Caylee Anthony Drowned In Family Pool Theory

[Melanie]

And...if Lee and Mallory get married...and have children! No way would that pool be up in my yard, regardless if the theory is wrong or not. It's not protected, and no child should be able to get to it. Take the thing down! Cindy already admitted to the ladder being up and the backyard fence being open.

2 tremendous hazards there if you ask me (not even IF Caylee Marie drowned in the pool).

MOO

On second thought , maybe they are waiting for KC to help them take it down , after she walks out arm and arm with CM. ?(sarcasim)

If the family was a normal family,that pool would of been down in a flash, but they are not a normal family. The pool is up for a prop for the defense.

They also left the playhouse there, and her room stays exactly how it was. They didn't want to believe she was dead, and memorialized everything which a lot of people do. I have always had pools. I taught my children how to hold their breath under water at 6 months. They could doggie paddle at a year. By 2 they knew how to float and swim. Then they started teaching the neighborhood kids to swim. I had a sign : You can't go in until you know how to swim. You'll be surprised how fast kids learn to swim when it's 98 outside and the humidity, was unbearable at times.

I can only speak from experience of what I would do. My daughter passed on 3 yrs ago from a one car SUV rollover accident and I wanted to totally destroy the Blazer and to this day I hate to even see one on the street. So I think if it was the pool that caused their grandaughter's death then Yes! A trully grieving parent or grandparent would blame even a pool if it caused their loved one's demise. Its part of the grieving process..Anger..

A relatively normal family might have taken it down, but I don't think the Anthony's would.

oops! I didn't see your post before I made mine. I've basically repeated what you've expressed. I guess it's obvious, I totally agree with you!

I'm not sure that the A's believe that Caylee drowned in the pool. We know they deny that GA was present when it happened, but we don't know if they believe any part of the DT opening statement including accidental drowning in the pool. My guess is that they are still reeling from finding out shortly before trial that KC admitted that Caylee died on 6/16 and of course the rest of the story that we heard in JB's opening. At some point they will have to make a decision about what they believe really happened to Caylee and it's possible that the pool will be what causes them to do so.

If they conclude that Caylee really did drown in that pool, then I'm sure that they will remove it. However, if they conclude anything else about the way or the place she died, then I could see them keeping the pool simply because Caylee did enjoy it so much.

I do think if they believed KC's story of an accidental drowning without question then the pool would have been removed as soon as they got home from the meeting with JB where they learned that. I take the fact that it's still there as an indication that they have serious doubts about Caylee dying in the pool.

And, let's not forget that the A's have a daughter on trial in a death penalty case for killing their grand daughter. I've never been in any remotely similar situation, but I would think that it would leave little room for anything else - including contemplation over whether or not to keep the pool.

Again, I agree they would likely remove it if they KNEW their grand daughter had drowned in it - but I don't think they KNOW or even BELIEVE it or even know what they believe at this point. I'm not even sure that they know what they WANT to believe anymore.

That's really sad and I'm sorry to hear that, but we can't always control everything around us that has caused a tragedy. The last thing I wanted was to see buildings where the towers were, but there is going to be buildings there. People continue to drink and drive no matter how many lives have been lost. People continue to fly in airplanes, even though others can't stand the site or noise of one. Guns continue to be sold even though children have lost their lives because of them. We will never be able to control the things that cause their deaths. People handle tragedy in different ways and we have to respect that.

We have an above ground pool and IF anything happened to ANYONE in that pool it would be gone...it would be creepy to swim in if ANYONE died in the pool.

I hope LDB asks CA why the pool remains intact.

My friend who nodded off and her toddler unlatched the outside gate and wandered to the river and drowned.

She blamed herself for having a 3rd shift job (even though it paid more) and quit for much lower paying 1st shift job with another company. She and her husband also dismantled the fence and burned it. They put up a new fence without a gate to the outside from the back property.

They also used to walk to the river with their son to fish and they never walk there anymore.

I said they would have torn it down if they at least suspected it but, with this family who knows. Personally I think they had at least some of the truth after the last 911 call because their personality changed a great deal after that. Raise your hand if you saw any footage of GA or CA beating down the bushes looking for her or even asking that the "mystery nanny" return her on all those television interviews.

Oh my..You have all confused me lol..
But I have to say, I thought the same thing.. (as the topic lol)

The thing that just never makes any sense.. Lets say Caylee drown. They were just going to let it go? Hope no one noticed. Let's assume G & ICA were in on it ? What was that first conversation like?
ok, lets just throw her away, and when Cindy starts asking questions ,we will blame it on the Nanny, ok. Just in case, you act like a little hussy, OH..and its a good thing you were putting her to sleep with that Chloroform your Mom looked up. we can throw some of that in the trunk..And why don't you keep trash in there just in case.
Good idea Dad..I will back the car in the driveway every now and then, and borrow a shovel.
But, Dad..I need some money to live on. Oh,why don't you just steal some money from that nice Amy girl. That way ,when she notices it, and calls the police, she will feel bad for you, cause ..oh, what the heck we will figure that out later.
3 months later..phone call to Dad from Casey..Hey, I had a guy go put tape on....... that way,it will look like a kidnapping I used the tape from the garage.. But Casey I was using that tape for posters.. Oh. I guess its ok ,I will have my mistress make something up. But if things go bad, Dont worry I have a great lawyer and you will be out in flash.

 

[Phoebeb]

They've only known about the pool drowning theory since just before the trial, right?
So, I suppose they're thinking if they take it down now, it looks like they agree with defense, if they don't it looks bad too. So I suppose right now is not the time to draw attention to the pool by removing it.

 

[Roze]

I shocked they can even still live in that house. Shocked but not surprised.

I think they have always known she didn't drown in the pool. And if she had, the pool would have come down.

I may be in the minority here, and I have no expert knowledge of swim safety or swim teaching experience, I just have three children who swim and have taken swim classes....so with that in mind.....I don't understand why the As would teach Caylee, a toddler, how to climb a pool ladder. This goes against all the pool safety information I've received from swim instructors and others who try to prevent drownings. I was told that until they are older and proficient swimmers, they should enter the pool with you (in a below ground pool) or be handed to you once you are in the pool. And I know many toddlers are climbers (I had two who tried to climb everything once they could walk), but I don't think I would teach my toddler how to climb up a pool ladder. JMO

According to them she didn't die in the playhouse or her room, she died in the pool. Momento's of loved ones that have passed are treasured. In my experience anyway. On the other hand, I do not want to look at the car that my loved one died in everyday. I truly cannot comprehend what it takes to see the where your child's last tragic moment happened day after day.

Unless of course, Caylee didn't die there..

I hadn't read your post before I posted mine. My appologies. And my deepest condolences on your loss.

Take care, Robin

I still contest that I have heard Cindy say, in a testimony or statement, that she (Cindy) always got in the pool first, and she would "catch" Caylee..She was very adamant but here testimony Thursday, and those pictures certainly say otherwise.
