Because he says the Anthonys knew Caylee was not alive when he first met with them about conducting the search. i.e Expending funds to search for a child that was already dead, where those funds could have be used to search for other missing children.

He has not said he will sue, I’m just guessing.

In addition, to win a civil case does not require “reasonable doubt?
Only a 51% chance.

Because she knew the child was dead (per her testimony), lied to the police about it, and let the search proceed anyway. They would sue to recover their costs incurred because of her lies.

Interestingly, she may not have 5th Amendment rights because of her immunity due to double jeopardy. Some interesting things could come out in a civil trial is she is forced to face a deposition.

What Tenn and NVA said. Also, consider this: As they noted, a plaintiff would only have to show that she knew Caylee was dead (and she’s admitted so under oath) to collect damages. There wouldn’t be any point to them proving murder (there’s no money in proving she did it) but if someone hand standing to sue her for wrongful death, the burden is way, way lower in a civil suit than in a criminal case. that’s why OJ got off but ended up getting hit with 56 million dollars in civil damages.

BTW...imagine if Caylee’s shows up out of the woodwork...”You caused my daughter’s death pay up.”
