Maybe she didn't abandon the car - Gas cans will solve the case.

She was pissed off that her Dad interrupted her planned use of the cans, I think. She didn't use them by this point. She got a call from Mom about the police report, etc. That's the only reason she returned them. So after this, she still needed some cans and using Dad's wasn't going to work for her.

Actually her and tony went there to get them on the 20th because the pontiac was out of gas, I am pretty sure she used them. Since on the 24th she was in the Pontiac. She handed him empty cans. IMO.

In someone's statement just released I'm pretty sure that person indicated KC gave the cans back on the 20th and GA was full of it.

In Tony's new statement he says he took Casey to get the gas cans on the 20th....(that's why Casey remarks about running out of gas 2 Fridays in a row...20th & 27th)

In Lee's new statement he says Casey returned the cans to George on the 24th (Here's your fu***** cans).

 

[ShinaLite]

I believe Tony and Casey went to hopespring and got gas cans on the 20th, and in Lee's statement he backs up Casey giving george the cans back on the 24th.

right hense her comment about running out of gas 2 Friday's in a row,..Tony went with her to the gp's house to get those cans and probably took her back to her car to fill it up and get it going again so to me, I do think that she used the gas for that only...I wonder if she ran out of gas the second time after driving around all night looking for a place uggh..to put Caylee?
That text to Amy about taking care of the smell on that same day is very suspious to me...If Caylee was in that trunk those few days before, is this what she had really taken care of??

 

[MiraclesHappen]

I think you're right. She sure seemed to be preoccupied with gas cans. A fire would attract a lot of attention though- probably why she didn't go through with it.

Wasn't that back before the rains started ? When FL was still under fire alert and a lit match tossed carelessly could burn 1000 acres...Didn't want the attention or investigation if so.

 

[EastSideOfSaddness]

LOL....great minds .....I just posted the same thing.

Maybe we should PM J. Jordan & ask him if the 'found' gas can looked new ??

Only thing, 'new' or not, if it didn't have holes in it, it's long gone by now, I'm sure. (IIRC searchers did not collect it)

I was just going to say, IIRC when seeing the pic I remember thinking how new it looked. I could be wrong though, let me find the pic of it---BRB

Well with problems we have been having getting gas here in the southeast, I might have to buy some.

Boy that's the truth! I waited for an hour and 45 minutes today, and finally got some! They had a $25.00 limit on amount.
Yesterday I waited about an hour and 20 minutes and they ran out before I got to the pumps!
It's kind of scarey! And I sure don't understand why we have a shortage!

No Joke....I'm 150 miles from the TX coast, but we saw many evacuee's w/ gas cans tied to the top of cars etc during the IKE evac......after Katrina & Rita many small towns in TX were out of gas, the evac's bought it all up.

Maybe Casey was getting ready for a hurricane.......LOL (prolly the one you can drink)

 

[leandjl]

:waitasec: Not sure.......but she wouldnt of had much money for gas to drive around anyway. Well, no money until she stole cash from Amy. The cc's she has from her mother was jcpenny & stuff. I'm thinking Casey really didnt have any money as in gas money until Amy left for PR, but she may have stole a few bucks here and there along with food from home. LA claimed she was going into the house often stealing & getting clothes.

She have been using Cindy's cc to purchase things and then returning them for cash so she would have had some money.

 

[MiraclesHappen]

Good thoughts here. It could be possible that KC did intend to burn the car up and later claim it was stolen. That would certainly solve the problem of how to get rid of the car and the dna. There was no other way to get rid of dna and the smell, no matter how much cleaning she did. Unfortunately, the car was towed before she had the chance to take care of it. If this is the case, then how does the theft of her dad's gas cans much earlier fit in?

How do we know she used the Dad-gas when it was stolen. She may have been hoarding it for a planned later purpose.

 

[EastSideOfSaddness]

Here's the gas can that JJ found on one of the searches.

EDIT: I guess it doesn't look as new as I thought. There's white stuff (probably from the sun) on the top. hummm

 

[tx_Dot]

oh, was that in the 600 pages?

Yep, Tony says he takes her home on the 20th to get the cans......

and Lee says, Casey returned the cans to George ( 24th) BEFORE he could get close enough to smell the car........quotes her as saying ''here's your fu***** cans''.

I don't know... it looks pretty new to me.

It would be interesting to know how much gas was still in the cans when GA got them back.

And I'm still puzzling over Lee's statement that Casey gave them back vs. George saying he took them back out of the car. Somehow I'm still thinking GA took them back when he got the car back from impound.

 

[suspicious mind]

If she didn't intend to abandon it, why didn't she have tl take her to get gas/cans immediately? and who drives around with frozen food from home? I think the gas can bs was just a way to get gas for tl's car. her car was way too staged with the purse and all.

 

[Bathbuddys]

exactly what i have been thinking.

Has tony pick her up as witness to the car not being in her possession, then plans to come back later move the car and torch it saying it must have been stolen....but the tow yard got there before she could execute her plan. She had a delay in finding new gas cans because her dad took back the gas cans she was going to use. Purchasing them was a last resort because kc did not want a record of it.

In fact she may have run out of gas intentionally the week before to set the stage that it was a common thing for her to run out of gas.

Lots of stolen cars torched here.

one word here!!!! Alibi! Alibi! Alibi!

Tony says she was out of gas on the 20th, that's why he took her home to get the cans..........Casey was texting people on the 27th saying "what are the odds, I could run out of gas 2 Friday's in a row ??'.

I personally don't think Casey could drive too far ALONE by herself, & stay off the phone & texting.........she seems to always need an audience or on her way to find one.

I would give everything I own to know if there is any security video of Casey leaving her parents car at the Amscott. I can see a situation where she runs out of gas at the Amscott with Caylee's body in the trunk. She panicks, looks frantically around, and sees a convenient dumpster. She tosses the body into the dumpster and leaves in such a hurry that her purse and keys are left in the vehicle. Why else would she have left her purse in the car? If I place myself inside her twisted mind (a disgusting place to be), I can see her thinking, well.....if I ever get caught, I can say I was carjacked. Her behavior of leaving the car at the Amscott with her purse, and then trying to get gas cans a few days latter when she was driving around in Tony's jeep just tells me she was flat broke and was somehow using those cans to get gas for whatever she was driving. Maybe you can't siphon gas easily anymore (I plan on trying tomorrow), but I bet she could wear a short skirt and get some guy at a gas station to buy her sob story and purchase a can of gas for her. I know her type in that respect.

 

[CaptLogic]

Perhaps, but everything is a lie with KC. She didn't really run out of gas. That was an excuse to tell Tony to get the cans in the first place. I'm sure she was lying to Tony about cans and gas.

 

[suspicious mind]

maybe she was just desperate to be with tony, and running out of gas was a good way to solidify plans with him on fusian fridays. she was obsessed with this guy, she made him give her a meaningless job as a "shot girl manager" for cryin out loud. It's just like leaving a tshirt behind, perhaps a desperate attempt at getting a date.
I mena, she cooked, cleaned, and spent hours on the computer promoting that lame bar for him. what's that movie with the crazy lady who messes with the married guy and kills the little girl's bunny? that's kc at 50 (if she weren't in prison)

Didn't GVS elicit a long drawn out story about the return of the gas cans? I think it was George. Cindy seemed to be coaching??? Could be wrong. There's a bulletin

Maybe Casey was hoarding gas and needed extra gas cans to store it somewhere, hidden away, till she needed it for her plan. She could not count on having the $$ to buy it if and when she needed it.
If gas were an integral ingredient and necessary for her to execute her plot, she'd have to accumulate it ahead of time to be on the safe side.
