Hi chilly: Cindy also had a RESPONSIBILITY to be forthcoming and honest with LE and not to lie to them(Casey graduated, Casey was a good mother, there was no fight that the neighbors heard, Casey worked here and there, on and on she has gone in this avenue of mistruth), keep pertinent evidence from them(the credit card statements, medical records), destroy potential evidence(the pants). She has not been true to these responsibilities, so I do not feel that her pointing her finger and laying blame with someone else besides her own daughter should go to her CREDIT either. She did all these things to protect herself and Casey and NOT to help LE FIND CAYLEE...
