this interview has ALWAYS bothered me! George - the master of minute details - is so noticeably vague when it comes to his description of their goodbyes. IMO, if he had interacted with an awake/ alive Caylee, we would have repeatedly heard specific details of that convo, rather than an ambiguous "typical hugs and kisses" statement. If this was truly his final convo with his granddaughter, I can't help but believe he would have clung to those words for all eternity. We would have heard some sort of tearful "and then she said 'bye-bye Jo-Jo' and gave me a kiss" statement every time Geroge had the chance to open his mouth. This picture would have been drilled into our heads over and over and over... especially during the "help! the evil kidnappers took our daughter" stage of events.
IMO, Casey inherited that lying gene from Cindy. George sucks at lying - every time he tries to do it he sounds dodgy and vague (or ridiculously forced / coached by his wife). Who gives details about sunglasses but not about human interaction?
I am not sure how I feel about Casey possibly walking by with a dead Caylee. Again, with where ol' Georgie was sitting on the couch, they would have had to practically step over him. So i'm back and forth with that whole theory. But, I do believe with all my heart that there is no way he interacted with any sort of awake little girl that day...
Hello WS
(Snip Respect)
I snipped this because this all fits into a theory I have right now re: George's story on GVS(as is referenced by what I snipped) about seeing Casey/Caylee June16th and everything was "normal."

Statement to LE

GA: But a lot of times they've gotten into it is because of Casey not being where she's supposed to have been. The lying about working, me wanting to be Mr. Detective again. I know you guys brought up about Sports Authority(inaudible).
LE: Yeah
GA: I went out to Sports Authority and I, i think I told you guys, I actually went inside and confronted the manager.
LE: That's not necessarily being a detective that's being a dad.
LE: Uh-Huh
LE: Well, you know(inaudible).
GA: And, and I(inaudible)and this, well and I even asked this Ryan, god, what's Ryan's last name/ Hasting? Yeah, I asked Ryan, I said, Ryan, did you work with Casey? "No, she doesn't work here." I said, well then how in the hell did she make...oh, did we tell you about a report supposedly that she was at gun point...

Statement to LE
September5th, 2008
RG: ...and then he just kind of blurted out about the whole job thing. He said you know we, I knew she didn't have any of these jobs. Said she, when she told us she worked at the Sports Authority I went there one day and they told me she'd never been there, and I've discovered most of the jobs she's told us she had, she never had. Which of course I made a note of, that means you knew, she wasn't workin' so, if she has a nanny, who's paying for her?
This tells me quite clear that George was lying about the fact that he thought Casey was on her way to work(with Caylee being dropped off?)and Casey saying she would work late so she would see him the next day. By his statement to LE and then his statement to RG: he tells us he knew she was lying about "most of the jobs she's told us she had" he tells us "she never had them." So, I have to conclude he did not think she was going to work on the 16th.
I have always found Cindy's statement about "hearing them breathe through the door" the morning of June16th odd.
That Cindy and George tried to distance themselves from "Father's Day" June15th as the last day they saw Caylee and as a part of proving the 15th was not the last day...they make the big deal about "between 12 and 1 while George was watching TV he saw them "hugs and kisses normal" I think is pointing to what George and Cindy think happend to Caylee more than what actually happened.
I think George and Cindy think Caylee drown in the pool late June15th or early(before each got home from work that day)June16th. I think this is what Casey wanted them to think...
Whether this happened or not this is what Cindy/George think: after all the tension of the month of June(Cindy's bday, vacation, etc.) Cindy has Caylee on the 15th when she visits her father at his nursing home. Casey goes to Tony's apartment but is home in time to see Cindy and Caylee swimming but does not join in because "it was too cold." Whether(am I spelling that right?) or not there was a "big fight" between Cindy and Casey on June15th I think it is safe to say there is truth to the love/hate relationship between mother and daughter that Caylee was the center of(through no fault of her sweet own)there is that mistrust between mother and daughter. So when Cindy started putting things together: she waited till after three 911 calls to LE because LE states in George's statement on July24, 2008 that Cindy left him a voice mail while he was away with Casey being led on the goose chase at Universal that was letting him know about the gate to the pool being left open and the ladder having been left up on the pool. George confirms this:
GA: ...my wife and I were brainstorming uh, all(inaudible) to our insight and I said, there's got to be more to this mess. She said, "George, do you remember that day I found the ladder down and also the gate?" I says, yeah.
The subject of the gate/ladder/pool is brought up during a long part of this statement where I believe LE is focused on the idea of the pool and the exact date they noticed the gate is a big part of the questioning but this questioning follows more of what day was "gas can day" and "day George saw Casey and they had a car chase." As George and LE speak about June 24, and up until the 27th they decide(as best they can) that this was all around the time of the "gas cans" and "the break in of the shed" and "the gate/ladder/pool.(See WS amazing Timeline Calandar: I do believe they have these dates worked out).
So, Cindy sees that if Caylee is found and it is fact that she did drown then it is Cindy's pool...and then Cindy realizes that the last time she really DID see Caylee was the night of June 15th and they had been swimming...and if George and Cindy woke up June16th and went to work-maybe saw Caylee alive in the morning...but they figure Casey stayed home(they know she had no job)and Caylee drown then(by some accident or negligence of Casey's they figure Casey was all involved on the computer too just as some WSers have theorized and it was an accident...
Then Cindy says...but, Casey would have had to put the ladder up/open the gate because maybe they were going to swim...then got distracted? Even Cindy may sense the "spite" behind this action...Casey would know not to leave it up...so why would she?...to pin Caylee's death on Cindy. Cindy started thinking.
Now that I type this out I think my theory has big issues but I feel there is something I may be expressing here so I am going to continue...
It may not be totally logical but I do not think Cindy and Casey are logical. I do think there was a war between them and it was inflamed by the presence of Caylee. I think Cindy realized she had better support the idea of a "nanny" to throw heat off of herself. Then when she got caught lying the same lie Casey was telling "Zanny at SGA" she was stopped by the depo so now she just goes with "I haven't had a chance to speak to my daughter about this", "someone else did this: take your pick as of late" and a few others I think I am forgetting right now but any story is better than what she thinks happened:
Caylee drown in her pool, at her house, a day after she was swimming with Caylee.
And, above I said it didn't matter if they had the "big fight" on the 15th...but if that is true and you add that in: Cindy sees reason for why Caylee died at her house in her pool and is/was afraid everyone else would also.
Okay. This theory has been running around in my head for a while and I didn't know if I was going to post but tonight on NG(Hello Friend!)JG was being interviewed and he said that LP told him that Cindy, Casey and George were discussing with JB how they were saying Jesse let Caylee drown! Now, I do not understand where they would be coming up with that...and I have not gotten to JG interview yet...
but I felt that Cindy being a part of a plot to place blame on another and to say that he "drown" Caylee fit too well into my sketchy theory...
I also would like to add a quote from a book that I think(for me)describes the "mother energy" that is carried in a family like the Anthony's. I know this mother: I have yet to meet a mother that is not this mother...sad for me...and because of this mother I have fear of being a mother myself...she is the...
