Casey Anthony Trial Thread #3

[Mosoh]

I don't think he hurt the State at all

She was in the car, on her side. He claimed there was tape on her head and he said the bones were clean when he did his work so what good are his thoughts?

 

[Nancy]

Oh sure I get back from grocery shopping and can sit down and they go to recess.

 

[Kurby]

HLN is saying that the brain being on the left side but the bones being found on upright proves it was moved.

can someone please mention to the jury that FLOOD WATER could have moved, shifted the bones and it doesn't mean a PERSON (kronk) moved it

 

[Aisling]

Why wasn't there DNA on the duct tape that was over Caylee's face?

See, this is why I couldn't be a juror. I keep going back and forth with my opinions. Spitz has put doubt in my mind. Seems the duct tape was put there AFTER Caylee was already dead. So that's not how not how she died. Was this brought out before as evidence?

Okay, there is an officer sitting in the chairs behind the podium, but I don't recall an officer being stationed there before. Any ideas why he might be there or did I just miss it in the past?

I never really noticed that before.

Did Baez really get slapped with contempt today?

Spitz said "natural causes" twice as a manner of death. Just sayin'.

Her eyes are not red, nose is not red. There is no real tears there.

Boy, if there's one thing I can't do is hide that I'm crying. My nose gets scarlet, my eyes swell up, my face gets puffy. Not pretty!

I noticed that too.

Looks like it's just Jean Casarez today on HLN. Oy. She's "ok", but I like Casey Jordan much better. She's very thorough in her analysis.

shocking - spitz can rule out suicide on a 2.5 year old

He just earned is $5K today ...

not yet - JP said he would decide at the end of court

Natural causes my foot.
So let me get this straight. this man is expecting the jury to believe that this baby put herself in 2 trash bags a laundry bag and put duct tape over her own face just so she could smother herself to death. Right. Then that would be suicide wouldn't it. I don't like this guy.

What did I miss???

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

Isn't that important? I respect Dr. G, but she comes across as a know-it-all, not just an experienced pathologist.

I thought she just came off as confident.

AND the animals that chewed on her bones and distributed them around the area.

I don't think there was DNA on much of anything, was there? I'm guessing 6 months of water/exposure to the elements. Per Spitz's theory, the duct tape would have had to been put there after the body was completely decomposed to bone. I just don't buy it.

Threatened with it.

Dr. Spitz is pretty impressive even though he doesn't have his own glitzy cable tv show ...

NNNOOOO!!!! He was just listing "manners of death"...natural causes, suicide, homicide, ? and natural causes. He wasn't saying CAYLEE died of natural causes. Sorry for the confusion.

Catching up now. I see the defense is just doing it's job today, as usual. And that Judge Perry is obviously not treating them fairly. Doesn't he read here?

That darn duct tape is still the sticky issue (see what I did there? ) If the prosecution wants us to believe that is what killed Caylee, then it has to have been applied before she died obviously. But sooooo hard to prove that.

This would be a tighter case if the prosecution had not alleged that, and if the defense had just said drowning (without all the other stuff).

He didn't say she died of natural causes, just that natural causes is one of the MANNER of death. There are 4.

I agree. They say he testified before congress in the JFK and MLK autopsies. I think he did show that Caylee didn't die by being smothered with the euct tape over her face. I can't see Casey getting First Degree pre-meditated murder now with Spitz's info. It puts that doubt back out there for the jury.

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

Here we go...Ashton vs Spitz.

Nice!

My bad. Sorry
