Heart Shaped Sticker And Duct Tape #3

[Hot Dogs]

I would think the gel material it is made out of would soften and disintegrate after a while.

I don't know what those puffy stickers are made from. It looks like a rubbery plastic. Maybe like the stuff that "super balls" are made from. It could last for many years or decades without significant degradation. Regardless, KC may not have brought that puffy sticker to the woods.

In the previous document dump in application for a warrant (p3168):

"FBI lab in Quantico... noticed residue in the perfect shape of a heart....consistent with the adhesive side of a heart shaped sticker"

I guess in Jose's head that must be a figment of LE's and the FBI's imaginations, because, after all, he, lawyer for one of the biggest liars ever to hit the courts, has decided it is thus. And what Jose says goes because after all, he knows his client better than anyone and if SHE says there was no residue then there must not be any residue.

What is WRONG with him?:bang:

That show last nite was just wrong on so many levels..
I cant belive that GR actually accused the LE of tapeing the visits with KC and JB..

Whos trying to taint the jury pool now.. GR????

GR is just wrong.

He did some great "scoop" reporting in his youth, but he is no "News show" anchor, on "in depth" investigative journalist. He is not a journalist at all. Kimberly G does a much better job but she is blattantly muzzled on this case. It is a clear conflict of interest for GR to have his friend JB on so often.

 

[Rumpole]

wait wait wait, there really ARE 2 heart stickers!!!

I agree with you on the rest of the stuff ;-)

Answer is almost YES

But at the moment there is ONE sticker on a piece of cardboard and
just adhesive residue of another sticker on the duct tape.

 

[Rumpole]

While the sticker cut out on the envelope is intruiging, I don't think it's the one that was placed on the duct tape. They also took a lot of pics of other heart stickers at the house. The bubble heart one is the only one we know for sure was found at the scene. I don't think they were trying to give the impression that the bubble heart came from the envelope.

So do you think KC just carefully cut out a sticker rather than peel it off., and saved the backing in a box along with a letter to Caylee. Interesting. Does she always save individual sticker backing pieces, and where are they?

 

[Rumpole]

No, but her point is simply that IF the sticker collected at the scene did NOT leave the heart-shaped residue on the duct tape, then it's likely ANOTHER sticker that wasn't recovered did, ergo the "2nd sticker" theory. Whether or not either "fit" in the heart-shaped backing recovered from the Anthony home is still in the air, too...

Honestly - there could be 3 stickers: the one that left the residue, the one recovered at the scene with Caylee's body, and the one that was removed from the heart-shaped backing recovered from the Anthony home.

Now you're getting it. That's the way we do it

That's the way "we" always do it. :blowkiss:

 

[Rumpole]

That puffy heart sticker could have been sitting in those woods for years.

True. But LE need to check it out.

It is increasingly obvious that "Heart" is KC's signature.

Ironic that shuch a heartless monster identifies with "Heart"

 

[Chezhire]

Some people still use sticker backings, especially ones with non-straight/different/neat outer edges, such as the one recovered from the Anthony home, which almost appears to have been cut out/manufactured with "pinking shears" edge effect, to decorate with: you can write in the center part, OR use it to "frame" someone in a photo in a scrapbook by placing it over their face, body, etc.

So do you think KC just carefully cut out a sticker rather than peel it off., and saved the backing in a box along with a letter to Caylee. Interesting. Does she always save individual sticker backing pieces, and where are they?

See my above post. We'd need to now more about Casey's scrapbooking/sticker usage, plus whether or not SHE (as opposed to neat-knick Cindy) actually placed these items in that box (as I know a few people who, while still living at home had their belongings incessantly rearranged by their parents, much to their chagrin) but I think you'll get my drift.

You and quite a few other WSers have been commenting on this. Terribly ironic.

I don't think the sticker backing that was cut out of the sheet has anything to do with the sticker found at the scene. It's not the same type of sticker. I'm sure the CSI tech's were instructed to photograph everything with a heart on it.

You'll notice the envelope was in a box as seen here:

And the box was stored here:

I have seen no documentation linking the cut out sticker sheet and the sticker found at the scene. There are numerous other pictures of heart sticker sheets taken at the house that same day so I don't know why everyone is zeroing in on this one cut out heart.

Some WSers believe that the sticker found at the scene with Caylee's body is a holographic sticker that is reflecting when photographed, ergo it could match the holographic sticker backing recovered from the Anthony home, and that the reflection when it's photographed makes it appear puffy.

SNIPPED: "... There are numerous other pictures of heart sticker sheets taken at the house that same day so I don't know why everyone is zeroing in on this one cut out heart.

Some WSers believe the sticker backing/the sticker that was inside it may have had some great importance to Casey, else why would she keep the backing of a sticker in a box?

Mind you, I don't necessarily agree with the foregoing, as I'm not even convinced Casey put the sticker backing in that box...and even if she did, she may have kept it to use later, not because it had some significance to her...

I could swear I read somewhere in the latest doc dump that pieces of duct tape sent to FBI from ME had no stickers. I'm not sure if it said anything about residue. I'm going to look for it now. Does anyone else recall seeing this report?

I agree the backing is NOT the backing off the "Bubble" sticker.

LE would be derilict in their duty if they did not consider that it is a possible clue to find an almost useless object purposely stored with memorabilia. At the same time they are looking for anything that ties in with a 3/4" heart shaped residue?
What would you do with the backing find?

I would handle it with care, photograph it, and treat it as potentially of high importance. That is what LE did (Hurrah) and what I am doing. My working hypothesis is that this backing originally held the duct sticker. In the course of normal study and sleuthing I expect that hypothesis to be tested.

Careful, HP, a lot of scrapbookers would tell you that sticker backings, especially those with neat edges, such as this one, which has pinking shears effects, are GREAT to use in/on group photos for, eg, highlighting a single person they "love," or for writing their own words inside of it when affixed to a scrapbook page. Just a sayin...

If she had stored in a box of scrapbooking bits you'd have me!

But look at what it is sitting on Jeeze!!

LE are looking for small clues, not confessions written in blood attached to a DVD containing video of the entire crime.

Chez, I agree, and thank you for pointing out that possibility. But in support of HP's theory, it is unlikely that a sticker backing cut out for later use in scrapbooking would be kept in a shoebox with an old letter to Caylee rather than, for example, with other scrapbooking supplies.

It is the location that makes me think this is a "keepsake" cut-out backing rather than a "for later scrapbooking use" cut-out backing.

haha - so that's why I always like your posts! :crazy:
I've been posting about that in thids thread a bit today here: http://www.websleuths.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3360800#post3360800. Makes sense to me.

Don't get me wrong - I want it to be what it appears to be as badly as you do NOR am I saying LE shouldn't have taken these as potential bits of evidence. (I'd have taken them, too!) But as I posted earlier in this thread we'd need to know some more information first: We'd need to now more about Casey's scrapbooking/sticker usage, plus whether or not SHE (as opposed to neat-knick Cindy) actually placed these items in that box (as I know a few people who, while still living at home had their belongings incessantly rearranged by their parents, much to their chagrin.) I'm looking for the "supporting information" that can be used to buttress these items' value to the case.
