Jose Baez to read Casey Anthony's Statement regarding her daughter's memorial

[capps]

ITA!!! I am as nosy about this case as KC is guilty, but I really think that now that Caylee is no longer in the woods, it is none of our business how they handle what should be a very private matter. None of us know what they are gong through in that house really.

That's true,it isn't any of our business,no matter how emotionally tied we are to this case.But than Jose puts out this statement,concerning things that should not be any of our business,to the public. The public will respond....

I miss Caylee every day and every minute of every day. I can't be there for Caylee's funeral, but some day I want to go and visit her grave and tell her how much I miss her.

I allowed my parents to be in charge for the funeral for Caylee. I told them I wanted her buried in a casket and I wanted there to be a gravestone so I could go and visit her. I asked them if there could only be a private funeral for just the family.

I know they cremated her. I still don't want a public event with cameras and everybody around for Caylee's service, but I can't stop my parents from doing what they want. I truly hope that it will help them.

Guess what kc, I really don't care how you feel about the memorial. I guess I was expecting her to say some things about Caylee, like what she would have liked to say at her memorial , had she been able to attend. That would be what I would have my client do, if I were her lawyer. I know it would have been "fabricated", but really, does baez think people care how kc has no control over what her parents do with Caylee's memorial? Are we supposed to feel sorry for her?

For those that dont speak caseynese, here's a rough translation:

I miss my freedom every minute of everyday. I cant be there for her funeral because I'm stuck in this stupid jail, because nobody used the resources I gave them. But someday when an imaginary jury find me innocent, i will go to her grave and pretend to be the grieving mother,but really to tell her that I forgive her for making me sit in the place where they make me eat coleslaw, and tell her how much i missed my freedom.
I let my parents arrange the service cause its kinda hard to make arrangements from where i'm at, and i'm used to them running errands for me anyway.
I told them how I wanted her buried this time, and they show me no respect! Just because I already burried her doesnt mean I shouldnt get to have a say in how it goes this time.
They are the ones who cremated her- at least I had the decency to bury her, kinda. This shows how sick and twisted they are- not me.
I wanted a private service because I hate my daughter still getting more attention than me. Even though shes dead now, she's still making my life a misery.
I cant get my parents to do what I want anymore. I cant believe they've dissed me like this for the whole world to see. This proves they loved her more than me. I hope they hear this and know just how betrayed I feel.

~ end of translation ~

I havent actually taken the caseynese course, so I might not be spot on, but this is pretty close I think.

Great post. I believe you've hit the nail right on the head. Bravo!

I read that too MDO, I think this thread is pretty mellow. IMO of course!!

 

[Gracenote]

I think Casey has learned its not about her and what she wants anymore, and she cant stand it. What dumb statement, and even more dumb, is her attorney standing on a street corner reading it!

I realize that all I am doing is repeating what has been said here a few dozen times but I have to say it, too. I am mystified at the attorney who would advise and allow a client to make such a public statement. Pre-written no less, so not even accidently blurted out under stress. I am not even being critical. I am just confused by it. What was the legal purpose? What benefit was gained? Clearly I am missing something.

I guess I didn't really expect anything more from her at this point, but I can't help but think that Baez help create this statement because he wants the public to pick this statement apart to further his chances of getting the change of venue.

mdo - maybe the private service has already been held.

I think that is the case. It would make a lot of sense for them to have interred the cremated remains privately in an area removed from their immediate location.

 

[Jolynna]

My brother was cremated and his urn put in a metal urn holder and buried next to my parents

EXACTLY!

My mother-in-law cremated and buried in a cemetery. Her urn holder thing was bronze. She has a headstone.

Just when I think I can NOT feel any sadder about this SAD CASE ~~~

I guess I feel like I am in the twilight zone !
I don't get KC ~ ~ ~

say... I Don't understand ~~~ and I'm sure that is the GOOD NEWS!!!
I don't understand the "CRIME"
I don't understand the Words & the Code Words !
I don't understand the "Statement"

But I do KNOW that Little Angel Caylee Marie Anthony is up in
HEAVEN ~~~ Being HELD & Loved by her HEAVENLY FATHER ! ! !

No More Pain & Suffering for Little Angel Caylee Marie !

Hopefully ~ ~ ~ Tomorrow will bring some comfort to the
Grieving Grandparents ( I do feel deeply for them & I believe that
they are truly Grieving )

KC must be dealing with whatever she knows = " in her own KC ~WAY "

God Bless All who mourn for the Loss of Precious Little Angel CAYLEE ! ! !

Baez reads that Casey says "I told them I wanted......" When has Casey had communication with her parents? Through Baez?

Probably. I think BC mentioned that in his last presser,that there is communication between KC and her parents through Baez. He answered that when one of the reporters asked him a question.

Not everyone wants a church service; but yes, you can have a church service if cremated.

My mother was cremated and did not want a church service, a memorial service, or a coffin. She was dying of cancer and wanted a "roast" while she was still alive. That is what we did. (It was very difficult to "roast" my dying mother!)

My gosh, that would be difficult. Your mom must have been quite a character.

Hello fellow WS....Im from Canada and have been following this from day 1. I have posted a few times but wanted to start a thread to see if I could find out some info.

I want to send a teddy bear/flowers or something to the memorial site from my family since I cannot be there. Who would I call? or do you know of anyone I could send some money to get something from us?

TIA
Michelle

Hello, fellow Canadian.

If nobody knows a better way, there is always FTD. They have some very nice bears available, at pretty reasonable prices. Their website is www.ftd.com.

Hope it helps!

When my ex-MIL was cremated there was no coffin. We had a memorial at her church with just her pictures present, and then we went to the cemetery where her ashes were placed in a niche in a wall, similar to a wall of safety deposit boxes, with a bronze plaque on the front showing her name and birth/date death. Her family 'visits' her there.

This is not the same cemetery, but it's a similar set up:
http://www.muni.org/cemetery1/Columbarium.cfm

Over here law requires that bodies be in a coffin when cremated.(But that doesnt mean they have to be at the service itself).

Crematorium rules
Pacemakers and other such devices must be removed from a body before cremation. The body must be contained in a coffin and must be cremated one body at a time.

My dad didnt want us to fork out money for a coffin that was going to be burnt, but there was no way around it.

We got a discount on his coffin though, which would have made him happy. Sounds tacky but he loved a bargain.

 

[Cara's Mom]

Thanks so much for posting this momtective!

Someone *seriously* needs to explain to this girl that the ONLY way she's ever getting out of prison is in a bodybag!! She doesn't get it, at ALL!

LOL! So true. Her statment was so lame, so cold, so blah-nothing. :loser: You'd think JB woulda given her some help to at least sound a little more of a sympathetic character to the public. Her statement left me cold. (Can't use her name since she couldn't refer to her own daughter by name):snooty:

 

[suspicious mind]

I am sure this public statement accomplished 2 things. In kc's mind she made her parents look bad by going against a grieving mother's wishes for her child, and it gave an "excuse" why kc isn't requesting to watch the memorial from jail: she is mad at her parents for having this public memorial , so she is boycotting it.

I agree with your dad, what a silly waste of money. It's good that you were able to give him what he wanted. I don't want to be cremated but I don't want an open coffin either. I don't want people looking up my nose and saying I look unnatural....as if a corpse is supposed to look natural. :doh:

 

[suspicious mind]

That might be an HUGE indication of where Baez is hoping Casey's trial will wind up being held.

IMO

perhaps, but will the state have an interpretor at the trial, or would jose have to provide one? Do they allow people who don't speak english on a jury?

 

[mollie]

Even IF you are cremated your ashes go in a box that may be buried. Caylee can have a headstone.

My mother-in-law was cremated and she was buried in a bronze box.

My husband and I made and prepaid our "final arrangements". We chose plastic boxes or our ashes and have our lot and a headstone.

It doesn't matter if Caylee was cremated. There could not have been a viewing.

If Casey had had her way, Caylee would still be in a trash bag or strewn by animals. Putting a heart on the duct tape didn't make it prettier over Caylee's face.

IMO

Just to add, my Mother too wanted to be cremated and asked for no formal service, just an old fashioned Irish wake/gathering at her favorite club where she enjoyed lunching with her friends through the years. She felt no one would show, but was so wrong.

We cremated her, had a lovely engraved mahogany box for her urn, a "viewing" at the funeral home with sections of the room devoted to various pictures/scrapbooks from her childhood through present with family and friends telling her life story along with her favorite flowers. We, her children positioned ourselves at each section.

We bought a plot. It turns out you can bury four "cremations" in one plot, so several in our family signed up. We also bought her gravestone, and the plot can have additional gravestones added.

I just say this so people won't think you "disappear" if you are cremated. Some people want their ashes scattered (my Dad), some want urns to be kept, some want to be buried. I honestly had never heard about the jewelry until I read it here. To each their own, but wow...

Be glad you don't understand, nor do I-cause if we did, we'd be at the same "place" all those characters are at. Thank G-d you don't understand! What you do understand is that G&C are truly grieving and tomorrow will be very hard for then; what you do understand is that Caylee is in Heaven feeling loved and happy-those are good and right things to understand.
