The truth will set you free - oops not in this cas
I strongly disagree.
Allen: So wait a minute. So, you're more afraid of your mom's reaction then you are if you ever see your daughter?
Casey: No I'm absolutely petrified. Absolutely petrified. I know my mom will never forgive me. I'm never gonna forgive myself because there's that chance that I might not see Caylee again and I don't want to think about that.
Now...to me...she is saying she is PETRIFIED of her mother's reaction. She is ANSWERING his question IN CONTEXT as it was asked.
I think she is petrified of what she is going through right now and answering how she feels about being caught. If you listen to the whole tape, she says "she is running out of options", and that was right after LE caught her in her lies about Universal and the old folks home. They are focusing on her lies and putting the spotlight on them and her, then she says she is running out of options.
