment requires a jury to find the aggravating factors necessary for imposing the death penalty. It struck down Arizona's judge-only method of imposing the death penalty
Apprendi v. New Jersey (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apprendi_v._New_Jersey)prohibited judges from enhancing criminal sentences beyond statutory maximums based on facts other than those decided by the jury beyond a reasonable doubt.
(2) Unconstitutional Because it Improperly Shifts Burdens of Proof to the Defendant, Thereby Creating a Presumption of Death
(3) Unconstitutional Due to its Failure to Narrow the Scope of the Death Penalty
Perhaps one of our legal eagles can help on this ... but to a lay person it sounds like Lyon is looking to change the laws .... Ring v. Arizona was a supreme court decision as was Apprendi v. New Jersey ...

I didn't intend the date/holiday correction in an insulting way. It doesn't take much imagination to picture Baez & co. taking advantage of the court being closed for a holiday - and consequently, the majority of the prosecution staff being gone and thus unavailable for refuting comments - to announce that the defense team had just filed a pile of fabulous motions that were going to crack this case wide open, prove Casey's innocence, nail the real culprit, etc.
I note that the titles of the various motions indicate a challenge to the constitutionality/applicability of the death penalty. If the defense team was really as convinced as they pretend to be that Casey will be acquitted of all charges concerning Caylee's death, then they wouldn't bother challenging the death penalty. I understand that they don't want a death-qualified jury to be seated because a death-qualified jury may be more likely to convict even if they choose not to impose the death penalty. However, they claim to have really convincing explanations for why Casey didn't bother to report Caylee as "missing," why Casey partied and got tattoos and did everything EXCEPT search for Caylee, why Casey's car smelled like a dead body, why Casey lied to her own mother about Caylee being missing, why Casey lied to law enforcement about her imagi-job, imagi-nanny, imagi-search etc., why Caylee's remains were discovered so close to the Anthony residence, why Caylee's skull was wrapped with the Anthonys' special rare duct tape, and so forth. I don't understand why those convincing explanations can't be disclosed during their TV show appearances - the Duke lacross team had good success getting their bogus rape charges dismissed after publicly disclosing their solid alibi evidence - but surely the defense team will be giving those convincing explanations to the jury at trial. So an acquittal is in the bag, right? And there isn't even a chance of a penalty phase, right? So they don't need to worry about the death penalty at all, right?

Here's my Cliff Notes version of the Motions to declare sections of 921.141 Unconstitutional
Sections:
(5)(d) Standard Instruction Unconstitutional Facially and as Applied and to Preclude their Application at Bar
(d) The capital felony was committed while the defendant was engaged, or was an accomplice, in the commission of, or an attempt to commit, or flight after committing or attempting to commit, any: robbery; sexual battery; aggravated child abuse; abuse of an elderly person or disabled adult resulting in great bodily harm, permanent disability, or permanent disfigurement; arson; burglary; kidnapping; aircraft piracy; or unlawful throwing, placing, or discharging of a destructive device or bomb.
(5)(h) Jury Instruction Unconstitutional Facially and as Applied
(h) The capital felony was especially heinous, atrocious, or cruel.
(5)(I) Unconstitutional and to Preclude its Use in the Present Case
(I)The capital felony was a homicide and was committed in a cold, calculated, and premeditated manner without any pretense of moral or legal justification.
(5)(L) Unconstitutional Facially and as Applied, and to Preclude its Use in the Case at Bar
(L)The victim of the capital felony was a person less than 12 years of age.
(5)(M) Unconstitutional Facially and as Applied (Victim Vulnerable Due to Age, Disability, or Familial or Custodial Authority)
(M)The victim of the capital felony was particularly vulnerable due to advanced age or disability, or because the defendant stood in a position of familial or custodial authority over the victim.
So WTH ?? Seems Lyon wants the aggravating circumstances that apply in this case to be thrown out ??? Is she crazy ??

for me its baffling. The court gives the jury instructions of the law. The jury DOES make a recommendation. the judge decides the sentence, and the jury recommendation has alot of weight. what the heck is she trying to do here?
florida recently revised the jury instruction for the DP. is she saying she wants to make sure the court will deliver the revised DP jury instruction? again, cart before the horse mentality that the presiding honorable would overlook the revision?

This actually seems like a fair request. The jury should not be speculating on what the judge will do after they make their recommendation. It would be unfair for the jury to vote for death with a justification along the lines of, "Well, we want to send a message that what Casey did was really bad so we will vote for the death penalty. We'll leave it up to the judge to decide if she really deserves it." It would be even more unfair if the judge then rubberstamps the jury's recommendation with a justification along the lines of, "Well, if I were a juror, I wouldn't have voted for death. However, there is no legal grounds to overrule the jury's recommendation." This is really just the flip side of the frequent prosecution request that the jury should not speculate on the potential sentence to be imposed, like in juvenile-tried-as-adult case of Lionel Tate where the jury later expressed amazement and regret that the 14 year old convicted of a murder committed when he was 12 had been sentenced to life imprisonment without possibility of parole. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_Tate (sentence overturned on other grounds, Tate committed additional offenses & is back in prison)

Good morning Everyone :seeya:
Sitting in my hubby's hospital room. He is asleep. I love WiFI.
Thinking...
I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was wonderful. Mine and Hubby's went Bust!
Hubby admitted to hospital Wednesday afternoon. Pancretitis we thought it was gastritis. Scary when you self diagnose yourself.
Very painful.
I was thinking about the comparison of my Thanksgiving and Casey's
even though I do have a conscience that she appears not to have.
Very lonely yesterday at lunch time,knowing that the family was all together and eating all the favorites the kids asked grandma to make.
It was sad that KC made a choice to put herself where she is at today and where Caylee is at is even sadder. Caylee is going on 5 and what a wonderful age that is.The holidays and children. What fun!
It was great when everyone came to the hospital yesterday afternoon to visit with us and know that they are supporting us and love us.
I can't believe KC chooses to live in solitude. It is a hopless place to be.
Without my family and my husband's family I would have been very scared Wednesday night without their support.
I don't know how KC stood up to the killing Caylee and then to face LE and never crack.
Just amazing how you can get to such a lonely place (in your head).
during the holidays.
Jeepers I am so sorry that is how you spent your thanksgiving.
My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. sara

This actually seems like a fair request. The jury should not be speculating on what the judge will do after they make their recommendation. It would be unfair for the jury to vote for death with a justification along the lines of, "Well, we want to send a message that what Casey did was really bad so we will vote for the death penalty. We'll leave it up to the judge to decide if she really deserves it." It would be even more unfair if the judge then rubberstamps the jury's recommendation with a justification along the lines of, "Well, if I were a juror, I wouldn't have voted for death. However, there is no legal grounds to overrule the jury's recommendation." This is really just the flip side of the frequent prosecution request that the jury should not speculate on the potential sentence to be imposed, like in juvenile-tried-as-adult case of Lionel Tate where the jury later expressed amazement and regret that the 14 year old convicted of a murder committed when he was 12 had been sentenced to life imprisonment without possibility of parole. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_Tate (sentence overturned on other grounds, Tate committed additional offenses & is back in prison)

Were you able to listen to Lyon's speech? The words "residual doubt" come into my mind. And yes, I'd say that Lyon is hoping to be able to use the word "kill" much like she described in her speech. JMO Isn't Lyon a bit premature with some of these motions?
Yes, I listen to it ... she has all kinds of sneaky ways around courtroom and procedure (some that are not allowed) and all kinds of ways of saying things in a way to the jurors to intimidate them into voting no to DP ...
That interview was very enlightening!

A question is sticking in the forefront of my mind and just won't go away. Re the murder case: It appears the defense wants to propose other scenarios/theories, and "consider that maybe Kronk did it" is the most recent deviation from the Nanny story. How in the world is the defense going to get away from the Nanny lies without putting Casey on the stand to testify/explain? It will require Baez, et al, to come up with new lies to cover that one if they hope to accomplish escaping the Nanny line.........but even so, how will they get it before a jury or even before the general public?
????? How in God's name did they come up with that one? I have been away alot lately, and I knew from their past actios that they were willing to put this murder of Caylee on anybody and everybody that they could, but the LAST thing I heard was that they "didn't want to dig up anything on Kronk because they knew how it was to be unfairly scrutinized" or something like that.....THEIR POSITIONS CHANGE AS MUCH AS THEIR TRUTHS CHANGE!!!
They can put Casey under oath but she will lie. The oath means nothing to her. I would love to see that, and to see just how she would handle herself in a cross-examination.

I am dubious that any motions were actually "filed" today because today is a court holiday. http://www.ninthcircuit.org/about/court_holidays/index.shtml
With regard to motions filed the day before Thanksgiving on November 25, 2009, the media probably has not been able to get a copy of those to analyze due to the court being closed on Thanksgiving and the Day After Thanksgiving. We'll probably hear all about them on Monday and even be able to read them for ourselves.

She wants to get rid of the "recommending" part... so that she can lay the blame directly on the jurors. Sheesh....

Even if Lyon's motives are improper, the request to delete the "advisory" and "recommendation" language is still a good one. The judge still has his same discretion not to follow a death penalty advisory/recommendation, same as he can grant a motion to dismiss at the close of the prosecution's case if he finds that no reasonable jury could convict or grant a mistrial or reduce a more serious charge to a lesser charge (i.e. a murder to a manslaughter). However, the jury should not be encouraged to speculate about what the judge might do, just like they are not supposed to speculate about what sentencing might follow their verdict, because that kind of speculation might improperly affect their deliberations.

what you refer to above has been recently amended. the jury is now being instructed accordingly.
however, what is NOT removed from the instructions: the law is: the jury RECOMMENDS and the trial judge deliberates on their recommendation. it must be made clear to the jurors what their role is and THAT lingo remains within florida's amended jury instructions for the death penalty. it is the judge's responsibility to make an INDEPENDENT decision based on their recommendation.
she wants the jurors to walk away without knowing the judge has the final say? she is asking FLORIDA, not the judge, to further amend their jury instructions.
its ridiculous and another wasteful motion.

I for one am not impressed with AL's at all. I thought she was someone who really beleived in her cause. Maybe she does really beleive, but at what cost? To let the guilty go free? To deny what they obviously did? It seems to me her only goal is to get Casey off death row and out of prison if she can and deny Caylee justice no matter what it costs.

Kronk is an important witness for the defense to discredit. He is the only one who saw Caylee's remains months before she was found. I just don't think they will be able to bring the ex-wives in to the case. It really is reaching, IMO.
Charges were dropped against Kronk. All the State would have to do is say Mr. Kronk, were you ever convicted of doing any harm to your ex? No, charges were dropped and I was never indicted because there was no evidence.
I don't understand how the defense thinks they are going to get this in by claiming it would show a crime that was similar to Caylee's murderer. A daughter saying that he walked in on her a few times or took pictures of her with animals isn't going to pass the test. Duct taping an ex even is not a crime against a child. And he was never convicted of any wrong doing.

ITA kakax!
As far as I can see, trying to smear Kronk isn't going to fly at all, because all the prosecution has to do is remind the jury that Casey claimed right from the beginning (well, right after the initial 31 days of non-reporting) that invisi-nanny took Caylee. If the defense is dumb enough to try to link Kronk to a person who doesn't exist, they are just going to look ridiculous, and even worse, like they think the jurors are stupid. Good luck with that, Baez, LKB, Lyon et al. :sneaky:

I agree Scamp...but since the Defense can't discuss anything that they aren't going to have evidence for, I think they can't list Kronk if he won't be used and his wives and that younger girl if they won't be used in court. And so I don't think it's coming in. I think they are doing it now to taint the jury pool. And it seems to be having the opposite effect. People are up in arms concerning them trying to ruin Kronk's life and anything from AL that she can't offer evidence of. I could be wrong, but it happened in the Spector case and since the prosecution wasn't going to mention it, then the defense couldn't either, in opening statements, the trial or closing statements.

I have always been concerned about Cain holding a grudge against the OCSD for firing him and testifying positively for the defense. I hope he doesn't do that because the truth is he failed to investigate properly.

~~~She says she never received a call back, then says she does not have her mother....Wouldnt you have to call her first to get a call back??

I know its a huge waste........but she tells one lie after another and expects LE to say, oh well Ms Anthony, i am so sorry your daughter is missing, you did a really good job trying to find her. Now, you just go on back to your job and lets hope the nanny turns Caylee in when she is tired of caring for her.......
I do not think that kc realized, and probably still does not how messed up she is.......this whole thing is....
