casey and CA fought on the 15th. things were tense. casey left with caylee for the night and they slept/hung out in the car in the nighborhood. she calls tonE. tonE suggests hooking up the next evening. Casey knows Caylee cant come..also knows CA is mad at her. CA calls casey from house phone at 7am before work. casey decides to come home, maybe storm has passed so to speak, after all CA called her. she comes home in the am after she knows CA is gone....normal day so far. she is not concerned with GA being there. he wont confront her about last night. she probably didnt say one word to him that day. he leaves for work..but she is getting pissy..lack of sleep has her agitated. she wants to leave. she calls CA to see if she will babysit..her plan to say she has to work. no answer. she tries GA to see why CA wont answer her. he doesnt answer. anger starts to brew. she starts reliving last nights events. she is pissed. are they really ignoring her? are they really going to take custody and kick her out. where are they? are they at a lawyers or work? how dare they ignore her. she now decides she is going out no matter what and doesnt want to be home when CA arrives. She brings car into garage planning on packing some stuff in it to take. she's pissed and is gonna show her parents she doesnt need them. she will just leave. well..ok where will she go? Caylee cant sleep at tonEs. Caylee is crying and yelling because caseys behavior is upsetting Caylee.. casey sees the duct tape, grabs it, tapes Caylee in a rage of emotion. throws her in the trunk then heads out stunned at what just happened.
i notice casey isn't looking "hot" in the Blockbuster video. most girls seeing a new guy tend to want to fix themselves up even just for a night in. casey doesnt look prepared for date night. i think after her rage she fled the house therefore not having time to dress up and fix her hair. when she started her day she probably figured she would shower and dress for "work" and hand Caylee to CA after asking CA to babysit on phone call. but today isnt normal. casey is tired, Caylee is fussy and she snapped when CA didnt answer
she probably drove around in shock ..realizing what she had done. she cant undo it. if caylee is alive she will tell CA and others. so casey keeps driving until she belives Caylee is dead. the goes to TonEs. hmmm..the shock has wore off but wait. she's having fun. this is great. she is not emcumbered anymore. shocks wears off into euphoria. wow. she has really went there. she feels powerful.
because she is lazy and distracted and doesn't know much about decomp she probably very easily left her in the trunk until the 18th. around that time she feels a little fear. what to do with a dead body. cant get caught. on the 18th she returns home. backs in car, borrows shovel, considers burying her in the back yard, finds it is too hard and a hole will be noticed. returns shovel. bags caylee and takes her to Surburban Road. she carries her as far as she can - 30 feet and hides her. this part was probably actually a bit tramautic for her. more than the actual killing.
at some point she steals the gas can (cant remember the day) she removes the valve hoping the smell will overpower the smell of death in her car. GA probably didnt smell much on the 24th. it would have been quick, trunk open, closed so fast, gas vapor from the van and casey speeding off. eventually the smell gets worse each day due to fluids baking in the heat. she ditches the car.
thats it. just a moment of rage that turned to relief. followed by a day to day fly by the seat of her pants lifestyle. once the crime was committed instead of guilt she felt..relief and that surprised her. she had a moment or 2 of "what have i done?" when tonE went to NY and she realized without Caylee she couldnt go home. it may have sunk in. oops. now what. thats why she was so emotional over tonE leaving. she had nowhere to go. maybe a moment of sadness when she cried while watching the sunshine video. but overall. she is kinda happy. she feels free. she does however start indulging in drugs more than before to block it all out- as per her 4am conversation with a friend at what may have been a visit to the burial site. there may have been little moments of OMG here and there but she could quicky recover from those.
i believe the reason the rage allowed her to kill Caylee as she already had death on her mind. i think she toyed with killing her parents in a staged home invasion or something. once your mind goes to a dark place anything can happen during an emotional "snap"
by the time casey was arrested she no longer felt emotion for what she did. she was to busy now focusing on herself. she didnt want to be in jail. she wanted her freedom that she has finally had a taste of. she can talk so carefree about caylee cuz hey..caylee is in a better place and darn it...this murder will NOT keep me from my freedom. caylee becomes more and more abstract to casey. she blocks out Caylee as a real person. she had cometo terms with what had happened already and now only cares about covering her own
. and wow..hmm..this is kinda cool on a way. mom and dad are kissing my butt. i'm a celebrity...i have a hot team of legal boys. i'm treated speacial in jail....my lawyer says they have no case....i'll just keep lying. i'm smart, i'll get away with it.
Caylee becomes farther and farther away from caseys mind until the memories are only there for caseys purposes. she no longer realtes to what Caylee endured in any way at all. her newfound christianity tells her Caylee will never hurt or feel pain. casey decides she did caylee a favor. she doesn't deserve to be punished for this. she's a good liar. her parents bought the abduction story. i'll just keep lying. oops. that lie police are proving otherwise. ok..make up new lie. ect ect ect until she was released by 12 people who cant connect dots. casey probably expected to be found guilty of something!. when the jury found her "innocent" on all murder/abuse charges it was further proof to her God and Caylee forgive her and wants her to be happy and that she did the right thing *insert sneeze*
i cant figure where the chloroform comes in. if there was chloroform i have to go with premeditation or an overdose and have to rework a new theory. its just impossible for me to concoct a theory that fits every piece of circimstantial evidence. in that scenerio i have to think she chlorofomed her, placed her in truck, applied duct tape to prevent screaming and didnt give a rat's
whether her daughter lived or died.
even thought i cant fit every piece into what really happened it doesent mean i think she is not guilty. i would have found her guilty of 1st or 2nd degree murder depending on what my competent jury and i deliberated on and discussed. her lack of grieving sometimes points me to premeditation ( i mean actually thinking it before doing it. not the legal defination of having a minute to stop yourself.)...but then i need to rework a theory on that.
regardless....i dont need to know exactly what happened to know Caylee died at caseys hands. and that is all the jury needed to know. they just couldn't connect the dots and latched onto that drowing story and hung on tight to it.
