Caylee Anthony

[AUEquine]

So has anyone else been following the whole Caylee/Casey Anthony saga! For some reason this news story has had me hooked since day one. And wanting to buy a plane ticket just to slap that chick since day 2!!!
I'm so glad they're finally charging her with something, she obviously did something, and all she's gotta do to save her skin is say what!
I'm very curious to see how they pursue this trial without a body.


Anyone elses opinions on this event? I open the floor to discussion!


***just getting tired of all the politics and need a side bar***

I missed that they are charging her with something. I don't understand the whole thing. Was she living with her mother or grandparents? The video I've seen she's with her grandparents alot. I wonder if the mother didn't want her why didn't she just let the grandparents have her? It's so sad, I can not even imagine someone doing something like that.

[Tatesgram]

The whole thing sickens me! It's just another sad example of how our society looks at children. If she get's convicted, it won't be nearly what she deserves and yes, I have tried her and found her guilty.

[palomino]

It is so sad- I could never imagine any harm coming to London- I would die. I hope they find her (body?) and get some answers.

She lives/lived only 20 minutes from here.. some of us went on ATVs looking for the body..

Her mother was more interested in partying than being a mother. And I think her grandparents had her a lot of the time...

[TLC97]

I just can't believe how the mother/grandmother keeps defending why Casey never called.

[Blue]

I never watch TV or anything...all I know is that she might have killed her daughter, correct? What else is there on the story? I watched something on it the other day when I was waiting for the bus to come...but I wasn't really paying attention.

[TheBadLands]

Here's a detailed timeline up to the day

[AUEquine]

Yeah, for some reason this story has sucked me in, and just infuriates me!

My 2-cents and guess on what happened! One of two things:
1- she wanted the baby to sleep so she could party and not have a crying baby to deal with... ie the chloraform. And things went amiss, and the baby died!
2- She sold her. There's alot of sick people on the black market that would love a little white baby. Good reason why there's no body.
Just my guesses!

But yes it makes me so made that she can't even give a straight answer. Hell you could ask her what she had for breakfast and she'd probably lie!
And even worse her parents keep defending her! I know she's their daughter, but this is rediculous! I blame them for alot of it! Blame them for making her keep a child she didn't want, and not stepping in when things were obviously not good! For allowing her to be leaving that child with strangers.


oooo, I'm just boiling! I can't wait to see this girl fry. But she's obviously mentaly ill, so she'll get off on insanity plee!

[Tatesgram]

They think they ave found Caylees body. This makes me so mad, I just can't express strongly enough how I feel about this. I guess we'll know for sure today or tomorrow.

[Tiz]

Poor little girl.

[Remali]

I watched the Dateline story about it last night.....Caylee's mother has some very serious issues....it's so obvious that she is guilty and knows what happened to Caylee. How sad. I feel sorry for the grandparents.

[cheval]

They seem pretty sure the grandparent's are covering 'something' up. I can see wanting to protect family but the daughter doesn't deserve it.

It's sad that it looks like they found her and only about 15 doors away.

I understand what you mean about it being sad that they found her, but it's also good, because it will help bring the murderer to justice. Taking the mother to trial without the body was going to be tough. IMO, no body could leave reasonable doubt to some.

[palomino]

I cried like a baby when I watched that they found her- they were showing all the home videos of her and her GPs. Gosh, Im tearing up just thinking about it. I could not imagine hurting my little London.
So innocent and helpless to have such evil things happen to her.

I don't think it's sad that they found her, I think it's sad that they found her so close to the house after such an involved search. She was literally right there.

[WashingtonBay]

Where did they find her cheval? Outside? buried? I haven't been able to follow it since this story broke.

[cheval]

They found her about 15 doors away from the house back in the woods just off the road a bit. The meter reader found her. :(

[WashingtonBay]

Just out in the open? Huh - bizarre.:(

[cheval]

She wasn't out in the open I don't think. I know there was a garbage bag involved and some other evidence because they rushed right to the grandparents house and took out a bunch of stuff.

[elevenelevenxo]

I think it's heartbreaking, but this sort of thing happens so often all over, yet only certain times do these stories make headline news.

In my hometown about 10 years ago a little 7 year old girl was taken from her bed at night, raped, and murdered. It happened literally a block away from my home. :( People are so insanely sick. Thankfully, they found the man who did it - he was a family friend. Awful.

The reason she was not found before was the hurricane we had. The flooding was horrible.. some water was up to a horses back in that spot. (I live right near here).

Equussearch really tried to get through it. But called it off for fear of trampling the evidence if they did find her there...which likely would have happened in retrospect. Equussearch uses horses AND ATVs to search.

Shortly after the water went down (and its just recently the waters from that storm went down state wide.. we ARE a swamp lol) a worker found the bag checking a wire, got curious, looked inside.. and the rest is soon to be history

[cheval]

What she said! Been watching it on the news.

I'm wondering what the big piece of evidence is.

They did find duct tape over the mouth of the skull.

I don't think her Mom should be killed. I think she should rot away in prison with all the fine things prison has to offer.

What a sweet little angel to be brought so low. 2 going on 3 - the same age as my son.

I haven't watched everything on this case like I did the Scott Peterson case, but w/ this one, I really don't know if the grandparents are covering up anything. I see a mother (grandma) wanting to protect her daughter (casey); probably thinking "she capable of alot of things but not this." They probably just didn't want to believe. They've already lost their dear grand-daughter and they are getting ready to loose their daughter. I feel sorry for THEM. As for Casey, she deserves twice as much than what she did to Caylee. I for one suspected Casey in the beginning. She just acted like it was some sort of fun & games; no remorse, empathy etc. She's defintely got some issues WHICH shouldn't allow her to get away w/ this.
If she didn't know what she did was wrong, THEN she wud have LEAD the detectives to Caylee's body.:mad: ...instead she covered it up and acted like she knew NOTHING


I heard on the news that THAT particular area (where Caylee was found) was searched over & over again but the area where her body was laying had been flooded.

Any NEW news on this? Once she's diagnosed, it wouldn't surprise me to find out she has Antisocial Personality Disorder

[gaited07]

I believe the parents of Casey wanted to believe their daughter whole heartedly, even through all the lies.
Do I feel that they are covering up things, yes, to a certain point.
The father was a ex-cop. His statement on the smell in the car being that of a dead corpse pretty much told me that the little girl was dead and the daughter (Casey) had something to do with it.
Whatever the case on this, it's a tragic shame that this little angel, Caylee, had to endure this horrible treatment, possibly from someone who supposable she loved.

[cheval]

The grandparents want immunity, or whatever the tech term for it is. They are covering up something.

You watch....they had a hand in this too.......I remember watching the interviews with the grandparents.......the grandfather would NEVER look at the camera, and the grandmother was just too......SURE of things.

Ditto.

I don't get why this story got so much attention from the media, though...there are tons of other sick cases out there - some not so bad, others are even worse...I know that doesn't really matter (how much attention one story gets vs. another) either way, there is just too much crime.

Really? You watch people's behavior and that alone tells you a story...if you know what to look for!
I didn't see this part. I didn't start paying attention to this case until after several weeks into the story. Makes you wonder, don't it?

[peace_baby]

I know one thing's for sure..
Nancy Grace is going to get to the bottom of this case.
She'd figure it out without the evidence.
That Nancy Grace sure is something.

I figured Casey had done it.
To think that her daughter had been missing for a whole month before she said something..?
I just don't understand how anyone could do something like that to ANYONE much less a helpless child.

I agree! Grandfather never had much to say but stayed very close to grandmother who tended to talk too much. To me she was very 'staged' in what she had to say. If you listen to her 911 calls, she was very calculating in what she had to say and didn't want to give out too much info. The baby lived in grandmother's home...there's a lot more that isn't being said and it's the family that isn't talking truth. You just don't lose track of a toddler for 30 days w/o seeing or talking to her and the mother isn't forthcoming on where she is.

[HoustonFarrier]

It's just a guess. After 4 kids, and other life's lessons, you kinda learn how to tell when someone is lying by their actions/expressions/etc. I certainly could be wrong about them....but I'd bet I'm not !:)
