When the pieces of all the reports are put together, it is a grim story.<br /><br />I noticed that the media is being considerate in the matter. When the story is put together at trial, it will be devastating.ritanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798894468241676294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-32712671311476368552009-06-21T02:00:13.183-07:002009-06-21T02:00:13.183-07:00If this was previously posted, I must have missed ...If this was previously posted, I must have missed it and apologize.

Ritanita - also, they can't hide the comment made by Cindy about the smell of a dead body in the trunk. What gets me is that neither Cindy nor George ever met this supposed Zanny (who it is rumored to be a nickname for Xanax), and they hadn't seen Caylee for a month before saying anything. If they loved and cared about her as much as they say, and they know Casey, it doesn't make sense. If they love both of them, then they must do what's right for and by them and stop this charade. <br /><br />One thing that got to me over the past year was seeing the video of Caylee with her great-grandfather. Both of them look so connected to one another and so sad. It seems like Caylee felt very safe with him. He must be going through hell.Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418551036491989541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-91146551847634385882009-06-20T09:45:19.307-07:002009-06-20T09:45:19.307-07:00I would hope that media-types would write about th...I would hope that media-types would write about these reports with caution. Thankfully most journalists don't have much of an anthropology or medical/pathology background, or an understanding of really how horrible this whole crime is. Casey didn't just kill that child outright, Caylee knew something bad was happening to her. I guess it's a blessing she may have been too young to understand the concept and reality of death. <br /><br />Most lay people aren't even going to attempt to read those reports. <br /><br />I was sickened by them. If Cindy and George really understood the horror of what happened to their adorable grandbaby, while she was dying and after—left in the trunk of her mother's car until her mom packaged her up like toxic waste and dumped like common household trash, they'd do the right thing and stop protecting Casey. She's simply not worth protecting. <br /><br />Casey didn't even do a decent job of packaging that little girl's body. Animals will do what they do ... and in this case, they did what they do. Not going to be more descriptive than that. <br /><br />I guarantee if my daughter had done this, I'd say "I love you, but I do not like what you did. You need to be responsible for your actions, and taking responsibility means you are going to prison for life. You had options you chose not to take."CaliGirl9https://www.blogger.com/profile/06639398512708841968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-12264099978353766562009-06-20T00:01:58.092-07:002009-06-20T00:01:58.092-07:00Nora, I agree with you about the concept that rel...Nora, I agree with you about the concept that releasing the autopsy would tarnish Caylee's memory.<br /><br />Releasing the reports will more than likely do more to tarnish the defense case.<br /><br />I've been reading all day, but have yet to approach the reports. I know what they will say, I'm not ready to face the reality yet. <br /><br />I believe that the prosecution, without a cause and exact date of death, have an extremely strong circumstantial case with a great deal of forensic evidence.<br /><br />I've read that there were paper towels in the trunk of the car that had decompositon on them... even more proof little Caylee's body was in the trunk.ritanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798894468241676294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-45875765483283545312009-06-19T23:54:58.466-07:002009-06-19T23:54:58.466-07:00I don't really care about seeing the video now...I don't really care about seeing the video now. If the prosecution wants to use it and manages to get it into the trial, then fine. <br /><br />What impressed me most was the judge's language in the denial. He watched it and said it was so inflammitory it should be sealed for now. To me, it indicates he sees it as a sign of guilt.<br /><br />I predicted to my friends that this decision also would indicate a couple of things:<br /><br />1. The judge will only seal what he feels is extremely prejudicial. Notice that he easily ruled to release the autopsy reports today. Given that the Anthonys had no real standing, the judge wouldn't even consider holding off his decision for Baez. Clearly, even if the defense had filed a motion that they were too inflammitory, he would have released them.<br /><br />2. The judge isn't going to grant Baez's motion for change of venue. He stated in his order to seal the tape that only a change of venue could possibly repair the damage caused by its release.ritanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798894468241676294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-31790945403116369702009-06-19T20:33:04.199-07:002009-06-19T20:33:04.199-07:00More than one layer of duct tape around Caylee'...More than one layer of duct tape around Caylee's mouth and nose, her clothing and other items match stuff found in her home, is plenty of evidence of who did it and the cruel nature of it.Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418551036491989541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-53162694774095557752009-06-19T20:19:40.157-07:002009-06-19T20:19:40.157-07:00CaliGirl9 - yes, Dr. G. is a very cool person and ...CaliGirl9 - yes, Dr. G. is a very cool person and I trust her assessments.Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418551036491989541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-91358511650696583222009-06-19T20:18:08.835-07:002009-06-19T20:18:08.835-07:00I agree, that repeated viewing can lose impact. I ...I agree, that repeated viewing can lose impact. I hope that the video showing Casey's reaction WILL be shown in court - that was my concern. I don't need to see it now. I have heard enough about it, as it is. George Anthony was concerned that Caylee's memory would be tarnished by releasing the autopsy report. That isn't true. We've seen film and photos of Caylee for year on television and in the papers. She did nothing wrong to tarnish her image. We know what a sweet baby she was and what she looked like and that is what stays with us. (She was killed and it's no secret what happens to the body after death, but who focuses on that?) I think the Anthonys keep pressing for special privileges and they don't deserve it. Their denial is one thing, but not to order the public be in the same denial.Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418551036491989541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-72497119544219165232009-06-19T17:46:52.774-07:002009-06-19T17:46:52.774-07:00Nora said...

I have enormous respect for her and her big caring heart. You know she did right by Caylee ...I can't imagine how hard it was for her to "forget" what she was working on, you can see on her TV show how tough it is for her to work on children's remains.CaliGirl9https://www.blogger.com/profile/06639398512708841968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-46515467205273998082009-06-19T15:17:46.578-07:002009-06-19T15:17:46.578-07:00Excuse me, but does anybody else see this sealing ...Excuse me, but does anybody else see this sealing of the video as being flawed justice?
