If it is Caylee: it is great that there is now a body so that she will not get off due to reasonable doubt.It is quite interesting as we have been provided so much information information in this case, and I am sure it will be known to the jury.Just the evidence I have seen per Florida SS law, I would be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt, now that the baby was found so close to home.
My thoughts exactly. She was mimicking her mom IMO.
I think this was one of the rare moments where KC was verging on telling the truth.
LA was quizzing KC why she wouldn't take them to Caylee -- "Because I'm a spiteful b....?" was a dagger into CA, payback for the argument that occurred on June 15. She was still jabbing at CA but also on the edge of fessing up to LA. She had intimated that maybe this should have been done a long time ago.
But LA said when the LE arrived that's the first thing they'd require KC to do, take them to Caylee. As LA stated, it was a light bulb moment for KC when she realized maybe the game was finally up. Caylee paid the ultimate price for the CA <> KC fight.
KC spills the beans on not seeing Caylee for 31 days, twice. Stunned LA tried to quietly ask many questions but CA was hovering and came back in blasting to ask, "What have you done?" and then "Who took her, who took her?"
The moment was lost. CA railroads KC and KC just holds out on her. CA had pushed KC too hard, too far -- no excuses but it was payback time for KC. All chips in.
I think that this portion of LA's testimony will be used to highlight a "confession" of sorts on KC's part. She basically said she was responsible when she made this statement.
MOO
Rather amazed to find only 4 pages of discussion on what maybe the closest thing we have to Casey admitting true motive to her actions.
Paraphrasing Shirley...perhaps she hated her mother more than she loved Caylee.
Exactly, her spiteful ***** comment, added to the Diary of Days piece she put out to her mom, speaks volumes. I think she was definitely telling Cindy something major with this...That little tidbit coming out of Casey's mouth was like a window into her soul.
The statement proves to me that she knew darn well what she had done. It proves she was aware of her actions and not under any mental distress. She takes ownership of her actions too, it is an I statement and not a Zanny did it lie. She was declaring her power and control over CA. I think there is a hint of that in the "Diary of Days" about there coming great consequences. Later, Casey complained that she lost alot of her control and power once she got into jail...go figure.
*snipped*Either scenario indicates intent of some kind. And the word "spiteful" hints at a motive.

Precisely, Cecy.
Over the course of the afternoon's events Casey was being held to task. When Cindy persisted beyond the @-the-nanny's-&-don't-disturb-her story...Casey began to wear thin. When Lee joined the scene Casey uttered the "spiteful..." line she also offered that this should've been done earlier. While Casey could've been implying that she should've withheld Caylee from Cindy before now, she could've also been implying that she should've been held to task before now. The subject of being judged an unfit mother by Cindy was in the mix too.
When considered along w/ the DoD's "On the worst of worst days, remember the words spoken..." she penned after viewing Caylee's pic @ the nursing home for the last time 7/2...it speaks to me of a clear connection between Casey's actions and a motive tied to spite and Cindy.
IMHO, these two items give us the best available insight into Casey's motive...and duct tape aside...stronger support for some level of pre-meditation.
The fact that KC even uses the phrase - which at that point implies she is unwilling to take CA to see Caylee - indicates - if not a confession - at the very least she is upset with her mother about something big and has withheld allowing her daughter to return home. People don't all of a sudden take off like that without a reason. It's the best evidence we have that something significant went on between KC and CA, despite her claims there was no fight on the 15th (which may be true - the actual fight may have taken place on the 9th, as KC spent the 10th at RM's. It would also explain why the 9th stuck out in everyone's head as a date of consequence and appeared on the LE report as the date Caylee left home).
However, if there truly was no fight, then it would signal that whatever happened to Caylee was done from spite and not simply something accidental as CA and GA have wanted to believe.
Either scenario indicates intent of some kind. And the word "spiteful" hints at a motive.
Bond I never knew about the part I bolded. How soon after viewing the pic did she write the DOD? Minutes? TIA
