Caylee Anthony disappeared last year in mid June and her mother,
Casey Anthony didn’t even bother to report the child missing for 31
days. The question as to why has remains a mystery to many of us,
unless you want to accept the answers they give like Casey was out
doing her own investigations. She apparently was doing thorough
searches in nightclubs and on the dance floors, in Target and
Blockbuster too. I can see where that would take up a lot of time while
searching. Yeah right! And we were all born yesterday.
Casey was arrested when a Florida Grand Jury handed down an
indictment for first degree murder against her and she has been in jail
ever since. On December 11, 2008 the remains (yes George I called it
remains because thanks to your daughter that was all that was left of
this poor child) were found and people from across the world cried.
Now as a grandmother, if this had been my grandchild that was
finally found I would have been a wreck. I would be crying and wanting
to see where she was found and most of all I would be lashing out at
the person responsible for my grandchild’s death. George and Cindy
Anthony, Caylee’s grandparents, are very different. What did they do
the night they found out about this? They flew home from their little
trip that they were on to appear on the Larry King Show to defend their
murderous monster daughter, and went to the Ritz Hotel, checked into a
room and had steak dinner in a party style with Jose Baez, Dominic
Casey, Michelle Bart and who knows who else. Rumor has it that they
were seen sitting at the table laughing and smiling as if nothing had
happened.
Now Casey’s defense team has managed to get the trial delayed until
January. All this was so to the newest attorney added to the wanna-be
dream team Andrea Lyon who says the court date set would interfere with
her teaching job saying she won’t have enough time in her schedule to
prepare for Casey’s case. What a crock! And to make matters worse the
judge granted the delay. Unbelievable! If she can’t fit this trial into
her busy schedule she shouldn’t have taken on the case. I suppose she
didn’t want to miss out on the chance of that book deal she might get
with her being on this wanna-be dream team.
Now another motion filed by Baez and Lyon to delay having to go to trial on the fraud charges
that the prosecutors have on Casey for stealing money and forging her
friend’s name on her checks and cashing them. They are telling the
courts that they can’t afford to waste their precious time and
resources on a fraud case with the capital case still hanging over
their heads. Well boo-hoo for them. Casey did the crime now let the
witch pay for it like anyone else that has committed a crime does.
This motions reads:
“The complexity of the capital case necessitates a delay in the check forgery case.”
The attorneys are trying to tell the courts that forcing them to go
to trial for the fraud charges first would divert their attention from
the murder trial and impede her right to a fair trial. Since the death
penalty has been added they claim they need more time to prepare since
Lyon will needs to catch up with the case.
By their way of thinking they say that since Amy Huizenga, Casey’s
ex-friend has been compensated by her bank and Baez’s firm reimbursed
the bank for more than $600 there should be no harm in delaying it.
My question here is why should Casey get this delay at the expense
of Amy Huizenga’s justice for what has happened to her? Bowing down to
Jose Baez and his demands doesn’t seem to be quite fair to Amy. She is
the victim here and I know if it were me in her shoes I would be
expressing my rights to a speedy trial and make them go to a trial now.
Casey has had enough privileges set for her. She thinks she is a dam
princess enough now anyway. It is time to take her damn crown away and
bring her back to reality, where if you put yourself in this position
you must pay for it.
Another motion
filed by Baez is to prevent the state from using statements made by
Leonard Padilla or any of his employees as evidence in the trial. Baez
claims that they were working for him at the time so everything they
heard should be privileged information.
According to defense lawyer, Richard Hornsby the agreements are
worthless that were signed because Florida statutes do not allow
attorneys and bail bondsmen to enter into confidentiality arrangements.
“Jose Baez should have never had a reasonable expectation that
anything she said would be confidential or fall under the attorney
client privilege and that’s a big problem,” said Hornsby. “He should
have advised her right away – don’t say anything to anybody.”
Padilla has said that Anthony has made some damaging statements such as “They haven’t even found the clothes she was wearing”
“Everything’s been a game to her…to lead us to believe the clothing
was somewhere but not in the proximity of the body,” said Padilla.
Whatever it is that Padilla and his employees have that they can say
on that witness stand must be something that can really hurt the
defense’s case. If not, why would they bother going through the trouble
to block it from being used. I said Jose (sleazebag) Baez is starting
to run a bit scared.
I think that Caylee’s justice is way over due. Her life was taken
from her way too early and she deserves to receive justice. Let’s hope
that the judge doesn’t listen to Baez and Lyon and that he allows all
this to go on with no more delays so not only Caylee can get her
justice but so the person responsible for all this no longer receives
royalty status and she finally pays for this horrible thing she has
done to her own daughter.
God Bless You Caylee Marie. We are all still fighting for you and we still love you!
