2011.05.31 TRIAL Day Six (Afternoon Session)

[TonyGatto]

Casey being asked about getting her "friend". (not imaginary)

 

[LolaMoon08]

I never knew that Caylee had a half brother??? Anyone else?? Never heard this before.

 

[Drama Queen]

The father in a car accident, Zanny had a car accident, GA had mini strokes. Nothing she has ever said has been true.

 

[epiphany]

JB: do u think Eric Baker exists?

Overruled

JB: do u have any evidence that EB ever existed?

 

[Bobbarita]

Half brother?

 

[rosepetal1065]

Okay he's going to the left with this questioning....gross

 

[Mendara]

is JB tryign to say George is the father? awful

 

[sunsetbeach]

Is this E. Baker the same one that was mentioned a long time ago?

ETA: thought the guy everyone was talking about a long time ago that died in the car wreck had a different name.

 

[JSR]

So he made her do it. What was CA's reaction to looking at her daughter? My computer froze.

IMO she looked determined.

 

[DairyGirl]

Did he really ask that question again after it was sustained before?

 

[Softail]

JB can't let go of Eric Baker... CJBP says NEXT QUESTION after several objections by LDB.

 

[nursebeeme]

Jose just opened up a WHOLE NEW CAN of Jeff Hopkin's worms imhoo!

 

[EGirl]

I never knew that Caylee had a half brother??? Anyone else?? Never heard this before.

It's a lie.

 

[babycat]

I never knew that Caylee had a half brother??? Anyone else?? Never heard this before.

Don't get too attached to him, I have a feeling he doesn't exist.

 

[nerdy]

Oh goodie, goodie: Casey's imaginary friends. Haven't we heard enough about them
for the last 3 years? JB is venturing into dangerous territory IMO.

Sex abuse victims stereotypically make up imaginary friends.

JB is IMO trying to use popular culture in lieu of expert testimony (which he can't produce) to establish ICA's dissociative behaviour.

 

[Intermezzo]

Baez Honey...Casey likes her imaginary friends to be wealthy
Jeff Hopkins is wealthy
Zanny is wealthy

 

[carole]

lol does he think calling them "Casey's imaginary friends" helps anything?

I think he's trying to be sarcastic.

 

[nosytrish]

so eric baker is a real person who did pass away in a car accident BUT was he really caylee's father? they couldn't do a dna test on a family member of his to see if the preliminary (mitochondrial) dna was a match?

 

[Bipolar Express]

Is EB, the one who supposedly "died"?

 

[okiedokietoo]

HJBP:defendant may stand
JB:Mrs. Anthony can you see your daughter
(CA got off stand and looked at ICA
JB: does your daughter have a protruding belly like she did at the wedding

CA: ICA having female issues, bloating periods not normal, I told her to go to DR and she told me that she went earlier that week - 1st time she had seen gyno - thought she might have a cyst - 1st period when she was 10
JB: from age 10 to 19 never suggested she go to gyno
CA: going to gyno is traumatic

JB: do you know when she had her first sexual partner?
Objection/sustained
JB: who is Caylees father
CA: 1st told me JG
JB:then you found JG not her father, then who did you think Caylee's father was? Eric Baker
