2011.06.27 TRIAL Day Twenty-nine (Afternoon Session)

[pinkfly]

I thought the psychic was identified and she was the one that CA sent the teddy bear to

 

[Etiana]

This is all brand new to me...I don't know who either this guy or DC is, so I am really stretching my ears toward my laptop, for the first time in about 5 hours...

Same with me!!!

 

[NoeticSoul]

Echo's of Cindy's "She's not in the woods!" ...

 

[Stella5]

They were really close to her............really close.

Yes they were! Thank GOD they didn't go further or they would have and we would have never had anyone find her. The A's probably would have buried her in the backyard and ICA would be home eating Chili. JMOO

And er - umm - James Hoover speaks of an alleged "relationship" between Dominic Casey and Cindy Anthony in one of the testimonies I read that he did with the LE.

You newbies will notice there is a sense of chortling and general hilarity about this witness and the one coming up despite the seriousness of the subject. You had to have read or watched the various testimonies to get what we are chuckling about. The psychics Dominic was emailing back and forth were completely off the wall and D. Casey's PI techniques were called into question by many of us.

Bbbwwaaahaaahaaa.

 

[Controversialist]

I'm getting nervous.

I imagine, in my simple mind, that there would be definitive cell phone info on Dominick's little chit chat while prowling around the discovery site, to pinpoint who was on the other line. Anyone besides his daughter and a psychic hot line?

:coffeews:

 

[redkatrampant]

Thank you all so much. I have not been able to follow along today and now I have a killer migraine.

 

[TotallyObsessed]

If I am not mistaken, that statement IS contained in someone's LE interview or deposition....just cannot recall if Hoover's or Casey's....

And you can bet your bippy that the SAOs has their i's dotted and their t's crossed. I belived they launched an entire separate investigation into this matter wayyy back when.

 

[eaglemom]

I'm trying to follow this.

This guy Hoover walked up to George on his lawn and offered to be a body guard. George asked him to provide security at a "meet and greet" and this guy was about to, but detoured into the woods to video tape some other guys searching for Caylee?

GA and CA had already hired someone else (Dominic Casey) he checked out Hoover and said he was OK. Occasionally he used Hoover to 'help' him with some things otherwise GA and CA had Hoover around outside the house because of the protesters. On this day supposedly DC got a call from a psychic and BEFORE the meet and greet he asked Hoover to meet him at the ofc to go and look for Caylee. He did and if I remember right Hoover made this tape without Casey knowing about it at first - Casey turned around and Hoover was just taping...

That is my recollection at any rate - you can see with the similarity in name why we have ICA etc.

There is also some other stuff allegedly about CA and Dominic Casey getting close but that was never confirmed

MOO

 

[MTnest]

How can either Hoover or Casey testify to the psychic's tips regarding the location of the body? Wouldn't this be hearsay?

 

[dkatiemom]

I may have missed some important moments of the trial, so forgive me if I am wrong, but is this one of the first times they have actually opened the paper bags, removed evidence and passed it among the jury?

I'm not saying everything should necessarily be passed among the jury, but I am so glad they finally started doing this because it is real, tangible evidence they can hold in their hands, items from the actual date and circumstances, and this, IMO, not only directly involves the jury but gives them much more of a sense of the evidence than simply an attorney handing a witness a paper bag and discussing the item without opening it, showing it, etc.

Why can't they do this with some of the other evidence? I was thinking the state would pull out the blanket, show some of these other things that were in those paper bags at earlier points in the trial, making it a much more real and visceral experience for the jury than just discussing them with photos.

 

[pinkfly]

It was speculated that Baez....and then also Cindy Anthony directed Hoover and Casey out to Suburban on November 15th....

Interestingly enough, this was also the exact time frame when Mark Nejame submitted his vaguely worded letter of resignation to the Anthonys and it was speculated that he caught wind of what they were doing and got the heck out of dodge!!

If someone points a finger at JB this case will bust wide open (and then probably end in a mistrial)

 

[Kentjbkent]

No it was a tip from Ginette the psychic - she called him early in the morning that day. I believe CA had sent her a teddy bear. We have pages of emails between dominic, ginette and another psychic that are pretty comical in a woo-woo way to read.

But remember even that was suspect....and remember Ginette went on NG and stated she would provide cell records, but then backtracked the next day with a BS excuse about how she could not get records because phone was in her father's name....then she virtually disappeared after it appeared she had been discredited...

(For those confused....there are some good old threads about this...will try to find and bump for review this evening....)

 

[Mamabear1963]

Hit thanks if you think this move is going to blow up in the DT's face in epic ways.

Really, how can it not blow up...IMO, if the DT had kept their story simple...and just tried to head one direction and not 1 million...they would have had a chance...but the more detailed JB gets in his CIC...the easier it is for JA and LDB to just knock them down...(angry bird picture here)

 

[MissJames]

That's what I am understanding too, but it sure does sound strange.:waitasec:

The meet and greet was in November .James Hoover was working with the A's from July .After Dominic Casey ,the DT's PI ,left the DT he and James Hoover were working together for the A's,but it's hinky and the DT still appears to be involved with them,but not officially.

ETA when ICA was out on bail there were crowds of protesters at their house.That's why JH helped the A's at that time.

 

[logicalgirl]

That's what I am understanding too, but it sure does sound strange.:waitasec:

Not strange - just another person wanting their 15 minutes of fame, that's all. There were a lot of them back then.!

 

[TotallyObsessed]

but..I thought Kronk dumped her there months later for reward money :waitasec::waitasec:

well...just kind of skip over that......and ... :floorlaugh:

 

[PMLsmom]

I can't wait to see this testimony! This is how I feel:

OT - That jacket just sold for 1.8 mil...

 

[KariKae]

I hope JA is drinking a Red Bull right now

 

[rose222]

O/T. Blagojevich found guilty on 17 counts.
I hope sometime next week or the week after we have a guilty verdict for Casey!
