Discrepancies in the Depositions Between Anthony Family Members

[jandkmom]

This is actually a discrepancy between CA's deposition and Annie Dowling's. CA says that after Caylee was born that she encouraged her to go out, but Annie said that every time that they went out that CA called and said KC needed to go home and take care of Caylee.

CA also said in her initial LE inteview that AD had babysat Caylee-Not true, per AD, she never had Caylee alone-In fact AD said Caylee would not go near her cause she was clinging to KC anytime she saw them.

I was deposed once awhile back involving a construction accident. I was told by my lawyer to answer yes or no as often as possible, and do not elaborate. If you don't know or can't remember say I don't know, or I can't remember. But above all else DO NOT LIE.
After reading all 3 depositions, I did find a number of discrepancies, but overall I think the Anthony's tried to be truthful. Yes, there were a number of items I find it hard to believe they didn't remember, but a lot of the questions asked were of things that happened months ago and some were over a year ago. So I will have to be a little forgiving of some of there memory lapses.
I personally did not find the number of discrepancies disturbing. Nor do I find the number of I don't knows and I can't remember terribly disturbing. They are human after all, and we all forget things, and we all make mistakes.
I am pretty sure in court the prosecution will make them pay for any mistakes they made.

You don't find it just too coincidental or the least bit odd that ALL of their lies and discrepancies would cover for Casey's suspicious activity and back up or excuse her lies? You would think the law of averages would apply and at least a FEW of their lies would serve to implicate her more, wouldn't you, if it was just faulty memory at play?

Can't blame the teachers...The A's can and should blame themselves for not being actively involved in their daughter's progress at school such as checking on attendance and grades (good student or not) ....the info is available and it's called "Parents Portal" for Orange County Public schools or PIN(Parent Information Network) in Seminole County. A parent can check on their child's grades, attendance etc online...or they could have asked to see Casey's progress reports and report cards.

Nope, can't blame the teachers...Casey is to blame. the A's were none the wiser because they were not active participants in their daughter's education or else they would not have been blind sided by the revelation that Casey was not going to graduate.

My :twocents: from the parent of a child in high school in Central Florida

I totally agree. Let's just pose this question...
Let me see- based on KC's history of truthfulness, do you feel that she is the one who hid that information from her parents, or was it the teachers who just didn't let them know what was going on until the day before she was to graduate.....? duh, let me think!

If she forged a deposit slip and stole from her grandmother, what else could she have altered? I doubt the deposit slip was her first alteration.

And of course they had no need to go over the videos that were kindly provided to them to help "refresh" their memories. I found their collective memories to be quite clear at times...and remarkably similar.

You don't find it just too coincidental or the least bit odd that ALL of their lies and discrepancies would cover for Casey's suspicious activity and back up or excuse her lies? You would think the law of averages would apply and at least a FEW of their lies would serve to implicate her more, wouldn't you, if it was just faulty memory at play?

IMO I think their decrepancies are to make them non-crebile witnesses, so they won't be responsbile for the conviction of their daughter. I think that that is the goal here.

Well some of their initial interviews did - at least GA's. Their collective consciousness has snowballed since then and gotten very Disney-esque, I must say. I'm waiting for cartoon birds and mice to become footmen and doormen.

PLUS, big plus here, everything about the A's has been played and replayed and replayed in the media. Videos over and over and over again. We all could have answered those questions in the depo easily.

I think the SA will show that the discrepancies are an act to cover up for their daughter,KC,because,they too,believe KC to be guilty. The truth doesn't change. Who said that?
Rather than make them not credible,it makes them accomplices after the fact,IMO.

I don't think that a discrepancy is necessarily a lie. However, I did find it hard to believe they could not remember some of the things they said they couldn"t, so yes I found that odd.

I too cannot believe CA is blaming teachers. What class caused her lack of credits to graduate? My brother in law and I did not graduate on time. He flunked soph english 1 semester and I flunked 1 semester freshman choir (ummm I know I can't sing)
Well I never was approached by counselors to make up the credit because it was not a required course and I was still 3/4 of a credit ahead. I found out 2 days before graduation I wasn't graduating because I didn't pass my bookeeping final = 1 credit - 3/4 credit put me 1/4 credit behind. My brother in law knew for 2 yrs he had to make up the credit because english was a required course to pass.
Wasn't a big deal to go to 6 weeks summer school and we got diplomas.
But....... both our parents insisted we immediately get signed up for summer school no if's ands or buts. So I hold the A's responsible for KC, they needed to insist.
it seems that is where they met their downfall as parents allowing her to run them instead of looking out for her best interest no matter how much of a fuss she made.
I am sure the guilt they feel deep down knowing they are to blame for her lack of responsibility.
And they expect their undisaplined daughter to raise a child and make a living and act like an adult when they never expected much from her. KC sounds like she expected everything from them even with all her mistakes.
She is fine with her parents and brother picking up the slack for in her most serious times.
I think Kc is mad at them it is obvious in her aug 14 phone call. She claims she has held in her anger and she was letting them have it. It was all their fault she was where she was. Not much they could say could console her and they just wanted to find Caylee and time was of the essence But not for Kc getting out was her only concern.

 

[Gma Kat]

CA's depo page 74 lines 13-14 she states KC paid for groceries and bought most of Caylee's stuff

page 87 lines 4 - 7 CA states she (CA) bought most of Caylee's clothes

In prior statements - not depositions, CA has claimed to have bought EVERYTHING for Caylee.

my caylee is missing
Current mood: distraught
She came into my life unexspectedly, just as she has left me. This precious little angel from above gave me strength and unconditional love. Now she is gone and I don’t know why. All I am guilty of is loving her and providing her a safe home. Jealousy has taken her away. Jealousy from the one person that should be thankfull for all of the love and support given to her. A mother’s love is deep, however there are limits when one is betrayed by the one she loved and trusted the most. A daughter comes to her mother for support when she is pregnant, the mother says without hesitation it will be ok. And it was. But then the lies and betrayal began. First it seemed harmless, ah, love is blind. A mother will look for the good in her child and give them a chance to change. This mother gave chance after chance for her daughter to change, but instead more lies more betrayal. What does the mother get for giving her daughter all of these chances? A broken heart. The daughter who stole money, lots of money, leaves without warning and does not let her mother now speak to the baby that her mother raised, fed, clothed, sheltered, paid her medical bills, etc. Instead tells her friends that her mother is controlling her life and she needs her space. No money, no future. Where did she go? Who is now watching out for the little angel?

I find the A's lack of memory suspect. CA has made a point to LE that she keeps notes on EVERYTHING, she has her notebooks. - to believe that their memory is lapsing and that this family does not scour over EVERY statements, document, discovery item, interview, on a regular basis insults my intelligence. When something of this magnitude happens to a family most things are SEARED into your mind forever. This is not 10 years down the road and this case is just about ALL they have done since they have not had jobs for over a year. Once upon a time in a previous life it was my job to compare depositions and list inconsistencies for my boss - I am so thankful THIS case is a hobby and not a job!

Thank you for posting this, I had forgotten how powerful it is. If read to the Jurors it would say alot about motive. IMHO. It is obvious CA doesn't think Caylees mother was "watching out for the little angel" :banghead:

See,Cindy is still acting like KC had a job and was a responsible mom. We all know KC wasn't working ,so if she was buying anything it was not with her own money.So which was it Cindy? Were you providing everything or was KC stealing?

Cindy would prolly say it was borrowing without permission!!:crazy:

 

[eaglemom]

In GA Summer 08 interview w FBI p 7892-7893 he says he and CA brought pregnancy to KC because Lee said something after being picked up at the airport by KC. CA had a long conversation with her and then they came to GA and he cried, wants to know how far along she is, who the father is. He is told it is probably Jessie.

Fast forward 7/29/09 deposition GA p.91 he says reaction is "happiness. tears of joy" (covers the crying here I suppose). Now says the "who's the father conversation did not occur specifically that day". But several lines down he says " oh we talked about it probably the next day or it could have even been later that day". Now says (p.94) KC did not tell him who the father was for several days or a week.

Lee in his July 09 deposition says (p.31) when asked if he called KC on the pregnancy " It wasn't really my place. If think if I did not to her directly." then goes on to say he might have mentioned something in passing to hsi mother.
