Caylee Anthony 2 year old #20 General Discussion

[liltigress]

it all depends on what kind of family you have. I know lots who have fam members they dont speak to on a regular basis. I am not close to either of my brothers. To be honest, if I were in this ordeal, I have friends who I feel like family that I would call. One brother, I wouldnt call at all.
yes, I guess we are dysfunctional but we dont get to pick out families.
It does sound like Cindy s close to her Mother and she goes and visits her Father at Nursing Home.
I dont know where Geoges family is. My husband is around same age and he had very little family left, just one brother who lives out of State.
What Im thinking is, Cindy gets th brunt of taking care of elderly parents and maybe her bro lives out of State and she might be resentful. I know people who are in same situation.
I am just surprised that people in orlando havent volunteered to do a massive search of the area to try and find Caylee its great that theyve put up myspace thing but doing an area search on area is better IMO.

I can see your point. I have a very close (and rather large extended) family and we would and have comforted each other in times of need, so to me, this behavior is strange. That's not to say it is wrong or right, just different than me.

Friends, co-workers, neighbors - it doesn't seem as if George and Cindy are getting a lot of support, but maybe they prefer to keep to themselves.

What about all of Casey's friends? Why aren't any of her multitude of buds and pals and BFF's participating in the search for Caylee? What do they know that we don't know?

I'm just going to throw this out here before i go to bed.
This may have been tossed out there in one of the many threads.
But I"m wondering if maybe Casey was getting into event promoting/go-go dancing i.e. gogoorlando.com , they have a myspace page too or maybe part of the 'Whats Hot Live Crew'.
I'm simply tossing this out there as an idea, based on the photos above.
SHe's on the platform with another dancer, and then maybe that is why she is getting her photos taken with other patrons/djs/entertainers.

Just speculating

I just watched it! They didn't pull it: http://www.myfoxorlando.com/myfox/p...n=1&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=VSTY&pageId=3.2.1

Thanks, I'll try again.

liljim, it's apparent that this may not be the crowd you are seeking to discuss this case with. For whatever reason, you insist on arguing...trying to bait others in to an argument - we are here to discuss CAYLEE and this case. PLEASE, stop.

I don't want to overstep my bounds here, but I don't think that poster is trying to cause arguments. They're just coming at this from a different angle. They happen to think it isn't relevant to the case/finding Caylee. No worries

I think I might come off that way in my posts, too...I don't want anyone to think that I'm picking apart their posts when I reply...I just think it's important to see a case from all angles, and I'm always hoping for others to dissect my posts, too, because I tend to miss a lot of good points (Like the one Blue Devil made earlier!)

I think it's important to get as many thoughts together as possible before you reach a conclusion...even if those are posts aren't posts I agree with.

So I don't think it is personal. No worries:blowkiss:

I found out a little while ago I have to get up in about 4 hours. So I won't say goodnight, I'll just say be right back. lol.

You are so lucky!

 

[babycat]

Gladly!

Oops...sorry...wouldn't have brought it up if I knew you were putting him on ignore.

sorry...shoulda kept my mouth shut

I have been reading this forum off and on for years. I am addicted to this case.

I keep trying to invent a different ending - some believable scenario other than the obvious.

Has anyone heard anything from the shovel loaning neighbor about the date? Middle of June is a little vague.

I never saw the news regarding her being on a suicide watch. A Dr would have had to clear her if that was the case...

I believe that after the (obviously pre-buried) dirt covered object was put in the trunk that the car did not travel far. Even a sociopath would have to be feeling a little sick and the smell would have been strong.

I would also be interested in finding out when the last service was done on the vehicle. Did they write down the mileage? It could potentially be helpful?

I hope I am wrong but I am betting there is water at the end of this story. Susan Smith, Scott Peterson - it's as though the really big liars think water will just clean up their messes...

 

[Blink34]

Why aren't they standing next to George handing out flyers? Were they at the vigil? Maybe they have been around and they end up on the editing room floor. Usually they don't though.

Suz- to date, that I am aware of, there is NOT a single extended family member that has come forward from either Cindy or George supporting Casey or this family- I find that truly bizarre. We've checked, we know they are out there.

 

[Mohabi]

Well, since she is the one who brought it up...and considering the cuss-words Casey throws at her mom...I have wondered if 'the nanny' did take Caylee not to the beach...but to the Beeo*ch. Meaning Cindy had her at the time of her disappearance? Cindy is the last person documented to have been with Caylee, per the Fathers Day video, correct? Plus Casey saying 'What do you mean, Mom, you don't know my involvement...', and Cindy just smirkily going into 'Sweetie...'

Just My Random Opinion, changing daily along with the facts of this case.

Truly..... I'm glad you posted this because it crossed my mind a couple of days ago. I don't want to be unfair to the Gma but everything about her makes my skin crawl.

 

[curiositycat]

Welcome Julie Ann!

 

[liltigress]

Sleuthers, here's a job for anyone interested. By the pictures with Casey and her "friend" dancing, I decided to look into the photographer, Teddy Pieper and came up with this:

http://theaudition.buzznet.com/user/photos/orlando-fl-photo-credit-teddy/?id=29037811

There are a couple of links I pulled from there that I'm looking at now. One in particular http://www.whatshotlive.com

Just wanted to throw something else in the pot to see if anyone feels like digging. There may be nothing to it, but it looks like the same atmosphere as we've been seeing.

I saw digging up bamboo as the reason for borrowing the shovel. I wonder if it was really dug up and what was done with it. Bamboo could provide a cover in the dumpster or dumped in some area or even be replanted over a body.

 

[Blink34]

On the vigil video, Cindy should have been a bit more gracious, in my honest opinion. When asked if she was surprised about the two churches coming out, her reply was so flat and matter of fact...almost like they owed her to be there. "No, I am not surprised. This is what this is all about. The community coming together to find this little girl.", she said.

Would have been a good time for her to have at least pretended she was grateful! Sheesh! I guess she will be really surprised when no one else shows up next time!

Gotta say from a psych perpective- I have not heard Cindy mention Caylee's actual name in days. If you note, she calls her my grandaughter, our little girl, this little girl, ect. I know that Le and the FBI encourages family to mention the missing childs name as often as humanly possible in any Media releases or events. I personally fee that is a sign that she knows she may know longer be with us, and is beginning that disconnect, grief to follow.

 

[curiositycat]

I think it's strange that Cindy doesn't have any work friends around her. Even if your family isn't near by you usually have friends at work, or neighbors.

 

[Leila]

yes, i totally agree. i think she is also hoping that if she whines long enough, someone will come out of the woodwork and be like, jesus lady, here is your f-ing granddaughter back. please go back to solely tormenting your own family.

lets keep our fingers crossed...

in all honesty, i dont think she knows what to do. i think she is desperately clinging to something, anything at this point. to let go now would mean accepting that her granddaughter is never coming home. and to do, she has to inger that her daughter is a murderer. so really, not pleasant any way you look at it.

No, not pleasant, but if Caylee is deceased, Cindy is going to have to eventually accept the fact that her granddaughter is dead and that her daughter, the child's mother, was involved.

I think we're seeing another Jackie Peterson in the making.

Any story with the shovel and bamboo is discounted by Casey's own story. Why would she need a shovel for bamboo after the nanny left with the kid?

 

[Truly]

i didnt even watch this creepfest, as you all are making it sound (god, im laughing...); but i think that the word you are looking for here is "staged."

everything they are doing now, it is for show. they are waging this public battle against the press, the police, and a magical disappearing arguably alcoholic kidnapping nanny that disconnects her phone lines like its her other day job, who may or may not be located in florida, new york, or north carolina, and who could potentially attack the anthony home if further provoked with casey's WMD, better known as words.

they unrealistically and unreasonably expect "supporters" to buy into their home-grown BS. for example, the poor grandfather handed out 50,000 flyers. useless flyers without any pertinent information. they have spoken to any and every media outlet that will give them time.

even in a situation as horrible as this one, its difficult to connect with any emotions when the family is shoving them down your throat.

'Staged' is actually one word which could explain this whole entire thing. Someone earlier (lol, might have been you!), said it seemed like a pilot for a new live-reality version of Where in the World is Carmen San Diego. All of the characters are over-the-top unbelievable. Nothing at all strikes me as real. Everything changes minute-to-minute, except those things which need to change, like the actual date of her disappearance. Every new thing which comes out has maximum shock value. The whole case is a hurricane of confusion and contradictory logic.

The only thing that holds me back from believing in this strange hunch, is the photo of this little girl, who deserves to be located. That and the dogs. Plus, I don't think anybody could make this stuff up. But it sure is odd.

 

[maconrich]

I believe I would be clinging to my friends and family, and hoping the madness will stop and bring closure.

Their denial is only going to extend the pain and prolong the healing process.

This being said with the assumption that Caylee isn't with us anymore.

Perhaps denial will slow down the healing process (ok it most likely *will*) but if that's what it takes for them to maintain their sanity right now, I can understand it.

No, it doesn't make some of the comments sound any better and it most likely isn't making a lot of people as sympathetic toward them as they might otherwise be. And in some ways it's not helping the investigation (as in them believing Casey's neverending stories).

But when my dad was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, I can honestly say (now) that I was in denial the entire 16 months -- from the day he was diagnosed until he passed away in December. Not denial that he *had* lung cancer, but denial that he wouldn't beat it. I grieved each and every day when I was *alone*, and I'm still grieving. But I'm not sure how (or if) I'd been able to get thru the meetings with the doctors, trying to keep my dad's, mom's and son's spirits up, researching everything to understand the chemo, etc if I *hadn't* been in denial!

When George spoke on Sunday it broke my heart. I can relate to what he said and that he *has* to hang onto hope. And I'd guess that Cindy is doing the same thing -- but her personality seems to be a bit abrasive and she's showing it differently (and isn't evoking sympathetic feelings).

Sadly, however, it seems they're going to have to face facts -- if indeed Caylee is gone - and if she is alive then who's body did the dogs pick up on?!?.

I don't know if they'll do as the judge on Geraldo said and try to protect Casey more if they know they've lost Caylee, but right now I don't believe that's what they're doing (even if that judge does). Just watching George's expressions and body language and hearing his voice - well that's not the impression I got. For me it seems clear he is hoping against hope that they'll find Caylee alive and bring her home.

Just my two cents being tossed into the wind...
