Very flimsy evidence for a murder conviction.
I disagree.
George and Cindy "thought" they smelled decomp in the trunk, but now believe it was something else. The detective "thinks" he smelled decomp, but it's not proven (subject to testing, of course).
Smell is something that comes from the human senses. There is no test to validate what people think they smell.
They are ON RECORD stating that they think it smells like a dead body.
Car broke down or was out of gas.
Prove it. Easy to do. Investigators would have this info.
Hair in trunk is evidence of nothing. What is the stain? For all we know it could be soda pop. Decomp smell? Not yet proven.
Hair that has banding demonstrates that it came from a corpse.
Soda pop stains don't smell like dead bodies, nor do cadaver dogs alert on them.
Decomp Smell? Very well proven. Smell is one of the five senses, and every person who's had occasion to be near this car has said that it smelled like a dead body. On record.
It can't be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is no Zenaida.
Sure, there are plenty of Zenaidas. None have Caylee, though. Common sense tells us this.
Casey lied about her job - Casey is a liar. That doesn't mean she's a murderer.
No, but all the evidence is pointing in that direction.
She couldn't pick up Casey because she couldn't find her.
She couldn't find her because she wasn't looking for her. She KNEW where she was--dead.
Why did she borrow a shovel? To dig up Bamboo. Can anyone prove otherwise?
Yes, LE can prove what she did with the shovel. That's why they took it into evidence.
But you go right on ahead believing whatever obsfucation Cindy is spouting each day.
Casey's lack of concern and lies about where Caylee was - that's the big one. Do the lies prove murder? That's what the jury will have to decide.
According to homicide investigators, her behavior is typical for a mother who kills her child.
I believe that Caylee is gone and that Casey is responsible, but proving murder in a courtroom isn't about beliefs, it's about evidence. There is plenty of room for reasonable doubt at this point. If the testing from the car comes back positive for Caylee's DNA and decomp fluids, there's no doubt in my mind that Casey will be convicted...but of what?
How do you know what cards LE is holding? You're trying to formulate a premature defense against a case for which you don't have all the details and evidence. LE hasn't released all the details of this case...that's common strategy for LE to withhold details in hopes that they can continue to bring forward tips.
From the info that we are privy to, there's very little doubt what happened. Basic common sense, Occam's Razor. It's pretty obvious that this child is dead and that her mother is responsible.
Of course, WebSleuths isn't a court of law, so we don't have to meet the "presumption of innocence" requirement that the jurors on this trial most certainly will have to.
