We do all want the killer held accountable for the repulsive crime that happened to Caylee, that goes without saying. But there's no proof released (so far) that Casey is the one who did that to her. Casey is obviously not the only person who could have taped Caylee's face or put her body in the trunk of the Pontiac, or at that site. And no forensic evidence (released so far) connects Casey to the action of taping Caylee or placing her remains at the site, no hair, dna on the tape etc that match Casey. She didn't have exclusive access to anything found with Caylee. Meanwhile there was hair from someone else on the Disney bag (that had the gatorade bottle with the syringe that had steroids and chloroform in it) and there is DNA from someone else on the tape.
We have to keep in mind there was absolutely no history of abuse or neglect. Caylee was a healthy, happy, well adjusted toddler all the way up to the June 15 video. All witnesses said that Caylee was very bonded to Casey and vice versa.
Regarding mental illness or some kind of medical delirium or disorientation, IMO there's plenty of indications that Casey could be delusional or delirious or confused in some way, or even traumatized for all I know. For example, her illogical statements to LE, inability to provide basic information for the weeks in question, confusion of past and present events, still thought she worked at Universal and frequented Sawgrass etc, her belief that she had a movie star as her coworker, and about one of her co-workers being a "different" Jeff Hopkins. The fact that she told one story about Caylee's going missing at Sawgrass, then very shortly after told a different story (Jay Blanchard Park) and apparently didn't see any problem with telling two different stories. The way the video of Caylee talking about her book seemed to have morphed in Casey's mind into a phone call she'd received from Caylee in which she talked about her book. A sane person would know all these things would very quickly be disproved, and would only make her look bad for saying them. Her theme that someone had given her a sort of verbal script to tell police, her theme that others had stolen her life, etc. Her failure to report the disappearance, her vagueness and illogical thinking processes and actions during the missing weeks and after, her completely inappropriate affect in mid-July, no urgency, no concern, preoccupied with trivial things, very flat voice and affect, very thin, vacant expression, etc. (Old friends said this was not like the Casey they knew at all, big change.) And on and on.
The detectives noticed how strange her statements were and asked her if she'd ever been committed at the mental hospital before. One of the defense attorneys also wanted to pursue the mental health angle (he left the team when this was not done.) Also, on the purely medical side, there's the history of (apparently untreated) seizures. I'm also curious about the way her eyes jiggle and wonder what the cause is. Personally, I do think it likely that either medical issues or mental health issues could be involved. Might not have anything to do with her being a killer. MOO
First I have to tell you, I thought you were joking... The more I read I realized how serious you are.
Re "But there's no proof released (so far) that Casey is the one who did that to her". I disagree, granted, the proof is circumstantial, but people are convicted on much less everyday. GA said he saw them leave on 6/16 - in ICA's car. There is nothing that leads to or even suggests that ICA left Caylee with anyone (who exists outside of Fantasyland). ICA was the last person to see her daughter alive unless there is someone she was involved with - who she never called, never texted, never emailed and never pinged. (aside from the nonexistent-nanny).
Her car, (that AL saw her leave in the parking lot) was towed -
reeking from decomp, (er zombie squirrels with pizza) -
ties her to Caylee's tiny remains -
the remains, with
Caylee's WTP blanket, the rare duct tape, toy horse and a shirt that Caylee was photographed wearing, tie Caylee therefore ICA, to the house (That just happens to be down the street) and next to a place that ICA and friends hung at and used for dead pet disposal, when they were kids.
If not ICA then who? Who had access to Caylee, the tape, the heart shaped stickers, found with her packet of crafts odds 'n ends, the linen bag that CA said she gave to ICA for her laundry and the trunk of the Pontiac in the week of June 16th?
Precious Caylee's remains were scattered over almost an acre of property - tiny little bones the size of pebbles - after sitting out in the elements for 6 months. I'm not in the least worried about what we haven't seen at this point - what we have seen is telling enough.
Re: LE - Yes, LEOs asked if she had been hospitalized for mental issues - she replied "no" She bragged to CPS that she had a psych eval and was found to be completely sane - in the same conversation (at home, to CPS) she claimed to still be working at Universal. That does not make ICA crazy - it makes her a bad liar.
Anyone in their right mind would find ICA and her crazy stories "
off" that much is true, but it does not make her criminally insane. When push came to shove, ICA admitted to the LEOs with her at Universal, that she does not work there - she wanted them to hand out flyers or something, and to look at video to see if Caylee had been there!
(RIGHT!)
Re: "her theme that others had stolen her life" - really? do you have a link for this I must have missed it. The only whining I have heard about her life is complaints that she is locked up (where, IMO she belongs) when she missed a fine chili dinner on Caylee's BDay and assumed others had been there to "party". She sounded down right pizzed off when she related this to GA - but never once did she mention Caylee, or ask how her family got thru the day. Just more poor me, me, me...
Re: seizures - One seizure has been reported, while she was sleeping off a hard nights partying - she was taken by ambulance, to the ER - where a work up was done and she was deemed healthy enough to be released. Cindy claimed the results of testing found her to healthy and free from drugs. I have not seen anything that would suggest she had other seizures. Of course CA also claimed that ICA was a virgin, with a baby sized tumor, just weeks before Caylee's birth...
Re "her belief that she had a movie star as her coworker"/a coworker named JHopkins, who had a son (Zack) and mother (who got married and left for a world cruise) -
yet she has no real coworkers or supervisors, and her "work" consisted of web surfing, e-mailing and texting - the use of these names came from ICA and her mother who said, ICA was here or there, with these people (who don't exist) while in fact she was shacked up locally, stealing from family and friends - even admitted to stealing, all in the name of looking for Caylee, (in bars/clubs and ??) - who had been triple bagged and dumped around the block from her parents home.
Re: "All witnesses said that Caylee was very bonded to Casey and vice versa. ..there was absolutely no history of abuse or neglect. Caylee was a healthy, happy, well adjusted toddler all the way up to the June 15 video."
Look again at the video of Caylee on June 15, compare it too some of the older videos - Caylee was neither happy nor was she healthy looking. She had dark circles under her eyes, she sat on her GGrandpa's lap clinging to him - something that surprised even CA, who said Caylee hadn't seen him in awhile and she thought Caylee might be shy or afraid. That video showed a very different Caylee than the child we have seen in so many pictures and videos. CA missed her chance to save Caylee, big time.
All the witnesses of late (outside the compound) barely knew Caylee, Tony had seen her 2 or 3 times and
he had to tell ICA that Caylee really didn't belong in his apt. On the nights ICA was shacked up with RM - Caylee slept in the same bed with him and her mother! Some of the people ICA associated with claim she was drugging Caylee, so she didn't have to be bother by Caylee waking up, while she partied! I would call these episodes abusive and neglectful.
Re: "some kind of medical delirium or disorientation" - ICA sure wasn't looking out of it in BlockBuster, renting videos with her flavor of the week. Nor did she appear dazed or confused in the party pics from Fusion. All these photos are from the week Caylee "disappeared" off the face of the earth! Yeah, ICA was truly suffering.
None of these young, childless folks seemed terribly concerned that Caylee, a tiny not yet 3 yr old toddler was going to theme parks, beaches or what not every day, with a babysitter - instead of spending time with her mother, had it been true, I can guarantee you Caylee would not have been the happy camper ICA was, not to have to drag Caylee around - spoiling her "Beautiful Life".
