:blowkiss: I just know that Brad is thinking glad I bailed and it was not a moment too soon. You really could never make up such a thing, one is to donate one or two pair of shoes, and refer to that as being involved in a charity. Apparently she has never done any charity work. I take my nieces to the food bank once a month and we work, hard. Even at their age my brother is trying to teach them about service to others. If only Casey grew up in a home that truly did charity work, perhaps we wouldn't have the Casey we have in front of us. Someone asked me why I bash Cindy since she is just a side note. I just don't see her as irrelevant. The more of these little stunts, the fake letter she wrote regarding Mark Nejame, the more I realize if Casey is morally bankrupt, she was not born that way. She had twenty two years of this type of behavior from mom, and lying and wasting away the family income and utter betrayal to learn at pop's knee. Don't get me wrong, Casey gets no pass from me. If the jury should find that she put tape over that beautiful child's mouth and nose so that she would have to fight to breathe, I want her in jail. Forever.
What I am saying is seeing Cindy in action, I no longer question how did the adorable little Casey in those family photos Terry Lennoman used in his memo to the ADA grow up to be without empathy, with out shame. She learned what she lived, lying, manipulating, and absence of honor and loyalty, hubris and utterly self serving behavior.
It is a cautionary tale. In order to model upstanding behavior, first one has to know what that is.
As the Bible tells us: "He who spareth the rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him correcteth him betimes" (Proverbs 13:24). The reason this didn't work with Casey, imo, is that Cindy did not recognize what situations would call for correction. Yep, that pretty much sums up the problem. If Cindy can take her seven month pregnant daughter to a family wedding with two hundred guests who see her beach ball tummy, then I now do agree that Casey may never plead guilty. IMO Casey is just a Cindy, Jr., in stripper boots.
Quotes from FL defense lawyers:
"I do think she will plead at the last minute, a trial would be suicide and only make things worse."

"You can pretty well predict there's going to be a life sentence, either a plea and get it over with or have a circus trial and then be convicted and get life," lead attorney for Casey Anthony, Cheney Mason said.

If children live with fear, they learn to be apprehensive.
If children live with pity, they learn to feel sorry for themselves.
If children live with ridicule, they learn to feel shy.
If children live with jealousy, they learn to feel envy.
If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.
If children live with tolerance, they learn patience.
If children live with praise, they learn appreciation.
If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.
If children live with recognition, they learn it is good to have a goal.
If children live with sharing, they learn generosity.
If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.
If children live with fairness, they learn justice.
If children live with kindness and consideration, they learn respect.
If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and in those about them.
If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.
