I'm a newbie too. Hope is a wonderful thing. I think everyone on this board would be doing cartwheels if Caylee was found safe and sound.
But then there are statistics. And the few facts we do have: That Casey was out partying when her daughter's whereabouts were unknown. Whether it be for 5 minutes or all night, how do you put on makeup and a dress and smile pretty for the camera when your two-year-old is GONE? Research my butt.
She's been proven a liar. Maybe not to the extent that she's a murderess, but we know she lies. Her credibility ain't all that, KWIM?
And I find it extremely arrogant that she thinks, as a 22-year-old unemployed fabricator that she could do a better job at "investigating" than LE. That takes cahunas, IMO.
I've had a child harmed by another's hand. And yes, I was calm and rational when I had to talk to homicide detectives and medical personnel. And I did talk. I told them everything I could possibly think of to help them. And then I would go into the hospital waiting room or my child's hospital room and sob. Not for me, but for my child. I'd like to see Casey's cell video. Is she lying on her bed sobbing uncontrollably? Reports so far are about her reading law books and sleeping. Not grieving. And even if she knows Caylee is alive, she would still be grieving. What mother could stand to be separated from their child for 2 months and not have a broken heart?
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, chances are pretty good it's going to be a duck. Either that, or the Anthony family is having the worst string of co-inky-dinks and bad luck I have EVER seen.
