BREAKING NEWS
Orlando, Fl– In the recent depositions by the State Attorneys Office in the case against Casey Anthony one common exhibit was noted in each deposition of George, Lee and Cindy Anthony.
A cropped version of a photo of Caylee wearing the tshirt that is believed recovered with her remains.
All 3 Anthony’s claimed to not have seen this picture before previously, although without being prompted, Lee noted the photo was cropped.
How then, did it get in the hands of The Globe? Could this be the evidence removed from the Anthony home that Jose Baez tells Cindy Anthony to “Zip It” during her testimony and objects to information he considered sealed by the judge?
This edition of the Globe was released October 8, 2008. Six days before Casey Anthony was indicted for murder and remanded to jail without bond.
THE SALE OF THIS PHOTO PRE-DATES THE RECOVERY OF CAYLEE MARIE ANTHONY FROM THE WOODS OFF SUBURBAN DRIVE.
One could make the leap that the person selling it would have had knowledge of what she was wearing when 34 month old Caylee Marie met her tragic end.
(EDITORS NOTE: Don’t even try the picture was sold at the yardsale with the clothes and laundry bag– PUHLEASE..)

OH LAWD!!!! WFTV has pics from the cruise. Seems Lee and Mallory were along for the ride as well.
http://www.wftv.com/slideshow/news/21353061/detail.html
Check em out. Is that a Diamond stud in George’s ear? What is he pulling a Jon Gosselin and sportin the bling? Never seen that until now, does he wear that always? I will leave the other snarkies in my head…although I have LOTS!!!!!
Sal-
You did it. Write this date down. I am Speechless.
B
dating???!! Oh NO!!! Never suggested anything of THAT sort!!! NEVER that… JW was everywhere back then, easy for anyone to run into her.
I pulled the original photo from the Globe into Photoshop 5 earlier and played around the saturation, inversed the colors, etc to see what I could make out of the background. I only have Photoshop 5 and 6 (6 not loaded though) from my old imaging days (before kids), so don’t know if there are any newer Photoshop tools added to later versions that may do better.
If anyone else has a newer version of Photoshop (or just wants to play around with the photo) to see what they come up with, please do and let me know what you find. But after changing the curves for the RGB graphs, I was able to lighten the background only up quite a bit and then shift some of the color overlays. What I swear I saw in the background was either Casey’s room or within the Anthony home somewhere, because I swear I can gradually make out photo picture frames on the wall. The lighter thing to the left of Casey behind her which many speculated was the Winnie the Pooh blanket (still might be on the right side, I don’t know) appears to be the Anthony living room couch with the picture frames in the background. It’s anyone’s guess really, because I still can’t totally make out the complete background in the upper right where all the text is, but I swear til the day is long I can see a picture frame holding what looks to be a larger photo of Casey herself there … similar to her HS Senior Pic.
My eyes may be deceiving me of course, so please feel free to do whatever research y’all want on your own. Photoshop is amazingly powerful for these kinds of things, but my eyes are seeing double after being on the computer (instead of studying) all day today so any help would be much appreciated. There is definitely a photo of someone though hanging on the wall behind Casey in that photo though. Who though is anyone’s guess. At first I thought it looked a lot like Casey but now I really don’t know … a guy maybe? Lee? Wish I had more time to investigate this but sadly, right now I don’t.
If anyone else checks, please let me know what you find. Right now though, from what I can see, I’m leaning seriously toward that pic having been taken in the Anthony living room, Casey’s bedroom, or Caylee’s bedroom. If that’s true, would this basically be a sinking ship for the Ant’s deceiving ways? Would love to stay and chat longer, but I have class in a little while and no studying has gotten done all day yet so I must be going … hoping to possibly be back tonight though after if I can stay awake.
… and zip drives were not USB– ‘THAT” old!!
HEY BLINK…I GOTTA CALL YOU OUT ON A “WACKADOODLE ALERT”!
PLEASE EXPLAIN:
1) YOU STATE :” A cropped version of a photo of CAYLEE wearing the tshirt it is (sic) believed recovered with her remains”….
Er boy- not what it says, interpretation.
Q: WHERE IS THAT SPECIFIC PHOTO NOTED ON THE “CRIME SITE REMAINS LIST”? …IN FACT , THERE IS NO MENTION OF A “DESTROYED CROPPED PHOTO OF CAYLEE WEARING THE PINK SHIRT” LISTED ON THE EVIDENCE LIST..HOW WOULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT?..
Be honest, and I am asking respectfully- is this a legitimate question?
2) RICARDO SOLD MANY PHOTOS TO THE GLOBE IN THE SUMMER OF 2008… BOTH JOHN ALLEN AND YURI MELICH CONFRONTED RICARDO ABOUT SELLING HIS PHOTOS TO THE GLOBE –AFTER THEY FOUND OUT— WHEN THEY HAD COPIED HIS COMPUTER CONTENTS… ( LISTEN TO THE JOHN/ ALLEN YURI MELICH INTERVIEWS)..
SOMEONE ( OTHER THAN CASEY ) TOOK THAT PHOTO OF CASEY HOLDING CAYLEE IN THE PINK SHIRT…
Q: SO, COULD THAT PHOTO BE ONE OF THE PHOTOS THAT RICARDO TOOK AND THEN EVENTUALLY SOLD TO THE GLOBE?..(AFTER ALL, L.E. COPIED EVERYTING ON RICARDOS COMPUTER..I PERSONALLY BELIEVE THAT THE ORIGINAL PHOTO WAS RICARDOS AND THAT HE SOLD IT DIRECTLY TO THE GLOBE)..
3) YOU MAKE THE CLAIM THAT CASEY ( BEFORE SHE WAS ARRESTED) PURPOSELLY SOLD THAT PHOTO ( THE PINK SHIRT THAT SHE MURDERED HER DAUGHTER IN ) TO THE GLOBE…
NO. I STATE MY OPINION, and that is my belief.
Q: WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD CASEY ( BEFORE SHE WAS CHARGED ) DELIBERATELY CHOOSE THAT SPECIFIC PHOTO ( FROM THE HUNDREDS THAT SHE HAD TO PICK FROM)?…. ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT CASEY ( WAS INSANE ENOUGH ) TO WANT TO DIRECTLY TIE HERSELF– AND HER DAUGHTER– TO THE PINK SHIRT– AND HENCE TO THE CRIME SCENE?? WAS THAT TO INSURE THAT SHE WOULD BE CHARGED WITH FIRST DEGREE MURDER (IF THE BODY WAS EVER FOUND)??..
Asked and Answered in previous comments
I WOULD MORE LIKELY THINK THAT WHEN THAT PHOTO WAS PUBLISHED, CASEY PROBABLY STARTED TO HYPERVENTILATE WHILE POSTING OTHER ARTICLES ( ABOUT HERSELF) IN HER “MEDIA COVERAGE SCRAPBOOK”??..
A “SMART KIDDIE-KILLER” MORE LIKELY WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY DESTROYED THE ONE PHOTO –THE ONE PHOTO–THAT DIRECTLY LINKS BOTH SHE AND HER DAUGHTER TO THE PINK SHIRT– AND, HENCE TO THE CRIME SCENE…UNLESS, OF COURSE YOU REALLY ARE SUGGESTING THAT CASEY SOLD THAT SPECIFIC PHOTO TO THE GLOBE ( BEFORE SHE WAS ARRESTED ) TO FURTHER IMPLICATE AND INCRIMINATE HERSELF???
THAT PHOTO ONLY BECAME RELEVANT–THE MOMENT THAT L.E. FOUND THE BODY-BECAUSE IT BECOME THE DIRECT EVIDENCE THAT LINKED BOTH CASEY AND CAYLEE TO THE PINK SHIRT ,AND ,ULTIMATELLY TO THE CRIME SCENE.
Relevant to whom? That is speculation. For someone to sell that specific photo over hundreds of others, for it to make the cover, you dont find compelling?
ALSO, JUST BECAUSE RICARDO TOOK THE PHOTO WHEN THEY WERE DATING ( 2-3 MONTHS PRIOR OR POSSIBLY ON JUNE 9TH?) DOES NOT MEAN THAT HE WILL BE IMPLICATED IN THE MURDER….
WHAT?
IT IS MY OPINION THAT THE PHOTO OF CAYLEE, WEARING THE PINK SHIRT, ORIGINATED FROM RICARDO MORALES ( OR ANYONE OTHER THAN CASEY ANTNONY )..WE WILL SEE…
I THINK YOU HAVE GOT SOME “SPLAINING” TO DO…IVOIRE
Respectfully, I would appreciate if you would stop the yelling, and read other people’s comments that cover the subject before you call me out- fair?
B
Blink, in reference to kleat’s #48: speaking of bugging the house, do you think it is possible, that after the initial jail videos, that police could have obtained, or in fact, did obtain, warrants to have the Anthony home phone tapped? If not, in your opinion, do you think they contemplated it?
They did before the jail videos, imo.
B
Justice 23-
I am going to hold onto your last 2 comments for reasons I know you will understand. I am going to email Kleat, as I know she has the capabilities your referencing. It is her thing.
With her permission, can I email you with her product of that request?
B
“There is zero doubt in my mind if this photo can be tied to Casey or anyone in that family it will be huge.”
Do you think the right people in law enforcement will read this thread & take your theory seriously? Or are they already aware of the importance of the photo?
They are and they have.
B
Kleat, LOL
You’re starting to help me date myself, hee hee hee. I’m not super young anymore, but I’m not what I’d consider “old” either, although my kids sure think so, LOL
Blink– you’ve got my number, girl!
Its in your bin
B
Blink….Someone….please help me understand the gas can and green truck theory.
I never heard anything else but the story GA told..
I have been reading this site for quite awhile and never have commented. I have learned alot of the case on here and found this is a great site to come to. Thank you, Blink, for that. I do have one big question regarding this shirt. Was this going to be Baez’s “AHA” Moment? Thank you in advance for any responses.
Welcome Goldie and thanks.
Yes. I keep seeing people saying “Nobody is that stupid to sell this photo”. This is the oldest excuse in the book. That’s exactly why they thought they could. Remember the case of the crime novelist that murdered his wife and wrote about it previous to the murder albeit fictionally? His defense was why the H would I commit a murder exactly how I wrote, I would be the first suspect? Same theory.
B
Sure Blink .. no problem .. whatever it takes. I just want the truth and I think the truth is seriously somewhere in that photo.
ok, it’s a plan. Tell Mr. Justice you did a good job today and to not be irritated but to give his gal a forehead smooch.
B
I said this on Mr Marinade’s blog – but I think these two sites are totally compatible and complimentary. Dave is on the ground. The videos give a local perspective that is invaluable. Plus he is endlessly entertaining. He can get a little cranky (not in a bad way – I would say this to his face) so make sure you observe his terms and rules. I don’t blame anyone who takes the time and effort to manage a blog to put their own tone to it at all. If anyone here was hurt by any comments – just remember how we would all defend Blink (and I have in another case much to my big awakening to the world of crime blog wars). My opinion – because both of these blogs have taken the high road – and you all know what I mean – we should support one another and be happy that there are advocates for these kids when others that should do it – won’t. Not to mention I love the commenters that are drawn to this type of blog and I love the articles written by the bloggers.
Lily-
your a cherished reader, poster and friend.
Good thoughts.
B
Back later guys! Keep sleuthing!
If Caylee Marie Anthony is trademarked then how is it possible for anyone other than an Anthony sell this pic to the Globe?
Just for a point of reference between the Globe photo and early 2008 photo’s of Caylee and her mother, similar hair style, Caylee with the eye boo-boo:
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/1678887/Casey-Anthony-Facebook-Myspace-Photobucket-Photos
Blink, you are a stand up chick and I love ya! Thanks for your kind words above! (although, my kids tease me that I am remedial and used to ride the short bus!)
Nice job too you and Justice23, this is very exciting!
Don’t we all want something to do Casey in so badly? Even with boatloads of circumstantial evidence it still doesn’t seem like enough without that one piece of forensic evidence ‘fingerprints’ etc. I want to shut up the Anthony’s covers-ups, finger pointing, framing others, their nastines & constant lying. I want an end to the defenses never ending motions & lame stradegies once & for all. I wish I could fast forward to 1 1/2 yrs from today, by then this all should be over with…please let it be done by that time!
I thought at one time that the Simon Barrett guy at bloggernews had the goods against Casey, turns out he didn’t. I really hope this photo turns into something incriminating for Casey & the defense so we end this mortifying circus, the right person is punished & we have closure & justice for Caylee once & for all. I know I won’t be able to completely rest until it’s done & the Anthony’s fade away into darkness.
I want Cindy george & Lee put in their place & punished almost as badly as Casey. If Casey gets her just punishment so do the Anthonys & I for one will get immense satisfaction from it. I might sound mean like one of the petty name callers you all talk about but they brought the hatred upon themselves for reasons I don’t have to explain to most of you. Let’s get this done & over please Judge Strickland. Why can’t he minimize these pointless motions that the defense knows he’ll shoot down anyway. can’t he start to get the ball rolling & get both trials on done & over with. seems at times he’s letting the defense walk all over him, or maybe in my ignorance I believe the Judge should wield at least some power & authority to do so.
Nice find, Justice 23 and Blink.
However, and this has probably been mentioned earlier because I am nothing more than Captain Obvious sometimes, but the photo would have much greater value after the remains were found than before.
I guess it is possible KC convinced Jose to sell that particular photo because it showed how much fun they had together. Jose, of course, would not know the picture was of Caylee in her death shroud.
Thanks JWG, but it is assumptive on all our parts that those remains were not slated to be found earlier, given all the activity at the location beginning early August. Also, the truth is we don’t know what “off the record” dialog occurred. I will tell you that issue of “The Globe” is on ebay starting at $10 a bid. Also, we don’t know if that was used as a proffer of sorts for other exclusives or issues. I agree that absent further conversations with the The Globe there is the infinatismal microscopic, atom-sized possibility it is a co ink y dink. But I also believe there WILL be further conversations with the GLOBE toot sweet.
Nice to see you 2 days in a row, sir.
B
The link below shows several photos of Caylee with injuries beneath both of her eyes, at different times, of course. One of the photos seems to depict her with the same mark and wearing a pink shirt. Would this be the same pink t-shirt? Her bangs are shorter in this pic, as well. Just curious. The photo isn’t that good.
http://www.cayleedaily.com/2009/08/pictures-of-caylee/
Lots to digest here, thanks again, Justice!
stepping down from the loft to comment:
that photo yall are talking about of little caylee had to have been of recent as last year because of the size its niether to big or too small . so its right around the time she went missing that the picture was taken correct?
Sorry for the bla bla bla just sort of thinking out loud how I wish all of casey’s trials would move along smoothly & to the conclusion I feel is right, guilty. I’m impatient but no one cares about me, my opinion means nothing to the judicial system, just that I find the pace maddening at times, especially in regards to all charges & upcoming trials against Casey. Time for me to step away from it again, I need another long break starting now. Thanks for not deleting me Blink you are the best & have the most informative & mature website dedicated to crime, especially Caylee Anthony…you’ve treated her & this case with the utmost respect…you’re #1..a class act keep up the good work~!
I would like to scream!!!
sorry silent, you know the rules, deleted the rest.
Now go get some.
B
why was Jose Baez with his smirk present at this depo? he is not representing Cindy&George. this man is really nauseating to me and I wish he would stop making his presence known to the media.I don’t think he had a right to be present at these depos none what so ever.I think he was there for the sole purpose to make sure The Anthonys did not let anything slip,like Cindy almost did.

Who took these pictures? I’m comparing the Globe photo to pictures #2 and #3. Could these have been taken the very same day? And where?
They are cropped from the same photo Gavi.
B
It looks like Caylee has a BLACKEYE in that photo!
Comment by justice23
trenton ducketts father used that term ..team duckett… and he was a close friend of the anthonys. they were at a thingie that was done recently for him.
any connection?
Just going out on a limb here and asking, could these be cigarette burns?

Justice
” I don’t know the exact website, but IIRC, the name of the group was called, “Team Caylee”
Thanks. You are FULL of info today! Either that post wasn’t up earlier, or I missed it, it was moving fast. Blink probably has motion sickness, lol .
I think Richard Grund hired a PI to find a connection of that effort to the Anthonys. I wonder if that was true or confirmed.
#206_ According to Blink , you and Kleat will be involved in intrigue to uncover more…hmm, good luck. Can I dub you “TheBlinx”…sounds undercover.
lol, software capability issue only-
B
Blink – #218:
Why would you think the remains were, possibly, slated to be found earlier?
I’m not following.
If they were found earlier, by a tip off within the Anthony clan – NO ONE would have come forward with the discovery, she would have been disposed of earlier – and would have never been found to the public.
So – they only other route I can think of (that you may be heading) – is that Casey wanted her remains found – with the shirt on. Is this what you are thinking?
I cannot IMAGINE Casey would EVER want those remains found. She wanted her daughter gone…and her freedom in TACT.
I’m confused.
Can you explain further?
Thank you much.
Found when she was in the klink, so they could say it was not her.
B
Blink, I wonder if the “iron on letters” and the “shirt collar” that was found with the remains match that in the photo. Perhaps “only” a pink shirt collar and letters were thrown in the bag to point a finger at whomever took that photo.
I’m going back to listen to Tony Lazarro’s interviews again.
#201: Sal! loved the link, many thanks….anybody notice just how “natural” Cindy and George look “behind” bars? (okay, the vollyball net but the look is similiar!). Anyhow, it’s interesting that the “family” managed to reconnect and relax….on the week into the weekend of the 48 hour program; bet they needed another cruise after the waves of backlash!
Blink: Question:
I am assuming you have a very proficient running log of everything going on. When the trial starts and either team is debating ( defense vs. SA) and you see something that is being left out or overlooked or have something major to add, will you or can you notify anyone at the SA office and point it out so it doesn’t slip on by?
I expect the SA to be completely ready for trial, if it actually goes to trial. I am not sure if you have had the opportunity to watch Linda and her team, but Linda especially is flawless and cool as a cucumber.

Seven-year-old Florida girl vanishes walking home from school! Help find Somer Thompson! <—- from Nancy Grace site
What is it about Florida and children going missing in this state? It’s almost becoming an epidemic!
In your opinions, do you all think that Casey sold that photo to the Globe for the SOLE purpose of financial means, or was it more, possibly as a “taunt”, basically saying, “here it is, I outsmarted you, now come and get me if you can”?
Casey and the Globe Photo
I know we have been focusing on little Caylee in the photo,
but I think it it important to look at the Mom. I don’t mean to start any wild speculation here, but I am observing what looks like bruise marks on the Mom’s neck/throat. Her left eye, which is partially closed, looks swollen.
JMO, this photo was taken in June 2008, after an altercation with a family member, but just before the death of little Caylee. Both hairstyles and lengths are consistent with that time.
#186, WestSide: Thanks so much for the page no! I’ve not had the time (or stamina) to dig into Lee’s deposition. I’ve gotten halfway through Cindy’s. Reading their testimony is not for the faint of heart.
Thanks again, West, & for your explanation about Amy at first being soft on the stolen checks. I always enjoy your astute posts, West.
~Marcy.
re: $14,000 mentioned in CA’s transcript pg 412: I believe this was the amount mentioned in a very early interview that KC had said to … Amy? …Tony? somebody? that she had that amount – $14,000 – in a bank account, savings account, to put as a down-payment on a house.
(part of her very extensive lie about the possibility of moving, buying, etc.)
Sorry just rambling here, maybe someone else remembers.
Also: even if the photo above was taken by Ricardo Morales, it is possible that it was taken on KC’s camera.
#191, Justice: Thank you for giving me your LE friend’s opinion on Casey’s case. What Cindy & others seem to forget when they cry that Casey is being railroaded & LE had their sights on her from the very beginning is that LE has frequently dealt with mothers who commit filicide. None of the detectives involved in investigating the disappearance/death of little Caylee was inexperienced. They probably knew within 2 minutes of speaking with Casey that she killed her own daughter.
Detectives also are exceptionally keen in observing suspects during interviews. In other words, the body language can be just as important as the words spoken. Detective Melich & the others must have had their radar jumping off the charts when they first spoke to Casey!
~m
This is OT, but in the http://www.wftv.com/slideshow/news/21353061/detail.html
picture 2, George has a huge mark on his left shoulder that looks very much like a tatoo. He said in his depo that he wasn’t a tatoo guy and in earlier photos, such as #14 in http://www.docstoc.com/docs/1678887/Casey-Anthony-Facebook-Myspace-Photobucket-Photos
there is no such mark. Could someone with younger eyes take a look and let me know what you think? Thanks.
#227_Marcy
Only my opinion, you may come away with something different.
But he definitely begins to utter “check”, and switches gears, you’ll see. And you’re welcome.
Another brilliant [ha!] thought that just flew into my mind: In Cindy’s depo, she is asked if she’d had Dominic Casey dig around to verify Casey’s claims of working. Cindy responded that she had not asked Dom to do so.
Wouldn’t you want to address that right away if you hired a PI? Then you could shove it in the detectives’ faces, saying “See, Casey was too working. Now leave my precious daughter alone.”
My guess is Cindy would never want any PI poking around into Casey’s life. She would be afraid what might be found.
Waddya think?

I so agree with you.
Blink – I really like this site, as well as Marinade Dave’s. Really fantastic! I’m a lurker, and enjoying the deep, smart, and sometimes witty repartee amongst you all, so maybe my request/comment is rather cheeky. Not a criticism at all, but rather a meek request: Could you be a little more precise with your comments? Or, are you answering cryptically as some sort of schtick to keep us guessing? ** Ugh! I hate to ask this question, it seems so ungrateful, but please don’t take it that way! Thanks!
Thanks Libby, most times it is purposefull. I am all about the brilliance of the posters here that let me hang out with them and developing the dialog to “point B”. Also, in fairness, I am a stickler about folks not reading aticles and comments and asking questions out of respect for some of the diligence given by the posters here.
No schtick, but your astute that sometimes I give only what I can, and others I am appreciating the minds and skills of others.
B
Blink and blinksters,
Once again, I cannot contribute anything from a crime solving standpoint like many of you can and do so willingly. All of my background is educational from elementary principal, to college professor to administrator of education at a psychiatric day treatment center. It is so hard though to read and read and not post in complete and utter frustration at the antics of this family. On and on it is so totally unbelievable the way they posture themselves like the rest of the universe is obliviously stupid. All that to say…if one knows anything about liars of any type they usually overtell, say too much, if you will. I think we can all agree that each of the players in this real life drama do exactly that…over and over. Guilty, guilty, guilty of all charges imo beyond any shred of doubt. All of you wonderful minds in Blinkland, please practice some deep breathing exercises as you continue to skillfully and relentlessly pursue justice for Caylee. There are many of us out here that appreciate your efforts and hard work.
Your support IS contribution gigi, and thank you for your commitment to education.
B
How do the Anthonys sleep at night??? How can George and Cindy look at each other in the EYE. NOTHING I mean NOTHING is real to them anymore. Maybe they are reaching for the insanity plea when it comes time for them to face the music. That is all I am going to say.
I just logged back on to Blink and have lot of reading to do, again.
Thanks for the reply Blink. I am an avid, almost compulsive reader, so believe me, I’m plowing through every bit of the documents as they are made public. As a writer, maybe I’m too anal about clarity and precision. I’ll take a chill pill and continue to love your site! Thanks!
Well I hope then you are cutting me slack on the difference between a piece I write, and the follow up comments. If there is something incomprehensive in a piece, I welcome the feedback.
B
Oh one more thing – so basically Blink, I get that you’re not responding in riddles like someone else we all know! (hint: in jail, in Orlando, getting fatter, etc.) LOL!
Regarding the mark on George’s shoulder, it looks like a bruise to me.
Sal, I think it may be a tat- where’s he getting the peck bruise like that?
I think he has recovered from the Henkel 500, where he placed first in the precision duct tape placement on a circular surface category. ( YOU KNEW IT.. Say like Will Ferrell in Old School)
B
