I haven't seen the uncersored pictures. Wasn't the skull detached from the spine? Why would you need to cut off the top? Couldn't you just look thru the eye holes or turn it upside down to look at the inside of the top (sorry for gross out).
And what difference does it make anyway. Of course it would have been on its side at one time. If she were dumped feet side down her body would just fall over on its side.
So much I don't understand.
Dr G said that she saw no reason to further desecrate (paraphrasing) Caylee's body by cracking open her skull.
I see the ME testimony going something like this.
Spitz gets up there and talks about how he did the 2nd autopsy...
2 years ago...
before Jose was involved in the case 3 years ago...
when Dr Spitz became involved 1 year ago.
Huh?
Or maybe he will have his timeline straight by then. :waitasec:
He gets up and talks about how he cracked open the skull only to find nothing there. But he needed to do it because that's protocol.
Then they call Dr G who has ALL her facts straight... is likeable, articulate and easy to understand.
Then ask her why she did not crack open the skull... She says that she was able to see everything she needed to without doing so... So she did not feel the need to further desecrate the child's body by doing something so intrusive when it was not required for a thorough autopsy.
I rest my case.
The kicker here is George and Cindy were at work. That leaves Casey disappearing with the car which was missing until early July and her statements of where she was with that car. George had the duct tape much later than this horrible event. After his granddaughter was found to be missing and unknowingly used it to put up signs. That does not make him the only one to have possession of the duct tape at any time when Casey was seen in that home she also had access to that roll of duct tape. George wasn't home on the 16th after he saw Caylee alive. He was at work and Casey was not seen again with Caylee. Casey had physical possession of the most important piece of this puzzle. Not the duct tape, not the gas can, she had her daughter. And she was the one that lied about her whereabouts each and every day for 31 days and Caylee had not been seen by anyone since 6/16/2008.
They tested bones for drugs. The Doctor stated they would never expect that drugs would be found in bones 6 months later. The drugs would have been found in the organs of the body which were gone a long time before.
I disagree there are holes in the states case. And, the defense has back themselves into a corner. They themselves claimed their client lied. The State proved that Casey lied and can't be trusted. So now how is the defense going to put Casey on the stand and ask a jury to believe her? They already told the jury she lies.
Let's not forget also....
Who was it that talked to Casey that 6/16/2008 afternoon... Tony? Jesse? One of the men. Who heard Caylee in the background. Right around 3pm. George had to be at work at 3pm. This conversation occurred after George left for work.
Caylee was still alive during that conversation about 3pm.
Casey called Cindy that 6/16/2008 afternoon around 4pm to ask her to babysit. She wanted to drop Caylee off at Cindy's work. Something that Casey had done on multiple occasions for the last hour or so of Cindy's workday. Casey had no reason to expect her mother to refuse that day.
What if Cindy had said yes? Was Casey going to drop off a body??
Caylee was still alive when she made that call about 4pm.
I know Cindy mentioned the 4pm phone call in testimony, I don't recall if the 3pm call was mentioned in court. But hopefully the point of that day's schedule will be made more strongly... to debunk the defense's fantasy.
Duct tape is manufactured to stick to itself and the shiny side is very welcoming to anything sticky. And it is truly hard to get off. So now you understand why the duct tape may still have residue from the heart sticker?
