Casey Anthony's psychological evaluations unsealed
Orlando Sentinel ^ | January 11, 2012 | Anthony Colarossi and Amy Pavuk

Explosive accounts of Casey Anthony's life and her version of what happened to her daughter Caylee Marie almost four years ago were revealed today when a judge unsealed two never-before-seen depositions from doctors who conducted psychological evaluations on the mother before her murder trial.

The depositions of Dr. Jeffrey Danziger and Dr. William Weitz vividly describe what Anthony told her doctors about alleged sexual abuse by her father and the alleged drowning death of her 2-year-old daughter in the summer of 2008.

The experts' statements are significant because they represent the most recent version of Anthony's story about what happened to her daughter.

The Orlando Sentinel, which requested that the depositions be unsealed, is reviewing the documents now and will regularly update this story.

Weitz said Anthony felt "very comfortable" leaving Caylee with her mother, but felt her father George "was a threat to her daughter, based on what had happened to her and that would make her uncomfortable."

Weitz also described "an issue of the pool and swimming." Anthony was always very cautious before she went to sleep to make sure the pool area was secured, he said.

And "she always slept with Caylee and she was highly protective and sensitive to her." But on "the particular date in question…she was sleeping very hard, she awoke, the father was in the room and Caylee was missing."

Weitz said he thought this was June 15 or 16, 2008.

"They went to search for her and look around to no avail, and then father brought Caylee to her and she was wet – in his arms. She was wet, and she appeared to be deceased. He then took her, you know, basically, and he took Caylee out of the room from her, and she said she basically lost it at

‘Anthony was, in Danziger’s opinion, “surprisingly cheerful.”’

I can tell you what was going on in Casey Anthony’s brain.

“Man, this girl is really putting a serious crimp in my action. Guys find out I have a daughter, and they don’t call anymore. And babysitters? They cost money and then how can I afford that cute little black dress? If only this girl was gone. Yeah.....gone.....”

The prosecuting attoryney was right when he said in court “Somebody in that house killed her”. Unfortunately, that meant the jury was only 33 1/3 % convinced it was Casey.

If all three would have been charged there would have been 3 guilty verdicts. And rightfully so.

How can they possibly evaluate her by statements she made? Everything that comes out of this selfish, souless, ugly bag of water's mouth is a lie. There are those couples who cannot bear children, yet this twit does and kills the most precious gift. And yes, the WHOLE Anthony family is to blame for being enablers of this tragedy.....so sad. Caylee, indeed is in a better place.

“How can they possibly evaluate her by statements she made?”

The evaluation was to insure she was sane (enough) to stand trial. The evaluation does NOT go to corroborate her narrative. In fact, as part of the psych eval she is flagged several times in the report as willing to lie and comfortable with it, and raising issues which are not corroborated by law enforcement.

This evaluation was simply a routine step to certify the defendant’s competence to stand trial. Unfortunately, there is no such procedure for jurors.

Competency testing for jurors? I like it! Many cannot comprehend simple concepts, much less DNA and other highly scientific data. Lord help us!

Just joking! Actually voir dire is supposed to achieve that. Competency tests are expensive, time consuming and on a looooong waiting list. Also I would not trust the system with such an intrusive and frankly subjective assessment of citizens.

But yeah . . . Some people . . .
