I do not want to make a mountain out of a molehill but .... Any additional insight would be welcome.

Shadow, jus' wanted to say I always appreciate the thoroughness of your posts. It is clear you take a tremendous amount of time organizing this information and sharing it for everyone's benefit. :blowkiss:
Per another post it does appear the Caylee news was splashed all over the local media 7/16AM, so there at least appears to be a legit means for she & Vicky to know about it when they contacted Matt C.
I found no evidence in the phone logs of contact between Casey and either Katie or Vicky.
A few curious things for me:
1) Obviously, IF Katie refused to speak w/ LE as has been reported, but, seemed to toss Vicky under the bus to LE there must be some reason. Perhaps it has nothing to do w/ this case, but, certainly sent up a flag that there could be more. Everyone has hit on this one. :waitasec:
2) I have seen pics of Vicky on her myspace site. I have NOT seen pics of Katie. Vicky was in pics of St. Patty's party @ Lake Vaj this year. Dunno if Katie was in any of those pics. Maybe they know each other from hs, but, don't hang/party together. Casey doesn't appear in St. Patty pics. Vicky and another girl are in "bday" pics w/ Sean D. & Danny C. @ TGIF (recall ZFG's roomie worked there). Perhaps in Casey's eyes Vicky was sorta competition for the Lake Vaj guys' attention. IMHO, absent ANY cell contact to support it, they don't appear to be "friends"...just know each other from hs and party w/ the same crowd. IF Casey disliked/was jealous of Vicky...that might be the motive for using her as a template.
3) Dante is in the St. Patty's party pics (asleep w/ eh, "artwork" being done on his face). Dante claimed, IIRC, that he didn't know anyone else @ Sawgrass that was a friend of Casey's. IF my speculation in (2) is correct, this would support Dante's claim. Maybe the Vicky-Casey connection was so loose, or, perhaps they were sorta rivals, hence, Dante might not connect them as "friends".
Jus' thinkin' out loud again...
