From most of the comments it seems like a lot of people have made up their minds and won't even consider that it could have been an accident. I keep reading that it doesn't matter how she died just that Casey did it, well how do you know that? I don't see any concrete evidence showing me that Casey murdered Caylee. The only thing that I see that even comes close to tying Casey to this is her trunk (the smell and hair), but that only proves that she put her in the trunk. It doesn’t prove that she murdered her. She could have accidentally drowned or died from being left in a hot car. I’m not saying that this is what happened, BUT without knowing how she died how can anyone say she is guilty of first degree murder? This is why the jury will have to believe that chloroform or the duct tape was used as a weapon otherwise it hasn’t been proven BARD. JMO
Ok, so let's say it was an accident. Let's say she found her baby in the pool.
LOTS AND LOTS of questions then arise:
WHY didn't she call for an EMT to try and save her child?
Surely if she is telling the truth about her Dad being there, he would have known how effective oxygen machines and paramedics can be.
Wouldnt they have screamed and made a ruckus if they found Caylee in the pool? Did they instantly decide to be quiet and cover it up?
There are at least 2 houses with a clear view into the Ant's backyard. How did they expect to pick a dead child out of the pool and know they wewre not seen?
Why would some one cover up an accidental death by making it look like a MURDER? Does that make any sense?
And WHY would a detective do so?
Toddlers die in pools every day in Florida. There is no extensive criminal punishment involved. UNLESS it is very negligent, like the child was left alone or something like that.
So assuming it was just an accident, WHY wasn't the mom grieving or sad? She went on a movie date hours after the 'tragic accident' and was flirting and laughing AND she essentially moved into her boyfriends house that VERY NIGHT.
Why assume it was a tragic accident if the mom was so seemingly happy and carefree from within HOURS of the drowning?
And IF It was an accident, then WHY sit in jail for 3 years? Her original excuse for not reporting it was that she did not want her mom to know.
OK, then once her mom DID KNOW, once her mom found out the child was missing, and the cops begged her to admit it was an accident---WHY not do so? [ I have an idea---maybe if she had let them find the body too soon they might have ben able to test for drowning etc. So she had to wait it out,maybe.]
Ok, so if it was an accident, and she decides to cover it up---does it bother anyone that she tried to blame others for kidnapping/murder? Seems rather harsh for a innocent grieving mom whose child accidentally drowned.
I AM SORRY. But it really bothers me because Casey's behavior after the fact was so horrendous. She really should be held accountable for that, imo.
She promised her parents that the child was fine, and would be home for her birthday.
SHE HAD THEM PLAN A BDAY PARTY FOR CAYLEE. If that does not tell us just how much she hated her parents, nothing will, imo.
