Do we really know that she left the state at all? For all we know, she stayed in the office for hours and then went to one of her attorney's home or a local hotel.
casey is going to have a good few days. She will have a nice, hot shower with good products. She will be able to use soft toilet paper which I hear they do not have at all in jail. She'll be able to watch t.v. and all the coverage of herself which she will love.
She'll get nice food sent up to her room, instead of rancid baloney. Then, she'll spend some time with a stylist, get to pick out make-up, sit by a pool somewhere getting the sun she's missed for three years.
All of that really, really rankles. Her baby's body is reduced to dust and casey is free to enjoy simple pleasures that she should never enjoy again.
But not to worry.
casey is not free to go clubbing or flirt with guys or chat with friends on facebook or via text or phone. None of the cool set of friends she had or the cute guys she dated want a thing to do with her now. And casey will not be able to simply go out without hecklers following and harassing her. She will have to hole up somewhere remote, without much freedom to go where she wants unnoticed or un-reviled.
And let's talk about money. Yeah, casey will likely get a million dollar offer for a book. I can't see that much for an interview - perhaps an extra 500 k for that. So from 1.5 million, deduct taxes (35%, and that's just the feds, not state taxes), and we are down to $975,000.00. From that, deduct the 68 k or so she now owes in taxes from selling Caylee's photos. Now we are down to about $907,000.
From that, deduct $4,600 in court fines: $902,000.00.
Now, several people are suing her. She will have to pay attorneys to defend her. It is unlikely that Baez and company will continue to "comp" her. They got their fame and client base from this case and will be unlikely to spend much more on her. So casey will have to pay her attorneys to fight those law suits. Take at least $500,000.00 more for defending three pending suits thus far (TES, Zenaida and Padilla's diver): $402,000.00.
And then what happens when and if she loses one of those suits? The state of Florida is very angry right now. Chances are she will lose at least one, due to the attitude (and the facts). Take at least another $100,000 for that: $302,000.00.
Of course, we still have the state's request that casey be made to pay special costs of the investigation. I doubt that will amount to much, but that's possibly another 10k.
So how long can casey live on about 300k? A girl who got fired from the only job she ever had and who refuses to work and even if she wanted to, would be unlikely to find someone willing to employ her.
It appears she no longer has mommy and daddy who can or will foot her bill. $300,000.00 is not going to last long.
Also, casey, being an irresponsible sociopath, will likely blow through much of what she gets, buying expensive clothes, a nice car, vacations overseas, etc. IMO, she won't even have enough to buy a home.
When she blows through it all, and her attorneys have moved on, it is very likely that we will see her begging for attention, ala Amy Fisher, trying to get on celebrity rehab or Dr. Phil or whatever. And eventually, she will reoffend in some manner. This time, the justice system will be unlikely to give her a break.
I feel a tiny sense of satisfaction from thinking about this. casey will end up worse than OJ, with nothing but strange people to consort with, even stranger than the ones he had around him. Her home state will remain unwelcoming as will much of the rest of the United States. All will not end well for this baby killer.
And that's the only bit of consolation I can grab from this tragic case of a sweet, precious little girl who was deleted by the people that should have loved her the most.
