Anthony's did not tell Police New Zenaida Story

[EmMomma]

To hear Lee tell why they did not share this info he seems to be saying that they were not getting along with LE or did not like the direction that LE was taking the investigation, so, since we are not getting along with them and further, we don't like them and they don't like us, we are not sharing any more VITAL and CRITICAL information with them...Boooo Hooooo!!!!

The truth of WHY not one single Anthony family member went to the police with this information is KEY to unraveling the entire tale. WHY did they not share this with the police? WHY? WHY? WHY?

IF

They were SO worried about Caylee?

ITA.
From the BEGINNING, the A's adopted an "US VERSUS THEM" mentality.
Lee's "sleuthing" is just the tip of the ice berg.
IMO, it's because they have known, from the beginning, that their little princess was the one responsible for Caylee's death. (and, of course, that Caylee was indeed gone)
They went into survival mode, doing everything in their power to keep the state from building a case against her.
JMO, of course.

As unlikely as it seems to those outside their family, the Anthonys apparently didn't recognize KC's potential for the truly horrific. I'm sure they've dealt with many a wacky drama orchestrated by her over the years. However, even though she was a petty thief and pathological liar, those character flaws evidently never included violence or actual criminal activity, to their knowledge.

So, when Casey outlined her absurd story about Caylee's kidnapping, they may have thought it outlandish, but never suspected Caylee had been harmed, let alone by KC. LE on the other hand, was convinced from the first day that Caylee was dead and by KC's hand. To the Anthonys, that meant that they were "out to get" their daughter. From that point onward, they were locked into a no win situation. While I am positive they wanted desperately to find Caylee, they also wanted to find an alternative to their daughter being a baby killer.

I truly hope that the SA has more convincing evidence of KC's guilt. Even then, the Anthonys may simply refuse to ever acknowledge that KC killed Caylee. If they can find solace in believing she was framed or that the baby died by accident or that KC is really insane, who are we to begrudge them that small relief. Their lives will forever be hell on earth, after this tragedy. They will see Caylee in every little girl that passes by and in the sleep every night. Grief such as theirs never finds true peace.

If a "kidnapper" had taken Caylee and given Casey the instructions she has claimed to her family-I am 100% sure that THE number one instruction would have been DON'T TELL LE MY NAME!

snipped

Whoa!!!!!!! magic-cat you may have just come up with a goodly portion of what the defense is going to say!!!!!! think about it. Yes, KC lied to the police about everything INCLUDING THE KIDNAPPER'S NAME She had to, they were threatening Caylee and the A's. This is also the reason she is still not saying one word - because 'they' are still out there and even more determined that KC not tell on them because they would be arrested for murder. So her family is still being threatened. You know, this is actually as plausible a defense as anything else that they might come up with. This is also why LE could not find the 'right' ZFG - because the kidnapper(s) has/have a different name. Yeah, I can see JB running with this one. I know I would not believe a word of it, but then I would never get picked for this jury!

This is an intriguing scenario.

Wouldn't that just be the icing on the cake?

Here's how that theory would backfire with me as a juror:

So let me get this straight, it's ok if baby Caylee was scared, abused, and then murdered and dumped like trash, but her mom could not and still can not say anything lest she or any of the other adults in the A clan have to face the same violence Caylee was up against? And this fear was/is so real that while Caylee could have been suffering tremendously, her mom was grinding on a table with another woman and shopping for beer and bras at Target?

Ok..

Guilty.

 

[Sonne]

The entire Anthony family should hang at High Noon if they refuse to tell the truth. :twocents:

Agree, but I'll add that it would serve KC no purpose to keep the REAL kidnapper's name secret still. Caylee has been found, KC sits in jail. Why not 'tell the truth' and have THEM arrested for murder?

That would be my first point to sling back at the defense.

 

[tangerinemoon]

To me it's just more proof of their blatant attempt(s)to obstruct the police. Almost like, "yeah, we (I) lied to you to protect my sister, so what?".

 

[chefmom]

Ok! Just throwing this out there because it just kinda popped in my head while reading all of this. There is another thread here about KC being ZFG. What IF, this whole new story about ZFG telling KC what to do was fabricated to cover the fact that just maybe KC went down and paid on a ticket for a ZFG. And, if LE knows that she possessed a fake ID under this name and received a ticket and paid it under the name ZFG, then there has to be a reason that KC did this, right? It couldn't be as simple as her playing the part. It HAS to be that ZFG had the baby and was threatening her if KC didn't do exactly what she said, like come up with the money to pay her fine and go to the courthouse and take care of the ticket. Hmmm. Just a thought.

:waitasec:

 

[Gypsy Road]

The way I see it - by not telling LE the new improved ZFG story, the Anthony's only have themselves to blame for LE not looking at every angle. They can't blame LE for anything if they themselves were witholding this info.

 

[Jolynna]

IF they had REALLY thought Caylee was alive, they'd have given Casey's new story to LE in a heartbeat.

Cindy didn't hesitate to call LE once she found Casey without Caylee. She knew enough not to let Casey out of her sight and to take the battery out of Casey's car.

I think the Anthony's went into "defend Casey" mode when they got the scientific preliminary results.

Obviously they were not. IMO, they had already accepted Caylee's death. Frankly, I wonder which of the As changed the kidnapping story to J Blanchard Park ?

They sure got the 'mall photos' out there AFTER the Blanchard Park story though, didn't they?

I didn't see all sorts of coverage of BP when the story changed?

totally agree and think they're all scared of joining casey in jail. They are all hiding the truth.

 

[Jolynna]

The mall pictures were WAY after the BP story.

I know the Anthony's said they believed Caylee was alive.

But, their behavior says they gave up on Caylee around the time of the scientific results.

I don't doubt that Cindy, George or Lee would have given up their own lives to save Caylee. Considering that, there is NO WAY they would have NOT told LE about the possibility of the kidnapping happening at J. Blanchard Park, IF they had hope.

My opinion.

(Resp snipped)

I agree with your post about their denial except for the part I bolded only because I think they ALL knew exactly what the odor was in the car (decomp).

And then CA turned even that into the smell of denial.

IA.

I hope my earlier post was clear. I was trying to point out that I would have expected their own media influx pointing towards BP once the story changed, in the same manner they did later with the mall sighting photos.

Exactly. And not just KC dancing the night away. Lest we forget the family backpedaling on original statements made to LE, once they got in front of the media, as well as, "I won't answer questions unless you give me a podium" and let's also not forget the meet and greets. None of them showed fear or concern for Caylee or their own lives, not once. It was all about defending their original statements and trying to protect their image and KC's reputation.

This is not how a normal family acts when a loved one, especially an innocent little 2 yr. old goes missing. This family, the whole lot of them, have been so blatant in their lies, it disgusts me.

I am trying to have total faith that there will not be even one juror gullible enough to not realize that everyone in this entire family is lying through their teeth, and have been since the beginning. They knew what happened and they made statements to that fact to LE. And then they went into protect KC mode and tried their best to have an explanation for what they originally said. The first intial reactions...smells like there's been a damn dead body in
the car....kc, what have you done...let's go check under the playhouse in the backyard...I smelled that smell before and I prayed it wasn't Caylee in the trunk. Those were the true words and they know it. They all make me sick.
