Motion: Casey P.I. Info Not Privileged
Lawyers In Civil Case Seek To Depose P.I.

Gonzalez's attorneys want a judge to order private investigator Dominic Casey to give a deposition for the civil case.

On Thursday, Casey testified that he was working on behalf of the Anthony family, and anything he had to say was privileged, and the judge agreed.

In the motion filed on Monday, Gonzalez's attorneys argue that Casey spoke freely to sheriff's investigators and that the judge in the criminal trial against Anthony released the statements on the grounds that they were not privileged. Gonzalez's attorneys want to depose Casey for the civil case.

Big Question In Anthony Case: How Did Caylee Die?
Some Wonder If Prosecutors Can Prove Murder
POSTED: 7:02 pm EDT September 14, 2009
UPDATED: 11:18 pm EDT September 14, 2009

Without proof that Caylee was murdered, some say it will be much tougher for prosecutors to get the conviction they are looking for.

How did Caylee die? Was it suffocation? Strangulation? Accidental drowning? No one knows for sure.

"The prosecution still has no evidence how she died," attorney Richard Hornsby told WESH 2 News. "Was it accidental or intentional?"

Some people who have followed the case still don't think Caylee was murdered.

Without clearer evidence of how Caylee died, some say it would be hard for them to convict her mother Casey of premeditated murder.

Hornsby said, "If their goal is to get the death penalty, they need to come up with that evidence. It's way too weak."

Said James Lormand, "Whether it was an accident or not that killed her, the fact that she tried to cover it up still means she's guilty."

Casey Anthony: WESH asks if there's a hole in state's case
posted by halboedeker on Sep 14, 2009 4:33:33 PM

Reporter Bob Kealing teased this afternoon: "From the thousands of pages of evidence we've seen so far, we'll look at how far prosecutors have come toward proving that Caylee Anthony was indeed murdered at the hands of her mother and we'll look at whether there is a giant hole in the state's case against Casey."

Casey is charged with the first-degree murder of her daughter.

A WESH promo dangled "the one thing about Caylee that could clear her mother of murder."

WFTV-Channel 9 at noon reported that Zenaida Gonzalez's lawyers want a judge to force private investigator Dominic Casey to answer their questions. Anchor Barbara West explained a discrepancy: The private eye testified last week that he was working for Casey Anthony's defense team in November, but last summer he told the FBI he wasn't working for the defense team. Gonzalez is suing Anthony for linking her to the disappearance of Caylee.

Later, WFTV's Kathi Belich explored the state's demand to see the evidence that Anthony's attorneys say clears Casey. "If nothing is handed over, it backfires on Casey Anthony," Belich said.

Casey Anthony: Missing piece is how Caylee died, WESH says
posted by halboedeker on Sep 14, 2009 11:48:47 PM
<snipped>
The uncertainty over how Caylee Anthony died is the major missing piece in what WESH-Channel 2 anchor Jim Payne called "a giant puzzle of circumstantial evidence."

What are people in the street saying? One woman said she thought the child's death had been an accident, and another woman said it would be difficult to convict Anthony without clearer evidence. But a man said that Anthony's attempts to cover up the crime exposed her guilt.

"The prosecution still has no evidence to tell you exactly how she [Caylee] died, what caused her death," said Richard Hornsby, a defense attorney who does analysis for the station.

Kealing listed some major pieces of circumstantial evidence that suggest premeditation: the computer searches into neck-breaking, the duct tape on Caylee's skull, the scent of death in Casey's car and the single strand of decomposing hair.

But Kealing concluded: "Without Caylee's cause of death, jurors could find it significantly more difficult to convict Casey of murder."

What do you think?

Missing Children Remembered At Ceremony
Monday, September 14, 2009 11:26:18 PM
<snipped>
Dozens of families were at the state capitol Monday for Missing Children&#8217;s Day.

It's a chance to remember all the young people who have vanished over the years.

Most of the names have become all too familiar -- Tiffany Sessions, Haleigh Cummings and Jennifer Kesse.

But the hope is raised awareness could bring a break in their cases.

The remains of Cindy Anthony's missing granddaughter Caylee were found in 2008.

Anthony said it's important for every parent to collect a sample of their child&#8217;s DNA just in case.

&#8220;Parents don't realize you can swab your child's mouth and put the DNA in the freezer and it will last, so, you know, we just need more awareness,&#8221; Anthony said.

Thanks to legislation passed earlier this year, anyone charged with a felony will have their DNA entered into the database.

Civil liberty advocates said it goes against the principle of being &#8220;innocent until proven guilty.&#8221;

Attorneys: Dominic Casey's Story Not Adding Up
Tuesday, September 15, 2009 4:51:57 AM
<snipped>
Lawyers representing Zenaida Gonzalez in the civil case against Casey Anthony are trying to depose a private investigator.

Zenaida Gonzalez's attorneys claim Dominic Casey is telling two different stories -- one to investigators and another to the court.

At a hearing last week, Dominic Casey testified he worked for Casey Anthony, her lawyer, and her parents since July 2008.

But in January, he told an Orange County investigator he has only worked for George and Cindy Anthony since last October, meaning he was free to answer questions about conversations he had with them.

The judge in the civil case originally denied the original deposition request. Now Gonzalez's lawyers have filed another request.

Anthony Prosecution To Depose P.I., Girlfriend
Depositions Slated For November
POSTED: 6:57 pm EDT September 15, 2009
UPDATED: 7:13 pm EDT September 15, 2009
<snipped>
Prosecutors filed a notice Tuesday in the case against Casey Anthony of their intent to depose two more people.

They include the Anthonys' former private investigator Dominic Casey and Lee Anthony's girlfriend, Mallory Parker.

Casey has been the subject of much speculation in the wake of videotape taken of him searching the area where Caylee's remains were found a month later.

Casey said he was following the direction of a psychic who directed him to the area. Both depositions are scheduled for November at the state attorney's office.
