Tru-TV/IN session Caylee Anthony coverage

[Bon]

I haven't watched any of this coverage but if that's Jean Casarez why didn't she bring up his previous statements about ICA? He was convinced of her guilt before she hired him.... JC is pro-defense on IS and then the opposite on NG.

I was just getting ready to post his quote from before he took the case, here it is............"You can pretty well predict there's going to be a life sentence, either a plea and get it over with or have a circus trial and then be convicted and get life." J. Cheney Mason (before he joined Casey Anthony's defense team)

Does IS pay for interviews? Anyone know?

No payment.

Ya know...I (personally) don't see CM as having been a big part of this case. If he was looking to become famous...this isn't doing it for me. I won't be remembering him when all is said and done. When I do find cause to think about him, I think about Nelson Serrano...and all of his claims. IMO, he's full of hot air.
Interesting info about Mason here...

For some silly reason, I'm finding the last paragraph of that article quite amusing! :crazy:

Yet quality remains paramount for a true solo like Mason. There will always be that client who has un*realistic expectations or who makes demands that are unfair, unethical or even illegal, he says. (“Don’t be afraid to fire them,” he instructs.) But generally, “you have to return phone calls and do the work when you’re supposed to. You can’t satisfy every client, win every case or make every client happy, but you can damn sure try.” In the end, he says, “there’s really no substitute for paying attention and doing the work.”

The one lie about Casey not having an office at Universal.

That was the one lie they were able to prove 100%. How about another biggie? Pleading not guilty to stealing Amy's money when KC signed her own name to the checks, there are videos at BOA showing her cashing the checks and also at Target. KC waiting until they were going to trial to admit it and JB made it sound like Amy was the criminal for not dropping the charges.

By-the-way, we are not bloggers, we are sleuthers. We are not idiots as we were not the ones who stood before the media and made comments about KC's guilt prior to joining her team.

As for InSessions, the media always has an angle and we will see it played out on InSessions during the trial.

I truly believe CM enjoys upsetting the judge. We can assume he was responsible for having JS removed. He is still at it with HHJP. CM may think he is being disruptive in the name of justice but JB has everything to lose and CM will lose nothing. He can retire and collect those royalties on his book. How boring would his book be if he just sat there and did what any normal defense attorney would do? There is a method to his madness. It's all about book deals. jmo

Thank you Bon, I was looking for that... wish someone would send it to JC. :liar:

:laugh: Well you've pretty much summed up the whole program - haven't you? :giggle:

 

[WolfmarsGirl]

Thanks Horace for pointing out the computer searches on neck breaking and chloroform. When I hear a talking head discuss this being a circumstancial case and there's not a way to tie ICA to Caylee's death, those searches tell a lot.

However, with CA being such a loose cannon with her attempts to protect her daughter, do you suppose she will fess up that she was the one on line conducting those particular searches. Or even George claiming he did it?

I know, I know - there is supposed to be proof they were both at work during those search times, but I would not put it past one of them to lay claim to the search and have a bonefide reason for wanting to research those topics.
That's how desperate they can be when it comes to saving their daughter.
What do you think?

But, with KC being who KC is, I am quite sure she was also logged into, and active on, Facebook and Myspace at exactly the same time these searches were performed. I can't see anyone claiming they were all doing a tag-team computer usage session, with KC using it for 30 seconds and then handing off the computer to CA to do just one little search on chloroform.

So, in a nut-shell, she can be pinned specifically to those incriminating searches.

That right there tells me ALL I need to know.....

That is the MOST important part of the whole interview. If he were working for an innocent client, he would be shouting it from the rooftops in this interview just days before jury selection. He won't answer it, that's as good as saying she's gulity IMO. Not to mention he calls it an unfortunate accident. (not sure of exact wording) He's not going to day she's innocent but he's got an accident theory up his sleeve to sell to the jury.

In the interview:

Mason wouldn’t address why Anthony went 31 days without telling anyone the child was missing. “That’s going to have to wait for trial for the answer,” he said. ”Does it make people prejudiced against her? Yes.” But he added, “If the child were unlawfully killed, then the crime ended when she was killed. The next day, the next week, the next month really is kind of irrelevant to what happened.”

I can't believe he actually said that! :waitasec: "If the child were unlawfully killed then the crime ended when she was killed?" Really? :banghead:

Very interesting - thanks for sharing. Looks to me like he's a better businessman than he is a lawyer............:loser:

 

[ScubaTwinn]

Jean C interview w/CM . . . time when you were not involved in this case but watched it . . what did you see?
CM 1 sided abuse from news media attacking not just kc but also her lawyer . . they attacked her lawyer and it was wrong . . .
Im not getting paid . . .volunteered a lot time & $ in this case. . . . I belong to . . . come to the defense of laywers being unfairly attacked . . . ultimately we had a discussion and he asked me to help and here we are 800 hours later.

800 hours later? He joined the team 3/18/2010 - 800 hours and a 40 hour work weeks equals 8/5/2010. It's been approximately 58 weeks since 3/18/2010 as of today. Even if he didn't work a full 40 hours a week on the case since he joined - let's use 20 hours x 58 weeks = 1,160 hours. Are you kidding me??? 800 hours? Am I wrong or missing something?

Thank you

You've got to be kidding me!!! What did he say about her back in Dec of 2008? Oh yeah, that she was going to get life one way or another. Now he's on the DT and all the sudden his view changes. So CM.....who murdered beautiful little Caylee then? Is anyone out looking for that person? Nope, not even CA and GA. Know why? Because the murderer is behind bars!!!

Good comparison. We all know how things worked out for Ted Bundy. Not so good since Florida fried him in old sparky.

The fact that he said, "if," and, "unlawfully killed," speaks volumes!!! I think we just found our answer to what the DT is going to say!!

They will claim it was an accident. No doubts now for me.

CM is definitely less snake-like than JB and he is, therefore, less prone to be adept at trying to sell everyone the Brooklyn Bridge. In my opinion, CM is kind of a nice old guy.

But, my opinion of him does not matter. What matters is the fact that he cannot b.s. very well and he is more likely to reveal stuff in interviews than JB.

I think we need to pour over the transcript of this interview as soon as it becomes available!! Clues everywhere, imo.

Recently, I was going over the computer forensics for the cholorform/neck breaking etc...searches done in March and iirc Yes, who ever was conducting those searches was also on social networking sites...I think Myspace was one of them

 

[TotallyObsessed]

Anytime - and I'm a practical kind of a gal who loves strategy. In my line of work I always have to be thinking ahead - if I do this - will that person do this, this or that?
And for the last couple of months I have been puzzling to myself - what could the defense possibly say that to me would have a shred of credibility? Trying to wipe the slate as clean as I can and look with "new eyes" - what could it be that would make me go "AHA" - "now I understand".

And NOW, CM is coming up with a tragic and unfortunate accident? And we will hear shocking revelations about the parents? Buses heading for CA and George.

Well, let me say it here. I don't give a tinker's damn what ICA's parents did in their own lives and to her. ICA was an adult. ICA was the mother of Caylee. Shoulda coulda woulda cuts no ice with me at all.

The responsibility for this murder lays squarely on ICA. The rest is just interesting fluff we amuse ourselves with while we wait for justice to be served.

A tragic and unfortunate accident? ICA has waited three long years to claim this? Seriously. Now that is tragic. All this attention - all this money, all this media attention.....Somebody let the DT know it's a tragic joke.

But the way I see this whole “bus coming after the parents” thing...I believe it is strategy. And by that I mean strategy that has been planned and worked out with GA and CA’s blessings. They will put forth a “tragic and unfortunate accident” all the while blaming ICA’s reactions (or lack thereof) afterwards on things that happened in her childhood....things that can be blamed on GA and CA.

But with all my heart I believe that GA and CA know full well what is rolling their way. They don’t care. If the end justifies the means, then they are all for it. They will at least, in the end, have their precious CEO back inside their four walls of love.
