But you have to remember they are asking for two things. One - to have an actual memorial service for little Caylee with all three attending, which probably violates their policy on the number of visitors allowed per visit. And Two - they are asking for a "private" meeting. That means no recording, no listening in. That is obviously against policy...and for good reason.
Why should they make an exception for Casey when they don't for any other inmates...many of whom are also awaiting trial or judgement? There are alot of people in there that are still legally "innocent" - but they are all still expected to follow the same policies of the jail. If they allow it for Casey, then all of the other inmates could start filing motions to be allowed to do the same. "Hey! I want MY private meeting with my family." "Hey - me too!" I just don't think they can open that can of worms. Given what Casey is accused of...I doubt they really want to anyway.
