Cindy & George on TODAY SHOW 10/22/08

[CONNIEHU]

what was the point of their interview? I don't mean this sarcastically - i cannot view it. Did they make a plea for caylee's safe return? Did they provide any indications of what to look for? When? Any of the tips they have that people could be sensitized to???

"waste........huge waste"

At one pt during the interview, I noticed that GA put his hand down on the couch between them, and rubbed his pinky on CA's leg, like he was trying to get her to hold his hand. I think even though there is definitely a disconnect, it is more so on CA's part than GA. I think that he loves his family and wants to maintain the family, he doesn't regret going to the GJ to testify but CA definitely holds it against him. Also, she wants to be in control, not subservient to GA ... my guess on why she is so far apart from him on the couch and is closer to Meredith for the interview. I also noticed she doesn't have gum....

Meredith asked - have you ever sat in a quiet moment and asked yourselves is it possible you were in denial here (referring to Caylee being deseased)?

THey both answered absolutely not

Can't even imagine living in that house.... with them two!

In one word to encompass all that you asked: no...

Nothing... no plea for Caylee... no insight into what the tips are... just denial, a snarky remark using Tim's name... and George thanking Kid Finders for being there since day 2.

 

[drumstick]

wow... just... WOW.

I cannot, CAN. NOT. believe they said the photos were taken BEFORE Caylee went missing.

And talk about JURY TAINTING. I believe they are trying to spread "reasonable doubt" all throught the land! Wont work however. The evidence is going to speak for itself.

I think GA is going to feel so humiliated by these interviews a bit further down the track. CA, not so much maybe. She will be in denial til her dying day IMHO.

The photos that were discussed on the Today show ... they did not tell the whole truth. While some of the photos released were prior to June 16th, the truth is that the famous "blue dress" photos were taken on June 20th only four days after the last time anyone on the planet has seen Caylee. Only 4 days....

 

[chelle70]

They just said that GA and CA will be back on in a few minutes to talk again. Yuck---
Cindy's outfit is god-awful! Yeah, she going to have a breakdown any day now the way she looked in the clip before the commercial break.

Actually --- its on now!

 

[cheko1]

Respectfully snipped.

Honestly, I took her Tim comment to be underhandedly snarky. Almost like she was telling the protesters to go, "waste their time" with Tim.

I took it the very same way!
If people want to protest go find Tim Miller & protest with him! JMO

All is not well in the marriage of Cindy and George. George may have a head that tells him the truth, but his heart is commanded by Cindy and she seeks revenge for anyone she can't control. George is under her control, but not well enough that she doesn't push him aside to make him "get it". It was clear from body language that Cindy is pushing George aside. It could be mere jealousy since people seem to feel sorry for him, but she gets very little sympathy. Sociopaths are narcissistic and that is typical behavior towards those surrounding them.

 

[Amanda1647]

Thanks for the update. I am at work and can not watch it.

 

[Hailiejade77]

George looks so broken. I really think that he knows. He knows the truth that Caylee is dead but he is holding out a small percentage of hope. He is going along with Cindy to save his family. Cindy on the other hand is in complete denial. She might know as well that Caylee won't be coming back but she is better at not showing that she knows.

They were on a NATIONAL tv show WHY don't they plead to the people that have Caylee? Why didn't Meredith ask them to plead to the kidnapper? It makes no sense. Also I would have asked them this, "If Caylee was kidnapped, don't you think that someone would have dropped her off somewhere because of all the media coverage she is getting?" I think thats what happened with Cole P. He started getting alot of media coverage and then he was "dropped off" in Las Vegas close to the strip.

ITA. Isnt that dress one of the Tarj-et purchases using AH's cheque?

GA said it himself in the interview. The photos show KC "having a good time"... surely they have seen the date and time stamps on the pic's???

 

[Amanda1647]

Do they get paid for all of these interviews? If they do it's blood money! I know the travel expenses are probably covered. I think we should all write NBC/Today Show and tell them that we think they should quit having interviews with this family. They should have Tim on and then pay him for his time.

Agree. I think it is definatley blood money.

 

[dcorrigano]

I hear what you're saying.... I think we all had hope at one point but as the evidence mounted the reality was quickly becoming clear even to the blind.
There is a huge difference between hope and denial of the truth.

I wouldnt wish this horrific circumstance on anyone and my heart goes out to this tiny child.
But shows like the Today show who soft step around the bigger picture and allow this kind of falsehood to be perpetuated is not healthy for anyone, especially the Grandparents.

The line between helping and hurting in this case is very clear.

IMO

I buried a child almost 15 yrs ago now, who was on the sidewalk in front of our house. When a drunk driver went off the road and on the sidewalk. For several months after I made a lunch for him for school, I layed out clothes and I acted like he was still here, even got mad that he didnt respond when I called him from upstairs. My husband thought I was crazy because I never actually grieved, and talked to Dr's who told him that my mind couldnt handle it, if I accepted it I would go crazy, my brain was protecting me from what it couldnt handle. I needed to go at my own pace. It took along time before I fell down and lost it. And I completely lost it!! Was I in denial or was my mind doing what it had to do to deal with it? I get the A's. had you given me a slight chance, jeez I cant imagine how long it would have lasted.

 

[believe09]

It's over, in a nut shell, the Anthony's still believe that Caylee is alive and that she will be found before trial. The evidence can be discredited by expert witnesses. And they will stick by Casey because they will always love her.

Awesome-I hope it is true. Why wait for trial though-why not have her discovered now???

:banghead:

Sorry-but release the leads to the media...there are a million people who would be happy to run down each lead for sure. George and Cindy could have Caylee back today if they would use the media for good rather than throw up constant roadblocks....Of course, I believe that she is deceased, but that is JMHO. I am HAPPY to be proven wrong. I will take Casey out for a beer myself to apologize for thinking she was a soulless woman who murdered her child.

I am so sorry for your loss!!! I can't even imagine. :blowkiss:

"In other news, after going to commercial this morning following an interview on NBC's Today Show, Cindy A hauled off and punched anchorwoman Meredith V in the face, breaking her nose..."

j/k

 

[dsd07]

It blew my mind that at the end of the interview CA says that KC "desperately" wants Caylee to be found! Really? Suddenly she is desperate huh? Gimme a break. These people....wow, is all I can say.

 

[believe09]

:no:

What a terribly sad story, and I think it makes perfect sense.

I also noticed he did that......maybe it was his show of support for her.

 

[tekilla]

Does this family EVER stop chewing gum?

How rude is it to go on national TV and chomp gum while talking. I don't think I Have ever seen another person chomp as much gum as this family. And they did it while testifying at the bond hearing also. It is just downright rude.
