Just look at her “party pics” and take note of her companions. Wouldn’t you think she could get her hands on whatever she wanted, whether it’s ready-made chloroform or Xanax or even more sinister things? She wasn’t hanging out with people from the social register.

[miss marmelstein]

No, I don’t get it. You said that maggots cause “smells.” Garbage cause smells, rotting meat cause smells but maggots are not particularly smelly. And none of these things smell like the Smell of Death. Get it?

[miss marmelstein]

Obviously, Crazy Casey was looking for methods to kill her daughter. That's pretty much been proven yesterday by the Prosecution. But I'm not sure about the chloroform (sp?). Isn't it just as easy to assume that she simply duct taped the child's nose and mouth and suffocated her to death?

[screaminsunshine]

Yes the maggots ate the meat that caused the smell.

[screaminsunshine]

The PI’s are part of the evidence as is the “Psychic” She stated she had no interest in them.

[SE Mom]

Agreed- I think she could get anything from her pals- I’m just curious why the state wasn’t able to find evidence of it..

BUT- this is a circumstantial case and that’s just one of the mysteries that may never be answered.

[MizSterious]

I do suspect that the police could have done more. For instance, we already know they could have checked out the meter reader’s report—that’s on the record. The scripted teevee detectives would have unearthed a lot more—but on the more reality-based shows like the First 48, you see that they miss some things, and sometimes just take off for a night’s rest and let things ride while the perps leave town and disappear. Doesn’t mean they’re bad detectives, just that there are limits to what a human can do.

I still wish they could have done more.

[MizSterious]

I’m not sure about the chloroform either, although I consider it a possibility. It could also be an accident—maybe she left the wee one hidden in the trunk while she partied, and the child died from over-heating. If so, it was a convenient accident, because I believe she intended to get rid of that inconvenient child.

[miss marmelstein]

Oh, I hope to God she didn’t leave her in the trunk - alive. Imagine the fear of the poor child. Some things we’ll never know.

[Tammy8]

I had a son-in-law that is one, as much as I believe in marriage forever I was so happy when my daughter finally saw right through him and got him out of her life. He was so messed up, lies, lies even when the truth was better. He also had some cult like way of controlling her when they were together. They can be very convincing at times- suck some people right into their web of craziness.

I pray for you that your son will wake up, we became convinced our daughter never would- but one day she came to her senses.

BUT- this is a circumstantial case and that’s just one of the mysteries that may never be answered.

......and there are plenty of mysteries associated with this case. One thing I've been wondering is why there was a decomposition smell picked up by the dogs in the back yard? If the theory is that Casey brought the dead child back to the Anthony's to try to bury her there (when she borrowed the shovel from the neighbor), why would she take her out of the car, lay her on the ground, etc. until the hole/burial spot was ready?

Anyone could have come home, walked into that back yard. By removing a body from the car, laying it on the ground while she was working/figuring out what to do, she would be leaving herself very exposed. She knew the neighbor was home. What if he decided to amble over to see how her "bamboo digging" was going...offer a helping hand. The more I thought about that aspect, it made no sense why she would bring the body out of a trunk.

Of course, there is no accounting for stupidity, but is it possible that this is where the child died, then the body was placed into the trunk afterword? There was no decomp smell associated near the pool, only in the area of the playhouse/sandbox.

In reference to my post 611,

“”I have never understood why she didn’t just make her defense that Caylee and she were going for a swim. The phone rang and she went to get it it, came out and Caylee was dead in the pool. She panicked and knew she would get blamed and made the rest up.””

I don’t think so. This is an excerpt from the 2nd interview with Casey. This is the investigator speaking. I think she latched onto this and decided to run with it:

1 There’s nothing you’re gonna tell any of the three of us that’s gonna surprise us

2 okay.

3 A Uh-huh. (Affirmative)

4 Q I’ve had to sit down with..with mother;s who rolled over their babies accidentally.

5 I’ve had to sit down with mothers whose kids have drowned in swimming pools.

6 I’ve had to sit down with mothers who had boyfriends who beat their kids to

7 death. Ah, you know who..who felt horrible about what happened. And then try,

8 and I had to go to them and help them try to explain to their families okay. And

9 then I’ve also had to deal with people who have done horrible, unspeakable

10 things to children. And then lied about it and lied about it and lied about it okay.

[Thank You Rush]

Thanks for that link. It’s not one I’ve run across yet. Aren’t we all going blind from looking these things up? Maybe not blind but surely a little bit nutty! Well, to each his own, I say. It’s like a good book.....

[Thank You Rush]

“I can’t believe it is taking Baez this long to depose 2 people.””

Aren’t they using this time to work on their closing arguments? I thought all depositions were over with yesterday. He can’t reopen his case so why the depo?

[Thank You Rush]

“”I can’t believe it is taking Baez this long to depose 2 people.””

Sorry - I am reading from the last posts and didn’t notice this was yesterday......

[Thank You Rush]

I believe it was on Nancy Grace last night where it was said that a mother had seen the same thing in her daughter and got the child away from her.

[dforest]

In the morning on Friday morning the judge gave the defense time to depose these two witnesses from Gentiva. The judge saw it as a stall tactic because what they were testifying to were computer records. But...the judge gave them the time because it was a death penalty case.

I was speaking to how at 9 in the morning it could be until after 1 and we had still not started the trial for Friday.

The judge gave them all day today to prepare for closing arguments based on the whole case.

I was glad because I was unable to watch early today;)

[screaminsunshine]

It is so obvious. George killed Caylee. Caylee was getting old enough to tell Casey about being molested by George. He drowned her while Casey was sleeping in order to shut her up. When Casey woke George was waiting for her with the dead Caylee. From there take the case by Baez and it all fits. The state Bungled the investigation from the start by only focusing on Casey. George was in the background manipulating the whole show. Not even Casey knew that George had done the Murder. She thought he was helping her avoid jail for child abuse. She is obviously a Lunatic and easily manipulated by George .

Here’s a fascinating timeline if you’ve not seen one yet.
