I have to wonder what's going through Casey's mind today, but somehow I doubt it has much to do with Caylee.

It's just a darn shame any of these young people have to spend money (and it's not cheap) to have a lawyer represent them. Casey's touch spread far and wide ---- she hurt everyone who knows her it seems --- but you're right, not knowing who Casey will blame makes it imperitive to have an attorney.

I also object to the presumptuous term "Nanny". To my way of thinking a nanny is someone you hire to live in your home and to care for your children when you are outside your home. You provide room and board and a salary. Someone you take your child to, someone who is providing child care in...

I don't doubt for one moment that Cindy is a desperately unhappy person, and that is understandable under these circumstances. I'm sure she hoped things would work out one day, but Cindy displays an ability to create her own 'truth' ----. She has an ability to deny what is factual and true...

Concerning Cindy (only) now, I don't see guilt, or grief, or heartbreak. What I see is fury. She is consumed by anger and it fairly radiates from her. She directs her anger at anyone, and anywhere else, rather than at Casey.

Cindy and George could have done so much better for themselves and for Casey if they'd suffered through this Gawdawful situation with quiet dignity rather than displaying their belligerent, arrogant and defiant sides. It's too late for them now because we all know who and what they are, but...

You are one smart Mom and more parents should be doing that! Too bad Cindy (who doesn't hesitate to do anything else she wants to do) didn't do the same.

I really don't know either, but where I live the Sheriff's Department does some patrolling in out-lying areas, manages the jail and answers animal complaints. They defer to the police department in all matters, but are like a second tier back up, especially in the more rural areas.

Your word: "training". That was another subject that was explored almost a year ago. Apparently George didn't get any formal training at all in order to get a job with that little Sheriff's Department many years ago. I just think too much has been made of the fact that he was in LE many years...

On thing I would really like to clear up where George is concerned is just how much of a LE background he really has. I remember early on in this case his background in LE was more fully explored, and it was determined that he was a deputy in the Sheriff's Department for a little while, but was...

Yes, this brings a bit of sophistication to the defense team, but so what? Her expertise will be used only in avoiding the death penalty, not in determining Casey's eventual guilt or innocence.

It truly is mind-boggling, especially since the chances of you or me getting that kind of help in a legal defense are slim to nothing. What makes Casey different? Frankly, none of it matters to me because what I want for Casey is LWOP --- I never did care about having her sentenced to death...

I don't know anything more about Professor Lyon than what has been posted here, but she's GOT to be easier to take than LKB. I wonder how likely it is that Professor Lyon is coming on board the defense team pro bono, for free?

I'd bet he met and got to know some pretty interesting characters, the kind of people who know how to make a body disappear.

I understand the authorities have already contacted Stacy Peterson's family, so.................
