[SeriouslySearching]

This is a pic of my youngest at 3 1/2 in her most favorite princess attire--she is convinced she is Sleeping Beauty and says that when she gets older she is going to work at Disney World as Princess Aurora because by then " the one they have now will be really old"

She is 3 1/2 and this is a size 6 dress--I have it on my kitchen table right now because I wanted to check the size and can photograph it if anyone wants

If the dress they are talking about is a costume type dress I see it as very possible it could be Caylees

I guess it is hard to argue with photos and proof! (Btw~ She is beautiful!)

If the group that found it isn't formally a S&R group, Tim can't really hold them to that standard, IMO. Still, it doesn't explain why exactly he stated on NG tonight that the searcher was a TES one. And that is what he confirmed -I just watched it again to make sure.

Weird.

Maybe it was a TES member who had participated in the first search and then joined another search team and therefore should have known better than to leak the info.

OK, my head blew off with all this stuff so im going to pick up the pieces and go to bed, need lots of sleep for OUR BIG DAY TOMORROW

And according to Tim it was in good shape. Come on, people...it's been 4 months in a swamp (supposedly).

Good shape would not necessarily mean not dirty or not stained, but not torn to shreds. He seemed to be "mincing his words" carefully the last few interviews.

"A search group that is not affiliated with Texas EquuSearch made the find. The email went on to describe the item and the fact that the individual had an "exclusive" photo of the dress."


"I am not going to identify the name of the organization involved, as they should not be judged by the actions of a single person; however, I will say that Tim told me that there are suspicions regarding the origin of that dress and how it ended up in the swamp."

Interesting blog report. I can see very well why Tim would be upset with un-proven information being leaked. But I don;t think it has anything to do with any "official" search protocal, just COMMON SENSE! caps for emphasis! I think it was stupid to release this for sure, at this point in time.

My granddaughter is 2 1/2 and she is 36" tall, weighs 30 lbs. Both of her parents and all her grandparents are on the short side. I can't believe she's going to be 6' when she grows up. She has a disney dress with winnie the pooh on it, size 4 and it does not fit. She needs at least a 5 or 6 to fit.

I think the poster was wrong. A lot of 3-yr olds are 36 in. tall... and they are not all going to be 6 ft. tall when they're grown. I read somewhere that Caylee was tall for her age.

 

[GirlinCentralFL]

An obsessed searcher?

Yea one who wants thier 15 mins of fame. This case just gets weirder and weirder and sad if it was planted.

 

[SeriouslySearching]

Well...what are the odds that a child's dress is found in the brush near the airport in the midst of the ping area where they are searching for Caylee?! Either one of two things...it is Caylee's or it was planted there.

They would not be bound by the prior agreement. I don't see what the big deal is here. According to the link they have "exclusive" photo rights, so they are most likely thinking BIG MONEY.

 

[Brini]

I totally agree with Leonard about Casey trying to make it LOOK like an accident and put a dead caylee in the pool......

But, a dead Caylee would not have inhaled any water. So, she couldn't have died by drowning.

 

[robotdog]

the reason it could have been planted is because the body might be 1 hour in the opposite direction

but the searchers will stay in the area where the dress was found

David Lohr can be trusted 100% he has been around a long time and he is not bias - he would not spew lies.

Yes I agree with this and he is totally ethical. He knows who the person is but he is not giving out the name.
I respect him as one of the best investigative blogs on the internet. I find what he says to be true and researched completely before he reports it.

 

[Truthwillsetufree]

TM said they sent dress and other items to be tested.

I am wondering if these other items are panties, socks and little shoes.

 

[sunsetbeach]

Maybe when TM said it was a Mickey dress what he really meant was Disney.

 

[Law_girl41]

From many images, I've seen Caylee with at least 3 Disney Dress up Costumes on, one blue one, one yellow one and also PJ & A swimsuit from 2nd birthday images. I think at that age she was into the disney quite a lot and that its hard to say about what type of dress it was in a size 6. But as far as Mickey Mouse, theres not a lot of Mickey Mouse dress styles out there with that tag on it. If it was in good shape, that just too odd for me to wrap my mind around it.

She must have been tall because it says she weighs 45 lbs. and she does not look fat. My 5 year old neighbor only weighs 42 lbs and he is well proportioned.

I think that is what he meant - Men don't know the difference.

I am thinking the same way. I don't know if this dress is even related, but I immediately thought of when Chandra Levy's clothes were found after she had been missing a year. Her body was skeletal, but her clothing (which had been in the elements for 4 seasons) was recognizable.

I hope we learn more about this dress soon!

Good point..................I believe they have something from before and the dress is really not that important, UNLESS they found it before too.

Maybe. Once TES pulls out of an area, IMO I don't think they have much to stand on if someone and his/her buddies go looking on their own when he hadn't set a definitive date to come back.

TES and TM are terrific people - however I did note all the statements over the last several days how much money had been invested in the search for Caylee and that TES was out of funds. TM was also quoted as saying that by several Orlando news stations. I think TM would stay if he had funding, but he doesn't yet. Facts are facts: it takes some $$$ to do this stuff and TES operates on donations.
