Do you think Casey Anthony is getting special treatment? If so, why? If not, why?

She has more attorneys than we have listed in our yellow pages.

That's a good one, Zeus! That's just for starters. Let's hear some more.

My answer is yes, she is getting spcial treatment.

In my viewpoint as a parent, people who kill babies deserve immediate death.

The fact she is still alive is special treatment.

I'm not seeing KC having any special treatment yet. I feel JB is trying to get special treatment for his client. Just look at KC, pale, becomming wider and wider, sqirming in tight close, on a sugar high that could be making her so hyper and she can't escape. As far as the officers listening in to the classroom, it seems no different than mental health workers checking in on pts. with their psychiatrist. I'm alittle stunned by TU recollection of KC being treated cruely on the day LE recovered her daughters bones. I would like a better account of why she felt this. We are talking about a criminal not a guest of the jail. I would love to be in on KC first pow pow with Ms. L. Those two female defense lawyers I feel are wanting to make KC appear that she is no longer, "Poor me". The days are long gone from the waif of a girl who always needed someone to manipulate are over, I hope, We'll see! JB may be the only one left she can use her femine ways with. Shout out to all the single guys that didn't put a ring on a finger of KC. We will see how JG fares.

Great post, Mort_Snerd! I agree with you. Casey does not deserve to be alive. She whines about everything being taken from her, and that her whole life was taken from her. Not once has she thought about the fact that Caylee's whole life was taken from her! Everything was "taken" from Caylee, and yet Casey continues to sit on her worthless behind and stuff her greedy, self-centered face in Jail. She continues to enjoy the attention she's getting while little Caylee has been forgotten. As far as good people are concerned, Caylee will never be forgotten.

Good post, kageykaren! Casey is supposedly indigent, and the taxpayers will be footing the bill for her defense. How then is she entitled to all those high priced attorneys? I think that is most definitely special treatment.

[trich]

Personally I think Cindy and George are the ones being given special treatment.
Everything to them is for show and to try and make people believe
in their lies and deceptions.
Accusing others of what they most certainly know their daughter did.
Casey is where she belongs , locked up, as long as she stays locked up I am fine.....I want her to live her life out in the general population of the prison system. she is pure EVIL.

Don't get me started with the money trail that may be affording this defense team. I'm not aware of KC being declared as indigent at this time. JB had an in camera meeting with the judge about how the defense was being paid and I believe it is sealed and the judge did not see a conflict of interest. Don't quote me on that last statement. I need to get the court ruling in trnascript to remember its entirety. If tax payers end up paying the defense team, I hope all indignent criminals being tried for murder scream to the roof tops that they want the same form of repusentation. Like that will ever happen. Seriously why have these educated men and women stuck to this case like velcro? I don't see what possible pay off all them get. Is it really about the blood sweat and tears of a job well done? Could it be for recognition? (I think not) , the royalties one may be offered in a book deal? These answers seem much to common of a pat answer. It appears to me that their is an undertone stirring beneath the surface that will arise to explain away such a form legal loyalty Seeing JB appearing like Whimpy of Popeye fame, "I'll gladly pay you Tues for your help with the defense today," just doesn't seem to sit right.

I tend to agree.
I really don't see where CAsey's being treated differently or better than her jailmates but I do think Cindy and George are playing the pity card and it gets them more leeway than anyone else would get.

Great post, trich! Personally, I think that since Casey is so vain, she should have her head shaved. Since she is so selfish & greedy, she should be given her favorite food for breakfast, lunch, & dinner for the rest of her life. That's just for starters. At least she would still be breathing, unlike her poor little daughter, Caylee.

Great post, kageykaren! I heard on both the Nancy Grace Show, and Issues with Jane Velez Mitchell about Casey being declared indigent so that the taxpayers could end up paying for her defense. Casey & her attorney have much in common. They both know how to abuse the system.

Abuse and flagrantly try to manipulate the system. Out of three attorneys KC could choose from, of course she was going to pick a male she thought she could manipulate. We can see where that decision has gotten her so far. These two fruitcakes are going to ex each other out straight to the penn. LKB & Ms. L are going to need life jackets to wade through sludgey muck of discovery. <3

Thank you for your opinion. Based on what I've heard on the Nancy Grace Show, if Casey is declared indigent and the taxpayers are footing the bill for her defense, she should not be entitled to all those high priced attorneys. In my opinion, she is receiving special treatment. She should be in the general population with the other prisoners. That again, is receiving special treatment. She isn't better than any of the other prisoners. Not by a long shot.

Great post, kageykaren! I completely agree with you. Casey sees everyone as "targets" or "prey", most especially men. Look at how she manipulates her dad & brother. Look at how easily she manipulated Jessie Grund. How sad for him that he was so completely fooled by her. That being said, what kind of people defend someone like Casey?

It's not really "special treatment." Casey is being treated the same as other prisoners who are accused of similar crimes. I agree with you that "she isn't better than any of the other prisoners;" to the contrary, it is the worst prisoners (child molesters, people who murder children, serial killers, etc.) who are kept segregated from the general population. When she is convicted and sentenced to death, she will continue to be held separate from the general population, alone in a cell on Death Row.

While I understand what you're saying, Katprint, I can't agree on this one. Being held in protective custody is special treatment. All prisoners should be housed together. That would be equal treatment, in my opinion. Casey gets far more time with her attorneys than most other prisoners. When she was on "house arrest", look at how much time she spent in her attorney's office! At least that's the way it certainly appears from what we've seen since the beginning of this case.

A friend of mine from high school represented Donald Beardslee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Beardslee in his death penalty appeals. I understand he spent a lot of time with Beardslee especially shortly before Beardslee's execution in 2005.

The amount of time that an attorney spends with his client is limited by the attorney (rarely the client refuses to see the attorney), not by the jail/prison facility. Most attorneys don't want to spend 8-10 hours per day with a single client, particularly if that client is not paying them. Most attorneys simply can't financially afford to because they have to pay the rent, pay staff salaries, pay office expenses, and have a little left over to live on themselves.

Seriously, you can't take what you hear on NG's show as accurate either. NG is in it for the ratings.

You seem familiar to me, because, you sound just like another poster who was here only to argue. Trying to intimidate another person because they don't agree with you is also a "control factor". Child killers should not be protected. Children are the ones who need protecting, not the other way around. Anyone in prison who is suspected of killing a child should not be kept separate from the other prisoners. As far as I'm concerned, Nancy Grace cares about "victims", and is not in it for the ratings. I don't agree with your opinion. Let's just leave it at that, because, I'm not interested in arguing. Just because two people don't agree, it doesn't mean that one is wrong and the other one is right. As opinions differ, so do people.

Great post, Katprint! I understand what you're saying. However, I still believe that Casey is receiving special treatment. By that I mean, anyone who is in prison and they are suspected of harming a child in any way should not be kept separate from other prisoners. Children are the ones who should be protected, not the ones suspected of harming them. Child murderers, child predators, & child abusers should never be protected. In my opinion, all prisoners should be housed together.

That's correct. I was able to see any of the criminal clients that I represented at any time during normal hours in the jails. Family visits and other personal visits are regulated closely and generally only permitted during normal visiting hours but the attorneys are usualy exempt from such restrictions. Of course, it makes no sense for any attorney to spend a long time with such a client for the reasons you set forth. Attorneys need to earn a living too and you can't do it over at the jail.

The only times I would need to see a client in jail would be to have them sign papers or explain the status of their case and if they needed to make a decision. This would usually amount to no more than an hour or so, not more. From what I've read JB and others seem to spend a lot of time with CA. Perhaps that's their style but it won't pay the light bill.

Blackbird, you're absolutely correct.
Casey is in custody right now, and the state is responsible for her.
If an inmate kills her, the state will be held responsible.
Casey, at the moment is not a convicted killer, she's a suspect waiting for trial.

I don't see "special treatment", she's not the only inmate being held in protective custody.

Casey's, as any other inmate, has the right to see her attorney.

My experience with clients in jail is basically the same as yours. Also, from time to time I have taken depositions in prison; those were during normal business hours and the prison staff was very accommodating as far as not setting any time limits in advance although most depositions don't last more than a few hours anyway.

I think Casey probably hung out in Baez' conference room watching TV, playing video games or whatever while he worked on other cases at his desk. (Presumably his "law firm" - himself and his junior partner who has been admitted for only two years, compared to Baez' whopping three years - does have other cases to work on. Hopefully the entire financial burden of Baez' vanity is not being carried along on the back of his wife and whatever she might be earning at her job.) I doubt Baez was in there with her all day, every day.

I don't think Baez spent or currently spends that kind of 8-10 hours per day time down at the jail. I vaguely remember seeing a link to jail sign-in sheets at one point, and it seemed like he spent a couple hours here and a couple hours there at the jail, probably about 4-6 hours per week which would be consistent with discussing ongoing case developments with her as more and more incriminating evidence was discovered. However, this is only a vague recollection and I might be wrong.

[girlspell]

She has a cell for herself, so that in a way would be special treatment. She gets more money to spend in jail then anyone else. But that's because people send her money. In a way, she has a good life. She's taken care of, well fed, free medical and dental, plenty of sleep with lots of books to read. What more do you want? So right now, she has it good. Further down the road, different story.

Until CA receives a long-term living situation in prison it wouldn't be all that unusual to have her in a cell alone. This is often done by the authorities for security purposes and personal safety since others might wish to harm her, especially considering her notoriety and the distasteful nature of the crime. As I'm sure you know, child killers are often targeted by others. At the present time, other than sharing a cell, she is in jail and is getting the same privileges as the other prisoners.

Once she is convicted and sent to a regular prison, I would expect that she would share a cell or a room with one or more other prisoners. That is unless she were to violate some rule or have bad behavior and get put into the Security Housing Unit (SHU) for disciplinary purposes.

[Dells]

I personally don't think that Casey is getting special treatment at this point in time. Yes, she is in protective custody, but that is because this case has reached international proportions and if something were to happen to her, the state of Florida would be held responsible. They are just being extra careful w/her.

I do think, however, that George and Cindy are getting some special treatment by some members of the press that perhaps want to stay on their good side so that they can get exclusives when the time comes, and I also think that LE is giving them some special treatment because from my point of view they should have already been charged w/obstruction of justice, tampering w/evidence, lying to LE, etc. Maybe LE is just biding their time and they are planning to charge The Anthony's after the trial? If The Anthony's are never charged w/anything, then I think it is just like giving a free pass to other families that it is okay to cover for the criminals in their family. I know The Anthony's lost a granddaughter, but I do not think it gives them the right to break the law.

I do think Casey is getting special treatment from her parents, despite how horribly she is appearing to treat them. I guess The Anthony's have always treated Casey w/kid gloves so nothing has really changed in that family.

But if they wait until Casey is tried, it may be too late to prosecute the Anthonys. If so, I think that's a shame. They are covered with Teflon. I can't understand it. There have been two criminal complaints about them of which I am aware, when George pushed the old lady in the street and now a few days ago after the chase. (Leonard Padilla said he was on the phone with Lois when the chase started so he knows what happened. He told Lois to dial 911.)
"The sensitivity of the investigation," what a crock. I guess all of the Anthonys are very sensitive people. Sure, like a bulldozer.

While it's true that there is a statute on limitations on any alleged crimes that the Anthonys may have committed, I'm quite sure that the authorities are aware of that and could file any cases at the last day if necessary. In any case, the actions of the Anthonys pale in comparison to what their daughter may have done.

There must be many people in Orlando on trial or awaiting trial who have committed crimes other than murder and they are being prosecuted. Why not the Anthonys if they have committed crimes? I hope that the authorities are keeping the statute of limitations in mind, but at this point I have little or no faith in the Orlando authorities.

Prosecution need the Anthony's to testify against their daughter at her trial.
If they are charged with a crime, they will plead the fifth, because they don't want to incriminate them self.
I'm sure their lawyer make sure of that.

Bolding mine....

So true, but my biggest concern is that The Anthony's actions are going to help get Casey an acquittal for a crime that I think she is totally and completely responsible for. If that happens it would be a travesty and a miscarriage of justice.

[sammy62]

I think we need to remember that Casey is still innocent until proven Guilty. We may think she is guilty, but she deserves to be protected in jail until her trial. Who knows what may come out yet. Maybe that crab *** Cindy did it all along.

No mother who is not involved in the disappearance of her child would allow 31 days to pass without reporting it. Let's remember that Casey didn't even report Caylee missing. Cindy is the one who called 911. Those are not the actions of an innocent person.

You are extremely immature if you need to criticize my right to expression. The fact that you are personally attacking me shows that you are not here because you are interested in this case. Read my signature, ugh - because, you have proven my point. I'm not here to argue with you, or anyone else. I have the right to my opinion. If you don't like it, you have the option of not reading my posts. By the same token, I have the option to "ignore" you. Therefore, from now on, please consider yourself "ignored".

Casey is getting special treatment which started when LE allowed her to spend 6-8 hours a day in her attorney's office when she was out on bond. Everyone knows that he was not discussing the case with her all day, every day. She would call in and ask to stay longer with Baez and she was allowed to do it. Whatever they were doing.

Also, it is customary for inmates to appear in jail attire when they are called to court for pre-trial hearings. It is usually only when a jury is present that they wear regular clothing. Casey struts in in blouses which are too tight and what appears to be Baez' pants. I think the judge was right in requiring her presence at these hearings, but not in allowing her civilian clothing. She should wear the jumpsuit like everyone else. We don't know what goes on daily in the jail, but I suspect Casey has manipulated herself in to a sweet deal of some kind during her incarceration.

IMO the whole bunch should be in jail.

Excellent post, MyCharlie! Keep them coming! I completely agree with everything you've said. It really makes you wonder why anyone would defend someone like Casey Anthony. She has no morals, and cares for no one except herself. She's a user, and a con-artist. All prisoners should be housed together. Extra cameras should be installed in strategic places so that jail officials will know what's going on at all times, day or night. Instead of lounging around all day watching TV, stuffing her face, and sitting on her lazy butt, Casey should be made to work ~ just like all the other prisoners. She is, most definitely receiving "special treatment".

Great post, Dells! I agree with most of what you've said. Casey should be put to "work" just like all the other prisoners. She certainly is no better than anyone, and doesn't deserve anything special. Wait until reality hits her between the eyes.

Humor me - I don't understand the question either. She is in jail, awaiting trial. One murderer, recently convicted, spent 5 years out on bail - now that is what I would call special treatment

Casey is allowed to lounge around all day stuffing her face, watching TV, and basically sitting on her lazy butt. She should be put to work just like any other prisoner. I'll say it again. In my opinion, Casey Anthony is getting "special treatment". We all know she's allergic to "work", but, that's beside the point. She's in prison for a reason. She's not there on vacation.
