Yeah, maybe they can duct tape her to a handtruck a la' Hannibal Lector and roll her to the funeral under guard, but that is the only way she is going to the funeral. I think she will have to watch the funeral on tv along with everyone else. She made her own bed.
Oh I quite agree that she made her bed... I was more interested in the legal aspect of it. She is, in a court of law, presumed innocent. So if she's "hypothetically" not the perpetrator until proven to be, even with no bond, would the law look at the funeral of her daughter as something she would be allowed to attend, even with escorts/custodians/guards?
Let's assume [for a just a second ] - that there was indeed a nanny, and that the nanny is responsible for Caylee's death [I know :shakehead: ] - and KC wasn't allowed to attend her child's funeral... could the defense argue this point to a court and have them let her out to attend.
I agree 100% that she is responsible for murdering this precious baby, I'm just curious whether or not [legally] the presumption of innocence extends that far, to something as highly important as the funeral of one's child. Would there ever be such a motion? Precedence for such a motion? During a request like this, would the prosecution argue it's case against her [essentially laying their cards on the table prior to trial]?
It's not the emotional reaction to this question I'm after - I'm right there with you on that - just wondering if there are any legal eagles out there who know this portion of law.
I guess I got some part of it answered and maybe this is the crux if I'm understanding it correctly? Due the fact that she is held without bond, she has no rights. But is anyone charged with murder [innocent or guilty] held without bond? Or is it just this case? And did they have to set out the evidence to get her held without bond, or is everyone charged with murder [innocent and guilty] held without bond?
Thanks for the input!
Ditto
I thought that it meant they updated findcaylee website about discovery. The topics are all over the place.
I confuse easily though.
I thought it meant that the thread was discussion about the family after the remains were discovered, and that someone added their "statement" as an Update.
