First let me say I am really upset that I may be about to upset the many friends I have made here at WS - but I'm not certain we all read the same depo. :tears:
But here goes:
First remember this depo was taken in November 2009, not 2008 as some posters have suggested. And that Mallory and Lee do not live together now, nor have they ever lived together. At the time of this crime, Lee had a male room mate (whose name I did not write down but I believe is on the defense witness list)
Mallory says she and ICA were not friends - have never gone "out", she has never been in ICA's car, and she saw her only occasionally - at family get togethers. ICA never confided in her.
Mallory says she and CA were closer although CA did not tell her ICA was stealing from her, Lee did not tell Mallory ICA stole from him, but CA did tell her ICA had taken her mother's (SP) banking/checking information.
Was at the house the night of the day ICA was arrested - the car was not there. Family in a sheer panic as was Mallory. They knew ICA was safe but where was Caylee.
Mallory believed ICA worked full time at Universal as an event planner. Thought CA and GA primary caregivers but there was an occasional nanny - never heard her name.
Saw ICA and the family twice between the arrests, the first night she came home and once more before she was again arrested.
Stated Lee believes no one else was involved in Caylee's disappearance
Stated George has never told her he thought anyone else was involved.
Stated CA has never told her she thought anyone else was involved.
Stated as of November 2009, Lee, CA and GA believe Caylee is dead.
Bits of this and that throughout the depo, but from my point of view, this is a not very bright girl who believed, as the family did, that Caylee was kidnapped, but there is no sense she is close to this family and didn't and still doesn't see them more than once or twice a month at most. She said sometimes she didn't see them for two months at a time. Mallory could hardly be considered a confidante. She also gave me the impression she was being careful to separate what she read/heard in the media, and what the Anthony's told her during this initial first period.
All are my "readings/comprehension" of Mallory's depo and as I have long suspected - not important at all. And I want to head you all off at the pass by telling you I despise Koolaid and would never consider drinking it.
This depo is much to do about nothing IMO
