Questions For Websleuthers Part 4

[SeriouslySearching]

HI, SS-
My memory is a little vague, and I had a tiny thought that it might not be a child hanging. Thanks.
I don't understand your last sentence- what is the DP?

Sorry! The death penalty. It is interesting that Casey was against it way back when tho, isn't it?! I think this is why it will be brought up at her trial possibly, imo.

 

[elsietatou]

BTW: Has anyone tried the same word searches Casey used, many of which were performed on Wikipedia? When I tried these searches they turned up very little of interest.
There were no entries at all for ‘neck breaking’ or ‘household weapons’, and what could one possibly expect to benefit from searching the word ‘shovel’, (‘shovel’ search results aren’t likely to return directions on how to use one as a murder weapon or techniques for digging shallow graves)??? It’s bizarre that these strange choice of search words/terms, entered in May, would eventually reappear and feature heavily in some of the most crucial details of the case. The terms ‘shovel’ and ‘chloroform’ for example.
Cant be a coincidence can it??

What happened to the second autopsy?

The remains of Caylee Anthony, which were discovered last week in a wooded area near her grandparents' home, have been released by the medical examiner's office to a funeral home, Local 6 News reported.

The child's remains were sent to the Robert Bryant Funeral & Cremation Chapel in Orlando after documents were signed by the girl's mother, Casey Anthony, Local 6 News reported.

From what I gathered today, it has yet to be done...but will be. Yes, the remains were brought to a funeral home, but I assume they will be taken to another lab for the 2nd autopsy.

I've wondered about this as well. Seems too much of a coincidence. But where these single word searches or words within a longer phrase, were only these few words searched or were they among dozens of others that were seemingly non-connected?? ..... we don't know at this time. If we did it might make more sense.

It just seems odd with the defense arguing that 'time is of the essence' and all. Par for the course in this case though! :crazy: TY!

Not a pleasant topic to discuss, but LE indicated during a press release that only threes inches of bone was required/retained for autopsy/analysis purposes, assumably because of the otherwise skeletal condition of the remains. So maybe the body has already been passed to the funeral home by the defense, the autopsy being conducted later in the same manner.

That makes sense and explains the need for the xrays asap etc. But that is a far cry from examining the remains themselves as far as the defense experts go. What? now they don't need to examine all the remains? What would change from needing to be johnny on the spot to just needing the xrays?

Possibly it was all smoke and mirrors to ramp up the public sentiment? Taint the jury pool? Make it sound like the big bad state won't grant them access to the scene or the remains?

All those reasons make sense. This is twice they've put up a fuss and when the opportunity comes they seem not to care. IMO the defense already knows they can't refute evidence connecting KC to the body. The defense strategy will be something along the lines of KC having a mental breakdown/no memory/blame parents for abuse, etc,etc.

 

[chicoliving]

The defense has to open with something but of course what's said in opening statements is not testimony so it doesn't have to hold water. At the end of the day all they can do is try to punch holes in the state's case.

The mental stuff would best be saved for mitigating circumstances in the penalty phase. The invis nanny the invis job etc. I don't see how they can argue any kind of mental anything. Looks like someone's gonna have to go under the bus.

I work as a librarian and have studied the internet search habits of many different types of people, believe me, I have seen stranger things. Many times people just type in the first thing that comes to mind, whether or not it will actually return relevant data ,get frustrated right away with it..and move on. How sad to me that these types of thoughts just came and went randomly throughout her day...*shudders*

I have heard theories that she searched the chloroform in reference to something she saw on a Myspace page and was spooked by it..I think quite the opposite, that she saw it and it struck a chord with her as something she hadn't thought of before as a way to kill/subdue someone....a topic that she had thought about many times before. IMHO.

I'm sure I read something yesterday that suggested this may not go to trial until March 2010. Maybe true or not. If so, that's a long time to prepare.

I have no idea what holes they can punch, but either they already know or they're still looking. Only one person I can think that could be implicated, other than the parents, is Tony whats-his-name who was fired by the LE in the later part of August for lying twice about his relationship with Casey. Those text messages are plain creepy, given they didn't know each other for long. I would really like to know he was NOT involved in any way with the mid-August investigation following the meter-reader reports of a possible discovery of the body.

Just my thoughts....

 

[chicoliving]

Oh yes, I've thought that too. Wouldn't be that much of a twist for this case. I don't really think so though, not now that the Aug 911 calls have been released and the firming up of what the deputies did or didn't do. It was one of my first thoughts though when we first heard a deputy responded but didn't find anything. She sure got around.

I think it will be delay after delay with the defense whining about the state not turning over discovery in a timely manner. I hope it goes forward in March 09 or soon after. I think the state has a strong case that just got that much stronger with Caylee being found. The defense has deflated but they don't know that yet. Oh yeah, we only know half the story cause they haven't figured out the other half yet! lol

 

[nostoneunturned]

Did Casey have insurance on Caylee?????

 

[mayfairlight]

Hi!
I hope this is the right place to ask, I read it before but forgot...

What was the picturebook Caylee was reading called?


(ETA: found it, "Suppertime for Frieda Fuzzy Paws")

 

[JaneInOz]

Do the Anthonys (at any time) read WS ?

 

[MADJGNLAW]

I know this is not the right place to reply, but I could not find the thread about the Christmas Day Vigil that Padilla and Grund had planned. I was trying to find out if they still were going to have it at Blanchard Park, this was planned right before the remains were found by the meter reader. Anyone know if they still Plan this Vigil?

 

[nostoneunturned]

If Casey was planning this for sometime then she would have taken out life insurance on Caylee. Maybe it was just dollar signs she saw when she looked in Caylee's eyes!! Upon Caylee's death was there a policy set up by George(bank account life insurance) Cindy or Casey. The one thing she needed most was money. If she premeditated this murder I see her setting something up.Come on web sleuths , this just bugs me " premeditated insurance purchase" Was Caylee insured?? please answer if you knows .
Greed could be the answer that makes all this bs make sense!

 

[Pattymarie]

I came to the case late...so I don't remember reading about WHY Casey abandoned her car. Did it run out of gas in the parking lot?? And what did she do afterward? Who did she call? Did anyone pick her up? If so, did that person notice the odor? Or did she walk? How far from her home was the car abandoned? And why would she leave her purse in the car? And was the car seat still in the car?
Thanks in advance...

 

[treeseeker]

My opinion, if there was insurance we'd have seen evidence of some sort in one of the document dumps. It would be considered motive.

A home "accident" could also have been, er, profitable, as Casey could have sued her parents' home-owner insurance.
