Casey Anthony's Top Ten Alleged Lies
August 18, 2008
Alleged Lie #1 - On or around June 9, Casey told her parents that she had arranged for Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez to babysit Caylee so she could go on a business trip as a requirement of her employment with Universal Studios. She later changed her story and stated that she was going on a short vacation with friends. Meanwhile, Casey told her friends that Caylee had gone on a vacation with her babysitter.
Alleged Lie #2 - Casey offered a variety of explanations with regard to Caylee's whereabouts until July 15 when she claimed that her daughter had been abducted by her babysitter approximately 31 days prior to that date.
Alleged Lie #3 - Casey told investigators that she had not seen Caylee since June 9 when she dropped her off with her babysitter. However, when they went to the apartment complex in which Fernandez-Gonzalez reportedly lived, investigators discovered that the apartment had been vacant for several months.
Alleged Lie #4 - Casey told investigators that Fernandez-Gonzalez had also lived at a complex on North Hillside Drive. However, when they went to the location, they discovered that it was a senior living facility.
Alleged Lie #5 - Casey told Investigators that Fernandez-Gonzalez's mother lived in The Crossings at Conway, a community in Orlando. However, when they went to the community, they were unable to find anyone who knew an individual with the last name Fernandez-Gonzalez.
Alleged Lie #6 - Casey gave investigators the name of a woman who she said was a roommate of Fernandez-Gonzalez. Casey reported that the woman worked as a waitress at T.G.I. Friday’s. However, when they spoke with the manager of the restaurant, they learned that no such person had been employed there.
Alleged Lie #7 - Casey told investigators that she worked at Universal Studios. However, the company had no record of her employment. When investigators took Casey to Universal Studios so that she could show them where she worked, she finally admitted that she was not an employee of the company.
Alleged Lie #8 - Casey told investigators that she had received a call from Caylee on July 15. However, when they subpoenaed her telephone records, they found no evidence to support her claim.
Alleged Lie #9 - Casey told investigators that two people, both employees of Kodak, were aware of Caylee's disappearance. When they contacted the company, they learned that no such individuals were employed by Kodak.
Alleged Lie #10 - Casey told her family that Caylee would be home for her third birthday on August 9.

Okay now how about the top ten lies told by George and Cindy Anthony:
Lie #1 In her 911 call Cindy reported she hadn't seen her daughter in a month. Yet Cindy admitted on tv later to Greta Van Sustern that she had seen Casey on 6/24/2008 after speaking to her earlier about George's precious gas cans being allegedly stolen.
Lie #2 At Casey's bond hearing Cindy and Lee say they had always heard of Zenaida Gonzalez as Caylee's babysitter for at least a couple of years, yet no family member ever met her, had her phone number, had pictures of her, checked her background out etc.
Lie #3 Cindy admits in her 1st frantic 911 call that the car Casey's been driving smells like a dead body, later the dead body smell turned into a pizza that Cindy says Casey left in the car for weeks.
Lie #4 Cindy stated at Casey's bond hearing that she kept in touch with her daughter every day whether it was text messages, messages etc. The phone records will show this is a lie.
Lie #5 Cindy washes potential damning evidence found in her daughter's car, (Casey's smelly pants) supposedly by accident. Yet in one of her first interviews to the media she complained that since law enforcement never came by for evidence Cindy was going to start disposing of things.
Lie #6 George says the notorious facebook pix from Fusion nightclub were taken years ago before Caylee was born even though some are date stamped and there are witnesses to seeing Casey at the club.
Lie #7 Cindy Anthony tells Greta in an interview that Caylee's bio. father had a family of his own and lived out of state and Cindy has also said in another interview that Caylee's dad was killed ina car accident.
Lie #8 Cindy tells the media that Casey just found Jose Baez's name while in jail from another inmate. However no one knows if his services were arranged by the parents, a 3rd party or if Baez is doing her case pro bono.
Lie #9 A neighbor tells police they heard Cindy and Casey arguing around Caylee's disappearance time yet Cindy is adamant nothing ever happened.
Lie #10 thru 1,000 Almost everything Cindy says. A true case of like mother like daughter.
Lie #5

This family is going through a terrible ordeal. Casey for sure has said many untrue things but I do not think we should be attacking the Cindy and George. They truly love their daughter and Caylee and they want answers just as badly as we do. I don't believe in attacking Casey for that may make her clam up more than she already has. We won't know the truth and the whole story until Casey is ready to tell it. I think she will tell her parents once what happened once she is out on bond.

Boy, she's a weird one!
Posted by: el why | August 18, 2008 at 09:05 PM
SO really no-one in the family gives a crap what happened to this poor little girl... How sad. Some people shouldn't be permitted to have children.
Posted by: TKN | August 18, 2008 at 09:41 PM
It is my professional opionion that Casey Anthony is a sociopath. Just like Scott Peterson and Susan Smith. In particular, these two cases (Scott Peterson and Susan Smith) they murdered their spouse/ children to "Get them out of the way" for their new boy/girlfriend. Remember the jail calls from Casey Anthony desperately trying to get her boyfriend Tony's phone number? (i.e.: To brother Lee: "Do you have Tony's phone number?") Never a fleeting thought for her daughter.
Casey Anthony and Scott Peterson are ideal example of sociopaths. They look like you and me. For the most part they ACT (Word to remember here is ACT) "normal" Yet they are genuinely incapable of compassion, empathy, remorse or guilt for anyone but themselves. They spread lie, after lie after lie. It's a frustrating mental condition to others because to try to "talk sense" into a sociopath is a complete waste of time and energy. Casey Anthony and others like her are completely self-absorbed, pathalogical liars and narcissistic. We ("Normal" people)cannot fathom WHY someone (Casey Anthony, Scott Peterson-etc) would NOT be upset about the death/murder of a child, wife-etc. That is because they are mentally ill. These (type) of people may show tears but they are ACTING. And the tears are completely for themselves. There is no (mental) cure or rehabilitation for a sociopath. They genuinely feel NO remorse, empathy, guilt or pain for anyone but themselves. The best we can do is no believe them and avoid them, if at all possible.

I don't understand this case at all. When I first heard about the case I figured ok, the mom has the child in hiding from the dad because he is abusive or something...then come to find out the father has passed away....so that is not the reason.....I don't see any reason why Casey would hide this child. Why would one borrow a shovel and have slacks that are bloody and smell like a dead body? Why would the mother of all people wash those pants without questions? Something is just not right here...there has to be more to this case that we don't know. I truly believe that bounty hunter is stupid, he is pretty sure of himself and I am sure he will be wrong in the long run....I really do not believe that Caylee is alive, as much as that pains me to say. She is a beautiful little girl and this "mother" is not concerned at all.....that should be some clue!

I once dated a pathological liar; of course, I didn't know that at the beginning of our relationship, as he was very charming, nice, and seemed so sincere. I should have thought at the time, "if it sounds too good to be true ...", but in any event, the experience has woken me up alot! He would spin all kinds of stories and dramas, even when everything seemed to be going fine with us. He seemed to like getting me nervous and scared. Even when I confronted him with his obvious lies, he still wouldn't admit his lying. There were times when we could hold a perfect conversation, but other times, his behavior was just bizarre. I sent him on his way soon afterwards, as his behavior was so nutty and unexplainable at times that he drove me completely crazy; I soon couldn't stand him. I felt so stupid for so long for believing him, trusting him, and thinking our relationship was real. After we broke up, he continued to call me, leaving messages of "urgency", which were nothing except a ploy for me to call him back. He told me he met someone nearby and would I mind seeing them in town together? He lied about so many things, created dramas where there were none, and seemed annoyed that I was questioning him. Worse, he once told me never to lie to him because the one thing he hated the most was a liar! Run, don't walk, if you ever encounter a pathological liar. They will never change and they will drive you insane. His family tried to get him help, but he didn't want help; he just wanted to lie and get away with it. Apparently, his sister told me later that he has been lying his whole life and that the family was just disgusted with him. He fathered a child with another woman, who didn't suspect what he really was until it was too late. This other woman moved far away and cut off all contact. At least, I woke up from this nightmare and moved on with my life. Even if I was only with him for a couple of months, I still think what a waste of time out of my life it was. He would tell me that an ex-girlfriend was stalking him; another lie. He even told me his twin brother had died in a car accident; another lie. The lies are endless; the emotional trauma never ends until you wake me and see things for what they really are. R E A L I T Y

If she get's out of jail then I really can't believe our system works. My Theory: With all the lies she has told who can trust what she says is the truth now. If they let her out I have a feeling that she going to play the she is the inocent one. She just want's out. The people that have pitty for her you'all are just getting played by a conartist. I have three son's and if anything were to happend to them I would be doing whatever it took to find them. Even now that they are now older Twins 18 and one 21 I still freak out when things happen. She has everyone out looking for her and people sending money to help find her. if you look back in the past this is becoming more comen every day now. I don't think they should let her out until she can come up something that can help find her child. I pray that Caylle is still alive, but we all know it's been two months now, all we can do is hope.
Posted by: Lolly | August 19, 2008 at 11:32 AM
It's amazing how everyone knows how these people should be acting. Cindy, George and Lee seem to be doing whatever they can to try and find Caylee. I would like to know how many of you would be able to function day by day if this happened to you. Everyone deals with situations differently and everyone of us have said something we regret or shouldn't have said. We all make mistakes everyday and if you don't think you do, you are wrong. Why do we all think the media is correct and what they say is gospel????? I believe Caylee is alive and I don't think Casey harmed her other than giving her to someone else. Don't read into everything that is said in the newspapers and the media. Let's all keep praying for little Caylee that she is brought home soon and safe.
Posted by: Camilla | August 19, 2008 at 11:49 AM
These people that feel sorry for Casey need to get real. I mean really,what is she not telling us. That's the question we should be asking ourselfs. She is playing the pitty card. Think about it,if she gets out and plays this act she is putting on for people to feel sorry for her all they way through. She will get away with it because no one what to deal with the real questions. If she does get then our system does not work. I know inocent until proven guilty, but come on people She has lied about everything and not said one truth for anyone to believe.
Posted by: Angel | August 19, 2008 at 12:16 PM
If Casey was not attractive, like if she were fat, buck-toothed, cross-eyed or something else would the bounty hunter be interested? I am not trying to be cruel or rude to people who have a lesser physical appearance, just that I think he is in it for his TV show.
Posted by: Lola | August 19, 2008 at 02:23 PM
I agree with TKN. We're talking cluster B personality disorder here. She shows no sign, nor has she since the child's disappearance that she cares. And her continued emotional manipulation of her parents who are desperate and clinging to any little shred of hope she dangles out there for them; it's horrifying. She's cold.
Posted by: KLM | August 19, 2008 at 04:32 PM
To Lolly....cant wait til this is all over so that you can be proven WRONG. she is involved in the disappearance of her little girl...and you will soon see. the evidence is all there. just wait!!!
Posted by: butter | August 19, 2008 at 04:50 PM
I agree with TKN's assessment that Casey is a sociopath as well as a liar. She is only concerned for herself and making sure she has fun in her life. Caylee, unfortunately, hindered her ability to have fun & will most likely be the victim in this case regardless of whether she's alive or dead. But, in a way, I am almost more intrigued by Casey's parents' actions or lack thereof. I think that they are either in on this scam or, more likely, they have always been and continue to be enablers for Casey. It's the trap that a lot of parents find themselves in these days...they'd rather be their kids' friend and not their parent. My kids are grown now, but when my wife and I would lay down the ground rules for the house (curfews, what they could do or could not do and when), we always said, "We're your parents, we're not your friends and we don't want to be." It's too bad that Cindy and George didn't treat Casey that way as she was growing up. Now, because they weren't a parent to Casey, there's a life at risk.
Posted by: JPF | August 19, 2008 at 05:15 PM
I have a child who is the same age as Caylee I believe this is why I'm so emotional attached to this story. If anything would happen to her I would literally go crazy and give up my life for my child I would NOT be sitting behind bars looking so passive as if I were there on some traffic warrant. This Lady is crazy and so is that bounty hunter media W…. He calls himself! I pray that this Angel is still alive but the hope and evidence have spoken so loud. Also, why is it taking so long for DNA results to come back? What are they hiding?? Why is Florida taking this case so lightly there's a missing child out there and there turning this situation into a big circus! Caylee sweetie where ever your at I really hope your in a better place and if someone has you come forward the Nation that cares for this little girl needs to know if she is safe in the arms of Jesus or with someone. May God bless this child and for all the mothers and fathers out there God bless your children that have come to you as angels to be loved and cared for. No child should be put through this pain. Also for all the mothers who have thought about hurting or killing your children in most States with safe haven laws, either parent may surrender his or her baby to a safe haven. Casey I hope you really have a good reason to hide the truth….
God bless all.

This is a dysfunctional family. They have allowed Casey to lie for years. Has she ever told the truth? I believe she doesn't want to be held accountable for anything. Sooner or later the truth will come out. Nothing would surprise me at this point. I feel sorry for Caylee. I wish she could be found alive and safe. However it doesn't look good at this point. I don't know what good it will do to bail Casey out. She didn't look for Caylee or couldn't find her before. Only if she breaks down and finally tells the truth. God Bless Caylee where ever she is.
Posted by: Carol | August 19, 2008 at 05:52 PM
THIS WOMAN IS CRAZY, I DON'T BELIEVE ANY OF HER LIES. I THINK SHE KILLED THIS CHILD. SHE SHOULD BE LOCKED UP AND THROW THE KEY AWAY!! WHAT A NUT!!
Posted by: NMARIE | August 19, 2008 at 10:41 PM
If she gets out on bail, they'd better have her on around the clock surveillance because she is going to bolt the first chance she gets and will never be seen again.
I suspect the DNA tests came back negative or inconclusive and that's why we haven't heard anything on those and its probably why they have to let her out on bail.
Posted by: Dave in NY | August 19, 2008 at 11:00 PM
At this point now who cares if Casey clams up more or whether she talks. Absoultely nothing changes about this case on Casey's end. The cops have their DNA and forensics, it's just a matter of time. Maybe if at least Casey tells them where little Caylee's is buried, she'll get a lesser sentence and there will be resolution. Because believe me Casey hasn't learned to stop lying after a month+ in jail. That would be changing the habits of a lifetime. Everyone has already hinted that something bad has happened. Cindy said it herself Casey's only a 22 year old who wouldn't know how to handle something tragic. Her lawyer also said that Casey has a compelling reason for not talking. True we don't know how we would all handle being in a similar situation. But I think there's something to maybe loving your little grandbabies a little bit more than your grown children because they're defensless and innocent and sweet, everything Casey is not.

P.S. It's not that we all think the media is wrong and reporting "gospel" we're looking at cold hard facts like the police reports, search warrants, pictures of Casey getting her groove on and drinking, public interviews from George and Cindy, phone conversations between Casey and family, online blogs written from everyone and the list goes on. For instance go and read Grandma Cindy's blog from July 3rd when she even says Caylee is missing. Cindy knew then. They probably especially knew when they picked up the car their daughter was cruising around in which smelled like a dead body. "There's None So Blind As They That Won't See! God Bless Little Caylee. Hope Casey doesn't expect a welcoming party from friends and neighbors when she gets out. She better dye her hair blond again and start wearing clothes that fit her as a disguise.
Posted by: Crime Junkie Mama | August 19, 2008 at 11:31 PM
My intuition tells me that little Caylee is deceased. If Casey is bonded out of jail, don't be fooled...she will not talk to the bounty hunter nor anyone else...not about what happened to Caylee anyways. Plus...don't you think her attorney will continue to persuade her not to talk about the case? Unless a body is found, I believe we may never know the truth. The thing about pathological liars is they rarely ever tell the truth...maybe a small tidbit of honesty is wrapped around their stories sometimes. And even if they eventually do, whose going to believe them after the past track record? I know someone like this...he lies when he doesn't have to. It's almost like an addiction. I often wonder...what is it about their reality that they can't stand to face? Was Casey jealous of her parents attention to Caylee? If you listen to some of the phone calls with tot grandmother, you can almost get a feel of that in their conversations. Or was it that she didn't want the burden of a child after meeting her new boyfriend? Sad situation.... I hope they find Caylee soon. The other thing that's real curious....who is the REAL father of Caylee? I don't believe that story of Caylee's dad dying in a car wreck on his way to see Caylee. Not one bit! Weren't the parents aware of who Casey might of been seeing around the time of conception? C'mon...if they talk and/or text each other every day as Cindy Anthony claimed during the bond hearing, don't you suppose that kind of thing would have come out during conversation? When the parents found out Casey was pregnant, I'm sure they must of asked who the father was then? Ya think? What was her answer then I wonder? There just seems to be too many strange tales with this girl! Caylee Anthony is clearly the victim here....noone else.
Posted by: Sandi | August 20, 2008 at 12:00 AM
Lolly...are you serious? It's people like you that muddy the waters for cases like this and make it hard to solve!! !! Why would you discount all the lies she's told? And more importantly, why do you buy into her crap? All it does is give her the confidence to actually try and get away with it....did you see the smile she flashed in court when she turned around to see who was there at her later bond hearing? Did you see the way she was laughing and carrying on with her lawyers? That smug look on her face in between the laughs and smiles? It was almost like she was having a hard time containing the smiles....and I'll ask again, what mother would act like that? On that 1st 911 call, she begs her mom, "Just give me one more day"...and that's when the grandmother had her head screwed on straight and KNEW something wasn't right....did Casey say, "Mom please....we need to go find her"? Hell no she didn't! She wanted the exact opposite! Why would she be like that? Do you know any good mothers that would do that? The mom, dad and brother are just as bad as her if they keep this charade going! Casey's had a lot of time in jail to make sure her lies line up and she thinks she can spin her way out of this and her family is doing NOTHING to find their granddaughter because if they cared, they'd look past their spoiled brat of a daughter and realize she's responsible!! People like you keep the lie going because you buy into her crap....trust me, when this is all over you'll see you were wrong....but then you'll probably come up with some lame "Poor Casey" excuses like most people like you do....can't you use normal logic and see all of this doesn't make sense? And nobody's going to even get off their couch's for a minute to look for Caylee....why? Because it's wasted time because we all know she had something to do with her daughter being missing...so the grandma and stepgrandpa can keep yelling at everyone else to find Caylee because she's "alive and safe", but they need to look at their daughter and realize she's a POS!!!

I'm curious to see if anyone involved in this case could pass a lie detector test!!!
Posted by: Candace | August 20, 2008 at 08:50 AM
In my opinion, Casey was hanging out around at the airport and calling her parents over and over again shortly after Caylee diappeared, not because she was hiding the body, but because she was trying to get funds to buy an airline ticket. She had already disposed of the body and she wanted to disappear herself. Then she could pretend to her parents that she and her daughter were living at an undisclosed location (where she did not want them to visit her). or she could just get fake ID and start a new life with a new identity, maybe in Canada. I think that she was desparately trying to escape at that point.
Posted by: Marsha | August 20, 2008 at 10:28 AM
I have a question and comment -- something that has been bothering me that I have not heard anyone mention. I do believe something terrible has happened to little Caylee, but if not, and she is alive and is brought "home", where will "home" be. Surely she will not be allowed to be with this family anymore. Will she be put into protective custody, foster home, or something like that? I don't think this family should every have her again.
Posted by: Karyl | August 20, 2008 at 01:23 PM
I think if she gets out on bond, she will try and kill herself. In her mind, this is her only way out at this point, you would think? anyone else agree?
Posted by: amy | August 20, 2008 at 01:45 PM
David, You have done an excellent job in covering this case. Thanks for your work. It is a travesty of justice and a slap in the face to all the hard working individuals searching for Caylee and missing persons themselves if this young woman (Casey Anthony) is released from jail.
The general media is failing in it's job to ask hard questions and stay on top of the lies being fed my this family. They are prolonging this situation to increase their ratings. Whatever happened to true investigative journalism? Caylee is somewhere lost, dead or kidnapped and yet the bounty hunters are getting their 15 minutes of fame with the media fanning the flames.
Posted by: Skylonda | August 20, 2008 at 01:58 PM
I am just so sick of all of this! I do feel sorry for this family, but I don't see why they keep asking for help "finding Caylee" when all they need to do is ask her Mother! If she doesn't care enough to give up information that would help find the child -- how on earth are we supposed to find her? I would love to find this little girl, but I am also realistic. So many children go missing and are never found -- and we have credible information that would help find them -- what makes anyone think that we can find this poor little girl with such wild goose-chase information? Its impossible! As for the "baby-sitter" even if this were true -- most people by now have heard about this case. They have heard what's going on. Even if this person supposedly did not speak english -- this story has been plastered all over the place in all "other language" television and accross the country and the world. By now, don't you think this person would have said something like "hey, wait a minute -- I didn't steal this child -- she was abandoned in my care!!! Here, take her back! In the case of an undocumented individual, by now they would have just dropped her off at a shelter, police station, fire station, etc. -- for fear of getting caught with the child and deported! Unless ofcourse the person that took Caylee actually knows all these crazy people and believe she/he can give her a better life! We don't know what happened to Caylee -- we most likely never will...

I have to somewhat agree with Lolly. I don't think Casey killed Caylee. I think she might have sold her. That could be a reason why she is not emotional about the situation.
Posted by: LMI | August 20, 2008 at 05:06 PM
Caylee is alive. Casey wants to be famous!!!
Posted by: Josh | August 20, 2008 at 06:29 PM
July 15th was Father's Day. She was at the airport. She likes to lie. Why believe the dead guy is the father. She wanted to go on vacation with her friends. Could it be the real father, whom she has lied about for God knows what reason, is alive and exists somewhere else, flew in, took the baby? Or could it be she arranged somehow to sell the baby and the trade was at the airport where the baby was then transported to a new home to a family who simply purchased a kid. Maybe there is a final outstanding payment that can only be made if things are not disclosed? While I am 100% convinced this person is a sociopath, is she capable of murdering her kid or simply saw a way to get rid of her kid that she viewed as "an anchor" and receive some cash/freedom. Remember, she wanted to go on vacation. Someone should review airport videos and also find out if Casey was buying the drinks when she was seen partying.
Posted by: Mike | August 20, 2008 at 09:46 PM
Here's my perspective on that so called "Bounty Hunter" and his (rich) nephew. First of all, he didn't pay his nephew $50K. Maybe his nephew gave him the 50K, then he wrote a check back to him to make it look good. Second of all, there's no way Casey is a flight risk. She'll be monitored, plus her face and name is all over the world - she has no place to go. This is a GUARANTEE that the bounty hunter's nephew is getting his $500K back. The $250K reward money is a really good return on his investment. The payment for stories from all the TABLOIDS will be added to this investment. All their plane tickets, traveling expenses, etc, will written off as a business expense. Now if these two yahoo's really do care about getting Caylee back, why didn't they just use the $500K to hire top notch private investigators to look for her. How many top notch PI's could $500K buy?
Posted by: Lynn | August 20, 2008 at 11:44 PM
Why hasn't even commented on what her "job" was during all this time she was supposedly at work. We know she was fired from Universal in 2006 so what has been her job since that time? Where did her parents think she was working? Did she ever bring in money or paychecks? Where was she going every day after leaving the boyfriend Tony's apt to go to "work"? I have never heard the my space letter from her mom being mentioned on the news. I think she did this out of spite towards her mom. She is a mean son of a b.... I think everyone is just holding their breath until Caylee is found dead and she is charged with murder. Even if it was an accident, which I doubt, she waited far too long and kept lying and lying without any regard to even giving her daughter a decent burial and putting her family through this. I think they are now covering for her so she doesn't get the death penalty.
Posted by: charlene davis | August 21, 2008 at 01:50 AM
As I write this FOX is covering Casey's release. My blood is boiling. They should have kept her in jail as a person of interest in her daughter's disappearance. What I want to comment on is about the biggest lie told- that Caylee has been kidnapped. The first reason to kidnap someone is for money. The Anthony's don't have any. If it was for a past due payment for drugs, don't you think it would cost the dealer money to take care of the child? I don't believe Casey was involved in drugs. She was money hungry so she could spend it on herself for clothes and beauty treatments and such things to keep up with her facade of being rich. Suppose the child was kidnapped by a caring person who thought that Casey was an unfit mother? Well, if this were true, then the kidnapper would have tried to alert authorities first and the authorities would have done nothing about it to the satisfaction of the kidnapper. Are there any reports filed with authorities? That would have been revealed by now. And, if this were true, the kidnapper would have come forward while Casey was locked up. They would want the media attention of why they believe Casey to be unfit. Now, could Casey have sold her daughter for money? Maybe. But one would think that the buyers would come forward by now, too, to explain what had happened. Unless, they haven't heard about this well known news story or they live out of the country. Or they bought the child for something illegal. If the child was sold or kidnapped, then all the other evidences that have piqued the interest of police would be discounted by now. Let's get the cement pad dug up! George Anthony should have had it done first thing to quell the lies of such a rumor of his daughter burying her there. Does the cement pad mean that much to him? I would think there would be no amount of trouble to him that would clear his daughter of killing her child. I would think he would do it just because he believes his granddaughter is alive and he would want the public to know it. Dig up that cement pad already so the speculations are put to rest!

On this matter of a cement pad, I have heard reports that it was not poured concrete at all. The family laid down pavers, and the pavers were removed. The police checked the ground beneath the pavers thoroughly. The police are not buffoons.

Thanks Tea. I did not know that info. And I surely did not mean to imply that the police were buffoons. I will pass along your info to others that want that "pad" dug up.

I think now that she is out, she is going to try to harm herself, I heard she was obsessed with the "Trenton Duckett" case.
I can't imagine why anyone would want to come in and bail her out of jail. "THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE GOOD"

Casey Stated:
Lie #1 In her 911 call Cindy reported she hadn't seen her daughter in a month. Yet Cindy admitted on tv later to Greta Van Sustern that she had seen Casey on 6/24/2008 after speaking to her earlier about George's precious gas cans being allegedly stolen.
How is it that Cindy seen Casey on the 24th, but Caylee had been missing since 6/16 last seen by her grandfather. He stated that Casey & Caylee left the house at 12:50pm on 6/16 and that he left the house at 2:30pm on 6/16 and that is the same day the phone calls began with Casey calling her dad at 3:03pm?????????
Cindy Stated:
Lie #4 Cindy stated at Casey's bond hearing that she kept in touch with her daughter every day whether it was text messages, messages etc. The phone records will show this is a lie.
If she kept in touch with her daughter through the phone and texts, then why was she not aware where Casey and Caylee where.

I once dated a pathological liar; of course, I didn't know that at the beginning of our relationship, as he was very charming, nice, and seemed so sincere. I should have thought at the time, "if it sounds too good to be true ...", but in any event, the experience has woken me up alot! He would spin all kinds of stories and dramas, even when everything seemed to be going fine with us. He seemed to like getting me nervous and scared. Even when I confronted him with his obvious lies, he still wouldn't admit his lying. There were times when we could hold a perfect conversation, but other times, his behavior was just bizarre. I sent him on his way soon afterwards, as his behavior was so nutty and unexplainable at times that he drove me completely crazy; I soon couldn't stand him. I felt so stupid for so long for believing him, trusting him, and thinking our relationship was real. After we broke up, he continued to call me, leaving messages of "urgency", which were nothing except a ploy for me to call him back. He told me he met someone nearby and would I mind seeing them in town together? He lied about so many things, created dramas where there were none, and seemed annoyed that I was questioning him. Worse, he once told me never to lie to him because the one thing he hated the most was a liar! Run, don't walk, if you ever encounter a pathological liar. They will never change and they will drive you insane. His family tried to get him help, but he didn't want help; he just wanted to lie and get away with it. Apparently, his sister told me later that he has been lying his whole life and that the family was just disgusted with him. He fathered a child with another woman, who didn't suspect what he really was until it was too late. This other woman moved far away and cut off all contact. At least, I woke up from this nightmare and moved on with my life. Even if I was only with him for a couple of months, I still think what a waste of time out of my life it was. He would tell me that an ex-girlfriend was stalking him; another lie. He even told me his twin brother had died in a car accident; another lie. The lies are endless; the emotional trauma never ends until you wake me and see things for what they really are. R E A L I T Y
OH MY GOD CN THIS SOUND LIKE THE GUY I MARRIED THAT I AM TERRIFIED OF AND TRYING TO DIVORCE, THE SAME EXACT LIES THAT YOU SAID YOUR EX TOLD YOU IS THE SAME EXACT LIES MY EX HAS TOLD ME AND COME TO FIND OUT HIS FAMILY IS FED UP WITH HIM TOO AND HE NEVER HAD A TWIN BROTHER AND HE DOES HAVE A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL THAT I HAVE HELPED RAISE. IS THERE MORE THAT JUST ONE WITH GUY THAT TELLS THE SAME EXACT LIES ABOUT THE SAME THINGS......SCARY!!!!!

Caylee is dead. It was an accident. Casey has been using Caylee as her way IN with her parents since she was born. Cindy and George would have tossed Casey out on her arse years ago for the lies, games, thefts, etc. But with their precious little granddaughter in tow, Casey has had the luxury of using her parents' vehicle, using their home to come and go as she pleases, and able to even steal their credit cards with no real fear of being tossed out. Cindy and George don't want to lose Caylee so they put up with her mother.
When Caylee died, so did Casey's ability to continue walking all over her family.
She didn't tell them about Caylee's accidental death for several, very selfish, reasons....one being her fear of being ostracized by her family and two being she'd have to end this new and exciting relationship with the new boyfriend Tony.

The pathological liar females I have known would always come up pregnant and have miscarriages, they'd get raped (no evidence or police report), some would threaten suicide (but never actually do anything near an attempt). They are very needy, and have to be connected to people. The best way I can describe that is they were compulsive phone-callers. They'd call everyone in their phone books, even if they hadn't seen them in months, and give them updates on their lives. Usually the updates included fake boyfriends, pregnancies, etc. Oh, and the tragic deaths (like Casey's dad on the way to her birthday). It was never enough that someone died, but they died in sacrifice to the liar in some way. I never had patience for them enough to pretend to believe or buy into their drama, so they were out of my life pretty quickly. I'd hate to be intimately involved with one or related to one.

One of the lies that Casey allegedly said was that Caylee would be home for her 3rd birthday. I think that George Anthony wanted to believe that she said that, but I think she said that SHE (Casey) wanted to be home for Caylee's 3rd birthday. She went along with George and just nodded her head.

This is going to be one of those cases where everyone sits up and says what the heck when it comes to an end. Caylee is not dead and Casey is guilty of neglect and child endangerment at the most.

CrimeJunkieMama -- If George & Cindy truly loved Caylee, they would stop lying and covering up for Casey, they would tell the police the truth so maybe they could get to the bottom of it and find Caylee. Maybe they don't know where she is or what happened to her, although I don't believe that. But they may know something that they don't think is important, but may actually be the key to the case.

The Police are never going to find this child, while Casey and her parents continue lie, distort and throw blame at mysterious babysitters, nannies, old pizzas, etc.
Sadly, this case reminds of the Trenton Duckett case. That poor kid has never been found. His Mom spun lie upon lie, too.

Who knows if Padilla can bring forth the goods or not. He seems confident and has tons of experience but listening to him he sure doesnt have his facts straight. He claims Casey gave her to one of her friends but Casey has no such friend and if she did why wouldnt she tell?
He claims Casey began telling lies after this deal took place but according to Casey's mother Cindy, Casey began betraying and lying soon after she became pregnant. (see Cindy's letter on myspace). And certainly if Casey sold or gave away her child it was to get back at her parents. And if some people have her why would they return her? What if they were pedofiles?
I believe the dogs and that Caylee's death was an accident. Casey also made a remark to her father which her father did not understand and should have questioned and that is when Casey apologized to him mentioning about "what a shame it was that happened in the shed". The trouble with these parents is that they let everything slide ...so blase...and just drop cliches and magic phrases that just slurr and slide over all the edges...no accountability is their motto...just save my daughter because she is my daughter. That is all they care about. and truth gets buried alive.
The psychic serchers with their dogs need to walk the area near the airport where all Casey's calls were made from...a remote swampy area because that is a logical disposal place for a body.
This case is going to drag on for a long time while Casey paints her toenails spewing lie after lie. She seems to have her lawyer fooled with a major doozie making herself out to be some kind of martyr for hiding the info on Caylee so as to protect her. Oh yeah oh yeah...dumb and dumber...
I will be very impressed if the bondsmen team pull up any real evidence.

Concerned,
Ah....the incessant phone calls. Good times. NOT.
You need to get out. I was (unwittingly) married to a sociopath and had a child with him! I thank the universe often that, but for the grace of G-d I would be another Lacy Peterson, Lori Hacking, ad infinitum. I wasn't afraid because he wasn't violent, rather mentally controlling. I had the support of long time friends I reconnected with (he alienated me from friends, family - mine and his, coworkers, etc). He harped all the time that "actions are louder than words". Good for me and my son that I finally listened past his constant lying and 'listened' to his behavior.
Take control of your life and do what you can to extricate yourself from this toxin. Wishing you the best in doing so.
