Should Jesse Grund File A Civil Suit Against Casey Anthony????

[cecybeans]

Heck, poor lil Jesse could be old and gray and using a walker before they could get anyone in that family to testify in a civil suit. It took almost a year for Morgan to get them to talk and they either refused to answer questions or said things that were contradicted by previous statements made on tape.

KC didn't have to directly implicate JG in anything - all she had to do was look dramatic in jail when her parents asked if they should contact him and she said - no way, she didn't trust him at all. She constantly repeated to AD, Tracey and others that JG had keys to her car, etc. That's all she needed to do - give hints and her family took those clues and started the campaign.

I'll tell you what - the Anthony family should be grateful for the months that KC and Caylee spent at the Grunds. They not only supported her and her baby, but I'll bet CA and GA had a lot more money in their wallets when she wasnt' around.

Seeing as how Casey and the entire team Anthony has implicated him and pointed the finger in his direction I think he should sue the whole lot of 'em, including Jose and co. for attemtping to smear him in the process of clearing their client. With NO evidence to indicate he had anything to do with any of it, they threw him under the bus at every turn. He probably won't sue them, but if he did I would certainly applaud that action. He has probably had more scrutiny of his life through all of this than any other player and has been harmed more than anyone else, so he is certainly entitled if he should choose to go that route.

Amen! The fact that all those pages of investigative discovery went out to the public in a doc dump were inexcusable.

The fact someone thought they had to even do that level of investigation on him to eliminate him as a suspect (and I'm sure it was at the urging of the Anthony family) is sad - and luckily (so far) nobody else who knew KC well has had to live with their personnel files, training grades, and all kinds of other generally private info splashed all over the internet due to Sunshine Laws.

This empty, narcissistic excuse of a woman has created concentric circles of collateral damage that just never seem to end. Apparently the Anthonys think that putting the spotlight on others will somehow take it off themselves when they are really the only ones in this entire charade that have truly behaved badly.

I'll bet JG could use the money from a civil suit for the therapy he's gonna need for quite a few years...

I think Jesse has a good chance of winning a civil suit against Casey. What do you think?

I think he would have to get in line and I also don't think he has the heart for it.

I have often wondered if he searched his memory if KC could have spotted ZG's car at Sawgrass and asked JG to check out the plate and that's how she got her name. That's not that uncommon and he may have forgotten about it. Or it could have been any one of KC's cop boyfriends.

 

[chefmom]

Wow! I have such mixed emotions about this question. I voted not sure. On the one hand, I would say yes because they did throw him under the bus from the get-go with their talk of JG had a key to the car and ZFG could be code for JG. There WILL be money made off of this little girls murder via interviews, movie and book deals, and I would prefer that ANYBODY EXCEPT a member of the A family were the one to benefit from that money. On the other hand, I can't imagine that JG would ever think of wanting to profit from this misfortune, and as has been stated previously, anyone who has followed this case for even the shortest period of time knows exactly who murdered little Caylee, knows exactly how reprehensible the A clan has acted, knows exactly how badly the innocent friends of this family have been maligned. Whatever JG might choose to do, I would support and understand his position.

Ditto. Right now, I'm on the fence too. :waitasec:

 

[Kentjbkent]

I would certainly support Jesse with whatever decision he considered after everything he has been through, but I think standing on principal at this point has way too high of a personal cost for him.

It appears that general public consensus is sympathetic towards him, and I don't think I have read anything in the media that suggests ANYONE believes CA's accusations.

Don't get me wrong, not suggesting that he HASN'T been defamed, just that I think public sympathy and support is in his favor and at his young age, he can move ahead without anyone questioning whether or not he really had a THING to do with Caylee's demise.

And yet his father tells us that Jesse is unable to even find employment due to all of this publicity that he has received...???

 

[Cowboy Fan]

I voted no simply because he and his family seem like such nice people and if I were Jesse, I would want to distance myself as far as possible from all of the Anthonys. I've not heard from anyone, other than the Anthonys, that they think he was in any way involved in Caylee's death. Filing a lawsuit is not going to remove any traces of his name being mentioned by the Antonys and there is nothing to be monetarily gained from suing Casey. ..she has nothing. And I doubt that George and Cindy will have much left after the trial.

 

[grinchmaiden]

I voted no just because I feel the G's should stay clear of them all. The high road being what it is, may also keep him off the path that has the bus roaring down it.

 

[Curious Me]

I voted Yes because I believe a terrible injustice has been done to JG by the Anthony family. Rightfully, he could take this to court.

Then, I read JBean and many others giving reason why JG shouldn't decide to take this even further. Now, my vote has to stand as a yes, even tho' I think JG would be better to not get more engulfed with the Anthonys.

A Bad Karma and the Universe and "Let Go, Let God" philosophy seems to be the best stance in this situation.

 

[cyberborg]

No.

Given the way the A's and entourage operate, why get dragged through that even if you were to win? The price of the journey with a troupe like the A's is not worth any win. Tainted.

Better to maintain the higher ground and rise above the fray, it is far more powerful oft times to say nothing / do nothing than get embroiled.

Not worth it. Ignore them and move on.

Ya know, I don't doubt that! There has been SO much publicity with this case that I'm sure many businesses would rather not have the unwanted attention that hiring JG would bring right now. So sad! I hope that, when KC's trial is over, that Karma will come around and slap CA & GA right in the face! I'd love to see charges brought against them! And I would certainly love a nice "class action" type lawsuit that involved each and every person that either CA or GA had lied about, or hinted at the improprieties of, or had wronged in any way! I realize they have no money, but just the stress and worry and not knowing would be a nice start. (I know that sounds mean, but so are they!)

I think what they did to JG was and is despicable. However, I believe he will be completely vindicated when Casey gets convicted. Therefore, there is no need to file a civil suit. Casey's conviction will accomplish the most important thing - justice for Caylee. It's all about Caylee and not JG. As much as some of us would like the A's to get their just desserts (myself included) there is no question that that will happen when she gets convicted.

I agree that it will be a blow to them when KC gets convicted, but I think a big part of the blow, especially for CA, will be that she was unsuccessful in covering for KC this time. In the beginning, GA seemed like he was accepting of the fact that KC was guilty of something and was doing what he needed to help for the sake of Caylee. Then, interviews were released and CA heard how he wasn't "backing the bull" that KC and herself was spreading, and she took him to task. I would imagine that she challenged his manhood and his ability to be a proper husband and father, demeaning him in these areas, until he felt the only way he could show love and loyalty was to get in step and perpetuate and fabricate right along with KC and CA. IF, and this is a mighty big if, IF GA were to take the stand and be as honest as he were in the very beginning, he could, maybe, redeem himself somewhat. No matter what he does, I think his conscience is going to eat him alive until he draws his last breath. CA, not so much. Even if KC said she did it, CA would continue to point the finger elsewhere and shift blame as to why KC did it, and you can bet your bottom dollar it won't be KC or CA who are at fault! She will never find fault, or admit to it, in either her children or herself. She is incapable of it. KC did not become the mess that she is simply by happenstance. She learned at the knee of the master.

 

[Firefly]

Honestly!!! RUN AWAY and get as far away from this mess as possible. Why on earth would someone want to prolong their anguish, job loss, loss of friends....omg, loss of privacy to try to recoup it all by suing Casey? Money will never fix this mess Yikes, it doesn't make sense. It will be one of those cases of "we will never know everything." Walk away and let TIME bury this whole tragedy and take this ache out of our hearts so we can focus soley on the smiles of Caylee w/o giving any attention to her surrounding villains. In time, Casey and the A's will have no voice. Jail will fix that.

 

[coco puff]

I hate to say this, but it depends on if she is found guilty. I can't even stand the thought but what if OJ, I mean KC, walks? Then, I'd say every player in this whole nightmare should litigate against the A's. Maybe just spite on my part.

Hello WS

With the new info that the defense must "put up or shut up" as a WSers so perfectly put: and they bring out other people's names...

What will these people do? If they are going to try and pin this on Jesse or TL, or anyone else, what will these people be able to do about it? Do they just have to wait for this trial(that may/probably) will take years to be done? While their name is put into this horrible case?

I did not know our legal system worked like this: that people involved in a case(ie: the Anthony's, JB) can just willy nilly name people as suspects!

If what is given by the defense as discovery names these people, is that taken as fact until it goes to court? I am very confused.

The defense has said that someone else killed/dumped Caylee, other than Casey: they say Casey is innocent. If the defense has an idea of who this is...I mean, I thought it was "Zanny" who took her? Are they going to say(whoever they say it is)was/is "Zanny" even if it is JG? Or TL?

...jmo...

I would think the statute of limitations has run out...

 

[txsvicki]

What are the limitations and time length that Jesse could file a civil suit now that it is proven that Casey knew Caylee was dead there at the home? Jesse was just on Dr. Drew talking about how the attempt to set him up for murder went on for the whole 3 years with accusations from Casey and Cindy backing her up. I think he should be very careful, because things in this whole case end up getting turned around against other people. Casey's story is that George found Caylee dead in the pool but no explanations. They could all still claim in some movie or book that 'someone else did it'. He's still talking about Cindy and how she might have caused Casey low self esteem. He still seems very naive about Casey just because she hadn't started partying yet in their relationship and he excuses away her chameleon traits.
