Casey Anthony NOT GUILTY & Sentencing Thread 6

[JimFitz]

And neither does the cylinder laundry bag that Caylee's body was in. The one that was sold in a set of two along with the rectangular one that was left at the Anthony home.

And neither does the duct tape that was unusual as it was discontinued in 2007 and the only place it was found was at the Anthony house.

And neither does the blanket that came from the Anthony's home that was with Caylee's body.

And neither does the gatorade bottle of chloroform that was found near the body ... and odd how there were searches for how to make chloroform done by Casey on the computer months before Caylee went missing.

And neither does the strand of Caylee's hair with decomp banding that was found in the trunk.

However, the fact that all of these things are tied to Casey, along with the way that Casey handled it all, tells me this had to have been a cover up for something more than accidental drowning.

If it were an accident, why would you make an accident look like a murder? That keeps ringing in my mind.

I'm not sure it was an accident. I think something much stranger went on in that house. I think George has a big part in this, that man is weird/creepy. I could see it as an accident where Casey was partying all night drunk and fell asleep next to the pool while she should've been watching Caylee. Dad comes home and finds baby dead with Casey sleeping. They both panic because Casey is drunk and fell asleep next to the pool. Daughter starts to freak about getting arrested/in trouble and the dad tells her to calm down...we can take care of this.

What seems so odd to me is that George testifies how the smell of the car is very distinct " he knows the smell of death" but when he picks up the car he does not call his wife?? Weird. Things don't fit together.

Defense attorneys Jose Baez and Cheney Mason celebrated their victory shortly after the not-guilty verdicts were read with a champagne toast at Terrace 390, a restaurant onNorth Orange Ave.

But as word of their gathering got out, people clustered in front of the restaurant's glass doors, where spectators could see attorneys hanging out with about 20 other people inside, including TV personality Geraldo Rivera.

"They shouldn't be celebrating," said Wanda Tyler of Orlando. "A little girl is dead and they helped her killer go free."

Spectator Patrick Fowler, of Tampa, called out for Baez to leave the restaurant. He didn't think justice had been served and made that known. Baez, who was drinking what appeared to be a beer, looked up and smiled a few times.

One of his drinking companions, a tall, slender man wearing a plaid shirt, came close to the door and made a lewd gesture with hand.

A couple of minutes later, Mason moved closer to the door and made a lewd gesture at Fowler.

Well I guess that means the photo was real. Really classy, Mason. Nice.

EXACTLY! YOu have to look at the BIG picture here. There wasn't only 1 or 2 things pointing to Casey it was a laundry list! She also diverted people from the body, and putting the police on a wild goose chase trying to locate Zanny the Nanny! She DIDN'T EXIST! This was done by design! In the mean time the body was decomposing in that swamp. She knew exactly what she was doing. Too many coincidental things pointing directly to Casey!

Cindy was with him when he picked up the car.

What photo? Link?

 

[SweetJoy]

We did

She was the last person to see her alive, she didn't report her missing until confronted after 31 days, she continued to lie after wards, everything connected to the found body can be connected her, some exclusively (the shirt cinched that one). the deleted files is a conscientiousness of guilt, the stories in the OS were not evidence, she asked for one more day on the 911 call, the smell of death in the trunk, the banded hair that maternally mitochondria (sp) connect to only Caylee, and duct tape wrapped around a head is murder.

There was no abuse proven, there was no proof of an accident offered

I believe she had a hand in her daughters death - my issue is with nobody can say exactly what happened. They just dont know. How do you prove - beyond a reasonable doubt - what your best guess is?

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

But, the IRS sits ready and waiting for her. She isn't quite Richard Hatch...but they will be keeping a closer eye on her as well as addressing the taxes, penalties, late fees and interest on her failure to report $200,000 in income.

Baez will take the Anthony's to court saying they're the ones that really got that money to pay for their DD's defense.

I said it earlier, but CM did the same thing until he was hired by the defense. He was on TV saying Casey was guilty. HE IS NO DIFFERENT THAN WHAT HE IS LASHING OUT ABOUT. HE IS A JOKE!

Exactly.

So it isn't hypocritcal for him to say this when he himself did interviews as a legal analyst BEFORE he signed on the defense team and proclaimed she'd be found guilty or plea out and get at least life in prison?

Again...

at first I thought he was referring to the Prosecution then realized they haven't said diddly. i think he was referring to the lawyers that have been on HLN, Nancy Grace show, etc.

He was referring to those shows and commentators. But the OCSO (I think) had a press conference saying that from the beginning they said they weren't going to talk publicly about the case...they'd wait until after a verdict...and they didn't (talk publicly, until today).

Again with respect. I don't think that is true for these threads. I did come in fairly late -- perhaps on thread 4. I consistently argued that I did not think that it was a cut and dried murder case although I thought Casey was guilty of something. I wasn't beaten up, nor did I see anyone else beaten up for much more pro-defense views than mine. DNoyes comes to mind. Treated respectfully or ignored.

Having said that -- I have been hung out to dry and bashed up by an in-group on another thread (mentioning no names) so I know how it feels. I just have not seen it in these threads myself.

to paragraph one, and "do tell" about paragraph 2!

I didn't listen to it either so I am just guessing here. It sounds like the jury was only interested in the prosecution proving the defense theory was wrong. They didn't care about all that other "stuff." If the defense had opened with, "Aliens came and abducted Caylee," the jurors would have wanted the prosecution to show them that that theory wasn't correct.

I know the opening statement by Baez made me sit up and listen. I did assume the prosecution would address it but when they didn't, it didn't matter to me because they chose to ignore the ridiculous and focus on the facts. That was convincing enough for me but I wasn't on the jury.

I agree.

Whattaya mean you only come here when planning a WDW trip!?

Just a heads up for next time == Michael Jackson's cardiologist is on trial in Sept, so we'll probably have a thread on that .... (or six or 10)!

I so will NOT be on those threads. If anyone wants First Post advice, let me know.

How can you put someone on ignore?

Go to your User CP

On the left hand side under "Settings & Options" Click "Edit Ignore List" Type in the name of the offense poster and click "okay"

Thanks!!!

Will this work for certain family members, too? LOL!!

It's called "caller ID" if they don't live with you. If they do, you're out of luck!

Will also work to click on the user's name, then View Public Profile. Click on the User List tab and choose "add to ignore list."

It's just a little more instant.

Had to come post that Jeff Ashton will be on NBC Today show tomorrow morning at 7:08 am as per martha sugalski tweet.

Thanks for the info!

I guess that's what a "classy Southern gentlemen" in the 21st century is.

She does not owe any money to her defense team, according to Nacy Grace.

It's a puzzle meant to be put together. When gathering every piece of information, the puzzle is laid out for you. This, I feel, is when people say that common sense kicks in. Not everything is black and white.

For me, the puzzle put together spells out guilty. Unfortunately, it didn't to the jury.

My only hope is that Casey lives a miserable life. I don't care if that sounds cruel. To me, it's not cruel enough.

I'm not sure it was an accident. I think something much stranger went on in that house. I think George has a big part in this, that man is weird/creepy. I could see it as an accident where Casey was partying all night drunk and fell asleep next to the pool while she should've been watching Caylee.

What seems so odd to me is that George testifies how the smell of the car is very distinct " he knows the smell of death" but when he picks up the car he does not call his wife?? Weird. Things don't fit together.

A couple things here:

1. For the record, Cindy went with George to pick up the car.

2. If George had anything to do with this, do you honestly think he would be stupid enough to open the trunk with the tow truck guy standing right there? When the guy said it smelled, George could have simply ignored it or made an excuse. Why open it right there?

3. Would an ex-detective really not have a better way to dispose of the car that he knew would eventually smell? I know a firefighter in Orlando that is on the rescue dive team. He spends the vast majority of his time retrieving cars out of the lakes and retention ponds in the area. People are always putting their cars in there on purpose and by accident. The amoeba infested lakes would cover up the smell and get rid of the DNA.

4. Would an ex-detective really not have a better way to dispose of the body? He could have buried Caylee deep in the woods in an actual grave that he dug deep into the ground where she wouldn't be found for ages. Would he really try to cover up by tossing her 20 feet into the woods a 1/4 mile from the house?

I'll give you George is creepy. I think the whole Anthony family is odd. But I can't believe George wouldn't have done a much better cover up if he had truly been present when Caylee was first found.

I heard that too.

ITA!

I'm saddened by the outcome of this case. I have been thinking about poor Caylee all night and on the verge of tears thinking about her.

I'm now going to go cuddle and kiss my sweet 4 month old baby to try and make myself feel better.

Going back over those pictures I can't for the life of me figure out why the prosecution didn't enter those into evidence((not that the jury would've paid attention to it))

I mean the gatorade bottle with the chloroform and the syringe of chloroform and her diary entry from June 21st.

All that could've gone to connect her to Caylee's death

 

[Mosoh]

I believe she had a hand in her daughters death - my issue is with nobody can say exactly what happened. They just dont know. How do you prove - beyond a reasonable doubt - what your best guess is?

They did for me.

It is not reasonable to believe -

her child drowned she didn't report it, lied to her parents regarding her whereabouts and lied to friends about Caylee whereabouts, deletes searches for neck breaking, chloroform etc, breaks into her fathers shed (while lying as to where she is) asks for one more day when finally caught up to, abandons the car she admits smells like something died in it ,her child is found wearing a shirt that was not in the Anthony home and she sat in jail for three years protecting a father she accused of rape -

are all just stuff that happens.

You won't get a confession or a smoking gun, but the proof is there for those who care to see it.

 

[zalansky]

First - I need to know how to hide someone on the DIS. 8 years here and I have never wanted to hide someone, until now.

I am sick about the verdict. However I can see where the alternate juror said George seemed to be untruthful. I was on his side until the story about the mistress. A married man would not go to another womans home, alone and hang out. The "mistress" was trash and I don't trust her either.

I agree with all comments made about the jury. They went in today dressed to go home today, which means they deliberated a few hours yesterday. After not speaking at all for 31 days? I don't buy it. Not one person on that jury thought she was guilty? I am sad to say it, but I think they just wanted to go home. Maybe they were angry some missed vacations and they all missed two holiday weekends sitting in a hotel room. I am appaled at their quick decision and YES I would be appaled at just as quick a guilty verdict.

I LOVE Jeff Ashton but I think he may have hurt the case by laughing at Bozo during his closing arguments.

At any rate - this hurts my heart as it does the majority of you. There was no justice for Caylee today and my faith in our "justice" system is shattered.

Scott Peterson should appeal. And he was guilty as sin too.

Tells you that this little girl touched a lot of hearts and that all those hearts are broken tonight

She really did. The video of her visiting her great-grandfather the day before Casey murdered her was just on TV.

I was riding back home on last day of vacation when my cell phone alerted on the verdict.

I just don't understand how they came to that decision.

Poor Caylee. No justice for Caylee.

Casey will get hers when she dies.

Or sooner, I hope. I don't believe she'll stay out of trouble. If she was so confident about lying and what she could get away with before this, can you imagine her now? We have not heard the end of Casey Anthony, and it won't be good.

I'm not sure it was an accident. I think something much stranger went on in that house. I think George has a big part in this, that man is weird/creepy. I could see it as an accident where Casey was partying all night drunk and fell asleep next to the pool while she should've been watching Caylee.

Good try, but LisaR's Kronk Theory was funnier.

Wonder if Lee and Mallory will stay together.

Remember the case of Danielle van Dam - the 7 year old who was taken from her bedroom and murdered several year ago in Calif? Her body was too decomposed for a cause of death to be determined, but her neighbor down the block is now on death row for her murder - because they found the little girl's DNA in his mobile home. They didn't have much more than that. For me, that is a compelling piece of the puzzle - in the absence of a smoking gun - and I was hoping for something along those lines to be presented in this case. Unfortunately, they just didnt have it.
