2am. Nite all.
I think I'll sleep with one eye open though .... just in case Defcon Orange is called.

Does anybody know if there was indeed a 'split' between Baez and CA? If it's true, CA should have thought that one over before she 'fired' him. IIRC, Mason is the one who was screaming 'Uncle' toward the end of the trial asking her to consider a plea and Baez is the one who kept on going. IMO, at his age, Mason will grow tired of her antics and inability to control herself far more quickly than Baez.

Thank you both for your thoughtful and non-criticizing replies. I was hesitant to post my question thinking I might get roasted for even asking.

As I sit here now, I'm thinking what a shame it is that I even have to ask the question. If justice had been served, that question I asked wouldn't even have entered my mind because she'd be where I feel she should be instead of where she is at now.

IMO

I definitely understand your point. I personally think that she killed Caylee because she felt Caylee was a burden, and was preventing her from living the life she wanted- so she killed her, justified it in her own mind somehow, and moved on. Do I think she would just snatch up a neighbor's child and kill it? Not necessarily. It wouldn't serve her any purpose, as the child isn't her responsibility.

HOWEVER, the fact that (I believe) she killed her own child and got away with it might be strangely exhilarating to her (beating the system) and if she is impulsive and mentally unstable (and we all know she is) she might want to try to beat the system again somehow. Who knows what goes on in the minds of murderers...If she wanted attention or to "get one over on everyone" there's no telling what she would do. Getting away with something so big has got to make her feel invincible, and who knows if/how she might try to push those boundaries again.

But do I think she is just going to run around snatching up neighborhood kids? Nah, I personally don't. Would I be comfortable with her living next door? I wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't fear for my life. Wouldn't want my kids around her, though. Just my opinion though

Not Officially

I checked the Orange County Court Clerk again.
Baez is still listed as Retained Lead Attorney
He has not filed a Notice of Termination with the court.

[Bravo]

I wouldn't like it either if FCA picked my neighborhood. I wouldn't fear for my children. I would fear for hers if she were to have any more. I just like that the neighbors posted those signs.

 

[Dells]

Maybe it's just me or I'm in the minority here but I don't get the uproar about CA being around children. Now hear me out, I don't mean babysitting or having a child or stepchild. I would be concerned for her to be around a child that may take attention from her and that would potential be a repeat but I don't get the concern about her being around children near a school, church, just random children in a neighborhood, etc. Why is there a potential risk there? I really am sincerely asking this question because I see a lot of posts like that and I really do not understand why there is such a concern about that.

IMO

Because the general public believes that she killed a child, her child, and got away w/it. She's a very scary individual.

BBM. ITA. THIS is what worries me about Casey Anthony the most. She probably feels like she can do anything and get away with it. So if some neighbor kid hit her with a toy, or a dog wouldn't stop barking, or you name it and it made her mad enough, well, she killed Caylee and was acquitted, so what would stop her from hurting someone else? I don't think she's hunting children, but God Forbid the one that gets in her way or inconveniences her life in some way the next time. Or an adult, for that matter too. There's no telling when she will hurt someone next. She is a ticking time bomb, and there's no mom to clean up her messes this time. She's even more dangerous now. She's with people who don't really know her or how to handle her. I'm sure she's manipulating people left and right, including that Pastor. That is what scares me the most.

She is and i certainly wouldn't want her around my child. I just wouldn't have the same fear that i would have if a Pedophile lived next door. I would have fear tho.

I see it as the opposite. Baez is young and was trying to establish a serious career or at least some serious money with this case. Mason is at the end of his career, financially set and hopped on this train because he seems to enjoy the games and wanted to be a part of them. He'll stick it out to the end and probably is enjoying all this drama too. He seems to have an odd sense of humor to me. Baez still appears to be going the sneaky back route to me though. Make it look like he's done with her but always available and still on board to make a buck off the circus.

MOO

She always likes to feel high, whether beating the system or doing drugs. She does not like to feel low because she feels low. For her, it is to escape reality she despises.

Frankly, I would not fear her, but I would not want her around. I would never hire her because it would be a huge PR nightmare.

This leads me to the next question, is paranoia a strong trait for Casey Anthony? I got the impression she is not paranoid.

OTHER EVENTS AND HEARINGS
01/17/2012 Record on Appeal Mailed - Copies to: DCA, AAG, ATTY

This was just posted in the News thread. Can anyone tell me what this means?

I completely agree. Mason has been around the block a few times and had an established career and reputation. Baez didn't/doesn't. I think she is just a minor annoyance to Mason and I'll bet he is having a chuckle or two. Excellent point on Baez just waiting in the wings.

 

[BigMomma]

Anyone think KC's therapy sessions are with CA??????

I mean the last time KC had a problem with mental health issues CA seemed to have stepped up to the plate and resolved them???? jmo

She did? :waitasec: Oh yea, she did and then she let everyone know of all the seizures and whatever else was going on:waitasec:

IIRC Mason thought she should work on getting a plea bargain well before the trial even started... even he didn't expect the Pinellas 12.

 

[SunnyinMO]

Um - Let's just say there was lots happening in the St.Lucie thread after the daily beast article came out about the pastor etc. Tweets, twanas, and er trouble...and many of us were overjoyed to see the words Welcome, LG or whoever else was on that thread when we logged in this morning.:innocent:

thanks for the reply...I was wondering the same thing...what the heck does it mean when it says a thread has been moved and is under review??? :waitasec:

 

[Sleuths4Me]

If i recall as well before he was on her DT there is video of him saying she is "GUILTY":crazy:

 

[krkrjx]

Do you know how flipping fast Casey would go through a million dollars? I know people tend to believe that Casey is going to get away with not paying taxes, but that is not true. The IRS doesn't mess around and they'll get their money. She's a very careless girl and has always spent above her means... her family is the same way. They'll all be broke within a few years.

I'm still not convinced that anyone would pay Casey a million for an interview.

Yep, a million dollars is not a lot of money in today's economy, for anyone. Taxes take a big bite, for one thing. A person in their 50's might get that amount and be able to invest it in a way that it could stretch for the bulk of their remaining life, if they were frugal. Casey is only half that age, and she would have to share the money with others--even if she doesn't pay a dime toward her judgments she will have to pay her attorney for setting up any deals.

But most importantly, Casey is horrible with money. Even if she got a full million tax free and didn't have to share with anyone, she would blow through that cash in no time flat. Casey will in no way be "set for life" if she gets a million dollar deal, so that isn't what bothers me about her being paid to show her mug in an interview. What bothers me about Casey getting any kind of money deal is that she would have no deals at all if she had not committed a horrible crime against her child. I worry about any society that has citizens willing to pay a murderer for her actions.

I agree and you definitely do not want to be reading the foxnews article Sumbunny posted this morning by Dr. Keith Ablow......

http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012...records-tell-us-did-casey-really-kill-caylee/

What Casey Anthony's psychiatry records tell us -- Did Casey really kill Caylee?

No quotes..not worth quoting..

Or you will be throwing things at the wall like I was.....:furious:

 

[rose222]

I think part of the reason I'm still drawn to this drama is that I naively thought that being in jail (solitary confinement at that) for 3 years would have put a little sense into KC. I thought that the acquittal would have humbled her a tiny little bit and put some sense into her. I forgot. I forgot that she is a sociopath. She seems worse than ever.

thanks for the reply...I was wondering the same thing...what the heck does it mean when it says a thread has been moved and is under review??? :waitasec:

Much misbehaving and breaking of the WS TOS.....:innocent:

It depends on how much there is to clean up in the thread - it takes up a lot of the mods time to do that and if it is all carp - sometimes it seems better for them to just leave it closed and open a fresh one with mega warnings - in answer to the poster who asked that question...
