The Wacky World of Casey Anthony
September 10, 2008
We've got bloggers stealing trash, Lee Anthony destroying protesters’ signs, and Casey Anthony giving high fives. It would seem there is no end to the lunacy surrounding the Caylee Anthony case.
Before we get into these most recent developments, I would like to point out one thing I've learned since my return from Florida, and that is the fact that the "breaking" news you're getting from Nancy and Gretta is not necessarily breaking.
I found it humorous the other night when Gretta's show announced the protester fight that took place in front of the Anthony home as "breaking" news, when in fact it had occurred two or three days prior. I had the video of the fight online within an hour or so of the occurrence.
Then you have Nancy on the television talking about this bone discovery, which is supposedly "breaking news." I knew about that before I left. The only reason I did not mention it was because a spokesperson for EquuSearch had already told me that they were 99.9 percent positive they were animal bones.
I also find it funny that everyone is now jumping on the bandwagon regarding the book and movie deals. That is rehashed news from last week.
What I am trying to say is, don't get overly excited by everything they call "breaking" news. More often that not, it is tabloid fodder.
Getting back to the latest developments, can you believe someone actually took the trash from in front of the Anthony family home yesterday? I kid you not. I drove by the house about an hour or so before it happened. According to Myfoxspringfield.com, the woman, identified only as Lorraine, said she was a "blogger on MyFoxOrlando.com." Lorraine later reported that she found a pizza box, flowers, cards, and miscellaneous irrelevant items.
Meanwhile, Lee Anthony has been busy today as well. Perhaps taking the cue from his father, who allegedly assaulted a protester a few days ago, Lee grabbed a protester’s sign and attempted to destroy it by jumping up and down on it. His feeble attempt failed, and the lady and her sign were reunited a few moments later. Lee did get one good lick in—he tipped over a water dish the woman had set out for her dog. Go, Lee! <implied sarcasm>
And finally, what is up with Casey Anthony and the high five? I mean, come on, you have the entire country watching you, and you can't control yourself once you think they’re your out of sight? In case you haven't heard about this, it occurred on Tuesday when Casey and Lee were walking into her attorney's office. Once the pair thought they were out of sight, they smiled and each other and high fived. It remains unclear why, but it was tacky nonetheless.
Fun. Fun. Fun. Check back later for more updates on this bizarre case.

Sept. 10 - Casey Anthony is apparently set to be re-arrested tonight at any moment. It's being said that, perhaps, police have enough evidence now to charge Casey Anthony with murder.

Casey,
You had better hope that you get life in prison or something close because you won’t last long if you are freed (you probably won’t last long in prison either). You have not taken responsibiity for your actions and now, it’s time to pay the check.
It is very obvious that people want to see justice even if it was an accident. Probably because of the “I’m not telling and you can’t make me” attitude that you have created for the cameras. I believe that if you had shown some type of remorse or sign of saddness, things might have been different (people would have had compassion, as would a jury). But you have proven yourself to be only about you. You could care less about Caylee and it shows. If you think you are free because you dumped her to prove something to your mom, think again Casey.

At first it was an intriguing mystery, with clues and evidence being doled out, almost like a whodunit game. Now it seems that we are all becoming as whacked out and dysfunctional as the family at the center of the storm. The less real information that becomes available, the crazier the speculation becomes. Insanity begets insanity. Ha. Irony.

You keep talking about how ridiculous it is that the media is swarming all over this case, yet that seems to be the topic of the majority of your articles in the past few months? People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. I don't think you are on a perfect seat to cast judgment...
Posted by: Megan | September 10, 2008 at 11:27 PM
Wow you are rooting for Lee since he tipped over the dog's water dish? WOW....is all I can say.
What Lee did was wrong, and he embarrassed himself on National Television. So yes I will say GO LEE!! For looking like a complete idiot on National Television! WOOHOO

What about that seizure Casey Anthony supposedly had an some guy took her to the E.R.?
These Anthony people and their friends are crazier than a s... house rat !
Posted by: ignertbliss | September 11, 2008 at 01:47 AM
Does anyone know anything about Casey Anthony haveing A seizure and some guy took her to the E.R. ?
I think those people are crazy n their friend's are crazy and their about to drive me CRAZY...
Posted by: ignertbliss | September 11, 2008 at 02:06 AM
If Cindy and George really want the public to "search for the missing child ,then give us something to go on,where does one begin to search? Florida?New York?Maine?Canada?
They keep saying someone took her..well who is that?They say the kidnappers are being watched...(by who) ..well that must mean the Kidnappers are "known" to them.And why no ransom?They say Casey cant tell all because it would put Caylee in danger...hmmmmmmm 12 weeks have past...so it seems pretty dangerous to me.Of course this whole story is crazy and I believe the circumstantial evidence so far points to something terrible and the mothers(Casey)involvment

Ummmmmmm RACHAEL, perhaps you need to refresh your memory on the definition of sarcasm. David was NOT rooting for Lee, rather pointing out very effectively Lee's great, big, brave heroic action of picking on a dog by dumping out the H2O in the doggie dish!
You're both on the same page!
Bring home Caylee, and 9/11 is an appropriate day to do it!

He was teasing him about making an @$$ out of himself.

Duh-Racheal,
She was teasing him about making an butt out of himself.

I am often dissapointed with the so called, "breaking news".
The media, especially Nancy Grace and Greta, should be well aware that the public is closely following this story and should not tease us with the promise of new news if there is none. Rather, It would be nice to see these reporters actually follow up on the leads we already have and arrange more interviews with Casey's friends and past employer(s). The interview with "Nate", Tony Lazzaro's roommate didn't lead us to Caylee, but having a first hand account of any particular moment in the Wacky World of Casey is still somewhat insightful into the type of people she was around and her demeanor during the time her daughter went missing.
Posted by: Youknowwho | September 11, 2008 at 08:52 AM
Dear ID Detective: I agree with your reporting-Breaking News is, in many instances, Old News. I have a few questions: Why would law enforcement allow the circus to go on in light of the fact that they have loads of evidence leading them to believe that Caylee is dead? Casey was the last person with her and never reported her disappearance. Isn't the suspicion that a crime has taken place enough to arrest her-possibly without bond? This is turning out to be a capital case. Her present situation could land her in jail for less than 20 years and it comes with parole I think. She isn't going to talk at Jose's digs nor at home so why allow her to be fodder for the media and possibly some lunatic protesting out side her home? It just doesn't seem proper or right.
Last two question: On June 15th Caylee went to the assisted living facility that her great grandparents lived in. Was Casey at the airport picking up Amy? When did Casey start using her parent's car in the month of June?
Posted by: Abby | September 11, 2008 at 09:20 AM
David, I so agree with you about OLD "breaking news". Nancy Grace & Greta HAVE to entice for ratings. BTW, Nancy Grace had one of the most highest rated shows on Cable a week or so ago, so that's paying off for her. Lee
Anthony's antics were silly come to think about it. But kicking over the dog's water bowl......NOT NICE LEE! The high 5 (another silly antic), took place at the Orange County Correctional Facility. Casey was there to receive her "schedule" for the week from her case manager. I guess they thought they had made it into the building unscathed, so with no one looking.......WRONG! Last but certainly not least we have our potential dumpster diver Sherlock Holmes aka "Lorraine". Discarded trash is fair game according to OCSD so nothing wrong if you want to put on your gloves and do some investigating. Alas! She did come across one interesting find; an empty beer bottle. Endless possibilites there ya think? Just speculating. Things ARE wacky, but one fact still remains; WHERE IS CAYLEE?
Posted by: Marianne | September 11, 2008 at 09:37 AM
I gave up on Greta as soon as she started covering the presidential candidates (yawn). Nancy Grace is like a pit bull when any member of her panel of pundits starts to downplay the strength of the evidence against Casey and with the newly retained attorney for Cindy and George, for which I am grateful. I know I am desperate for progress in this case. It seems it goes one step forward, three steps back, especially since Jose Baez crawled out from under a rock to defend Casey (I wonder if he powders her bottom, too?). Casey is "not permitted" to discuss Caylee's disappearance with her family, which might explain her six-hour appointments with Baez. There's gotta be tension in that house so thick you could cut it with a knife (a freshly washed one) no matter how optimistic Cindy Anthony tries to appear. Casey's probably delighted to watch herself on TV at Baez' office without the presence of her family.

I've been checking this site everyday for updates, keep up the great work. We all appreciate it.

High fives??? Are both of the Anthony spawn completely nuts??? What purpose did it serve and do you suppose they knew it would be caught on camera (hence feeding into their already demented need to be stars)?
I think the whole family is in need of multiple sessions of shock treatment - or at least high doses of Haldol and Thorazine. Maybe then they would just shut up and go away!
Posted by: Here | September 11, 2008 at 11:24 AM
This whole thing is so incredibly sad...my prayers are with poor lil Caylee...I believe she is with God now...have ya'll seen this poem a gal has been posting on other blogs?It made me cry.....
*****************************************************
From Caylee to Mommy
Mommy
Why won't you tell everyone where I am?
Everybody is looking for me
but they can't find me
I'm right here where you left me mommy!
Can't you hear me mommy?
I keep calling for you
But you keep turning away
I thought you would come back and get me
but you never came
I'm still here where you put me
but I don't look the same!
Mommy why won't you tell them where I am
I'm scared, I'm all alone
Why can't I come home?
I miss my bed, and my doggies,
and grandma and pa pa too
My sandbox, and playhouse
I miss being with you too!
Mommy why did you leave me here?
What did I do?
Did I make you mad?
Did I make you sad?
Was I being bad?
I Love you mama and I don't understand!
Why won't you just tell them where I am?
You know where you left me
I saw you drive off
you didn't even look back
I prayed to Jesus cause I was so scared,
And angels came and stayed with me
and they took me to this place called "Heaven"
It's so beautiful here mama
There is angels and singing
And a man that says he is my Father
His name is Jesus
He said he loves me
And nobody will ever hurt me here
I get to run, and play
There are so many kids here, and little babies too!
But I don't see you and grandma and pa pa
I've looked everywhere for you!
I asked jesus If I could go visit you
And he said I have to wait for you
Until you die
but he said he doesn't know if you will come to Heaven
he said you may go to hell
What's hell mommy?
He said that you hurt me, and Jesus doesn't like it
When people hurt children
But he said he will forgive you
If you ask him....but he said you have to mean it!
and he said he will know if you do
because he knows peoples hearts!
I told Jesus I loved you
and he smiled at me and said "I know you do my child"
She loved you too!
But she didn't cherish you
he said you didn't protect me!
He said his heart is Weeping for you!
he said he loves you mommy
He said He loves all his children!
He said you are lying,
and you won't tell anybody
what you did to me!
He said you won't tell them where you left me!
You won't tell them what you did
he said you will get into a lot of trouble
If anyone finds out!
Just tell them mommy
Please show them where I am
So grandma and pa pa don't worry anymore
Mommy why are you saying
You left me with Zanny!
Who is Zanny mama?
I don't remember zanny
you said she was my nanny
What is a nanny mommy?
Why arn't you crying?
Don't you miss me mommy?
i miss you!
I love you so much
and wish I could come home
but Jesus said I have to stay here
Because this is where innocent children come
and Its beautiful mama
prettier than blanchard park
and many more things to do!
I get to run and play and sing
Laugh, and swim and swing!
I turned 3 here and the angels sang me Happy Birthday!
I sang with them too!
It was so beautiful mama and so loud
did you hear them sing to me?
Oh yeah mommy
there are animals here
doggies, and kitties
and horsies too
Jesus gave me my very own doggie
the very first day I came here!
He told me to take care of my doggie
and that he is my responsiblity
to love and care for him!
Mommy please tell them where you put me
and tell Jesus sorry
because if you don't I will never ever
get to see you again!
i love you
and I miss you
I will never forget you mommy
or grandma and pa pa too!
Caylee Marie Anthony

I agree with Tea. At first, this case was quite the mystery and now it is a chaotic circus!!!! As far as the "Lorraine" chick who dug through the trash....I wouldn't doubt she was paid or encouraged to do so by a reporter who had a deadline to meet with no new interesting story about the case. Why else would she go through it at the edge of her drive-way and street for all to see? Why not in the privacy of her garage or back patio? That incident was soooo set up!!
Also, my daughter has a friend that has basically become part of the family. She spends every weekend with us. Anyway, last weekend she had to babysit for a lady and her husband all night. I called to check in on her and to see how things were going. Apparantly, the wife was gone but the husband was staying home. I didn't understand why she had to babysit when the father was going to be there. I tried calling her mother to let her know the husband had decided to stay home and I didn't feel right with this beautiful 11 year old girl babysitting. I couldn't reach her mother and when I tried calling the 11 year olds cell back, it went straight to voicemail for the rest of the night. I cried all night with worry about the possible situation the little girl was in. The next day, I looked in the mirror and my eyes were incredible swollen from the tears. No amount of makeup could disguise the fact I had been crying. They stayed that way alllllll day. The point of this story is this..... I have never once seen any photo of Casey, Cindy, George or Lee with swollen eyes from crying. None of them have been crying at all. Casey cried once in court and that was briefly. If my daughter(s) were missing or in danger, I would look like crap!!! Even if I had a few good days of no crying, my face and body language would still be ugh! They say they care so much, but they certainly aren't showing it. I guess they want to make sure they look good in front of the cameras.
BTW, my daughters friend ended up being ok. Thank GOD!!

The Anthony family is nuts. Watch how they behave. Obviously, Casey's problems started with them and ended with her daughter, Caylee. God Bless that little Angel for living two pitiful years in that nut house! This is a family that puts the D in dysfunction. Although, Cindy and George are "victims" according to their attorney, I think they should be jailed for the bad parenting of Casey. They created this monster and ENABLED her to screw up her life, theirs and ultimately end their granddaughter's. They are still making a mess of things; setting up confrontations and then yelling victim when walls come tumbling down. Maybe God can forgive, society doesn't have to!
Posted by: dolly | September 11, 2008 at 04:46 PM
Today is Septemeber 11, 2008. This country mourns the 9/11 tradegies that happened 7 years ago. Enough about Casey Anthony already. She is a worthless, self-centered, lying, child killer. Justice will be served and Casey is going to spend the rest of her natural life in prison. Sadly, we all know that Caylee is dead. The little girl will eventually get justice. Cindy and George will eventually wake up. They may walk away with over a million dollars and I hope that they can find their joy in the money since precious little Caylee is now dead. The whole Anthony family is warped!
Posted by: Tina | September 11, 2008 at 04:47 PM
I don't blame Nancy Grace for holding onto this story for dear life. Stories like this don't come around every day.
And, unless new news comes out, old news is the only way to hold onto it.
Me thinks things are gonna get kind've boring soon with the lawyer reigning in Cindy and George.
Anger at protesters isn't nearly as "fun" as all of the crazy things Casey, Cindy and George were saying before.
IMO, that lawyer is worth every penny they will pay him, but from a follower of this crazy case, he is sure stopping the flow of intrigue.
My guess is, unless the full DNA tests are released or a body is found or charges are pressed soon, the tv stories will begin to wither and the protesters will start to go back to their normal lives.
And, unfortunately...eventually... some other sweet little child will go missing or be killed....
I am praying not soon.
Posted by: Charisse | September 11, 2008 at 06:31 PM
Tina...kinda boring...this is not a soap opera..this is real life...you seem to be one of those people who just get off on the drama...on george and cindy of all people...this is not about george and cindy..this is about caylee...BORING? I will google this case every spare moment of the day to see if they found that poor little baby girl...to see if they put casey's scrawny asssse in jail where it belongs...that is what you should be concerned with...NOT THE GRANDPARENTS...oh they are being reiled in by a lwayer and not talking so your interest is dwindling....how pathetic.
Posted by: focus for caylee | September 11, 2008 at 07:43 PM
and by the way...fun...how does that word even fit into this case...you get your jolly's out of others life falling apart..the way you wrote your post as if it were a tv show...not real...like a real baby didn't really exist and murdered...and your worried about all YOUR FUN WITHERING AWAY....

TO MICHELLE M. WAMBOLD,
Such a beautiful, heart-wrenching poem! It left me in tears.
Posted by: Dolores Sampson | September 11, 2008 at 07:54 PM
To reiterate, you (David) have certainly been on top of the case. Being spoiled this way, it now almost seems as if CNN and Fox are bored with the story as everything that comes out of there is indeed old.
As far as the trash is concerned, a concern of mine was voiced today by a judge who said he couldn't believe the police hadn't already been getting the trash. I also thought it was ok for law enforcement to bug any residence or vehicle to further get clues but haven't heard anything about that. And thank you for posting the info on the unlikelihood that evidence was destroyed by gators. Nobody has mentioned that, either. Now, to look at the rest of my list...
David, I know you probably won't do this, but I am dying to hear from you as to what you have finally figured out probably happened in this case. It really hasn't been speculated by too many, (save for the insane-type troll bloggers)and forgive me if that is going too far. Thanks again for all your professional input!
Posted by: ladysheila | September 11, 2008 at 09:02 PM
Nancy Grace and Greta must do their shows as if their viewers have not heard the news before. Sometimes, it is the first time I hear anything new about the case. In fact, I am catching up on old news now by reading your articles, Mr. Lohr! I think all three of you are level-headed and willing to give the best info you have to us, John Q. Public, and I thank you all for that.
Posted by: Sherry C. | September 11, 2008 at 09:32 PM
We should all remember that Casey is thriving on all this attention. We need to have her back in jail, as she isn't going to tell anyone where Kaylee is. If she did all the attenntion would be gone from her, and her world would cease to exist as she knows it now. She would then have to come up with more elaborate lies about how someone else murdered her baby that she cared so much about. You know the one that kept her from going out and having all the good times, and partying every night. The one that she took away from the Grandparent's that loved her so much. Why these parents are still trying to believe Casey is beyond me. They, of all people know how sick she is. She needs alot of help, and she is not going to get it if they keep treating her with kid gloves. I wish for them to have peace in their hearts.
Posted by: Gerry | September 11, 2008 at 11:01 PM
Do ya'll think Casey will get away with this ?
I have kept up with this case and it gets more insane every day.
Those ppl. are crazy!
I really hope Caylee is alive but as the "Anthony" clan loves to say.."My gut" feelings are she is dead.
It is soooo sad that baby had to live with those sick twisted freak's.
Posted by: ignertbliss | September 12, 2008 at 02:32 AM
For Casey not showing that she even cares a little about Caylee's whereabout is a bad move, perhaps she already know the truth so that she couldn't care less. She should be the one who cares the most but instead, Casey's parents are. How about those fake checks? If someone is committing the "all or none" charging down the street and get them all way of life, this the the "ALL" for sure.
Posted by: MANGO | September 12, 2008 at 03:47 AM
PS. Little Caylee is probably eaten by wild animals by now if she is still nowhere to be found.
Posted by: MANGO | September 12, 2008 at 03:51 AM
someone needs to send the poem to mommie dearest.i worry and pray for baby CAYLEE every day. may god have mercy on mommie dearest soul because none of us real mommies will.
Posted by: Tracy | September 12, 2008 at 09:09 AM
i just wanted to say a couple of things... First off i hate to think of little calie out there sumwhere all by herself. id hate to think that casey really did kill her daughter, that infact i think we will ever know. if she was with one of her mothers "friends" or "the nanny" dont you think casey would of brought calie home already/ i hate to say this but casey is smarter than we think she is... obviosly casry know exactly where she is and she must be sumwhere that casey know they will never find her. thats why she is being such a stone when asked where she is. how could a mother kill her kid for a little bit of freedom?? she could have given calie to her parents.....just given my 2 cents thanks. i follow this case everyday almost infactuated(sp) because i know how casey feels being a single mother that can just drop wat ur doing and go out. but thats being a mother and if she didnt want that responsibility she could have done numerous things to not b a mother. i love MY kids to death and no man or a lil bit more freedom would EVER make me harm my kids. caesy get it together and bring your daughter home.. when your time is up and your standing at the gates of hell i hope you burn!!!! valerie
Posted by: valerie | September 12, 2008 at 09:26 AM
I understand Casey Anthony has just been charged with TEN additional counts of forgery from using Amy Huizenga's checkbook. Does anyone know if she can be rearrested (PLEASE!!) again? They really need to put this gal behind bars and KEEP her there, not only for her own and her family's safety but to keep some sanity in their neighborhood. Maybe if Casey is kept out of sight and out of mind in jail, people will leave the family alone and Casey won't be getting the attention she seems to crave.
Posted by: Chris in MI | September 12, 2008 at 11:47 AM
First i'd like to say that we all need to remember that there is a little child of god out there (whether dead or alive) and we all need to be sending up extra prayers for ALL of the anthony family!! (casey most of all!!) We all can be as angry as we want, but she still has to answer to a higher power. ALL THAT IS DONE IN THE DARK, WILL COME TO LIGHT!!! I think we all remember the scott and lacy peterson case where scott peterson was convicted of killing his wife and unborn child, it was all a matter of time before the REAL scott peterson was revealed. Give it time people, justice will be served!! If not here on earth, than in hell, but it WILL be served. As for the rest of the anthony family, like i said, we all have to just pray for them. Prayers work a lot better than anger or stone throwing. Take care everyone, and be well!! BTW, i am a father of four boys.
Posted by: Lamar | September 12, 2008 at 01:17 PM
To focus for Caylee, it was me, not Tina who wrote the comments, not because I am bored about the case, but, because there is a reality. Most news media has already moved on and Greta has begun to move on, too.
That leaves Nancy Grace, and, as was pointed out in the article which was what I was responding to, Nancy has kept it going by rehashing old news as if it was breaking news.
Similarly, the police have also kept the attention on the case by drawing out the arrests, even though she is being arrested now for things that we have known she had done from the beginning of the case.
The reality is, if the grandparents actually shut up and no further breakthroughs come, even Nancy Grace will stop covering this case eventually. Though, since her show focuses on advocating for victims, it may not happen until a new case comes around.
Unfortunately, we live in a time when things like this happen all too often.
How many stories have we seen like this before? I still wonder about what happened to Trenton Duckett - whose case was very similar in a lot of ways to this case. I was drawn to that case the same way I am drawn to this case.
I wondered if Melinda sold him for drug money or killed him hoping to be more romantically attractive to a potential fling or if she just killed him to get back at Trenton's father. The answers went with her to the grave and the child was never found.
I have wondered about Trenton a lot while watching this case. At least, with Caylee, there is forensic evidence that she is actually dead, which at least gives some degree of closure - as compared to Trenton Duckett's case, where there was no closure at all.
For Cindy and George's sake, I am praying that they find her body and that the truth would come out....
Posted by: Charisse | September 12, 2008 at 02:04 PM
Oh, and I meant to say that I used the word, "fun" in quotes, not to demean the case, but because of the circus this has been.
If George and Cindy can shut up, and George and Lee can stop fighting with protestors, there will be fewer elderly folks doing bus tours to see their house.
If they can simply not do anything "camera worthy" for even a whole week, the news cameras and protestors will begin to move on. Most have already.
Posted by: Charisse | September 12, 2008 at 02:48 PM
I find this whole circus to be deplorable. Casey Anthony appears to be eating up all the hoopla that surrounds her, with her oversized white sunglasses and that dispicable smug look that she always has on her ugly face. I think she is so deranged that she actually is reveling in the attention she is getting. Her parents and brother as just as caught up in it, and now it seems to be all about the money that can be made. It is unbearable to watch, pathetic to comprehend, and a real sorry state of us as a Nation.
Posted by: Laurie | September 12, 2008 at 06:35 PM
I want to know how you sleep at night Casey? I mean after all you and Scott Peterson are one in the same. YOUR A CHILD KILLER. You know that when you die you will NOT go to heaven. You signed the deal with the devil. YOU suck Casey.. WHY dont you give your daughter a proper burial? YOU killed her YOU owe it to her to bury her correctly.
YOUR a liar and a MURDER...

Wouldn't it be awesome if Caylee was found in another country with a nice family. Yes, I know I am dreaming but that's what my heart wants to believe.
Posted by: Sandy from MO | September 13, 2008 at 12:53 AM
maybe big brother Lee, the high fiver had something to do with hiding baby caylees little body.But all of your comments help me to get through this.Because as a mother, grandmother,greatgrand mother,Im not alone with my grief.My prayers are with all of us with breaking hearts,too bad Caseys heart isnt more like ours.
Posted by: jeanfromgeorgia | September 13, 2008 at 08:57 AM
Nancy has credibility as an unrelenting journalist and former prosecutor. She also is unafraid to inject the human element in as a Mom of twins.
Greta has been a husge disappointment. at first I thought her blogs were ingenious, because people can blog her, watch her, feel connected. When she started dishing out the Fox news propaganda about Barack and Michelle Obama and began starting the rumors about Hillary women going blindly for McCain and extolling the virtues of the wacky uber- conservative Palin--who has all of my female friends scared to death--I came to realize she is just another Fox Troll/Shill.

This is a little detail that i noticed, but it speaks volumes about her vanity and concern over her appearance on tv. Of course shes wearing the obligatory " Wheres Caylee " shirt but notice it is always tied up in the back to make it more "figure flattering". She had it tied up leaving jail the second time, and running into Jose's office. I was a cheerleader sponsor and the girls used to do that with their team t-shirts bc they werent figure flattering. I thought it was funny and cute with the girls but in this case its sickening....

For those of you who run this site and bring us all the updates of this crazy saga, thank you and keep up the great work! I have never in my life have come across such a story than this one, I live here in Pa. and I work for Common Pleas court and in all my experince and what I hear in a courtroom everyday, never have I ever heard such crap, its just unreal!
I understand people and their anger down in Florida, their tax dollars are being spent, people are giving their free time and today free time is very precious to many, people grieving for Caylee that don't even know her, you have a family who wants the help from the public,and the police but when the truth keeps pointing to a 22 yr. old woman the mother, the family turns their back on law officials, and volunteers, yes all this is just bound to bring good honest people to show their rage.
I see what the prosecution is doing, they are making sure to get Casey on every crime Casey has committed, such as, child neglect/abuse, theft,bad checks etc. because when it all comes out and it so happens she accidently killed Caylee she would probably be able to get involuntary manslaughter which can be a slap on the wrist, get 15 yrs. serve seven and you are out. With all these other charges along with involuntary manslaughter these other charges can be made to run concurrant with the inv/manslaughter which makes for a longer sentence. Hopefully the Prosecution will not give the defense to many plea options, such as a "best intrest plea" where Casey will never admit to any crime but in her best intrest to go along with it all because of so much evidence against her. A man received this plea for having sexual intercourse with a 3 month yr. old and a 1 yr. old both were his daughters, he got 5 yrs. what a sham.
I don't know how a jury could be selected even with a change of venue, because this is a nationwide story, and it looks like everyone puts the guilt on Casey, the jury pool is already contaminated. Casey's attorney is a joke and has already made mistakes, yeah he is probono so what, his law work shows he is doing this for nothing, he is butchering this case and Casey keeps smiling thinking her probono attorney will save her, I can't wait to see what his defense is gonna be.
Casey all those law books you have read and probably will read again when you go back to jail, those law books are probably all expired, laws are updated and changed all the time,law books are updated every month in your Law Library at your local courthouse.
On a last note here I see a civil suit here with Zeneldia Gonzalas(sp) the suffering this woman had been put through because of her name, screams lawsuit and she deserves it. An innocent woman dragged through the mudd because somone else can't not be truthfull, she deserves restitution and you know what so does the people of Florida they to deserve a restitution charge to be put against Casey.

I am a mother of five I have a daughter about the same age as Casey and she has two year old daughter,I think if my daughter had fed me a story as Casey did I would go nuts on my daughter and my husband and I would demand to know where our grand daughter is. There would be no call to police untill I got the truth out of her. And I would then do the right thing and turn her in. And on the other hand I would still love my daughter and I would visit her in prison because she is still my daughter but prison is where she would belong.

I don't understand all of this. Am I the only one, sitting here behind a computer screen, crying for a baby, not much older than my own, laying in a cold ditch somewhere or town apart by alligators? This baby has got to be dead... that seems obvious. Psychologists, criminal profilers are saying the birth mother (I say because she is no mother), sits there wielding her "power over" us all, because it's all about her, it's not about Caylee. If it's about Caylee, she shuts up. She wants herself to be the subject, the topic.
If they know this, isn't there a way to manipulate her mind into spilling it? These people figure out their manipulation and lies... can't they play the same game in reverse? Make it about her somehow, only if she tells?
I say put her in solitare... make NOTHING about her except eating and using a toilet. Let her sit in a dark, lonely cell, with NO attention on her at all... until she cracks. Don't even give her the privelige of bathing... she's vain in her self absorbed world, so let her get dirty and smelly and ugly. MAKE her crack! MAKE her spill her guts! MAKE her live with herself and HERSELF ONLY! MAKE her have to go into her own mind, instead of clouding every one else's!
If we can't find that poor baby with searches... push that witch over the edge to find the baby for Gods sake!

I pray to God, these Parents (George and Cindy) will stop protecting their mentally Ill daughter .And they will come to grips,with FACT they have a sick mentally ill daughter, that has been totally responsible for their grandchild's death. I know I have a mentally Ill daughter and excepted it. That had a daughter (Granddaughter) at 19.. By the grace of god my husband and I , when she was 2and 1/2 years old, we hired a lawyer for custody papers, are my granddaughter most likely would have been a Caylee story .. This Girl is 100% my daughter ..LIAR ,THIEF AND A FRAUD !! ALL ABOUT ATTENTION ! Casey is very ILL, and her Parents need to step back , get away, and look at the real picture and except their daughter is mentally ill .. That baby is not coming back ..She is has her wings and is a precious angel ..
