Caylee/Casey Anthony Case: Mark Nejame Fires Back at Baez for TES

Remains Site WAS UNDER WATER

Orlando, FL-Mark Nejame, counsel for Texas Equusearch, released this statement this afternoon: 

Mark NeJame, counsel for Texas Equusearch (TES), is holding a press conference today at 2:00pm EST in our office, 189 S. Orange Avenue, Suite 1800, Orlando, FL 32801.

To further explain the attached letter sent to the Office of the State Attorney and to Counsel for Casey Anthony.

082009This establishes that the area where Caylee’s remains were found was indeed submerged in water a month prior to the discovery of her remains.

 

The actual photographs will be displayed and explained at the press conference.

Mr. NeJame represents Tim Miller and TES, who have provided the aerial photographs to him which were recently located.

This seems to clearly contradict any claims that the area was dry previous to Caylee’s discovery and the likelihood that Caylee was later brought to that location. IMG_7475

In Addition, Mr. NeJame has attached Mr. Miller’s and TES’s response to the defendant’s, Casey Anthony, request for discovery of the searcher’s and Mr. Miller being designated as a material witness in this case.

    Good for M najeme and T Miller.I m loving that the “good people in this tragic story are taking a stand against baez (and the anthony’s) giving them the legal finger if you know what I mean. Expose those people on national tv, excellent!

  2. Kleat says:

    “DITTO”

    Go Sir NeJame!!! (white knight variety… :) Tim MIller does NOT need this personally, nor does TES need the problems that the Anthony’s and their ‘lawyer’ bring as it works against the advocacy, needs and help for families of real ‘MISSING children’.

  3. loca says:

    bozo
    is such an inept clown! this makes him look like the fool that he is! he isnt dealing with an amateur mark nejame is skilled and has alot of experience with these kind of issues. to think that baez even attempts to ruffle everyones feathers that tried to look for caylee is horrible.

  4. cece says:

    LOL. Boo, that is great.

    “giving them the legal finger”.

    Amen to that & TY Blink for the article.

  5. nickel says:

    God speed to the “good guys” in this tragedy….

  6. Joan (Canada) says:

    Unbelievable. Tim Miller was notified by Cindy to help find her granddaughter, the sherrif’s dept. gives a donation of $5,000.00 to help for fuel, etc. and now Baez is asking for the impossible. Way to go guys. Hope the judge will throw this motion out. The amount of time and cost is ridiculous. Glad Mr. Nejames put this out there.
    The A’s do not care who they destroy in covering for their daughter and good caring people are having to hire lawyers and have their reputations smeared by these sick people.

  7. Kleat says:

    Blink, will there be a video of the news conference, and if so, can you please provide a link here?? That would be great to have that ‘on’ the record for Tim right here.

    So much are the sideline lawyers able to do to advance the case for the state as an unintentional benefit– explaining the ‘water’ and conditions now vs letting the Baez story spin for another year, is a big boost. (duh– Baez)

  8. sosad says:

    Is the press conference today or tomorrow (Friday). Local news websites are saying Friday at 2:00pm. Or is there one today and one tomorrow?

  9. BEES KNEES says:

    Mark Nejame is an upstanding and honorable attorney who ended his relationship with George and Cindy Anthony when he could no longer support them. In a case that seems to have attracted nothing but crooks and con artists Mark stands as one of a few that weren’t seduced by fast fame for all the wrong reasons. WO-HOO Mark!!!

  10. Kleat says:

    sosad, good question– WESH has a ‘live link’ for the conference, it deadends (but could be over), then the same station says ‘Friday’. Go figure– I’ll wait for Blink– I’m sure she has it right– WHY on earth would it be Friday???!?! Duh– apparently those same MSM says the photos ‘were handed over’ to the state. Why hold the news conference AFTER the hearing tomorrow? Better today– seems to make sense it’s as Blink reports, TODAY.

  11. BEES KNEES says:

    It’s two different events.
    Today at 2:00 for Mark Nejame’s announcement and tomorrow morning at 9:30 Judge Strickland will deal with four motions.

  12. Joan (Canada) says:

    I’m really glad that Mark Nejame’s went to bat for Tim Miller. These are both good and honorable men and the work that they do is inspiring. Baez will look like a fool tomorrow and I’m afraid to say that pleases me. Is this what we have to look forward to with all the motions that Lyons said would be coming out in September?

  13. Joan (Canada) says:

    Apparently George & Conway interuppted Mr. Nejame’s conference.
    Read please.

  14. sosad says:

    Here’s why the press conference link isn’t working, at least not right now. George apparently barged in and made a scene. When will they ever learn?

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/orl-bk-casey-anthony-082009,0,1115498.story

  15. Kleat says:

    yes, Bees, but WESH says Friday at 2 pm for NeJame’s newsconference and they post a ‘link’ for the LIVE conference, which appears to be current– maybe plans changed.

    Judge Stan will be busy tomorrow, you see the defense ADDED a new motion, all 90 pages of it, demanding more info from the FBI, it’s specialists etc etc.

    Last minute though– maybe Strickland will deal with that on a separate date depending if he has time to read that and consider it– however, I’m sure the state will want to write it’s response to that 90 page motion BEFORE he does rule. (sort of annoying to the state to have to prepare for that now, on top of other motions already on the docket)

  16. westsidehudson says:

    Ah, that Mark NeJame, the man that ‘throws the prose’….Beautifully argued motion, nicely done, Mark.

    I accept TES’ assertion that the area was flooded, but I personally could not tell that by the photos. Perhaps I was looking in the wrong spot.

  17. cindeefromwisconsin says:

    I don’t see the water

  18. Granmomma says:

    And, Georgetta interrupts the news conference…….WTH???

  19. Joan (Canada) says:

    Wow, Baez and co. are really throwing it out there. Does the FBI have to release all these documents to the defense. I thought under the Sunshine Law, they didn’t have to until trial. Maybe I read it wrong.
    Not the first time. lol.

  20. Granmomma says:

    Joan (Canada)…… the way I understood it is that Judge Strickland has no authority over the FBI …… the judge is a state representative and the FBI is federal. Not governed by the Sunshine Laws at all. I personally think that’s why some of the evidence is still be kept in the FBI labs. Because once the FBI turns the evidence over it then becomes governed by the Sunshine Laws! Maybe I am misunderstanding too….. Can any of you legal eagles out there help us with this?

  21. Kleat says:

    wsh– leave litter cover, plus all the plant canopy blocking view too

  22. cindeefromwisconsin says:

    #19 are you saying GA stopped the news conferance. I can’t get the video to play. Help me.

  23. Wendy says:

    BLINK,

    I’m totally confused. I could just SWEAR that this will be the 3rd time Baez has put forth a motion about the F.B.I. and each time Judge Strickland tells him that he cannot enforce anything towards the federal part of the investigation. I clearly remember the other 3 times that Baez has asked, I recall the Judge saying that as far as the F.B.I. goes, he’s out of luck. Is that wrong??? Did I hear wrong all the other times? If I’m not wrong, then why in the world would Baez continue to waste the Judge’s time with motions he KNOWS cannot be handled through the courts he’s been going through???

    As for George barging in on Nejame. I’ll say a couple of things. I know without a doubt that regardless of what George’s reasons were, I don’t have to worry AT ALL. I know without being there that Mr. Nejame handled that situation professionally, and even with some compassion towards George. I’m thrilled beyond words that TES has Nejame as their attorney. He did the right thing from the beginning and continues to do so to this day. Good for him. You can pass along a message to Mr. Nejame for me.

    I’ve had to inform my husband today that there is another man in my life, at least through this trial. Ha!!

    I “”HEART”" Mark Nejame!!!

  24. Kleat says:

    cindee, who knows where the #19 post came from– no source given.

    WESH can’t get it’s Friday’s from it’s TODAY’S straight–

    http://www.wesh.com/news/20478568/detail.html One sentence they say FRIDAY newsconference and in another sentence, say the news conferenced already happened this afternoon!!

    (their editor must be on holiday!!! lol– )

    Quote from article updated TODAY, 3:16 pm August 20, 2009 (ie TODAY!)

    “Miller’s attorney, Mark NeJame, held a press conference on Friday afternoon regarding the photos. NeJame’s office said the photographs establish that the area where Caylee’s remains were found was submerged in water a month prior to the discovery….”

    Duh– it’s not Friday today, WESH people!!!! geeze… msm….

  25. dee says:

    How can GA stop the news conference…come on now enough is enough from the Anthony’s why does anyone enable them? someone put a muzzle on these folks PLEASE….

  26. Kleat says:

    cindee– Granmomma was right!!! Yes– whoa– here’s the link to support–George did interrupt the news conference.

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/orl-bk-casey-anthony-082009,0,1115498.story

    Could this be WHY the live coverage or video coverage has NOT been shown???

  27. Granmomma says:

    #23 – Orlando Sentinel is reporting that George Anthony barges into news conference and demands to speak to Nejame. Those people will NEVER learn. It’s no wonder Crazy is the way she is…..she’s got messed up parents too!

  28. Kleat says:

    Looks like the interruption might be the cause:

    quoting Orlando sentinel from above link:

    “Casey Anthony’s father barged into a news conference today and demanded to speak with an attorney who represents a volunteer search group.

    George Anthony and his attorney, Brad Conway, are talking with attorney Mark NeJame behind closed doors.”

    WTH– GEORGE said that he never went down there??!?!! I bet he’s objecting to NeJame acting on behalf of the ‘opposition’ (ie TES) because NeJame worked for he and Cindy.

    Now, WHERE would George have learned about this news conference first?? Here maybe??!

  29. Granmomma says:

    #23 – I never got the video started either but the time updated on the OS story is 12:54 p.m. – the news conference was supposed to be at 2:00. So apparently George arrived early to show his A$$!

  30. Joan (Canada) says:

    #21 Thanks for the info. Hopefully someone from Florida will be able to enlighten us.

    #23 I have tried the video also and saw it previously but stopped halfway through because video was not clear and hard to understand.
    Maybe George broke it.

  31. westsidehudson says:

    Casey Anthony’s father barged into a news conference today and demanded to speak with an attorney who represents a volunteer search group.

    George Anthony and his attorney, Brad Conway, are talking with attorney Mark NeJame behind closed doors.

    Wow….To be a fly on the wall. What is George worried about??? This case just never gets boring.

    # 21 that’s true Granmomma, but they are asking for communication between the FBI and local Fl investigators, which means that the documents, such as emails, would be in the state’s possession, unless the state can argue that not all testing is done and the correspondence relates to an active investigation, but I don’t think so.

    # 22 Thanks Kleat, I thought I was being idiotic again.

  32. Kleat says:

    ok, WESH has the video story up now– parts of the news conference shown, with more photos apparently, posted or to be posted. Keeling said nothing about George and the interruption.

  33. Joan (Canada) says:

    Thanks westsideh for the info. I thought they had gone to court for this before and the judge said no.
    So many twists and turns in this case.

  34. westsidehudson says:

    Originally, the link that I posted on the last thread stated (paraphrase)
    NeJame to reveal what he knows about the Casey Anthony case. (It has since changed) It was vague, but maybe that set George off, not wanting NeJame to divulge secrets, although he couldn’t have anyway, with the attorney-client privilege. George rushing in there simply makes Casey look guiltier.

  35. Granmomma says:

    Guys, the story in the Orlando Sentinel has been updated at 4:25 p.m……It looks like Bozo is trying to sabotage the grandparents to me and make them look like total baffoons! A phone call from Bozo prompted George to act like the A$$ he did!

  36. westsidehudson says:

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/orl-bk-casey-anthony-082009,0,1115498.story

    ….About 30 minutes later, the three emerged, appearing calm.George Anthony said he received a call from his daughter’s defense attorney, Jose Baez, about the press conference and photos of the wooded area back in November – a month before the remains were found.

    There was a misunderstanding and everything had been resolved, Anthony said.

    Neither Anthony nor NeJame would say would the misunderstanding was about.

    Lol, see, I told you they read here..

    Sorry Kleat and all………I didn’t post the link….but here goes: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/orl-bk-casey-anthony-082009,0,1115498.story

  38. westsidehudson says:

    I found the original wording about the press conferance on scaredmonkeys. This is why George and Baez were in a tailspin, I suppose

    NeJame, Miller To Reveal All In Anthony Case
    Thursday, August 20, 2009 11:02:19 AM

    Reported ByJacqueline Fell

    ORLANDO — The former attorney for the Anthony family is revealing more about what he knows in the Casey Anthony case.

    Attorney Mark NeJame will hold a press conference at his office Thursday at 2 p.m.

  39. Granmomma says:

    #32 – Thanks…..I understand now

  40. ChicagoJudy says:

    I’ve never posted here before. I’ve been reading your posts for the past two days. You guys are great! Thanks for all your hard work and dedication that helps all of us who don’t have the time or the smarts to do it. Blink.. you’re amazing.

  41. ChicagoJudy says:

    Why are the A’s able to get away with the stuff that they do? For example, barging into a news conference.

    from the Orlando Sentinel…
    “Jose Baez’s spokeswoman, Marti Mackenzie, said the defense team did contact George Anthony and his attorney about the news conference.

    He and the defense team felt the press conference and the release of the photos were improper,” she said. The Anthonys may want to let their opinion be known, she said.”

    I thought this whole case was the State of Florida vs Casey Marie Anthony … NOT the whole freaking A family!! I wish someone would muzzle them until after the trial — if there is one.

  42. loca says:

    MARKS ON TALKING TO HLN AND IT APPEARS THAT CASEYS LAWYER GAVE SOME WRONG INFO TO GEORGE AND HE WAS CONFUSED AND ANGRY
    BOZO IS A TROUBLE MAKER!!

  43. westsidehudson says:

    conference…I hate when I spell obvious words incorrectly

  44. truthiness says:

    Sheesh, come on and confess already!

  45. loca says:

    this email was from Mark to me regarding why he withdrew from the anthonys as their lawyer. I only put part of the email here that may be of interest to you all.

    Thank you for your very kind and thoughtful words. They are very much appreciated.

    The entire Anthony case is such a tragedy on so many levels. In some ways the death of this innocent little girl has caused her to be forgotten with all off the surrounding drama and theatrics. On the other hand though, Caylee is kept alive in the public’s mind by these same distractions. It’s all such a tragedy.

    I withdrew from the case because I felt it was the best and right thing to do. Although I have sympathy for George and Cindy for the loss of Caylee, I refused to be a part of anything that would assist Casey.

  46. Jan says:

    All I can add is … the more the elder Anthonys show their behinds in public, the stronger Lyon’s case conceivably grows for saving Casey from the death penalty. Stated another way … George and Cindy could potentially be introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Mitigating Circumstance in the penalty phase when it comes time for Ms. Lyon to explain to the jury why Casey became who she is.

  47. Midwest MOM says:

    I WANT to see the documents! At least the correspondence between the police and TES/Tim Miller. I don’t get all the high fives and yahoos. Tim is a business man, whether TES is a non for profit organization or not, the rules should still apply.

    I agree if they are relevant, no prob, it is far too broad now.
    B

  48. Snowy says:

    Isn’t there some legal line drawn in the sand somewhere between Team Conway and Team Baez? Team Baez alerts Team Conway about a possible improper press conference in hopes Team Conway will put a stop to it? And George worried about Nejame divulging secrets? Is Team Conway privy to those most precious secrets? And George did seem to come in on cue….maybe more effective if Cindy had made the same entrance? IMO
