Casey Anthony's Unexpected Jailhouse Visitor

July 28, 2008

On July 24, Casey Anthony received a suprise visit from Patrick Bourgeois, a man who claimed to attend high school with her. Casey had trouble remembering who he was and had little to say during their conversation, which lasted less than 2-minutes.

Okay, seriously, am I the only one that finds it really STRANGE that she can't remember this person yet when he says "hung out with Mike Walker"...she says "okay" in a very nonchalant way? I think this was a cryptic way for someone to let her know that they aren't gonna spill the beans ("we are still on your team") Hmmmmmmmmm

[BT]

I think the same thing, if not maybe he was visiting as a warning,letting her know in a cryptic way that they are serious about hurting the baby if she opens her mouth. No matter what the outcome,she is a rotten, nasty person.

[Oceanlover]

My feeling about this is, was this guy a classmate, or maybe somebody trying to gain her trust. Hoping that maybe he could get some info. from Cassie. ie "If there's anything you need or want to talk about, just let me know".

[this n that...]

ok this visitor said his name was: Patrick Bourgeois
I did a web search for that name got this:
http://www.city-data.com/forum/florida/14202-sw-florida-home-builders-question.html

they are builders in ROTANDA ?Florida

[Heath]

Listen to the VERY END after they have hung up....you can here her say "now I know who this kid is"...you have to listen very carefully...turn up your volume.

How did she "remember" so fast with no additional information given. Is it just me or did she sound relieved when he said "we are STILL on your TEAM"...if she does not know who he is...what does he mean?

According to Intelius:

G. Patrick Bourgeois is 54...he would be too old to have gone to school with her. (If what he says is true)

Also Accourding to Intelius:

There is a Patrick S. Bourgeois age 22 that has two know addresses...one in Oralando and one in St. Cloud.

I would think this second person is most likely him

Just my 2 cents worth.

This 22 year old also has a Myspace with pictures of Caylee on it.

I viewed the visitor log - pdf file that is on one of the local news websites, because from the moment I first saw the video of the visit, it seemed odd to me. It seems like as soon as he mentions the name Mike, she does casually remember. Something about this visit just seems odd to me, so when I found the name Patrick Bourgeois and googled it, I found out about a whole other story about a little boy named PJ Bourgeois whose father (Patrick also) and mother or girlfriend had tortured and killed him. He was only 3 years old. I'm not sure how accurate/true the visitor log is, but I don't think this is a coincidence. I think Casey's visitor Patrick was only a messenger, and is somehow speaking in code. Seriously, what are the chances that Casey just happened to go to school with someone of the same name with a similar story? This is all so very sad and I hope the investigators are somehow on the right track. Another thing, is that the visitor log also listed the name Frank Bourgeois - but beside his name it says "DID NOT SHOW". Hmm...

[heathbrown]

The story you found I also read. Only problem...this child was killed in 1996...that would make this Patrick (the one who visited her) only 8 years old at the time. So if you are thinking he is the one who killed his son....then that would be impossible.

[PJA]

I think he is Caylee's biological father.

[grandma]

You should go to criminal searchs.com and type in this Patrick's name. It's free for basics. There is one that would be about the same age as her.
Someone said on another blog that it seemed like she was talking in code with her brother also. I do think that there is some conection with this guy and the other one mentioned.
This is all so weird!
I sure hope they find this child alive. She didn't ask to be born.
I'm a grandmother of a 2 year old and to try to describe how much I love her and my kids would take to long.

[Lorrie Smith]

I can't believe the arrogance of the grandmother Cindy. She always has something smart to say to the reporters and as she is finishing up her news spot she has something ignorant and smart to say. She has been saying negative things about the police handling this case from the get-go. I think she knows something. I also have to laugh at the jailhouse phone calls. Casey is so distant and matter of fact in them and has hardly ever mentioned her daughter. Cindy said on Larry King that she thinks that someone who loves Caylee took her because they wanted her and Casey says she can't say much because her family is in danger. This whole family is WHACKO.
The father was supposed to be a policeman....he is so far out in left field it's not funny. I hope that this girl Casey gets what's coming to her. I think the little girl is dead. How can another missing little girl be found in a week, whose picture has been out there all the time, who people are noticing and reporting it and Caylee can't be found....that tells me that no one is seeing her which means she is dead. I think the whole family are liars.

[Rebecca King]

I know this makes me sick to my stomache. Casey, you are one sick human. This remindes me of the story, about the mother that shot her three kids cause her boyfriend said he didn't want kids, did you notice everything was fine, then she moved out of Mom's house in with her precious Tony, and then Caylee is missing, he probably said, oh she's cute, but I didn't want kids, well all she cares about is this Tony, Tony Tony and who he? I think Caylee is dead, poor child, why didn't she let Mom, granma have her, my heart aches for this little girl, i wanted a daughter so bad, if one of my kids were missing why i'd have a nervous breakdown.

[kerri fales]

This is one of the strangest cases I have heard of, and it just keeps getting worse. Casey Anthony just seems way to calm to have a child missing. I have not heard too much about the "babysitter". As far as I am aware of she has never been located. How could a mother just drop her child off with someone, and not basically know anything about the woman, and I have read somewhere that she could not even pin point the home of the babysitter. I am a mother of three and I could not imagine letting a month go by before I reported them missing. Psychologists on tv, say well everyone reacts different, which is true to an extent but come on!! Any person with common sense can figure out this mother knows way more that she is saying, she knows where her child is at, and whether she is dead or alive. I just pray there is a break in this case soon, or I feel we will never know where Caylee Anthony is.

[April]

Lorrie Smith.... the woman who shot her 3 kids... Anne Rule wrote a book about it called "Small Sacrafices" I was 14 years old when I read that book, first book I had ever finished reading... They also made a movie about titled the same as the book which starred Farrah Fawcett... People have killed for LESS... I hope justice is served!

HI...

I have been following story about Casey Anthony and her daughter Caylee, since it first aired on "Nancy Grace. I too, am a single parent of two boys ages 17 & 21. If anything had happened to one of them, they know I would have to be put in a straight jacket and then put in a padded room. I would go crazy!! This Casey has done nothing but lie, lie, lie and tell more lies. You can read between the lines so easy with this mother. First she has NO IDEA where Caylee is and now because its her birthday, she tells her Dad she is safe, is close to home and will be at home for her 3rd beautiful.

This Casey has some serious, serious problems and I think may slowly begin to realize this. As for where Caylee is.....I think she is dead and have fault this way since first seeing the story.

I feel, so sorry for that innocent girl Caylee, as her mother would rather party and drink. What a Shame!!!

Give her some truth serum, pass her some connebenol' she will spill her beans. Other countries get the truth one way or another, in cases like this even torture would be a vote I'd peg. The child is missing, the mother is not 'bizzerk out of her mind crazy searching and screaming in her sleep" she hurt this child, and I do not believe for a moment she is alive. I am a parent and have 4 kids, the oldest is grown, and trust me when your child is in pain, you can not sleep. when your child is out late, you worry out of your mind. Unfortunately the vagina and the womb is utilized by women other than mothers. This girl is no mother, she has no soul and can't even cry for her missing child. Very disturbed person. Poor little girl never had a chance in the hands of the monster(s), and I don't believe she acted alone. Remember the mom beating the stuffing out of her kid in walmart's parking lot, some of them just want the kid to go away so they can party.

[heathbrown]

In the first call Casey made to het mother she said she needed to talk to tony and MIKE! A few days later this "stranger" shows up and says he used to "hang with mike"...anyone else find that VERY ODD!!!!!

As soon as he says MIKE her voice changes as if the name "mike" is code.

[Cathy]

very odd indeed,ive followed this case since day 1 and i just saw that guys pic in her online pics on someones page. im not 100% certain but id bet on it,atleast if it isnt hes a lost twin,uncanny! where can a person post a tip!!!

[Mary]

I haven't really been following this case daily, but every once in a while I hear this poor girl Caylee is still missing. The first time I heard it, I really thought the mom was nuts and I figured they would have her talking in no time. Let alone the grandparents. The whole family just sounded off in some way. I have no children of my own, but I do have 2 beautiful nieces, and if ever something like this were to happen, my sister in law, brother, and my parents as grandparents would go nuts. I, as an aunt would kill to find them. I would put my sister in law up against the wall and pull her hair or teeth out to get some kind of reaction out of her. How can they not get this crazy woman to talk? All in all, who is this girl's dad anyway? Does he not have a voice in any of this? This all sounds like some kind of mystery novel of some sort. What is going on here? I just don't understand how it all got this far without any real answers.

[Lynne]

WHO CARES???! That is all you people have to do with this case? Patrick whoever?? so what...he's 22 he lives in orlando, maybe moved to st. cloud...he went to school with her..who cares?? Lets talk about the dead body that was sitting in her trunk in the florida heat while she was trying to figure a good location to bury it. She had 31 days to figure a place that no one will find. Thats a long time to figure out the perfect crime.

[tinydancer]

This is ridiculous. Plain and simple. I'm completely and utterly baffled by the BS this "woman" has sputtered. I am 22 and my husband and I have been trying desperately for a miracle as I have a very rare chance of conceiving. I don't agree with those that say this girl is a puppetmaster deceiving everyone. I think the detectives on this case will surely find out what they need to know because it's not that hard to crack a crazy woman. I think she was stuck in the drug business, owed some money, someone took a precious child and is now threatening her life. This, honestly, is movie-script material, and sounds horriby fantastic, but no matter the outcome, no matter what the truth is, this woman has little or no regard for her own flesh and blood!!! It's just plain gross and sick how little she cares! We would give anything to be able to have a child of our own so this case, as well as every other case of child abandonment or parental murder just makes me more and more sad. Not to be on a pity-pot or anything, but really... how does a girl like that deserve to experience the joy of pregnancy, birth, and rearing that a woman like myself will probably NEVER get to experience firsthand? My advice to casey: you may as well tell the truth. Even if you don't, you're gonna burn in hell. Next time you get pregnant, i hope the labor is just as long as the amount of time you've let us worry about YOUR little girl... the one most women wish they were able to have. That's why we invented adoption you skank! sorry... I'm bitter =(

[larry Pellegrino]

As a retired police officer I can not believe that George Anthony can believe his daughter. When he was an active officer had someone told him a story like his daughter has he would have laughed in their face.

How far does a parent go to protect a child unless you have the misfortune to go through what George has you will never know. However when this is over and it will be over at some point in time George and his wife must get on with their lives they have a son and will have hopefully more grandchildren. And they should be left alone to do so.

The old saying the son pays for the sins of the father can be reworded the parents should not pay for the sins of the daughter.

[mark mcallister]

Mary....they will find caylee....It's a matter of time. Theres too many people on this right now for nothing to happen.

[Deb]

LETS LOOK AT THE ANTHONY FAMILY WITH EYES WIDE OPEN:

The Anthony family with the Matriarch, Cindy, sitting at the head of the table, has worked very hard to represent themselves as a vision of the model American family. Cindy, an all American girl working a very respectful career as a nurse, marrying the all American guy who upholds the law and two all American kids. There is nothing wrong with that and they need to be commended because for the most part, they have always tried to put their right foot forward. But as with all of us, there are skeletons in the closet. I think Casey has been on the verge of destroying their hard earned reputation for some time and has probably been that skeleton that the Anthony family has a hard time controlling. I also think there are some other skeletons in the closet that Casey is using as ammunition to keep her family (and friends) in check. I have a few theories on what that those things might be but I’m not ready to go there yet but I do think that, at least in Casey’s mind, she has been “damaged” in her past at the hands of others and makes threats of exposure to her family and friends. The family is worried at what Casey might do should they pull their support. They may have convinced themselves that “just maybe” this will work out but I think it is more that they know that they have lost something precious to them and nothing in this world is ever going to make that right and at this point, all they have to do is to lose more and they just can’t deal with anymore loss right now. Casey Anthony sees no reason to talk to anyone and I would be willing to bet that any talking she does do it will reflect that none of this is HER FAULT, there will be others to blame. This is why no one wants to get any more involved in this thing. One thing is for sure, Casey has no reason (other than humanity or remorse, which she lacks) to tell “the truth”. Right now she is puppeteer and she has everyone dangling and holding their breath. This is the best possible scenario Casey can have herself in right now. Still controlling. If she talks, someone’s world will shatter (other than Caylee). Casey, for what ever reason, is a very dangerous person. She is very calculated and her life has been pretty much premeditated. Everything that she has done was intentional and she feels very justified for it. She went to great extremes to pull off another Casey Anthony. One that went to college, worked at Universal, has friends she worked with at Universal that referred her to “Zanny the Nanny”, the addresses this Nanny lived, staging emails for herself to appear that they came from Universal and the list goes on and on. There needs to be an entirely new approach to this thing or it is going to become a cold case and Casey wins.

[Barbie]

There is alot that doesn't fit, as controlling as Cindy is,
there is no way Caylee had a nanny for four years (even though she's only three) without "Grandma" knowing her and if she did, who paid for it, aren't there any canceled checks to the so-called nanny? Also, I don't believe the story about Caylee's biological dad being dead. I think Casey has no idea who her father is, my God since Caylee has been missing she has had three boyfriends, she must have slept with have of Flordia. Was there never a bond between
Casey and her Mom?

[jerri smith]

I have read so many comments on this and to some extent all to me have hit the hot spots. I think we all are thinking on the same lines and Mark Mcallister you are really on my line of thinking ---there is something hanging and dangling with
Casey. Everyone IS too protective with her and she knows this but the truth will come out no matter what-- it will come out. Right now this gal is loving the attention (she craves this) you can see her expressions and movements toward the camera (SHE IS ON PARADE). She will never crack that heart of hers is tooooooooo cold to melt!!!!!!!!!!
Casey Anthony did not get this way a month ago or a year ago this girl has been like this for many years. When her own attorney tells her not to talk what do you expect? I believe
she would knock the baby out with drugs or a drug --sure that was the perfect baby sitter in her way of thinking.
I noticed that Caylee was very hyper in the film with her great grandfather--her little hands moved fast and she seemed nervous--course that could not be the case but I thought that.
I doubt Casey knows who the father of Caylee is or perhaps she does know and chooses not to disclose due to not wanting to hurt her mother---those two are closer than one thinks --Cindy knows her and protects her --she always has and always will no matter what!!!!!!!!!!George and Lee know as Cindy but the guys know better than to say anything for fearing of hurting CINDY not Casey. That family is torn apart and I believe it was torn before this but their problems were smoothed over and pushed under the rug so many times now it's time to face the music----All dirty laundry will be aired before this case is over. My prayers are for them.I truly hope the Anthonys read these comments--If by now they aren't aware of how people are thinking and feeling about what Casey has done something is verrrrrrrrrrry wrong!!!!!
How can anyone dispute FORENSIC SCIENCE!!!!!
Tax payers in Flordia-- how could you not be upset about this case!!!!

[Barbie]

I can't believe with all the evidence out there that the
Anthony's believe that Caylee is still alive. (George being
a former cop and Cindy being in the medical field) Why are
they not furious with Casey for harming their grandchild,
why do they need to protect her. If my daughter killed
my grandchild, I would be mad as hell, I wouldn't be paying
her cell phone bill or letting her live under my roof. I
would also want my granddaughter to have a proper burial.
Don't these people have any respect for the dead, they
would prefer that Caylee lay out in the open being ravaged
by animals just to protect Casey!!! Did they ever really
love Caylee? Not as much as they love Casey and her lies!!

They also made a movie about titled the same as the book which starred Farrah Fawcett... People have killed for LESS... I hope justice is served!"

Uh, it was Diane Downs who shot her three kids and Ann Rule wrote the book "Small Sacrifices" about. I only posted to correct this because I know a Lorrie Smith and this blog comes up when you google her name. Diane Downs is serving a life sentence, she killed one child, paralized her son, and injured the other daughter seriously as well. And like Casey, she enjoyed the drama of the case. She still says it was a bushy haired stranger who did the shooting, and guess what? Her FATHER believs her as well. He has a website about it. Scott Peterson's mother still believes he's innocent as well. Cindy... well, Cindy is a nutjob. She shouldn't have been allowed to breed, let alone allowing her daughter to do so too. Casey needed to be an adult and give her up for adoption. Cindy needed to see it wouldn't make Casey grow up and allowed it.

[Went To School With Her]

I have searched all of my high school and middle school year books that Casey and I were in and we graduated the same year. There is no Patrick Bourgeois or Mike Walker. Not even a few years ahead of us or behind us. They never went to Colonial.

[Bobbie Davis]

I feel very sure George & Cindy loved Caylee. Why would anyone say they didn't. They also love their daughter. Don't judge a mother or father for anthing unless you have walked in their shoes. You don't know what you will do when something like this happens to you. Sure you say I would do this and that, but when it comes down to you, what would you do if you thought your child would be put to death.Sure you know what they did was not right, but Casey is their only child. They have already lost Casey to life in prision I'm sure. They don't want to loose her to death. Also I think it is clear that Casey has a mentle problem. No one in their right mind would hurt their child. I think George, Cindy and Lee needs PRAYER to make it through this. Also Casey needs PRAYER for whatever is going on in her mind. The wourld needs to PRAY for all of them.

[bradwsm]

The Patrick Bourgeois that visited Casey IS NOT the same person as G.Patrick Bourgeois and Assoc. Inc. in Rotonda Fl.
