DIRECT EXAMINATION OF CA BY JB - continued
She was shown Photo DU. She believes it was taken in the summer of 2007.
Noting previous Overruled Objection, the photo was marked as Exhibit 50 and it was published to the Jury.
The photo showed Caylee climbing the ladder with Cindy holding her - actually CA said her hands were there, but with a light touch. As the year went on she was able to climb in the pool by herself and she agreed she was just there as a safety net.
She was shown Photo DV and identified it as Caylee climbing the ladder - another image She was a little further up the ladder.
State: OBJECTION BY LDB - OVERRULED - Photo marked as Exhibit 51 and was published to the Jury.

State: OBJECTION BY LDB - OVERRULED - Photo marked as Exhibit 52 and was published to the Jury.

State: OBJECTION BY LDB - OVERRULED - Photo marked as Exhibit 53 and was published to the Jury.
She was shown another photo and identified it as showing Caylee on the first step into the pool with CA behind her.
Did she often get anxious and want to get in?
OBJECTION BY LDB- relevance and improper opinion - OVERRULED
For the most part she would wait for them, but the following year she was more anxious and was more familiar with the pool. They always had a life jacket on her.
In summer of 2008 she believes she put the pool together in March or April and she would swim maybe 3 to 4 times a week - always with the life vest on.
When she was on vacation during June of 2008 - one week - Caylee went swimming every day.
She was shown another photo (DY) and identified it as her in the pool holding on to Caylee.
OBJECTION BY LDB- same - OVERRULED - photo marked as Exhibit 54 and published to the Jury.
This photo showed her trying to get into the pool with Caylee anxious to swim off and her trying to hold her. She agreed they took numerous precautions around the pool. The made sure that once Caylee started walking - they used to have a pool deck box next to the pool just a little further than the ladder - and once she was a toddler, they moved it to up against the house so that she couldn't climb on it to get into the ladder and they took extra precaution every day to keep the ladder off the pool unless they were swimming. They also made sure they taught Caylee she had to be with one of them to go into the pool. They took precautions of her going up and down the ladder backward and forward. They told her they had to be with her and why. They kept the life vest inside the patio.
The vest in the photo was the second one they bought for her. After this they bought a removable life vest that would go over her suit. These photos were taken after the video just shown.
She was then shown another photo (EB) and identified it as a picture of Caylee at the sliding glass door from the living room going into their screened patio. She agreed Caylee appeared to be much bigger in this photo.
OBJECTION BY LDB - OVERRULED - photo was marked as Exhibit 55 and published to the Jury
Prior to the last time she saw Caylee, she was possibly an inch taller than this picture.
*ICA wiping tears and blowing her nose while watching the monitor*
Caylee never left the house barefoot to go anywhere - 99.9% sure - she liked to wear shoes. CA always put shoes on her. Was it ICA's custom?
OBJECTION BY LDB - SUSTAINED
The sliding glass door - they did not have bars on the door.
Caylee could easily open doors.
On 6/16/08 she came home and noticed that the ladder was up on the pool. It was highly unusual and she called GA to see if he left the pool ladder up and she also noticed that the gate was open. She may have commented to this to Debbie Bennett or Charles at work. She may have told Debbie Policano. Why did you tell your co-workers.
OBJECTION BY LDB - SUSTAINED
During this time period were you having marital problems?
OBJECTION - relevance - SUSTAINED
