Where the heck is George???

[nancy botwin]

I think he did the right thing as well. And it had to be tough ~ I cannot imagine.

I really appreciate that he said his focus was on Caylee and always was on Caylee.

He asked for prayers at 11 a.m. and 11 p.m. He came out of court around 11 a.m. Perhaps he is thinking of going home at 11 p.m. The least we can do is pray for him.

The 11:00 thing scared me-- the "11 o'clock number" is the bombastic and dramatic finale in musical theater-- like "Rose's Turn" in the musical Gypsy.
Maybe he just chose 11 and didn't intend it to have further meaning.

That said, my heart has always gone out to George. I started a thread about it a few weeks ago, but it was closed. I feel very badly for both George and Cindy right now and I think they -- especially Cindy-- should be under some sort of suicide watch. I hope they're okay.

One local reporter - I think it was on Channel 6 mentioned that George came home about 2 pm this afternoon. When they showed Cindy pulling in, his car was already in the garage. Unless he left again - and I think the reporters would have said something, he is home.

Maybe George asked for witness protection??? Or traded what he knew for a lesser sentence. Maybe he would rather be in jail then live with Cindy! IMO..........no support in that family unit at all.........friends? brothers? sisters? wierd? ..............my house would be so full, they would have to sleep standing up and I would be crying my heart out.............IMO

Her daughter is bieng arrested for the murder of her grandaughter and the only thought she has is about bieng on camera for "exclusives" and those poor reporters who won't get one :boohoo:. Cindy there are no more exclusives for you to give! We already know what is happening and today was a wonderful day!

I was thinking along those same lines. CA's daughter could be facing the death penalty and this will probably be the last time she will ever drive freely in a car with Casey again. Her granddaughter's body can't be found. And, her husband was clearly distraught when he entered the court room today.

What does CA have on her mind.... EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS. She is a piece of work.

I really feel sorry for George now.

GA might possibly be in Ft. Myers at his parents house......anywhere is better than being around CA right now.

See car in driveway, she's not alone!

Screen-cap from the CAM.........

One of the news stations said that this car pulled up in the driveway and a female got out; she went up to the door and nobody answered. As she was walking back to her car a reporter asked if she was family and she nodded yes. She got back in her car and stayed there (in the driveway) - at the time I was watching the live feed she had been sitting in there for 30 minutes. I was watching so many things at the time so I can't recall for sure which station it was....sorry.

I heard just the opposite. Can't recall which station it was for sure (was watching so much at the time), but one of those that were doing a live feed from in front of the house said that when Cindy returned home and opened the garage, George's car was NOT there and that nobody had seen him at the home all day.

 

[momMass713]

They just said on channel 9 news that George is home and they showed both vehicles in the garage. The woman that was at the house was there to pict up Casey's monitoring device.

 

[the by and by]

I'm sure CA is grilling GA about every word and question GJ asked him and every word of what his answers were.

I thought that George wasn't home either, but I saw his SUV in the garage looking at this video.

Thank goodness we know where he is now.

Didn't know if you were replying in part to my post...the woman in the car that I was speaking of was a different woman - someone who did not get an answer at the door and who said she was family. They also talked about the person who came to pick up the equipment but that had been earlier.

But of course....the news outlets are reporting different things with all of this so I'm not arguing what you're saying Was just replying with what I was watching earlier.

Friends, I understand that many of us hold Cindy A. in minimal high regard, and some are eager to point the finger of blame at other members of the Anthony family.

I say it is time to leave them alone, no matter what we think of their parenting skills or personalities when under such pressure.

Those of us who are "older mothers" know how hard it is to parent children as they grow into their teens, and they decide to choose the values of the peer group and media over our own.

What choices does the parent have, when a child goes so terribly wrong?

Please, let's not pile on Cindy. She will spend the rest of her life in loss, grief, and personal turmoil, and so will George.

Lee's life will also be forever tarnished and complicated. The whole family deserves our prayers, that they somehow find acceptance of the horror Casey has visited upon them.

Are any parents ever ready to deal with a loved baby who grows up to be a sociopath? Where can they go to learn how and when to "intervene"?

They all deserve our prayers, for they didn't choose this. Cindy, no matter what her faults, did her best, and so did George.

Caysey isn't their fault, in my humble opinion.

I'm so glad that's cleared up. All these crazy rumors and comments resulting from the rumors are making me crazy.

 

[LeLe1953]

This is my wish as well, LeLe. I pray he is at a safe, quiet place with some sort of support system.

After today, I certainly think he deserves it.

Because.......it's nowhere NEAR over yet.

When I saw George this morning, making his statement, it just broke my heart. He is a dad & grand dad. This had to be so hard. I hope he takes comfort in knowing he did the right thing & his heart isn't as heavy tonight. He knew he was probably walking away from life as he knows it. If he has not reached out to a grief counsler, I sure hope one reaches out to him. I know I would give him a hug and cry with him. George, this is for you :blowkiss::blowkiss:

I can't tell you how glad I am to finally see a post showing some compassion for Cindy. Regardless of how people might feel about the way she's reacted to this tragedy she is experiencing emotional pain that most of us can even begin to comprehend.

Thanks When I was watching the live feed they did not show the garage, just stated that his vehicle hadn't been there. Pretty clear watching the video that it was.

I think this is a really wise post. Only Casey is responsible for Casey's choices. I can't imagine what it's like for George & Cindy right now.

 

[TigerBalm]

Nejame just said on Nancy Grace that he was dealing with George today, since it was a very difficult day.

I have to give George credit for standing up today and speaking the truth. Who knows what his future holds due to it.

Just remember George "the truth shall set you free", Caylee would be proud of you.

 

[LeLe1953]

You are right, Casey is the one responsible for Casey's choices. BUT Cindy is also responsible for HER choices. She made the right choice in calling 911.
After that she has LIED, let her grand daughter rot some where. I AM sorry she has lost her grand baby, I am sorry her daughter is involved. But I can not, not yet anyway, have ANY compassion for a woman who did not & will not speak up for a defenseless child. Caylee looked to the adults in her life to protect her. At the very least she looked to the adults to speak up for her. I DO have kids that are grown & you bet the teen years were tough. I have grand sons, I know how hard it will be for my daughter. I love my children & grand children to the ends of the earth, I would lay my life down for them but I would NEVER EVER lie for them. They learned that lesson the first time they asked me to write a note excusing them from something or the other at school. I said NO. They got the hint. I wouldn't wish what has happened to the Anthony's on anyone but Cindy has to face up to the lies she has told & how in doing that, she soiled the memory of HER grand daughter. I hope God has mercy on HER soul.

I was thinking GA was involved and I am I not sure he didn't help KC with the body, but I am truly impressed with his testimony in this case. He did step up to the plate and evidently told the truth.

I owe George Anthony an apology for not believing he would "do the right thing."
