This is one of the most damaging statements KC made as far as I am concerned. The first time I heard it and the emphasis she put on it to LE I knew she had a part in Caylee's murder. You can bet LE did too.
I won't go into my personal family histrionics, needless to say I have a female relative who would rather live the "inventive" and drama life with her children rather than allow them to live a stable life with other relatives or the other bio parent, out of spite.
LA isn't any different from the rest of the A Clan camp; he just had the common sense to see CA/GA/KC in public displays and quickly decided to play the silent act since the rest of the family was being rightfully vilified in pubic. IF LA was going to be Caylee's voice, he would have done it immediately. He knows ....... his involvement ...... CA and GA's involvement and KC's involvement in Caylee's murder. He knows and still he is silent. :furious: He is a coward at best. :banghead:
ITA, except for the coward part. I know I wasn't the easiest sibling to grow up with, and I know my siblings were grateful to have our parents deal with me instead of them. Of course, I'm not a murderer either, and if I did do something horrendous like that, I'd expect them to hold my feet to the fire. But I also would understand if they wanted to stay out of it and let me deal with the problem I created for myself. The hardest thing in the world is to stay out of something and let the person deal with their own problem, and I think that is what he has decided to do. It must hurt him terribly, but this is Casey's ordeal of her own making, and she should be the only one who has to suffer consequences for what she did.
I guess having my own psychological and social problems growing up, I can definitely see how LA would just want to completely stay out it. It's not his mess, he didn't create it, and he shouldn't have to be drug down by his sister by being a part of this whole mess. I am glad that his parents haven't forced him to still be a part of this, but I do wish he never had to be a part of it in the first place.
It doesn't excuse his actions, but he is the better kid and deserves to have a better life no matter what his sister does to mess things up for the whole family. I'm fine now with a good life, but I would NOT want to the be the one to drag down anyone in my family with my problems over the years. My brother told me at my wedding two years ago that I was his hero, and that meant so much to me because I know it was so hard growing up as a normal kid next to a social outcast/family problem of an older sister. To this day it still hurts to me think how my problems affected my brother and sister as we grew up together.
Of course, that separates me from Casey, who doesn't care who she drags down as long as she gets off and gets the life she wants. I hope Lee doesn't let her drag him down with her. He doesn't deserve it, and I wish his parents would see that they don't deserve it either. Of course, they created their own mess and drug themselves down with Casey, but I wish they had known that they didn't have to go down with Casey in the first place. A lot of this mess would have been avoided.
I do wish he would speak up for Caylee, but maybe, just maybe, he's waiting for the trial to do that. It's the last hope I have for him. If he doesn't come out at trial on Caylee's side, then I am through with him and he really is a coward.
