2008.07.24 George Anthony Interview

[kiki the parrot]

The funny thing is that when you read Amy H's new interview she said that KC was blaming GA for all of the marital troubles. Somebody said this earlier, and I think it is 100% true, that GA had KC pegged at every corner, and KC's only response was to try and make her father out to be some terrible man. Very sad.

This is the epitome of narcissism. They're masters at manipulation and control especially enlisting the sympathies of others. It matters not who must be dogged out or thrown under the bus so long as they come out on top. No really. JMO

I agree, but I found this sad as well. I think Cindy is deeply disturbed and needs some serious professional help for dealing with this trauma. George too, but Cindy more so, as it seems that her denial is further putting a strain on this family and their chances for any kind of recovery/progress.

There was reference to something Cindy did during the hearing...don't know exactly...seems that there are missing "thoughts" here. Could it be the statement "there is no evidence"?

 

[Celt1997]

Yes but remember in the end it's what GA has been, and will be, willing to say under sworn oath that matters. The rest is showboating, more for CA's sake than the public. Kind of like KC, who would rather face the full force of FL than take on her mom. What kind of hold does this woman have over those around her? IMO that is fear, not love.

Bolded by me.

That statement is a bombshell in of itself! While KC is absolutely, 100% responsible for what she did to Caylee, I think there are some startling revelations in all of this about CA, and the blood that may be left on her hands when all is said and done! In the end KC may just be willing to go the distance and take the DP rather than let CA get the upper hand...it's almost as if this is the only way KC feels she can get any sort of control back in her life. When you break this all down into the individual dynamics of the various personalities, the case becomes very sad, indeed.

Another possibility is that if she WAS in the drug scene and perhaps acting as a "delivery girl" then perhaps she "delivered" to Baez sometimes? Speculating only, but there has to be some reason why he is keeping on it? Of course since THAT interview, it is highly possible that with some of the monies coming in from interviews, etc that they, the A's, have compensated him monetarily...I am learning that NOTHING is unreasonable as far as THIS case is concerned.

Something is definately not right with that atty/client relationship. They seemed to have gotten awfully close for someone who he just met in July. All those hugs and being so comfortable with her that she can spend up to 6 hours a day in his office. Seems like they knew each other before. Plus, I believe it's against the Bar Association rules to "ambulance chase". Did GA say that Baez called them? Isn't that unethical? The client is supposed to approach you.

 

[SeriouslySearching]

This says a lot. At least, GA questioned it once or twice.:

GA: And then my wife says, "I think he's working in Casey's best interest." I said, "Where is Caylee in all this stuff?"

 

[Intermezzo]

I can't imagine what this man is going through. His inner turmoil must be overwhelming. What a sad, sad interview.

I agree. I am still crying:cry: . He knows, down deep he knows..
He's been silenced by Cindy:silenced:

 

[Pondering Mind]

He'd be a lot less tormented IF he stopped being part of the club who think it's somehow helpful to KEEP enabling Casey.

When it's all said & done, it will become obvious that pretending to believe Casey's & bull tales did NOTHING to help her anyway.

IMO, anyone who enables Casey is a BIG, BIG part of the problem.

I agree, but from what I gathered from that interview and the reason that he and Cindy split was the fact that he was tired of the enabling and didn't believe Casey's & bull stories. Maybe, just maybe in private and with LE, he is not enabling Casey, but focusing on Caylee instead.

ITA, CA keeps the fridge well stocked with the KC Koolaid Im sure

 

[RR0004]

I think he's deferring his fee because he sees fame and fortune in his future for being a part of this case.

Unfortunately, I'm getting the sense there have been many in this case who have done wrong...seriously taking advantage of the situation at the expense of Caylee. Cindy doesn't seem to see this...but George does. Question- where does TL fit in all this? George seems mighty ticked off. I haven't read the whole interview. Does he spell it out? Why is he so angry at this person?

This is slightly O/T but I don't know where else to put it. Did anyone catch in the child neglect investigation on page 2224 "The parent, caregiver, or household member has a criminal history (regardless of disposition) or engages in dangerous criminal activities that may impact child safety and/or presents a potential threat of harm to the child (eg. drug manufacture or distribution, trafficking and/or sell of illegal drugs or weapons, prostitution) " This box is marked yes !?!

He also knows right from wrong. I agree he seems to be very much in love with Cindy, and IMO were he to step up he stands a very good chance of losing her forever. These are the cards fate has dealt him, and as sorry as I might be he is in this position, he still has to make a choice, no matter how hard it is.

This is fear, not love. As I said, it would be FAR healthier to have broken ranks w CA--which might even help HER to face reality--than to continue sacrificing the truth. I wish people could see this isn't simply "fate," when we've taken the easy way out and failed to take a stand for so many years. We can only sow weakness or passiveness--ie avoid reality, avoid consequences, cowtow, walk on eggshells or defer and demur--for so long before we begin to see the fruit of that. JMO

 

[curiositycat]

I have been saying from day one that KC knew JB BEFORE this happened. I truly believe that there is even more reason TODAY then ever before to believe that.
I based this belief, at first, by the initial body language that I observed between KC and JB the first time she was in court and on TV. The smile that passed between them was not the smile of people who had just met. It was, IMHO, the smile you see between one friend and another when they are happy to see each other again. MOO
As the case has gone on the body language between them has seemed the same. Other people including the people at the jail noticed it.
People need to look at this closely because, IMHO, the basis of the whole situation can be figured out by it.
Nuff' said....for now.

That seems probable. Honestly, hearing YM's concern about Cindy, the lies and mistruths she has propogated both to the media and what I gathered was at trial as well, was not unexpected. The concern that his wife was impeding the investigation as well as attempting to divert all attention from their daughter by smearing all others involved seems to really bear upon George, I think he is feeling responsible for the behavior of all family members at this point but has no ability to influence or guide their actions. Very sad.

It says "has a criminal history OR..." and may simply refer to the multitude of coinciding check fraud/forgery charges. Just guessing. JMO

ITA, SS! It appears that at LEAST George was questioning things, where Cindy is ...well, I don't know what the he!! Cindy is doing, besides drinking the kool aid.

 

[Intermezzo]

Reaching here...but does Baez drive a Lexus??

Sounds like she got a new circle of friends for sure..changed and bam..away went Caylee. Sort of like Melinda Duckett. Funny how that works. I still wonder about drugs with Casey....it makes you lose perception of things.

I think Baez drives a BMW.

 

[CaliKid]

Oh, poor George. He KNOWS. He's always known from the very first that KC killed his baby granddaughter. And to make matters worse, he was forced to live with her for two months while she sauntered around the house like she did nothing wrong. Forced to listen to psycho-wife spout her dumb@$$ KC is innocent and Caylee is alive theories. No wonder he was out staring into the woods last week.

 

[zoey]

Yes, I can see what you are saying, but we are talking a grown man here, who, when it comes right down to it, is free to come or go as he pleases. If he is staying in that house with Cindy it is because he chose to be there.
Lanie

women stay in abusive situations all the time...could be with GA--plus the kids and all...he may at this time chose to be there due to feeling family obligations---but this also explains why he is out and about pulling that sign--

I also remember hearing that the first time KC was released he really lit into her and after about 15 minutes took a long walk...he knows but is trying to keep peace...(the officers really didn't have much love for CA...:bang haven't read all but am rethinking who cleaned the car out...

No, I did not! But am going back to look now. Thanks!

You know, you are probably right. I wasn't even thinking about the check charges, which would indeed be "criminal history".
