Good Morning to all, and Happy Independence Day.
There are also sure to be courtroom fireworks as the State gives it rebuttal and the case is expected to be sent to the jury.
Court is starting early today at 8:30 a.m.
The countdown for justice for Caylee begins.
Theyre trying to book jurors for shows.
George, Cindy and Lee would be a great fit for the Jerry Springer Show or Whorealdo.
You have to stop saying someone is guilty, (Linda) Baden said on The Today show.
Lead defense attorney Jose Baez said its her [Anthony] against the world.
******
Jose Baez got down on one knee to Casey after the closing arguments and Casey stroked his face according to HLNews (who are making excuses for his unprofessionalism).
Me too! I just started paying attention in the last couple of weeks. All of this happened just around the corner from our church and I got sick of hearing about it pretty fast. Now, I am caught up in it again and I know it will be *the* topic at the cookout this afternoon....
I'm wondering if the fireworks at Lake Eola will be affected by coverage of the trial.
And, I was at the Orange Tree Antique Mall this morning and they said they will be glad when the trial is over. People have been staying home watching it instead of shopping!
OMG! Unbelievably obscene!!!
(Was his fly open?)
According to the broad on HLN, Casey and Baez had a tender moment after the rebuttal and before the Perry’s instructions. HURL!
Thanks. I was curious because even a low end attorney’s fees would be astronomical considering the number of billable hours for a case of this magnitude, and it’s obvious the Anthony’s don’t have this kind of money.
Has Jose been receiving payment in kind from Casey all along?
I always had a lot of respect for Dr. Baden but have honestly seen him in a new light since I first began listening to his opinions on the case.
I always took his word as almost gospel- no more.
Dr. Baden is senile. Too bad...he was sharp when he was young.
The prosecutor’s statement about an amazing mother was pretty breathtaking. She did note that the only testimony about Casey’s being an ‘amazing mother’ was from a childless contemporary of Casey’s.
Then she went on to repeat a story told by one of the (expert?) witnesses about a mother who’d lost her child. The first time there was a severe thunderstorm after her child died and was buried, that mother wanted to go to her child’s grave because the child had never before been alone during a storm. THAT, she said, is an ‘amazing mother,’ who wanted to protect her child, even in death.
The closing today was so intense, and extremely well and professionally done, I am still somewhat breathless.
You don’t have to have kids to know that the death of a child is unforgiveable. It is still one of the major taboos in our society.
I have always wondered about those two.
Dr. Baden was a defense witness in Phil Spectors murder trial. He was reportedly paid $250,000. Badens wife was legal co-counsel for Spector at the time.
And where is Spector now?
The Badens’s are losers.
Prosecutors Ask For Hearing On How Baez Is Getting Paid
March 9, 2009
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Prosecutors asked for a special court hearing Monday afternoon, to find out how Casey Anthony’s defense team was getting paid.
The state is worried that Casey’s lawyer Jose Baez could make decisions in the case based on a book or movie deal instead of her best interests. Prosecutors believe the move could be grounds for appeal if Casey is convicted.
Many have been asking how Casey is paying for all of her attorneys and experts.. And even if there is a hearing on this issue, it might be behind closed doors. So even if prosecutors and the judge find out, the public may not.
Home videos of Caylee Anthony fetched almost $200,000 for the young mother last summer. Based partly on that argument, prosecutors want the judge to find out what kinds of financial agreements are behind the hiring of nationally known defense experts like New York attorney Linda Kenney Baden and Connecticut pathologist Henry Lee.
In a motion filed this afternoon, prosecutors said eight different lawyers and numerous experts have been hired by Casey Anthony and that logical conclusions must be drawn.
For example, Casey did not go from pauper to princess before her arrest. She’s in no position to be managing her only assets, photos and videos of Caylee, so her defense attorney Jose Baez must be doing it.

You’re right....and a local attorney has been on all during the trial giving commentary....and noticed & remarked about her smooth voice too.
That is a PERFECT explanation of how she acted with the police heading to disney to her "office". She just had to get past that moment.
I feel the same way. Some of the things he's said during these last week or so are just plain wrong!
He can't be believed anymore.
Yes! THE WORST.
My dad is buried under a beautiful tree in a lovely cemetery but I find that wonderfully comforting.
Jose Baez speeding ticket paid, now to court for the foreclosure, & other cases
Remember on 17 February 2011, Baez did his normal speeding ticket! Looks like Baez ran into some money, plead GUILTY and paid the fine of $27.00! The court cost was $91.35 and a service charge of $12.65, for a total of $131.00! He paid his ticket on 2 March 2011, guess he was worried there would be a suspended license in the near future had he not taken care of it immediately!
More court hearings on 23 March 2011. This one is for the foreclosure on the house he hasnt made payments on. Looks like a Motion to Dismiss has been submitted.
