Well, as awful and brutal as this murder is, I am somewhat relieved to know that it wasn't a saw or some of the other suggestions written here. I hope this is the lead that catches the person(s) that did this to Kenzi :(

I am looking forward to hear Cindys testimony. I imagine it will be a very difficult day for her as both the grandmother of Caylee, and the Mother of Casey. The hearing cant come soon enough, as is the norm with this case :)

Thanks to everyone for the notes on what happened today!

No, I think it will save the Florida tax payers some money :twocents:

It is nice to finally have some news. I have been so worried that her case would just fall into the past, as do so many others! :(

This is exactly what I thought when I read it!

http://translate.google.nl/translate?hl=nl&sl=nl&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ad.nl%2F This says her body has been located!

Me too :) I of course apologized for the initial OT where I asked if such a thread existed. I should have known it would spiral WAY out THERE though. It would be nice for everyone to know what to expect during these pre trial hearings and the upcoming trial. It isnt all Law and Order/CSI...

Thank you. I have already located the page(s) I was seeking, but appreciate your effort :)

From what I can tell thus far, yes in Florida it is a salary position, sorry for the thinking out loud :) ETA: I read "state attorneys" and can not find the link now, but upon deeper thought processing have come to the conclusion that they must have meant public defenders who are aslo "state...

Thank you. I am aware of all these services (which we also have), but this is not the information that I was referencing :)

I was referencing your summarization wherein you stated: "The first sentence says it all. Seeking justice for an innocent two year old murder victim. That's about as pure as it gets." I am very thankful for the information and links you posted of course. I was merely pointing out that...

It is my understanding that SAs also get paid per case....will link that when I come back across it as I was JUST reading about this very topic strangely! SAs also need to worry about reelection, whereas the defense does not :)

I do not have a preference to be honest and I have worked for both the prosecution and defense and also independantly for clients. Neither side is as cut and dry as most think either. To judge their ethics based on which side of court they are sitting is, in my opinion, quite foolish. Each have...

I found some of what I was looking for ....here is the link from the American Bar Association for anyone else who is interested :) I am still wondering though if each States office has a more specific Policy Manual.... http://www.abanet.org/crimjust/standards/pfunc_blk.html#1.2

There is much more to the concept of justice and that first sentence in its totality than that which you have summarized. That is why I have been searching for the SAs Policy Manual, which lays out much more directly those concepts you have listed. Thank you for that information though :)

Well, to be honest, that is why I asked. Here, we have directions(a manual persay) that sets out the role of the SA. It is to seek justice in the purest form, it is not to advocate for the victim(as only one example of the confusion/distress that I find here in regards to legal aspects/roles...
