2011.07.09 - Per Mason, Casey is not going home

[BetteDavisEyes]

CNN and HLN are available throughout the Caribbean, and let's not forget the world wide web of the internet. The Casey Anthony saga has been global from the get-go, so she will have a very hard time being out in public view without eventually being noticed. jmo

I watched HLN in Aruba for three weeks (not the whole time, lol, but to catch up) and they do not have commercials but put the world weather reports on. I was so sick of that music by the time I left. lol

But do you think that the State just slept through jury selection? I don't understand how they could have allowed such a jury to be seated, if it was obvious (which I did not think it was) that they were pro-defense all along.

I pray this is not taken in the wrong way, but as I noticed, productive members of society who had jobs were dismissed due to "hardship", as most jobs would not pay them for a 6-8 week trial. That leaves retirees (not saying they did not work their whole life), people in school who tend to be younger, housewives, disabled, and others on the "fringe" of society who do not have daily obligations. Also, I thought it bizarre if these people were telling the truth during jury selection, many indicated they were not up on world events, did not read many newspapers other than their local paper, did not do much reading on the internet, etc. Also, if anyone did not agree with the DP (which I will admit I do not, I could myself never serve no a DP jury as I do not believe in it), they were also dismissed. So you are left with what you are left with. IMO, MOO. that is why jury selection is SOOO important, IMO.

I kind of thought that was to read up on what names some of the other prisoner's were calling her. jmo

Didn't someone say that CA didn't like ICA's hispanic boyfriend, so wouldn't ICA be sticking it to CA once again by going to PR (and of course hooking up with a couple of boys from la isla)?

I think it is going to be a lot harder than she thinks. First of all, she owes the IRS at least 65 grand and the court about 4 grand. Then she has to battle at least 3 lawsuits that we know of: Zenaida, TES, and the State of Florida.
Then possibly the bio paternal grandmothers suit, if that works out.

So she will have to pay legal fees for these 4 lawsuits if she is making any money from her notoriety. And she will have depos and hearings so she cannot have a makeover and stay 'anonymous,' Plus her interviews--she cannot be on camera and stay hidden in the public afterwards.

So BEFORE she does this makeover and name change she has to fight these legal issues and do her public appearances.

And, imo, she is a loose cannon. She is going to say very controversial things in her interviews. I HOPE that anyone who offers her $$$ requires her to be LIVE on camera. Otherwise her DT will try and edit out her many gaffes.

I believe she will act all upbeat and happy go lucky, and will tell us that she is trying to get pregnant, and that she plans to counsel abused teens. LOL

Remember CM saying that they had tons of offers to "help her" coming into the office? Who's to say that one of them wasn't from a doctor who wanted to say "I gave tot mom a new face"....extension of time in jail.....secretly leaving in cars with tinted windows....going reportedly straight to the airport. It could happen, especially since they have had sooo much negative responses from the public!

And all of her boyfriends were Italiano or Latino IIRC. She likes the PR boys I bet. She thinks she will be well received there and embraced by the community. We'll see.

True, but she has 3 or 4 lawsuits pending so she will have to deal with those eventually. She cannot leave and ignore these suits or she could be rearrested.

And IF she wants to collect money for interviews she will have to be on camera. So I doubt she wants to have plastic surgery and THEN go on camera. So she will have to postpone that for a little bit, imo.

Unless of course she gets a huge book and movie deal. If she makes a million bucks upfront she might just move to another country and hole up in a resort compound.

Wherever she goes, I hope they have wi-fi. I would love to be a fly on the wall when she hops on the Internet and reads what everyone really thinks about her.

I just read a little about it. He moved to Germany after his child was killed. But he was very outspoken with the Germans not to get into a war with the US and encouraged the Nazis to take the war eastward toward Asia and tried to keep them away from Britain and the US. Once Japan entered the world he returned to the US. Roosevelt did not like him and called him a Nazis and had Hoover investigate him (funny coincidence PI here is Hoover). Other than CL running some bootlegging when he was younger there was nothing. And we all know where the Kennedy's money came from. But if his family was from Germany, many Germans during the war were not Nazis. Many Germans were terrified to open their mouths in fear of what would happen to them because of Hitler. I don't think CL would qualify though as infamous. There were also many Germans at the time who did not want the war Hitler was raising and tried to keep it from happening and weren't as lucky as CL in getting away. jmo

BBM. Let's not bring politics into this...we also know the Bush family augmented their wealth with deals with the Nazis.

eta: I generally have agreed with your viewpoint in this case...so ((((hugs)))

They'd be measuring the needle had they gotten a bunch of us nosey housewives on the jury:floorlaugh:

So are we giving the DT ideas on what to do with FCA? I'll donate three pieces of duct tape and two trash bags.

If she does any interviews, the questions will be agreed upon by her and her lawyer - whoever it is at the time. The whole thing will be scripted and will be more lies. I really don't think she's going to start telling the truth about anything at this point.

LF -young female attny in court - said in interview on wesh today, that Kc is "sweet" and has potential and she "believes in" her. She just needs to get an education and "grow".

I guess she suckered a very smart young woman. She'll never stop.

It's all good, ECA will grow increasingly hubristic and it will undo her.

Defense lawyers always say stuff like that about their clients, it's part of their job, they don't expect anyone to believe it.

BBM, Jury duty is a hardship for persons with disabilities. I was excused from jury duty in May with a note from my Dr. detailing why it would be physically hard for me to serve. I've reported for jury duty in the past, and this time I said "not again." I'm ambulatory disabled which sometimes is more difficult than being in a wheelchair. In the past when I showed up (but never chosen because of my profession), I got the long, fast walks (b/c the judge wanted us like an hour ago) down the block, across the street, through winding halls, and the bathrooms were nowhere close to the courtroom. Additionally, when you think about it, persons with visual or auditory disabilities would have a difficult time serving, particularly in a trial such as this one.

I wasn't bringing politics into it. I was stating a historical fact not that I was trying to say it was wrong. I think prohibition was wrong and if someone made money off of selling liquor more power to them. You make money by seizing an opportunity. I did not know that about the Bush family. Was it done right before the war?

Especially for long trials, we need to pay people a decent wage for serving, so more people could. Childcare, either onsite or reimbursed might be an additional option. We really should end sequestration which encourages group dynamics to emerge which can possible skew the verdict. Jurors should be free to go home at the end of the day. Changes of venue should likewise almost never used. There should be fewer outs. Everyone serves, kind of like a draft. We need to work toward expanding the pool...pay well, three outs and then you're in and in keeping people away from potentially damaging group dynamics.

I agree that Joseph Kennedy was shady nine ways to sideways. However Prescott Bush was in on the action from the beginning, http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar, and many other sources out there.

When I say let's leave politics out of this...I don't care what CA and GA's political leanings are. And I seriously doubt ICA even has a clue. She's probably one of "those" people who could not come up with the name of the current U.S. Vice President (Joe Biden). I have family that, sadly, would be gob-smacked if asked that question.

Joe Biden is the Vice President????? LOL We never see him, well I don't watch much TV so he could be one and I just have not seen him lately.
