I totally agree! In fact, I think I remember hearing that the planned Puerto Rico trip in '08 was to be Casey's first airplane trip. If that's accurate (someone jump in, if not), then her first jetliner adventure would have been just this summer. As crafty as she's managed to be around her...

People.com: Casey Anthony is seeing a grief counselor. http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20528944,00.html (hope this link works; I'm posting via mobile and the link looks odd...)

Excellent article! Thanks for linking.

I bet that all the other similarly-charged/convicted players in Florida's probation game are *unimpressed*. That's the first thought I had after reading both pieces. Hmmmmm...

Ha! I'm sure Lyons wasn't referring to an actual charitable foundation. I took his comments to mean that Casey's team hopes to help her learn some basic life skills. She surely does need some assistance, that's for sure. Wherever she is...

No, Judge Perry could not have rejected any of the jury's 'Not Guilty' verdicts. There is confirmation of this on the "Lawyers" thread - I'm sure a quick search will produce it for you if you need a more official answer. HTH. :)

Agreed. In the eyeglasses/smooth pigtails photo, there's a visible gap between the two front teeth. Even if Casey had a less than perfect repair to a chipped or broken tooth while in jail, that doesn't explain the gap.

Here's Richard Hornsby's post on the topic, for those interested: http://blog.richardhornsby.com/2011/07/exculpatory-evidence-suppressed-by-law-enforcement-during-casey-anthony-murder-trial/

I think the concern is that a less-than-carefully crafted piece of legislation will be pushed through too quickly simply because it's called "Caylee's Law". My solution would be to give working titles to proposed laws like this one and then officially (perhaps even ceremoniously) name them...

I know this will sound slightly nuts, but I've wondered more than once about female inmates and what permissions they're granted in the way of personal grooming. I mean, in "real" life, there's the shaving, flossing, waxing, pumicing, moisturizing, tweezing, trimming, exfoliating, highlighting...

Gotcha. I just read the announcement/article mentioning "high-profile"; didn't watch the actual press conference. Another televised meeting of the Mutual Admiration Society - I'll pass. :) I feel like the whole campaign is a way for the public to send a message to *this* jury for returning...

What would/will be considered a "high-profile" case? One where jurors were brought in from another district? A case featured on Nancy Grace at least 3x per week for the 2-month period immediately prior to trial? A potential penalty of death? A defendant or victim known to 4 out of 5...

Respectfully, who says anyone ran to get the camera to grab this shot of Caylee standing at the sliding door? Where did that come from? The Anthonys took thousands (really, that would be my guess!) of photos of Caylee. It's completely reasonable to me to think that this one may have been a...

AZ, I suspect you have more patience in your little finger than I do in my entire being! My hat's off to you (and your fellow professionals) for your dedication to the 'Lawyers' thread here... :)

Agreed - they can go from zero to full meltdown in a nanosecond!:crazy: Also, FWIW, sometimes a "Look at Mommy, let's take a picture!" will snap them out of it. Maybe these shots are the ones where that didn't work. Who knows? Like you, I don't read much into it at all.

I tried to edit my earlier smart-assy post to add an on-topic thought but wasn't able to; sorry if my comment offended anyone. Re: professional jurors...I'm of the opinion it's a bad idea. I'd hate to think of someone looking at a criminal trial or sentencing hearing as "just another day at...

(bold mine) I'd like to see potential parents take a competency test. :innocent:

Oh, OK - I see now what you meant.

My opinion re: your question: "was the attorney for the state threatened?"... Nope. The Anthonys were a regular, middle-class family without wealth, political power, or community influence. What could they possibly use as leverage against an employee of the State of Florida? As for the...

Just a thought re: George... Was he a "career" cop? For some reason I remember hearing that he worked as an officer/dectective for 9 or 10 years. If that's the case (and I may very well be wrong), he probably would not have vested fully in his pension benefits. Most defined benefit plans...
