I think it's very difficult to make a judgement in that kind of lighting. Bright, narrow, single light source in a dark room, all that.
I have an almost two year-old boy, and he gets rings if he wakes up too early, if he naps late or if he's recently cried. Or it can be attributed to allergies or whatever caused that mark. I'm fair-skinned, and when I hit my face on something I get dark rings around one or both eyes.
Believe me, I'm not saying KC is or ever was mother of the year. And I will readily admit I don't want to believe any scenario that involves drugging because I don't want even a 1/2 percent chance that KC might luck out of first degree murder.
I just don't think we can tell under those lighting conditions. It's obviously very early in the morning, and maybe the poor little girl is just tired. It's probably hard to sleep when you're in strange house with someone you barely know with no child-oriented play. Because I'm beyond sure they weren't having family game night. But I digress.
I guess having seen Caylee as a happy, vibrant child in pictures around this time, I'm more likely to take this shot at the anomaly and not jump to the most nefarious conclusion.
Two weeks after this picture was taken this child was dead. We are scrutinizing the picture because of that fact. No other reason.
TL has stated Caylee never stayed over at his place. If they had gone swimming, you'd think he would of taken a pic of Caylee in the sun or enjoying the pool, etc. She should have been delighted and joyful - not cooped up in a dimly lit room. JMHO.
