Cindy also asks her "Why didn't she ever go pick up the car, it doesn't make any sense?"
In her interview with police Cindy says,"I believe in the beginning Zanny was a real person, but now I think it just stands for whoever is watching Caylee that day, just as at one time there wasa boyfriend Jeff and now "Jeff" is short for whoever her boyfriend at the time is. So she knew AND ADMITTED SHE KNEW THERE IS NO NANNY WHO TOOKTHE BABY. SHE EVEN SAID "I THINK NANNY IS EITHER AMY OR JESSE".
AT THE MEMORIAL cINDY SAYS ON HER WAY HOME FROM WORK EACH DAY SHE WOULD CALL HOME AND CAYLEE WOULD TELL HER ALL ABOUT HER DAY.
In her August tirade jailhouse visit she actually says ,"I chose dad to be the one I want to meet with because Lee would come at me with a list of questions and mom has a tendency to dominate the conversation". George calling her gorgeous and telling her he loves he and calling her sweetie is all she wanted, no talk about Caylee! Did she ever, in any of those visits ask how the search was going?
That neighbor later told police he saw Casey come to the house with at least one man several times over the month her parents thought she was missing. There are pictures on the web of the lady with the garbage and you can see a lot of it is hate mail, but oone thing is VERY interesting, a little note written to George, "Dad call_______, I think the house is bugged!", so only Lee or Casey would have written it. If the house and the phones were bugged I am glad.
For every accused murderer there is a mother in the courtroom professing, "No. Not my son, he would not do this!" Every time, with very few exceptions.
In the bible it says "Spare the rod, spoil the child", translation: You must set limits and have a child be accountable, otherwise you set a child up for failure, to have no empathy or understanding of consequences. Casey is an extreme example, but a lot of parents make this mistake and raise entitled very childish kids who have an arrested emotional development (Scott Peterson). The interesting thing is that by all accounts Cindy was very strict with Casey, so it isn't as if she purosely created a monster. Lee seems to be a well grounded and responsible young man. I always find it interesting that every family has their Cane and Able, even though the kids are raised with the exact same parents and family values, so some of it she was just born with. Lee was being as honest as he could by admitting his approach with Casey, the end justifying the means if he wanted to eventually get the truth out of her he would take any bits of it she would offer or slip up to divulge so he could keep his promise to Caylee to learn what really happened. I think they all believe it was an accident and she got scared, feaked out and hid the body, watched a movie Tony rented from Blockbuster that day about a nanny taking a child and adopted that story at short notice.
It takes a lot more than she stays out late partying while we watch her daughter and she isn't working while she lives here with us and we provide for her and her daughter, she's an ungratefull little brat to take a child away legally, I know this because I have been a foster parent home for 20 years. The state reunites mothers with their children that have been arrested for selling drugs, prostitution, neglect, drug addiction.....you name it after a little jail or rehab or parenting classes the court orders. It is a very high hurdle to take away a child from a parent legally. Casey would get the bio dad to step forward and object to G&C getting custody of his child, just to spite them. I know everyone here means well, but you have a poor understanding of what they could do legally opposed to what we all wish could have been done. I am glad she was seeking help from a counselor and calling all her friends trying to get to the bottom of what was going on. Regardless, it is easy to throw stones but they have lost their beloved grandaughter, and that is the one fact that is undisputed, she was adored by them. Furthermore, George even says in his FBI interview he knows what physical things are going to happen to Casey when she goes to prison, how they treat people who do something to a child. So they have that heavy on their heart, not only that she may have done it and where did they go wrong but imagining her being beaten and raped and likely killed one day in prison. Can't everybody realize the pain they are in? I wouldn't wish it on anyone, it nearly drove George to end his life.

I agree, when I cleared out my father's things for my mom I balled my eyes out, but it was sweet loking back on his momentos from the war,the letters from buddies he stayed in contact with all of his life, his years as a Teamster, baseball player, his awards and watch he always kept of his fathers. With a small baby it is a loss of her future and all that you will miss, that is a completely level you to the floor pain! No wonder they lived in denial holding out hope she was alive.
In the police interview with Dominick Casey the detective asks him about a statement Cindy made the night that they were serving the search warrant, the night the remains were being taken to the ME office, she said "I had someone wal that area".
This reminds me of a hilarious old episode of the Cosby Show. Bill Cosby, the father ,is explaining by using Monopoly money, the cold hard facts of life and how expensive things are going to be for his son to maintain his lifesyle once he moves out. "Your mother and I are rich, we went to college, we worked hard to build our lives. Your mother and I are rich, you on the other hand are poor." When we were growing up it was understood that once we turned eighteen we would be moving out and getting a place of our own, however humble it may be, it would be ours. This may be a cultural thing but my husband's family have a revolving door policy, anything that goes on in one of the adults lives, a divorce a need to move, whatever, they show back up on their parents doorstep and move back in for various lengths of time. That would never even occur to me to do, so how you are raised really does dictate how you live ther rest of your life. Children Learn What They Live
The question is are some people born evil? What is the name of that guy whose family and he were Mormon, all of his brothers were Doctors and Professors and what the media called over achievers, he was lying to everyone that he was accepted to medical school, his entire life was a lie, everyday he pretended to study his medical text books at his job on his lunch break, he even made the pretence of a move to a new state with his wife, she found out and he killed her the night before they were to move? Is there such a thing as the bad seed in a family. All of the other kids grew up with the same standards and values as he......yet they are fine, good men and he was this? Scary. You see this happen a lot in multiples, one child seems lost and the others thrive or one is gay and one is not, so obviusly they were born hard wired differently.I am the most imperfect parent probably living on earth today. I lose my temper. I am continually making one or the other of my children "upset" with me. I ask too many questions. I worry too much. I am too lenient. I am impatient. I get tired and burned out sometimes. I yell more days than I don't. Sometimes the laundry piles up. Sometimes I don't cook a "regular" meal. Sometimes I don't do the dishes for more than 24 hours. Sometimes the house is messy. Sometimes the house is dirty. I let my children, especially the older ones, make, perhaps, too many of their own decisions. I do not make my children do much in the way of "chores". I am overburdened and underappreciated. Sometimes I escape into a book for hours on end ignoring everything and everyone. Sometimes, I leave for hours on end. Sometimes I get depressed. Sometimes I get anxious. Sometimes I am afraid that I am doing it all wrong and all of my children will be a mess when they go out on their own...
I would die for any one of them, but if they killed their child, I would not lie for them and they know this.
None of us is a perfect parent, even those who believe they are.I don't think any of us who discuss Cindy's and George's shortcomings are saying that we are perfect. We are simply attempting to dissect what developed into a HORRIBLE situation. How did it happen? What events lead up to it? Was there anything that could have been done differently? Perhaps if we can determine what happened, what were the the ethics, the morals, the system of parenting that were in place then perhaps we can determine how to see something like this coming in our own lives or in the lives of someone close to us, or we can become better by improving on some of our own inadequacies which we share with the Anthony's. When it seems there is an "attack" on the Anthony's parenting style, it is just a desperate attempt to make sense out of a desperate situation and a hope that such a thing, if discovered and uncovered, can help us all be better than we were before we knew.
But when they tell those lies now, that is another story entirely!:crazy:
