Nice work - as usual - JWG. :thumb:
FWIW, there's extensive discussion on the "All about Chloroform" threads for diving in further there. Kudos to DogMom to giving some excellent details on GC's, etc. Seeing these emails helps me get an appreciation of just how 'remote' Arped was from the Pontiac when we got these comments about the level of chloroform and even the speculation that it might be via pharm grade. Arped was making these judgements based solely on the relative amount of chloroform in the air samples that had been provided. On one of the chloroform threads (#2 IIRC) we observed the concentration levels associated w/ specific side-effects and noted that neither George, nor the K9 were rendered unconscious when they intentionally inhaled the trunk air...George sticking his nose right down on the stain....which IIRC meant the concentration had to be <1,000 parts per million. And as DogMom and/or others pointed out here...via GC you only observe the compounds...not the form in which they are present...IOW...GC doesn't tell you if it was in an azeotrope (e.g. from homebrew chloroform)...rather would only tell you what two compounds of an azeotrope might have been present. I will admit that I am completely baffled by Arped not keying on the potential for the chloroform to be the product of decomposition itself, as we've read...and I do mean baffled :doh: IMHO...:twocents: I'm still parked on the chloroform being the product of decomp itself.
You hafta appreciate Arped's WS-qualities, eh? At the same time, IMHO, his comments also give you some insight on not reading too much into things. For example, identifying one specific body of water...and going so far as to quantify 700' out...at that point he's become one of us
And at least now we have some more info on why LP was babbling on incessantly 'bout turpenes. Geez. Doesn't look like the blue crate was submitted for further testing...so...am inclined as others to go w/ the pants and/or boots being the source of turpenes finding their way into the trunk. This would be useful for putting together a more solid case for 6/19 vs. 6/20 disposal. It would mean that Casey was in gotta-look-like-i'm-goin'/comin-to/from-work attire when she executed the disposal. I won't try to remember all the details, but, if I was looking them up I'd check:
'Nuff ramblin' for one post. Carry on!

It would mean that Casey was in gotta-look-like-i'm-goin'/comin-to/from-work attire when she executed the disposal. I won't try to remember all the details, but, if I was looking them up I'd check:
- Chris description of Casey's attire if he gave one (don't recall for certain), but, don't think she had time to change...or likely a planned change of clothes with her 6/19PM
- Casey left Tony @ his apt. 6/19PM, and could've given a gotta-do-a-quick-thing-for-work alibi for which she'd need to change into slacks
- Weren't these boots in pics >6/20 @ Fusian...so...maybe just focus on the slacks
- Friday afternoon 6/20 before Fusian...when Casey had been tellin' Tony she was going in early and he knew she'd be goin to Fusian that night....seems most likely to be slack-wearin' time = disposal 6/20 ~1:50PM
- Also seems that a gonna-party-Friday attitude would be more fitting w/ Casey's m.o. to act only when she had to vs. Thursday....although I realize some make the argument that Casey gave Tony a lift 6/19PM in Apartment-a-go-go with Caylee's body in the trunk...as a too-close-call compelling Casey to deal w/ it immediately afterwards.
