I would like to see her charged with perjury, but I don't think she needs the 15 year sentence to understand what she did. By not charging her, it does let people know that lying under oath is okay if there the person giving testimony is conflicted. In my opinion, the family wasted too much of the investigator's time by interfering with the investigation. Time was wasted this past week with investigators having to track down work history and put another couple of people on the stand. Not only was the brush incident an attempt to withhold evidence, but Cindy did not tell investigator's about the missing Winnie the Pooh blanket and laundry bag until after Caylee was found ... and the only reason she provided that information was because she was about to be questioned about it. I'm looking forward to hearing what the Judge will do with Baez for wasting time too.
Well, all I can say is that IF it were considered ok to lie like CA has lied for KC, there wouldn't be a law against it. We cannot pick and choose which laws we want to abide. We must adhere to them all. Those who do not follow the laws should face the appropriate punishment. It really is just that simple.

It does to me! It proves that Cindy was at work at the Gentiva offices, even though she could have left the office- she didn't and she wasn't the one to do the Chloroform searches, in fact Cindy never searched for Chlorophyll!the state impeached her testimony with rebuttal witnesses - hardly the same as they "proved" she lied, no?
Cindy's actions have never been in the best interest of Casey. LE told George and Cindy if Cindy did not STOP what she was doing it was going to be bad for Casey, you know the daughter she loves so much...and it was going to make it so Caylee would never be found. Let me repeat that, LE told Cindy Anthony and George Anthony that if CINDY continued behaving in the manner that she had been that it was going to cause TERRIBLE consequences and she did not stop.
It is being said that those who feel what Cindy has done is wrong, the lying is just the icing on the cake- are being "cruel" or do not have sympathy-so to me it is a case of blaming the messenger. :twocents:
If JP agrees,why did he fight so hard to get the death penalty for Judith Beunanao when he prosecuted her? She poisened her husband. JP attended her execution by the electric chair.
BBM. I don't see why not- Scott Peterson's parents also lost a grandchild at his own hands, and he still got the Death Sentence...I meant the part about not prosecuting the parents in regards to JP.
I also do not think that JP will impose the DP because of the parents. The quoted case refers to a vile multiple murder convict including a disabled son if I recall correctly.

Cindy also provided several items to the DT,while trying to THWART the State. JB finally turned them over to the state after Caylee was found .

Chiquita, I would never speak to you as if you were a child. I have no reason to do so.
I don't think the Anthonys are perfect, by any means. But they have lost their beloved grandchild and their only daughter is facing the death penalty.
Certainly, perjury is wrong. But I don't think you can prove it in this case and even if you could, I don't think we need to clog our justice system prosecuting grieving parents who at worst are trying to save their child.
Pointing out that CA probably lied about the searches? Fine. Putting her in prison for trying to keep the needle out of her daughter's arm? Too much.
As I've already said. The jurors will figure out what CA did.
What Cindy did wrong (besides pre-trial) was to lie under oath. That is Not acceptable under any circumstance! Even when one admits her and George's testimony were of no help... The thing Cindy can do for Casey is to plead for her life at sentencing, not try to deny that Casey is guilty of murdering her granddaughter!And that is the DT's obligation. So what did CA do wrong here?
The State is trying to kill her daughter. I don't think that can be stressed too often.
Actually, the state proved CA made an error in remembering events from three years ago. (Do you have perfect recall of 2008? I don't.)
Proving CA lied is another step and not an easy one to prove.
And that is the DT's obligation. So what did CA do wrong here?
