What would you say to CA and GA if you were given the opportunity to speak with them one on one?

I have thought about this from just about every possible angle and this is what I have come up with....

Life is a mysterious catechism of events that can knock us to our knees, suspend us in air, or slam us farther into the ground than we could have ever imagined. You are in a dark place full of muck and unforgiving snares. You have made rash decisions, poor calculated choices, and stretched your physical and emotional abilities to the max. Do I believe that you had anything to do with your granddaughter vanishing? The answer is no, your initial reactions told a story of innocence on your part, but your reactions and ill will toward those trying to aid you tell a different story. You just like the rest of us are not exempt from speculation, information, or intuition. However, you do have one thing that no one else has. You know your daughter better than anyone could and that gives you a perspective that is uniquely yours.

I suppose as a bystander my initial confusion is why would you so avidly protect your daughter who is grown rather than placing the same energy on finding the truth about what happened to Caylee? I realize this is a difficult if not impossible thing to answer, being that you know in your heart that Caylee is gone and despite the horror of it all your duty to protect your daughter has kicked in, in full force. If you did not have uncomfortable suspicions you would have never searched for Casey and so frantically questioned her in the first place. You weren’t content with the idea of Caylee being under her own mother’s supervision, red flags were up before you even had a clue that Caylee was in danger.

Parents all over the world have children that do things that are not only disgraceful and embarrassing, but things that force an entire family unit to make decisions that are hard and life changing. I understand that you feel an obligation to stand up for your offspring, but the reality is being supportive and being enabling are two different things. Perhaps you made some mistakes and you feel partly responsible for the way Casey has turned out, but don’t put your pride before your precious granddaughter. Casey is no longer a child and as a result of you coddling her she has no respect for you, she is intentionally using you to fulfill a sadistic need to inflict misery on others.

You have the keys to unlock the Pandora’s Box that is Casey’s mind; you have the power to end this freak show. My first impression could be that you are gaining a sense of inner justice from this; you are the American family facing the tragedy. But it’s not fun anymore and the tragedy has become a game and you have begun to play it and your losing. No one likes to be wrong, no one wants to be told they are wrong, but the one place to never tell a lie is to a news reporter. This is stressful and we are all entitled to say and do wrong things, but when those things are a deliberate attempt to fool the very people who live to support you, it takes on a whole new face.

This is what it is, and it is going where it is going, and you are cutting your life lines away. The poison that is lurking inside your home is going to work its way into your lives to the extent that it will erode everything you have that’s good. Denial is one this but a blatant disregard for facts is another. Since when have you ever known Casey to tell the truth, and I implore you to give me one good reason you are choosing now to believe her. If it were someone else’s daughter on national television with a calloused face deliberately misleading law enforcement, would you feel sorry for her? The true answer to that would be no. You may think you are protecting your family or your rights, but in the end you’re only feeding a forest fire that is replacing your lives with ashes.

I know you lie awake at night listening to the protesters call you every name under the sun, and beneath it all you know there is truth to some of their words, but you also know the pain of facing that truth is far worse than maintaining the lie. You have not spent any of your time out searching with the hundreds who have dedicated their time to you, you have not looked at the situation for every angle and everyone does in a situation like this. Perhaps Caylee is alive but wouldn’t you want to be the first to know if she wasn’t? Searching for a dead Caylee is still searching and if you can’t go where the tips are you may as well aid in the local effort.

I am not perfect nor could I say what I would do in your shoes, but I can tell you this, you have the right and the responsibility to stand up for your granddaughter, even if it means telling Casey exactly how she has affected your life. She has been waiting 22 years for one of you to set her straight and just like any child her respect and ability to be honest can only be derived by it being expected. Our children only reach the potential we set for them and now is the time to raise the bar. You may feel like hope is lost, but there are a lot of people who would stand proudly by your side if you just faced reality. Don't allow her to completely destroy your lives, it will get better and you will put it back together but that is if you can resign yourselves from the obligation to defend and begin your journey to a legitimate end.

Wow, very well spoken or I mean typed!!
 
Honestly, I would tell them that I support them one hundred percent and I know exactly what they ae going through. Hold their hands coddle them, talk to George about the lawn and Cindy about the evil evil media.
NOT THAT I BELIEVE A WORD OF IT. But I think that is the only way that anyone would get through to them.
Why do you think that they don't confront Casey, that they coddle and sugarcoat everything, not mentioning Caylee?
Because they know that that is the only way that someone would get through to them. So they try it on Casey.
I would talk and listen and smile and never once mention Caylee. Only because I think it is the only way to get through.
 
I was hoping that other people would share what they would say. I think everyone thinks differently when face to face with the subject of their frustration. We all have ill or specific feelings toward this family and I suppose when thinking in this context I would assume most anyone would be more subjective. I recognize that some people might cuss them out if given the window of opportunity but I venture to guess most of us would try to employ every ounce of character we have in a one on one encounter.

Unfortunately I think you are 100% correct because a sick person is truely sick and sometimes in order to reach their level of communication you have to imitate and adopt their rational. I have a degree in psychology and it is well known that profilers use this tactic regularly. I know realistically this would be the way, but I am not being realistic I went for the what I would really want to say. But again you are right, however I think at this point I would be changing my methods because a child is far more important than a brick wall. JMO
 
I don't think I'd be sitting down...........and they'd probably be decomp in my trunk! :)
 
I would not know what to say, honestly. Yes, I would want to know how in the heck they could EVER believe the web that KC has spun. The human side of me...The Mother side of me feels for her. Fast forward 19 years for me. If I were in CA's shoes.....I would be going nuts. There are cameras outside my windows. There are protesters. There are people yelling at me. At ME. On the street. I am torn. I love my daughter and my granddaughter. Who in their right mind would say...."Yeah. My daughter was involved in the death of my granddaughter." WHO???? I would be in denial, just like her. I feel for her AND GA and LA and anyone else, for that matter. I guess I come from a different viewpoint.....I have had more loss in my life than I care to admit. Denial is a very normal thing. Give her time. I know that she loved Caylee. I hope that I am NEVER in her shoes.
 
I'm not saying the police did a bad job in questioning her, as I'm sure they have their reasons for asking what they did and not asking certain questions. Why do you suppose in the second part, when they were at Universal, didn't they ask her "Casey, why would you have needed a Nanny if you didn't work?"? She didn't even have a job when the Nanny was hired, according to her own timeline. What questions do you wish they would have asked her?
 
I listened to the Wesh.com recordings which cut off- I'm trying to catch up. Did they ever ask her about the DEAD BODY smell in the car?? If not WHY? Kind of important. They could immediately shoot down the ridiculous pizza theory.

Also, why did you leave TWO notes on the car saying you were out of gas?

Why didn't Tony take you to get gas and retrieve your car?

How were you getting around when you didn't have a car?

How did you have spending money? Money to pay the nanny?

Where did you go when you lied and said you were working all this time?

Did you ever work as an exotic dancer? Escort?

What movies made you afraid to contact authorities when ZG stole Caylee?

Why did you "pretend" to be having such a good time going out to clubs?

Why did you lie about working at Universal?

Why didn't you tell Tony or anyone else about Caylee being kidnapped?

Did Tony enjoy having Caylee around? Why did she never stay over night there w/you?

I think a lot of us noticed that when reading the 400 page release. They led right up to that question but never asked it. I was waiting! She was throwing lies at them fast and furiously, maybe they didn't have time for them all to register.
 
Casey left notes on the car saying she was out of gas? I never heard that.
 
I believe they knew that any question that they asked, the answer would be a lie. All she was doing was story telling and they knew it. They even told her in the beginning of the second interview that in the room there was combined 30 years of experience and that they all knew that she was lying from the get go. I am actually surprised that they went as far as they did. Then again, at the end of what we were able to listen to, they were trying to have normal chit chat conversation and the asking questions in between, I believe to try to make her comfortable and trip her up. However she still played it cool and stuck to her "story."
 
I wished they had asked When you left here at the stairs, what was nanny wearing?
Have you ever been in the apartment?
Did you give your mother a phone number for the nanny?
Did the nanny have a car, in case your child was injured?
How did you pay the nanny?
The questions are not to get a real answer, but to dispel the potential juror who may believe this "a nanny ate my baby" story. If there was a real nanny, she would have given her mom or dad a phone number since she claims there was a real nanny for over a year. I expect at trial, the prosecutor will ask Cindy this question.
 
There were a TON of questions LE didn't ask that they should have, especially considering the fact they already considered Caylee dead, by their own acknowledgedment in that line of questioning.

One statement I find particularly disturbing by Casey though, is one I have no explanation for ... despite my POV ... "My mom didn't want me to jogging [or in (can't remember)] that park for the longest because of that."

For the longest time? (Not asked)
"Because of that" (Not asked) ... That what? (not asked) ... This occurrance was on the same day she "apparently dropped Caylee off" (seems to me that her statement should be afforded the extra line of questioning ... many questions there.

I am not assuming that "That" has or does not have something to do with this case. Just keeping an open mind is all.

Still attacking every angle.
Too many absent questions in the interigation. Way tooooo many!
 
we know she lied through her teeth about everything, and would continue to when asked anything. But I would've like to see them heat it up a bit... they started to confront her on lies, but they didn't make it "hot" for her. Maybe taking a different approach would have done something. Being on "her side" didn't. Perhaps being a little more confrontational and cornering her in might have... she hadn't asked for a lawyer at that point, so they could have cornered her in a bit just to see how she reacted. That's basically what I'm saying.
