<p>Well, that’s at least as well-supported as anything the defense came up with.</p>
<p>Parent56- I think you might be brilliant. That sounds spot-on. I can picture that woman even saying it.</p>
<p>Oh my goodness, Mr. Baez is so unimpressive. It’s almost cringe-worthy.</p>
<p>yep me too involved mom… at a nightclub a friend asks about Caylee…“oh no problem Zanny the Nanny has that taken care of.”</p>
<p>she may be evil but i cant see her breaking her baby’s neck… but chloroform a parent who then cant struggle and/or bring in a boyfriend to help ???</p>
<p>Baez is an idiot</p>
<p>Does Baez think that repeating phrases over and over makes it true. He is so confusing and he sounds so desperate.</p>
<p>Now it’s the boyfriend’s fault!</p>
<p>And he just called his client a liar! This is awesome!</p>
<p>and the maggots are the most disturbing thing about this case</p>
<p>i think he’s hoping to confuse them enough to hang the jury or at least get rid of the pre-meditation… i feel a bit sorry for him…he can only go with what casey and her family say and sure seems like they cant tell the truth about much</p>
<p>wow. He’s doing awesome…j/k</p>
<p>If he says “here’s the thing” one more time, I think I’ll throw something at the tv.</p>
<p>That Baez wants anyone to believe that neither George Anthony or Casey wouldn’t call 911 if Kaylee had fallen into the pool and drowned - -even if it was beyond hope she could be revived - is mind-boggling.</p>
<p>If the baby drowned, and Cindy/George knew that, why didn’t they say so, rather than let their daughter sit in jail for 3 years? Really, a nurse and a former police officer aren’t going to call 911? So…if that’s true, than how did Caylee get into the trash bag? This makes no sense at all.</p>
<p>teeny teeny part of me wonders…they wouldnt let anyone know casey was pregnant… why not? were they also worried what people would think if they hadnt put on safety locks etc and child drowned…but cant take it much further than that…how would they figure they could cover up the death later?? but its pushing it</p>
<p>OK… I’ve probably watched about 2% of this coverage live, but somehow I managed to catch the spectator being charged with contempt of court, and now the sidebar during a closing argument. Somehow I’m thinking I missed a lot by not watching all of itl!</p>
<p>teri, I also haven’t watched any of the trial (just read news articles) but turned it on in the middle of the defense’s closing argument and caught the recess when Jose Baez accused the prosecutor of laughing and the prosecutor objected and the judge sustained and then everything stopped and the jury was sent out.</p>
<p>The little bit I caught of the Baez’ closing argument seemed ridiculous. So what if it is possible that the toddler can open a door and climb a pool ladder? It doesn’t prove she drowned. She likely can run out in a road too and get run over. Anything is possible. What proof was presented of this so called accidental drowning? And if it was an accident that one or both parents knew about, why would they allow their daughter to sit in jail accused of murder and be tried in a death penalty case for murder rather than admit the accident (a much lesser charge like wrongful disposal of a body, etc.). And what motivation would a former police detective have for hiding an accidental drowning anyway and making it look like his daughter committed murder? Makes NO sense. </p>
<p>And the little part I saw about how the duct tape belonged to George Anthony…so what? Casey lived with her parents! My daughters have borrowed their dad’s duct tape all the time!! Casey even stole from her parents, and so using dad’s duct tape is no big deal.</p>
<p>I find this annoying…</p>
<p>Linda Kenney-Baden (former Casey atty) and others have said…if Casey is not convicted of 1st degree and given the DP, then it’s a victory for the defense…and a loss for the prosecution.</p>
<p>This bothers me for several reasons…</p>
<p>1) the defense has claimed that it was an accident, so how would LWOP or 2nd degree murder conviction be a “victory”? To me, that suggests that they KNOW she’s guilty and just are fighting the DP. That’s fine, but don’t pretend that it’s an accident then.</p>
<p>2) The prosecution doesn’t really give a rats patootie if she gets LWOP. That’s probably what they always wanted ANYWAY…because she’s a pretty girl and we don’t give pretty girls the DP. They only put DP on the table to get a DP-qualified jury…because those juries are more likely to convict. </p>
<p>Also…Linda keeps claiming that we have to know how Caylee died …and without knowing that the jury can’t convict…Hogwash…we don’t’ know how Laci Peterson died…we don’t know when or where or how.</p>
<p>The OJ prosecution knows that it should have sought the DP with OP because they would have gotten a different jury. A DP-jury may not have given OJ the DP, but he would have probably been convicted…and OJ/defense would have waived its right to a “speedy trial”…which was another part of the problem with that case.</p>
<p>Soozie, I thought the exact same thing re the duct tape.</p>
