Casey Anthony's murder trial

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Today on Fox news they were trying to make a big deal because the defense's expert said there was no blood evidence in the car. It doesn't surpised me that there wasn't any. If the baby was tripple bagged before being put in there and if she had no bleeding before death, fluids might not have leaked out into the car.

Seems like Fox news is on the defense side and HLN on the states side.

Last night I watched a special with Judge Pirro, very interesting. The defense attorney may face sanctions for holding something back from the prosection. The judge went off on him while the jury was out because of it.

Another thing brought up was Casey's behavior in the courtroom. Film clips show her crying and often looking away from the monitor while the jury is seated. When the jury is out she's laughing, smiling, and acting like this is no big deal.

As for the defense saying the baby accidently drowned, why wait 3 years to bring that up? Judge Pirro made a good point regarding the defense position; if it was an accident why is Casey allowing her father to frame her for a murder that never happened? All they had to do was report the accident and there'd be no need for the trial.

I've only been able to catch bits and pieces of the actual trial but this is getting stranger by the day. Casey and her mother don't get along at all. It was said that Cindy was constantly telling her what a bad mother she was. It was also brought out that Casey and Cindy had a bitter argument the day the baby disappeared.

Every time I think I have this figured out, something new gets tossed into the mix.

Catmom,

Welcome to the wonderful world of our totally disfunctional judicial system!! But you already KNOW that!!!

I'll call you tonight from my summer home in Farmington. Actually dog sitting for two great dogs, Shadow and her son Jake. She's a black cattle dog and he is a beautiful, chocolate pittie with the personality of a MUSH!

On this morning's news update they said Casey's story of Calley drowning in the family pool was "borrowed" from another inmate. Someone from the jail called the prosecutor and suggested they talk to this inmate The inmate in question reportedly had a son who drowned in their family pool and was found by his grandfather. The inmate claims she never spoke directly with Casey. Let's see where this one goes.

The water is really getting muddy now. Both sides are irritating. This trial has dragged on for too long, at least to keep my attention. If Casey takes the stand, then I'll watch but I doubt that she will. I still think she drugged Caylee, that it was an overdose and that she dumped her like trash. Why the duct tape? Maybe to keep Caylee from crying out, I don't know. Maybe we'll never know. It appears that everyone is lying. How can we believe anything that anyone says?

Any "seasoned" defense attorney knows you don't have your client testify in their own behalf. That's why I also doubt she'll take the stand. As far as an inmate's confession, HE'S in prison for a reason, so his credibility is down the toilet. I'm sure he'll agree PROVIDING there's a deal in it for him.

IF, and it's a BIG IF, she does take the stand, I'll be front and center watching it. Until then, I've got better things to do. Let the jury do their job.

I heard that her parents also think she's guilty but don't want her to get the death penalty. That's coming from their attorney.

I have been put to sleep lately with the forensic testimony - I don't really understand most of it - but of course it has to be presented. Some of the experts for the defense are very credible tho, and this is making it even more difficult for the jury. They will be out for a long time deliberating this case IMO. Maybe a hung jury too????

Will Casey take the stand??? I seriously doubt it. She would be ripped apart by the prosecution, and who's going to believe anything she says anyway? How could she possibly explain away her actions following the supposed drowning in the pool? I find it really sad to see the pics of Casey and Caylee together - Casey "appeared" to be such a loving mother toward her. Maybe she was at one time, and then just snapped. And the fight that Casey had with Cindy the night before she disappeared??? Did Casey take Caylee's life to spite her mother? Very possible I think, seeing how much that the grandparents loved and pampered Caylee. People do many strange things to hurt others - the "I'll show you" way of thinking and acting.

In the end, I don't think anyone will ever know the real truth about what happened, with the exception of Casey of course. I'd like to think that she would break under the pressure and spill it all, but she's too cold and heartless for that. She's out to save her own backside, and screw everyone else.

And I don't know about anyone else, but I wish someone would put duct tape over Nancy Grace's mouth, or at least put a sock in it, just to shut her up. Talk about a drama queen and stirring the pot!!! I've heard crap out of her - and only her - that no one else is reporting and is not substantiated.
