Jose Baez blasts WESH story on transcripts

Casey Anthony: Jose Baez blasts WESH story on transcripts

posted by halboedeker on May, 18 2010 5:34 PM

WESH-Channel 2’s report on transcript costs in the Casey Anthony case drew a withering review — from Anthony attorney Jose Baez.

On the 4 p.m. news, WESH anchor Martha Sugalski read Baez’s critique: “Your story really showed your bias. There are thousands of transcripts ordered every day across the state and to do a story on it is pretty transparent.”

Sugalski added that the station’s report focused on the Anthony team’s first request for services at taxpayer expense and that transcripts can cost hundreds of dollars apiece.

The WESH story was another indication of how closely stations will cover the Anthony case. She is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee.

Baez taught internet research to lawyers in the Miami-Dade
public defenders office and started 4 business ventures, including 2 bikini
shops. Bon Bon Bikinis and Brazilian-Bikinis.Com, LawStudentWebsites.Com and
LawyerConcepts, plus applying for a real estate license….is what Baez was
up to.

Baez owns a off shore company?

The Cayman Islands Government has constructed a regulatory
regime that is highly favourable to offshore operations, especially
since there is no taxation in Cayman other than stamp
duty and import duties (see Direct Corporate Taxation).
There are about 80,000 companies registered in Cayman,
along with about 280 banks and nearly 800 insurance companies.
See Law of Offshore for a detailed treatment of the legal regimes
for Banking, Insurance, Trust Management and Mutual Funds.
In this section offshore corporate forms are summarised, along
with details of the fees payable by the various types of financial institution.

In June 2000, the Cayman Islands was identified by the FATF as
non-cooperative in the fight against global money laundering. The result of
this is that the Cayman Islands was one of fifteen tax jurisdictions
placed on a blacklist. Each offending tax haven had a year in which to
correct its tax regulations and legislation. The FATF released its next
annual report in June 2001, in which the organisation revised its list of
countries and territories deemed non-cooperative. Only four were
removed from the list, including the Cayman Islands (the other three
being the Bahamas, Liechtenstein and Panama). The Cayman
Islands was praised by the FATF for its substantial efforts to conform
to forty recommendations set out by the FATF in a code of good
practice governing money laundering.


During 2003 the Cayman government battled to avoid inclusion in the
scope of the EU's Savings Tax Directive, but in the end was forced to
give in by the UK Treasury, and began applying the information exchange
model under the Directive from July 1, 2005. This means that information about
interest on savings paid to citizens of European member states is being
forwarded to the tax authorities of the member state in question.

The Cayman Islands authorities have put a brave face on this
development, which they tried hard to avoid.


I wouldn't trust anybody who tries to avoid paying tax in their own country. Melissa could not find a trust account that Baez may have set up under Caylee or Casey's name in the US. This made me wonder whether he may have done it in the Caymans.

Sorry. I don't know why that came out like that. Here's the link.
