Casey Anthony Trial

[footfootfoot]

Sometimes, it's the way it is wrapped, or the fact it is wrapped at all. Haphazrd wrapping in a blanket versus wrapping in a comforting way, one is "who gives a shit?" and the other is pretending to yourself that you are not a bad mom.

And then there is the ever practical trash bag. I think you can read a little into how people consider their victims by the way they treat the remains.

Just what I've read.

Now Cindy is saying she did the searches for chloroform and some trauma/injuries searches on the home computer - even though her time card from work says she was at work during those times.

She says she "came home early," - ch'yeah.

[wolf]

I'm pretty sure Cindy perjured herself in a misguided attempt to save her daughter's life. Otherwise something would have been said about this earlier in the evolution of the case.

And such a bizarrely weak story, too ... "I searched for chlorophyll because I wondered why my little Yorkie might be sleepy."

Yeah. It's a puppy. That's what they do in between bursts of frantic energy.

Chlorophyll totally relates to searches on how to make chloroform and kill people with household objects and break necks. In between visits to facebook and myspace, which mom didn't use at all.

Fool.

I don't think Casey will get the death penalty.

I mean, she is a cute, petite, big-breasted chicka.

[footfootfoot]

cf Amanda Knox. It's like she got hit with Casey's shit hammer, AK is so obviously not guilty.

[Trilby]

I don't think AK is guilty, either.

but Casey sooooooo is.

The last cutie-pie to be put to death was Karla Faye Tucker and she was in Texas, ffs, AND "W" was gov. so, she was purty much out of luck there.

[Sundae]

Really?
I have no problem with Foxy Knoxy's conviction.
Things about her testomony were seriously screwy.

[Trilby]

I have to admit, I just have a "gut" feeling that Knoxy is not guilty.

That feeling, and the obvious bumbling of the Italian police/detectives.

[footfootfoot]

You can see it on her face. She's innocent.

[wolf]

No real surprise ... Casey isn't testifying.

Jose Baez, though, has to be the dumbest attorney on the face of the Earth ... he spent most of this morning have Lee, Cindy, and George testify that it was pretty common practice in the family to wrap their pets in plastic with a favorite blanket or toy, tape up the bag and bury them.

Rather than making a broad suggestion that one of the other family members did this with Caylee, he pretty much walked into his own trap, showing that from the time she was a toddler, this is how Casey knows that a beloved pet is to be interred.

And kudos to Jeff Ashton, the prosecutor ... "Mrs. Anthony, your buried your pets, correct? You never threw any of them into a swamp, did you?"

And the Defense just rested.

[wolf]

Some dumbass in the gallery shot a bird at the Prosecutor.

The judge is wacking his peepee.

[wolf]

6 days in jail, $400 fine, about $220 in court costs, 6 months worth of installments.

[glatt]

Heh. I haven't been following this trial closely, but I just Googled this trial and "contempt of court" to see details on this incident, and see that it's at least the 4th instance of contempt of court in this one trial. What a 3 ring circus.

[wolf]

Two of the contempt citations occurred during jury selection, I think ...

I am so freakin' wrapped up in this thing that I signed up for Twitter so I could get the Verdict notification.

Seriously.

[TheMercenary]

So wolf, do you think she is going to get off?

Any bets on how long this jury is going to deliberate? I am betting at least 2 or 3 weeks because nothing seems cut and dry.
