I am not sure that I agree that George would remember accurately.
Not the same situation, but in my mind my life depended on it.
When I was in JR high, I was attacked on my way to school by a guy in a car.
I fought and was able to get away, and for as long as I live his face will be forever in grained in my brain but for the life of me I can not nor could not then tell police what he was wearing, or what kind of car he was driving. I remember some details about the car like what the interior looked like, what the rear view mirror looked like, what color the car was but could not tell you make and model. Nor could I tell you what the man was wearing.
It wasn't that I didn't know because I was really into cars. I am almost always able to tell you a year, make and model of cars and even possibly the engine type lol.
So I mean it wasn't life or death but in a way it was because I remember feeling like if he was caught then I would be safe. I missed almost 13 weeks of school that year because I associated going to school with being attacked and I slept in my parents bed for a good year or so afterwards.
I am so sorry for your awful experience. Yes I totally agree and understand what you are saying. But you did remember that guys face and like you said it was grained in your brain. And you couldn't remember other details because for you at the moment you focused on that guy's face. That guy did something horrible to you and managing to escape you hold tight on that image to report him to the police. But if some of us are asked to describe what a person looks like that we met yesterday on the supermarket line we wouldn't be able to do it unless there was some reason for us to remember. This is my point I guess.
I am not saying George remembers accurately. I am saying it is not surprising/strange IF he remembered all those details. And again I am not saying that his account is truthful. I am just debating the could someone remember so many details? Absolutely yes. And we are talking about people with average memory. Now if someone has also received training for his observation/memory skills....
What I don't find strange is Casey and Caylee especially wearing the same clothes for many days. My strong suspicion is that they lived/slept/spent a lot of hours in the car for certain days....the fact that Casey requested to take a shower at a friend's home. Who goes to a friend's house and has a shower? Someone who doesn't have a roof above their heads.
