Investigators Find Caylee Anthony's DNA

August 05, 2008

According to a spokesperson from the Orange County Sheriff's Office, investigators have found Caylee Anthony's DNA; however they will not confirm if it was discovered in the trunk of the car that was used by the missing toddler's mom, Casey Anthony.

"When it is appropriate, we will do what is necessary to further this case. We will not discuss results individually regarding any item that is returned to us," Orange County Sheriff's Office Capt. Angelo Nieves said.

Despite this breaking news, Nieves does not believe Caylee will be found without assistance from her mother.

"What we need to do is receive information from Casey that is nothing but the truth," Nieves said.

Yesterday, WFTV.com reported that prosecutors had offered Casey Anthony immunity, in exchange for information about her daughter; however State Attorney's Office spokesman Randy Means has since said that no such deal is in the works.

"We are not entertaining immunity for anyone involved with this case," Means told WESH.com.

Baez also said that the only DNA evidence that investigators have recovered was taken from the car that Casey Anthony was driving.

Investigators spent several house questioning George and Cindy Anthony yesterday, but it remains unclear if they provided any new information.

Meanwhile, investigators are trying to determine who the biological father of Caylee is. It was recently revealed that a University of Central Florida student who died on May 8, 2007, is a potential candidate; however both his family and Anthony's are denying the rumors. Yesterday, the medical examiner's office revealed that they still have a sample of the young man's blood, which could be used for a paternity test.

Caylee Anthony's third birthday is Saturday.

Well here's an issue.
Its either give immunity to mummy and hope she tells you where Caylee is (off chance, though. The woman's a compulsive liar who doesn't give a flying f**k about her daughter), then, upon discovering how she killed her baby and/or sold her off, letting her go off happy go lucky;
or, leave things be as she tells you fancy stories, none of which match up with anything, all the while risking Caylee's life if she is indeed alive, because, if that is true, her hours are limited.

I can't help but wonder if this entire mess is being carried on by Casey for time. If, maybe, she has someone behind her wiping up the spills, so to speak, and in order for that to be properly carried out, she's got to lead to police on a wild goose chase for a few more weeks. Her parents are going along with it because they know that Caylee isn't coming back, and they can't bear to lose their own daughter also. She's all they have left, even if she is a monster. But the audacity of putting up a website pleading for donations 'for posters' is unspeakable!
**Word to the wise, Casey: they're going to find the evidence that you committed a crime, whether it be murder or whatever else. All your doing now is getting yourself in over your head. And when they find that evidence, you get to spend the rest of your life in a cell, because not even the greatest lawyer out there is going to be able to save you. Tell them what happened, plead guilty, and you'll get to go home again someday, and the press will stop the smears sooner. The truth's not going to set you free, because you already screwed everything up, but it sure is going to help things go smoother.

I don't think Casey has an accomplice besides her Mother after the fact, which is a good possibility. Of all her lies I believe she is giving hints of truth. She said, Caylee is close by...code for: her body is not far away. She also talked of levels: could mean where the body actually is.

A lot of local people have been on there confirming information that has been put up. I found it even more interesting because if you look at the dates of the information posted you see the police are going to places in the area that correlate to these postings. One said that the complex that Casey said the babysitter lived at is surrounded by streets with state names like New York Ave. Coincidentally, the four states Casey told the police to look for the babysitter are the same as these street signs. Also, the complex is situated inbetween Grandma's house and her boyfriend's house. Also, there are alligators in the area but I don't think they go for anything already dead...but I'm not sure about that.

Anyway, I agree with the Word to the Wise to Casey. She is merely putting off the inevitable.

[CentralFLMOM]

Perhaps Cindy killed Caylee in a jealous rage, because she knew Caylee was actually the daughter of George and Casey Anthony, in an effed up incestual love triangle..and that would explain Casey's obviously psychological disorders, and the family's constant cover ups. Not much has been done to determine who the father is..who could easily be the missing key.

[Denise]

I believe Casey left Caylee in the car while she went to a bar, drinking & partying with friends. We all know what can happen to a child left in a car for just a few hours. I believe she found her child dead, put her in the trunk of her car & got rid of the body! I believe the pizza was planted in the trunk to try to cover the smell of death! And then parked the car in the hot sun for days, giving plenty of time for that pizza to rot!

[Teresa]

This mother is guilty of something that most mothers have nightmares about. I am not even sure Casey's mother does not know more than she is saying. Parents should not let their children put blame for their actions on someone else and apparently that is the way Casey was raised. She did not become a cronic lier overnite. This has been going on for a long time and it seems her family defends her lies.
Charge Casey with 1st degree murder!!!!!! Let the evidence prove what most of us already know. This child is dead.
Thanks mommy dearest.

[Lisa]

I watch Nancy Grace every night about this case. I think Casey definitely had something to do with it and she thinks she's a good liar but lies will eventually catch up with her and she will make a mistake somewhere and tell another story that doesn't match up with what other lies and stories she has told. It always happens that way. I get so sick of hearing cases about mothers that do something horrible to their children. They don't deserve to be parents. Children are so innocent. I can't see how someone would want to hurt them in any way. I feel really bad for Caylee. The grandma is no help either she seems like she's covering up for her daughter. They probably did something to Caylee together. I hope Casey & her mother get what they deserve. Four walls with no windows. I believe in Karma.

[Spimby]

Hmmm..so they found DNA evidence in the car, is that really helpful? Unless it was massive amoutns of blood, I'm sure Casey will make the logical point that Caylee was in the car while she was alive ALL THE TIME. This is sort of like 'discovering' that she had been in the house at one point.

I still think that the father is a huge key to this puzzle. Find out who the dad is (and what happened to him) and you can crack the Casey mystery.

[AMY SALERNO]

Has anyone considered that Casey's brother Lee is the biological father? I have been struck by the strange mystery surrounding the paternity of Caylee. I have also thought it interesting that the 2 year-old's name is a combination name: Casey + Lee = Caylee. What about that? I think the family members need to be paternity tested...

[Waiting for Forensics]

If the investigators are trying to determine Caylee's biological father, perhaps they should talk to Stefany Kostakis. She was listed as a visitor on Casey's jail visitor log and also gave a long comment about Jesus Ortiz to reporters for the article about his death. Seems like she knows both the alleged father and Casey Anthony very well.

By the way, are all old posts deleted now that there is the updated timeline?

http://community.discovery.com/eve/forums/a/frm/f/3581916879

Would love to see you guys help us get it going>

[Waiting for Forensics]

To: Amy Salerno

I haven't gotten any "vibes" that the brother and sister (Lee and Casey) have had an incestuous sexual relationship.

Many people honor close relatives by naming their children after them. For example if grandmother is Mary and Aunt is Ann, the child might be named "Maryann."

Just my take on it.

[Waiting for Forensics]

Thought I'd add links to the Stefany [sic] / Stephanie Kostakis connection to Jesus Ortiz - the alleged biological father of Caylee. Kostakis is said to have emailed this comment to the UCF newspaper regarding Jesus Ortiz' death:

"[Ortiz] was probably one of the best people I ever knew," said friend Stephanie Kostakis in an e-mail. "I never saw him without a smile on his face. He had a kind heart, a good head on his shoulders, and could brighten up anyone's day.

"I went to the viewing. Normally when you go they say the person should look 'at peace,' but he didn't," Kostakis continued in the e-mail. "He looked uncomfortable. It wasn't his time."

You can read it the article here:

http://media.www.centralfloridafuture.com/media/storage/paper174/news/2007/05/21/News/Ucf-Student.Dies.In.Tragic.Car.Crash-2905719.shtml

Then she shows up on Casey's jail visitor log for August 3. When Casey realized her visitation was very limited, she requested that only her mother, father and brother be allowed to visit - so I don't know if Casey met with Kostakis. The jail visitor log can be seen here:

http://blogs.discovery.com/criminal_report/files/casey_anthony_visitation_log.pdf

Like I said, I would be interviewing this girl from several angles.

[K.V.]

I think people should stop speculating and wait - the child's DNA and body fluid ought not to be found in the trunk of the car. The police needs to have the time to build a case - the public's curiosity does not supercede Caylee's right to bring the guilty party/parties to justice.

Allegations of incest is disgusting - there is no evidence. I can actually understand the family's psychological need to deny the truth - it's too horrific to digest.

Police only offers immunity of they have something to gain - I have no "real information" but my guess is they don't need to give immunity - there will be enough evidence to convict this Mother even if Caylee's body is not recovered.

[Kristena]

All i can say is that this case makes me sick, its more than obvious that this crazy women did somthing terrible to her little girl and the fact that she is so smug about it is sickening!! She shows no remorse, no emotion at all. Find out who Caylee's father is, i think that will be a big piece of the puzzle!! All of these lies, and all of this running around she's got the investigator's doing is just to buy her time to finish whatever it is that she has done.......the truth will come out, sooner or later!!

[Lisa Manson]

I just tried to comment on this case and it didn't take. Will try again. Where is precious little Caylee? My God, the whole world is wondering the same thing. Casey is lying and how can her parents just sluff it off. Oh, daughter or son, I would be pulling teeth to find out the truth. I saw Cindy on Larry King and it made me sick to listen to her comments. She blames everyone but her daughter. Cindy is just complicating things with her untruths. Personally I think Lee is the only one taking this thing seriously. I hope this case is solved sooner than later. Enough lies already, it is time to tell the truth. Caylee doesn't deserve this and my prayers are with her.

[Jennifer Agee]

It appears to me that the whole family is involved. Too much "code talking" with Lee; Cindy in complete psychotic denial and a habitual liar hersef; grandfather of Caylee, George, a very shady character. I've worked in the mental health field and this "case" is a psychiatrist's nightmare. Maybe someone will talk on Caylee's birthday and give that child a decent burial, and jailtime for the whole FRICKEN' family, if you can call them that! And why was there a CONCRETE SLAB POURED in the Anthony's back yard over the 4th of July weekend????? I plan on having a birthday party for Caylee on Sabbath. Thanks!

[David]

I just watched a new video of the brother from Foxnews. It seems pretty clear that this whole family is living in a fantasy world where they believe they don't have to tell the truth.

[Amanda]

I think it is so sad what has happened to this poor little baby, i truly believe that casey and her mother, are both behind caylee coming up missing, I have 2 small children of my own, one is 2 and one is 8 months old, and if something ever happened to one of them, i would go crazy, i sit and think about all the people that can't have children but deserve them anyways, and then there are these people like casey that can have them and do, but just don't care, i mean what could a two year old possably do to make you so angry to want to hurt her, CASEY just tell them where you beautiful little baby girl is, YOU MAY NOT CARE BUT THE REST OF THE WORLD DOES, PLEASE!!!

[Emmilie]

This case makes me so nautious. Almost to the point of being sick to my stomache. I was watching a video of little Caley reading a book and this child was soo adorable. The thought of her own mother or someone harming her in any way is a knife going straight into my heart. I can't get past how the mother of this child *Casey* or the grandmother *Cindy* didn't acknowledge or report this child missing until 30 days later. If I was missing my family would know right away had I not been heard from in a day. And they would be out searching for me right away. But, thats because my family is normal. This Anthony family is guilty. All of them. I feel like the whole family is guilty. Whenever I see the grandmother I get bad vibes. I think she's shady!!! This child is not alive and these people are making an ass out of the police by sending them on a cat and mouse chase. Throw them all in jail until they confess!!!!

The family has myspace accounts too just to make themselves look good!

[Amanda]

I belive casey and her mother are both in this togeather, i feel so bad for this baby. I stop and think about all the people that can't have children but deserve them anyways, and there are people like casey who can have them, and do, but just don't care anyways..CASEY TELL THEM WHERE YOUR BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL IS, YOU MAY NOT CARE BUT THE REST OF THE WORLD DOES, PLEASE!!

[Emmilie]

I agree w/the person who stated that Casey didn't want to be a parent anymore. That's exactly what happened. Casey is 22 yrs old. She wanted to do just what 22yr olds without kids do. Cook dinner for the boyfriend. Have sex. Party. Go Clubbing. Have no responsibility. I think Casey got upset w/the child. The child was probably having a fit over something. Crying or screaming. Having a tantrum like all children at that age. And casey tripped and possibly hit or harmed the child in someway. Causing something trauma to the child. She panicked. Then borrowed a shovel. Stole money and a car. And then proceeded to hide and get rid of the evidence. Burry the body.

As for the family of Casey. Their odd. What kind of family doesn't know the what is going on w/their own child or grandchild. I think they are just as guilty in this case. And I think it's pathetic that they are pretending like they care by doing press and making myspace accounts.

Karma is gonna get them.

[Karen]

Does anyone know if they have checked little Caylee's social security number for activity? We all know that scumbag parents will stop at nothing to get what they want...and Cayce has already stolen money from her parents...why not her child? If she used Caylee's social maybe there is a paper trail?

[Karen]

I think the police need to release Cayce into the general population of the prison and let the other incarcerated mothers (who would actually love to see their kids) have a go at interrogating her.

[Tracey]

As a mother, even when your children do wrong, you continue to want to believe in them, even when they are not always truthful. I believe Cindy Anthony is simply naive in believing her daughter. When I saw the club pictures, wondered to myself if Casey left her daughter in the car so she could go party and it was at that point that something terrible happened. The longer she prolongs the truth, the worse it will be for her in the long run. I always imagine myself in someone else's situation and what bothers me the most (other than the obvious---There's a missing baby) is that the family is under scrutiny for what the daughter is doing or has done. As a mother, no matter how hard I have tried to change certain behaviors in my children, nothing has worked. I have gone to therapists and the court system...you name it, I did it. So when I hear of the grandparents being blamed for their daughter's problems, it strikes a nerve with me. Each Person Is Accountable for Themselves. Casey Anthony knows right from wrong, I assure you. I pray for this family, but it's a different prayer for them all. I am also a grandmother, so I can only imagine the heartbreak that these grandparents are feeling. They have lost 2 family members. I also see nothing wrong with asking for donations for flyers. If I was suddenly in this kind of nightmare, that would surely be another stressor, financially. Give these people a little break. It's the daughter that holds the key, not the family.

[Nevah75]

Lisa:

It's not the fact that they found DNA at all, it's where they found it...in the trunk. Do your children play in the trunk of your car? Also, the "stain" in question is most likely body fluids from a dead body. These fluids are very distinct and much different than ordinary body fluids of any kind coming from a living person. It would only lead to one conclusion...that she is indeed dead. They just haven't seen fit to give us all the details yet as they're undoubtedly building a murder case against Casey Anthony.

[liang]

Casey might have left Caylee in the vacant apartment where she told police the babysitter lived. She did it because leaving a child in a car is very dangerous and if someone passing by seeing and reporting it to police, Casey will be in trouble. She must have known it. So before she decided to go to some social event, she left the kid in where she knows as a vacant apartment to save money, and faked the story to her boyfriend and others that she sent the little baby to baby sitter's home. Remember, people around her said she was a good mother, she probably wants people think that way. I think some bad thing happened to her baby during the time Casey was in party, possibly she was killed by somebody, a psycho maybe. She started to cover the story because she thinks that's the best way to get off. She moved the baby's body and buried her and then abandoned the car. Well, it is just my wild guess, and if police can check again the vacant apartment, they maybe able to get something if my guess is true.

Lynn: your comment is disgusting and I have gotten no such impression. I would say you have a sick mind. This doesn't help. The G'parents are beside themselves if you haven't noticed as is the brother. It is Casey's will and character in question here. It is not always the parents fault that someone is born with a missing link. They seem like very decent people that guided her through the 1st couple of years of motherhood and helped her a lot as a single parent. You can't make her stay forever with her parents and she had a right to take her child with her as painful as that must have been for the parents. I am from San Diego and know nothing of them personally, but, I do know they are struggling to support their daughter while wanting to get at the truth of the matter. Please people don't be so disgusting in your comments.

[Angie]

Liang, I think Lynn was just speculating her theory about what MAY have happened. The fact that it is disgusting has nothing to do with being able to comment because it very well may be true. It is always a possibility and that's what comments are for; to express your own personal theories about the case at hand. I think anyone could be correct at this point; and anything is possible.

[Angie]

I apologize, Liang, my comment was supposed to be directed toward frdies comment, I read it wrong.

[Catseye]

OK, THE ANSWER TO ALL THIS.... George is the biological father and this whole family does not want this deep dark secret revealed. George and Cindy were divorced 4 mos. after Caylee was born. Look in the public records! They did not have any rings on in the early appearances and now they do. Hmmm. SHADY!

[Kat]

I am wondering about the credit card that Casey charged $45,000 on that was Cindy's card. Wouldn't a fraud alert have been issued in such a short time - 20-30 days? What did she spend the money on? Cash advances on that level would have alerted the credit card company if she was paying a babysitter that way. Did she pay someone to get rid of her daughter? How does someone spend that much money with no bills or rent to pay? Am I missing some info about the timeline of the $45,000 spending spree? Also, did Club Fusian have surveillance cameras for their parking lot or her boyfriend's apartment building?

[jane]

CSI is at the home of the grandparents. They just arrived collecting more evidence. Maybe we are finally getting somewhere! 1:45pm - August 6

[Lisa Manson]

I am a grand mother and would or could not believe that my son could do harm to my grand daughter. Now, I feel that the family doesn't know anymore than what Casey has told them. Cindy phoned in to Nancy Grace and Larry King last night to defend her daughter. It was disgusting to listen to her. She blames the media yet she is calling them everyday for comments, etc. Keep quiet, Cindy. The truth will be known eventually (wishfull thinking) and this case will have closure. I pray that little Caylee is still with us. Every web site I look at the polls say otherwise. Sad but true. The majority of people think the worst.

[Roxie]

Catseye,

Your comment intrigues me. You saw a public record that states that Cindy and George Anthony are divorced? And that in fact they divorced 4 months after Caylee was born? That's very strange, why do they still live together?

Most people get separate lives when they get divorced....can you send me a link to where you saw that information?

Thanks.

[Toddo]

Following this case like everyone else…. This Family definitely has some issues….. The GM is disputing the Cadaver dogs alerting to the trunk and the back yard…. Although the Police state the alerts were positive from both dogs….. Why would she say otherwise….. it’s obviously a part of the record that the dogs had positive alerts. These dogs are trained to only alert to human decomp….. That’s their job….. the police use two dogs to make sure the handler has not somehow cued the dog… I honestly do not believe the family and since casey is giving them no real information one could surmise that Casey did something to her child…. One thing is for sure this case is not going away…. This idea that they can’t say for fear she might be hurt? Makes no logical sense to anyone who has half a brain….. If she is endanger the best way to find her is to talk with the police and the FBI…… i.e this is who I believe has her….they have threatened to kill her or my family if I don’t do X/Y/Z….. If you go public with this information….. she will be harmed….. Then the police actively search but do it covertly….. now this is logical….. to speak in code “Dad she’s close….. etc” is totally insane…… On the pictures…. computer time stamps indicated time and date….embeded in the file…… This idea that she goes to a Hot Body contest and bumps and grinds and drinks while doing her own investigation…… who in their right mind would believe such nonsense….. This whole thing makes me sick…… I hope she is alive but all of the real evidence is pointing to something else…. She is not being truthful… to me this speaks volumes toward her guilt…. I think the police know the DNA found in the trunk is Caylee’s. If it was not….. I am pretty sure they would not be as tight lipped….. The Child Neglect and false information charges are slam dunks….. So they charge her for that so they can continue to hold her without tipping there hand to her slim ball laywer…. What a piece of work this guy is…… His only concern is with his client…..

I think employing a little used technique of Water boarding would work nicely in case like this…..

What’s with the FBI? Jesus the G-man can’t break this 22 year old….. I don’t know about you but that doesn’t make me feel confident in our federal authorities…… Where’s Sipowitz whe you need him…..

Lastly: I hope justice is done in this case one way or another…….

[Lisa]

I have my own theory on this case, and believe Caylee was silenced by her mother. I however feel this was done prior to the many dates given possibly as early as fathers day. I do not believe Caylle was killed anywhere but at the grandparents home, then the cover up by Casey began. This inclds moving this poor little girl's body in the car then just leaving the car after she placed Caylee whereever she took her.I beleve she was first buried at her grandparents home, and NEVER left with Casey, after all who ever saw them leave the house together supposely for this vacation? I just pray they charge her asap and get the deserved justice for this little girl, I am a mother of 4 children, one who is 2 herself, i can not imagine looking in her angel eyes and being able to do anything to neglect, nor harm her in anyway.
I watch this case closely, and all i want to hear is they finally know the truth and not alone charge the guilty party but give them the same sentence as poor little Caylee has undoubtfully gotten.
This little Angel deserves justice.

[Tea]

For the record, I don't think Casey knows who the father of her child is. I suspect that once her own family put pressure on her to seek child support she came up with the dead dad story, conveniently out of state. Everything with her is an evasion. Everything will happen "tomorrow."

At first I had a modicum of sympathy for Cindy insofar as she needs to protect/defend her daughter. But, now I feel like she knew for an entire month that something wasn't right. Who from that family will put the anger where it belongs and think of Caylee first?

Anthony Family, to you I say act like you really want to know what happened to Caylee. If you believe someone has her then turn to a camera and ask for her return for once.

There are two things that are certain 1. We all cannot get little Calee out of our head. 2. How many of us would like to wring casey's neck how dare she carry on like this

[SCBikerChick]

Where are the tears???
Even Susan Smith from Union SC who drove her car into a lake with her 2 boys in the backseat shed tears....she at least felt some remorse....This girl and her parents dont even cry when they talk about Caylee being gone.....tonight I heard Cindy say on the 911 call that her daughter had been missing for a month....so she had to know something was wrong if her daughter hadnt been home in a month....she was living there...with Caylee....so Hello...if your daughter is not comming home night after night wouldnt that be a clue something is up? I mean even when I go out of town and I call my daughter I ask to speak with my grand daughter too...If this family is so close then why didnt Cindy ask to speak to Caylee during this 30 day period?...

[Angela Smith]

Im really sickened by this case. As if it isnt sick enough. I feel like these sick people are now using Caylee for some sort of fame. I might be off base in this comment but thats what I feel.

I believe Caycee would give Caylee something to make her sleep, adn then would put her in the truck of her car while she partied, and then finally something went wrong and Caylee died. Caycee has since made up all these stories to cover it up. Her parents, Cindy and George, make me sick. I can't bear to listen to them anymore. I notice they don't cry either. I would not be able to compose myself as well as they do when talking about this child. I have two grandchildren, 4 and 2. If my daughter, who is an only child, ever did anything to harm either one of them, I would not defend her, not unless and until I knew for certain what happened. Another thing that really gets me is how they can set up accounts for donations to help with the search? I wouldn't give them one red cent. Force your buck-toothed daughter to talk and there wouldn't need to be a search!

[sherbertjello]

has anyone let authorities know about the link between the mystery nannies past "know addresses" and the links they provide on an actual map?

because something forms.

[Nancy]

I do not feel that Cindy had anything to do with Caylee's disappearance. I do believe that Casey has killed Caylee, either accidently or on purpose. Most likely because she was in the way of Casey having fun OR tired of Caylee getting all the attention from her parents. I think Casey is a psychopath. Psychopaths are very friendly, outgoing people for the most part they just don't have the ability to feel for others like normal people do. I think Cindy does know that Casey has done something to Caylee. I think she is in denial both to protect Casey and to keep alive the hope that Caylee is okay and will come home but deep down she KNOWS better. She told the police dept in the 911 call that the car smelled like death. SHE KNOWS. She's in denial. As the grandmother of a beautiful 3 yr old girl myself I can totally understand the pain Cindy must be going through. Casey cannot feel that pain. I don't believe it's Cindy's fault that Casey is a psychopath either. I think "bad seeds" are born in to all families periodically. It's no one's fault. My heart does go out to little Caylee. Bless her heart, the real victim here. Her life ended so soon. What a waste. I just pray that Casey will confess soon so that at least little Caylee can be found and layed to rest in a proper way. Please say a prayer for Caylee's family. I truly believe they are victims also in Casey's twisted heartless scheme.

[Tea]

sherbertjello, what do you see in those addresses? I mean, what do you see forming.

[Marcia]

I think Cindy is asking for donations so she can bail out her daughter!

[Sarah Garcia]

In regards to the alleged father Ortiz who passed away in 2007, he is NOT the father. He was 100 percent latino. This little girl would be much darker if he was the dad. My father in law is half mexican from his dads side and his mom was german and lithuanian. He is really dark, I don't see this at all with little Caylee. I don't think he is the dad.

[Sean]

Sarah Garcia-

While I am not sure that he is the father, don't take how someone looks as proof of ethnicity. My daughter is part Spanish, Portuguese, amongst others, and half Irish. She gets tan, but in general no one would ever no her mix. Plenty of blonde hair blue eyed puerto ricans out there, so I wouldn't ever go on that.

[Barbara]

Speculation, speculation, speculation! We can all sit in judgement of this family but until a body turns up we will never know what happened. Yes, the parents of Casey seem to be in state of denial, but I wouldn't want to think my child killed her own daughter either. Casey is the problem here and until the police crack the case, we may never know what happened, if it even happened by her hand. The whole case is bizarre, but if Caylee shows up, will we all be able to say we were wrong? I would like to see Caylee be alive and well but as time goes by it doesn't look good, so the parents are trying to save what they have left, Casey. As far as the attorney goes, he is in the position that he can't tell us anything that goes against attorney/client priviledge. So let the police do their work here. And let's tell Cindy Anthony to keep her mouth shut.. she started this whole thing with her 911 call and dead body smell. Being married to a ex-cop, she should have known better to remove possible evidence from the car. What was she thinking? I don't know which is worse, Casey's silence or Cindys non-stop media coverage. If Cindy doesn't want to be criticized by the media then tell her to stop making so many interviews. This should be about Caylee not the grandmother. Nancy Grace is on top of this and yes, she can be harsh, but most of us are thinking what she is saying. Casey needs a good interrogation and to be charged with murder. We have alot of cases where there was no body and the suspect got put on trial. I think the Florida cops know more than they are saying, but are just trying to lock up the case, as well they should be. So let's let them do their job and bring the baby back dead or alive. We don't want any loopholes that Casey can slip through, her attorney is smarter than we give him credit for. And for that matter Casey is no fool either, she is waiting this out to see what will get her the best deal and in the end that's exactly what we may have to give her to find Caylee. God bless the Police officers, CSI and any other government agents that are trying to bring Caylee back.

I wish people wouldn't go straight to the brother being the biological father, then the g'father ... there is obviously a reason why people would jump to that conclusion ... maybe happened in your own family? Can you just keep this out of it? It has no place in all of this. There would have been an abortion or an adoption more than likely and the child would probably have been born with 2 heads. Neither the g'parents or the brother had anything to do with this. They love her dearly. They are a normal family and they are NOT white trash. They are educated productive members of society that produced a daughter with a missing link ... 'the lying link krept in'. But if you read the b'friend and friends blogs Casey was a great mother, friend, g'friend. I think the stolen money is related to Caylee's disappearance. Unless she has had cleptomania as well all of her life. There are just people that are born patho liars and cleptos. Would be interesting to see what the credit cards wracked up ... clothes or electronics ... male or female items, generic pricey items. Could be some kind of pay off, and maybe wasn't enough. I hope against hope she is still alive.
