Casey was declared indigent when originally arrested. She claimed a small amount of money and a debt, then she became wealthy enough for what she’s paid back to Amy, the bank, Baez, Lyon and costs, maybe others, she must owe Dominic Casey something, as well as others including experts. Maybe there’s a charity funnel into her cell.
I’m sick of Casey. I’m sick of Baez. I’m sick of Cindy and George and Conway. Does their bullchit EVER end? Now we will have to be irritated to death to hear the whining and crying about how expensive it is and let’s not forget that because she’s “unpopular” it makes it more expensive and don’t ask any hard questions about where the money (before she became indigent) came from or what it has paid for, and God forbid, don’t pick on them by asking for documentation.
All of them are like a pesky mosquito that just keeps buzzing around your ear, FTLOG I can’t wait until they are all squashed.
If the taxpayers are going to have to pick up the tab on Casey Anthony case I wonder if any income taxes were paid on monies earned, if any dependent were claimed and/or extensions filed? I hear IRS always want their monies. Just a thought, what do ya think?
Just curious, how does a helicopter trip to the beach and bare a$$ swimming get billed on the monthly statement? Is there a special legal category for such billable hrs?
It falls under the Gelatinous Glute Fund. Alot of cracks in that concept, however.

Kleat I’m sorry…..I meant the dollars owed for court, arrest , etc. It was someone between $5,000 & $6,000. If it is not paid, then the money will be taken from her commissary account when a deposit is made.
Blink or anyone, have you seen a copy of Friday’s filed ‘Application for Criminal Indigent Status’ for Casey?
I would like to compare the document to the same filed by Casey on July 17th, 2008 in which Casey applied for ‘appointment of the public defender’ vs ‘I have a private attorney…’.
Casey also declared:
1. I have 1 dependents.
2. I have a take homeincome of $1400.00 (X) bi-weekly
3. I have other income — NO
4. I have other assets — NO (including no equity in motor vehicles/boats/other tangible property)
(we know that she did have tangible property worth a couple hundred thousand dollars– did she realize it at this date? Probably not but it didn’t take her long to scoop the goods from the house, did it?)
5. I have a total amount of liabilities and debts in the amount of $600.00 (handwritten looks like “mostly exps”)
6. I receive (other low income type assistance) — NO
7. Question of bail– (no answers provided)
The application includes the following declaration signed by the applicant:
“A person who knowingly provides false information to the clerk or the court in seeking a determination of status under s 27.52. F.S. commits a misdemenour of the first degree punishable as provided in s 775.082 F.S. or s 776.083 F.S. I attest that the information I have provided on this Application is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge.”
Signed 17 day of Jl, 2008 (Casey does not provide an address or phone number in the spaces provided, nor does she fill in a DL or ID Number.
CLERK’S DETERMINATION
Casey was found to be ‘Indigent’
Public defender appointed in the above listed case– 2008cf10925
Casey turned from ‘Indigent’ with public defender as “FILED IN OPEN COURT THIS 17 DAY OF JULY, 2008″ “DOCKETED BY: F. ACOSTA”
Within 17 hours, Casey was no longer indigent, she had retained Baez– how did he know that Casey had resources to sell? If she was indigent, why did he take this case in such short order?
Will be interesting to compare the application filed on Friday for the capital case, and see what has changed.
Can Casey be held accountable for the misdemenour of representing a dependent? Will Casey repeat that she has a dependent or will she officially recognize that her daughter is no longer alive, as Cindy, George and Lee all declared in their State depositions? There is also the issue of the $2800.00 per month income declared on the form– could Baez have been banking on that when he (one would expect) ask Casey ‘show me the money’?
(we should then see if this ‘Caylee is still alive’ is part of the defense once that doc. is made public)
OH– and can Casey now claim the 10 % ‘owed’ to Leonard Padilla, for surety on her bond that he pulled as a liability?
That could be interesting.
(possible mistake on the statutes– both might be 775, sorry the second set of numbers was written over by Casey as she dated the form, I read it as a 6 not 5.)
Innocent Bystander, no worries, the $600.00 bill was taken care of by room service, at which point Todd goes thumbs up ‘Ni—-ice!!!”
Actually it was taken care of by “Underhill”, who would have been a client. Yep. It is that bad.
B
Yep… Room 236!! Thanks Blink– I couldn’t catch the name of the ‘bill-ee’!
Todd to his buddy,”Does this Breitling make my butt look big?”
lol
B
Blink, off topic, except for Todd’s innocent client, but to Orlando, Casey’s activities/records etc, what might have been Casey’s connection to the area of Orlando between Semoran/436 and Goldenrod, in the area of Old Cheney Hwy and around N. Forsythe? (it’s just below E. Colonial)
The Google maps have street view in that area, it appears to be an older area, smaller homes, duplexes. It appears that Casey may have frequented, or visited someone in that area.
This is well south of Full Sail, it’s not near anyone that Ricardo knew of, and it’s west of Valencia.
For some reason, this was a question, when a mapping program was shown to Ricardo– asked if he knew anyone in that area.
I’m just glad Baez wasn’t in this video, that’s all I can say.
Could have been worse, could have been George and Cindy!
I hear on the net that there is new evidence against tot mom that the judge will not allow for 30 days and Nancy Grace stated she had never heard of this being done before. Interesting….
BOMBSHELL!!! “Investigating the Underhill’s”
Waiter: Excuse me, Señor. You are a member of the club?
Fletch: No, I’m not, I’m with the Underhills.
Waiter: They already left, Señor.
Fletch: It’s all right, they’ll be back. He went out for his urinalysis.
Waiter: Would you like some drinks, Señor, while you wait? I will put it on the Underhills’ bill.
Fletch: Yes, very good. I’ll have a Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich and… a steak sandwich, please.
——————-
NOW, who was staying with the Macaluso boys in Mexico, in Room 262. Inside joke, or joke on a client– who knows.
Kleat-
“Can Casey be held accountable for the misdemenour of representing a dependent?”
You can declare one dependent, that being yourself, for tax purposes. Less money is withheld.
But clearly, she lied about having any income at all, as well as lying about having a job. Which she had already admitted to detectives prior to filling out this form. But it is only a misdemeanor, so I don’t know that the state will go after this. I wonder if it is grounds for Baez to quit. though. if he wanted to?
Spoiler alert: Of course, Toddy owned or owns the helicopter and the bikini was probably running the video. The Underhills to this date, remain unaware.
BS (aka BombShell) Backgrounder:
Gail Stanwyk: I didn’t know you knew the Underhills.
Fletch: Yeah, well, I saved his life during the war.
Gail Stanwyk: You were in the war?
Fletch: No, he was. I got him out.
—–
Gail Stanwyk: I’m very flattered, but I’m also very married. You are trying to hit on me, aren’t you?
Fletch: How did you guess? I’m such a heel. I don’t know what came over me.
Gail Stanwyk: If I had a nickel for every one of Todd’s flyboy buddies who tried to pick me up, I’d be a rich woman.
Fletch: You are a rich woman.
Gail Stanwyk: See what I mean?
Blink, you WILL let us know if you receive demands to block your video. Don’t forget to keep a copy in your drawer as this will probably disappear from YouTube quickly. So far, searching YouTube for Macaluso reveals nothing except the Baez office drinking room pressers.
“Mooooon River!” “Niii—ce!!”
BS!! there’s a theme running through it.
Is the helicopter a Bell Jet Ranger 20-6, the same type used by Macaluso for accident investigation, accident reconstruction, aerial photography and areal vediography? (IE: flying with doors off too)
Front doors open in the Mexico video, door open is behind the cockpit area, says N-26. Is this the number of the Mac and Ass’ocs Bell Jet Ranger?
MJ @ #2 – I am so with you on sick and tired of the whole bunch. Why can’t they just DISAPPEAR? They’re like a wad of gum stuck on the bottom of your shoe, or better yet the stuff that will likely end up on the bottom of your shoe when you go the chicken house to gather the eggs.
Blink @ #4 – Gelatinous glute fund, #11 with suz and Kleat @ #20 – Side-splitting funny.
Bluewillow @ #13 – We must thank God for small favors too.
#12 Kleat
This address appears to be in the vicinity of where you described. Didn’t Casey visit him or his mom about the time that Caylee ‘disappeared’?
Chris Stutz Perez Street, Orlando, FL 32825
PS. Love the Fletch reference. BTW does the bikini (#17) have anything to do with Baez and his former business?
ada, thanks! This ref was from the early LE audio interview of Ricardo. They questioned this quickly and didn’t push it. On to a new subject, including the Lee sleepwalking and looking down on Casey in her sleep. When I looked at the Google map, looking for the streets between Goldenrod and Semoran, one business popped out, I can’t remember at the moment, what interview it came up in, but I know it did– “Popeye’s”.
JWG’s newest article (today) at Val’s place, showed a gif with a little saying downloaded and then posted to her PB acccount, ref to a ‘Zombie’. Was this on her mind, going through motions and not feeling anything, like a Zombie, or a sleepwalker.
If Casey did write the ‘entry’ that JWG speculates as a possibility, then this girl seems to have been in trouble for a long time and no one listened.
N-iiice tax write off too, using the firm’s helicopter to hop the border for a Corona and dip in the surf on a ‘workday’. Wonder what other goodies returned with them, besides empties?
Now let’s just keep this in mind, if these lawyers she has obtained are PRO BONO they knowingly knew Casey didn’t have any money for payment for services. They have already recieved a totaling 112,000 why did they take any payment if this was a PRO BONO case?
this is an area of where some judge needs to explain the these lawyers when people use the word PRO BONO…. SEND THIS TO THEM AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

This problem of TM’s has been hard on his firm, it’s basically depleted of legal resources. On January 10, 2010, the firm had two Associates with Principal Attorney Todd Macaluso, plust a paralegal/PI.
The information is in cache at:
http://74.125.155.132/searchq=cache:8vEBIzbSfkgJ:www.macalusolawsd.com/TMA_Pg_Attorneys.html+Todd+and+Angela+Macaluso&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca&client=safari
The current page has a link here too, there are basically no attorneys left, with Todd Macaluso the only one listed and he’s out of action at this time.
Why would other attorneys leave? Why wouldn’t they keep up with the cases and workload, or take new cases, or is their work dependent upon advice from Todd Macaluso, something he is not allowed to do while in a state of suspension?
Current page: http://www.macalusolawsd.com/TMA_Pg_Attorneys.html
GRANDMOTHER OF 4, I think this will be cleared up. My bet is that Baez sold the idea to his connections right away, that there was millions to be made, he’d work up the media with help of family, they’d create the circus and all profit from the public exposure. Next, he got Linda K-B involved and she likes the media attention, will minimally help her book and puts her husband ‘behind Chinese Wall’ in the limelight fringes as well. Todd Macaluso would benefit if he wants to become famous ‘overnight’ in one fell swoop with Casey’s case, in the new-to-him. (check his firm’s website, he’s got posted, the ‘radio’ interview done last year as a famous lawyer, and he didn’t just talk about his past cases, he was promoting his venture into the criminal defense by commenting about his work with the Casey team. (he’s making hay off the Haiti disaster too, good on him for doing this humanitarian service, but he doesn’t miss a photo op to promote himself, does he)
Back to the payments to lawyers if they knew Casey was indigent. Note that they supplied an affidavit of ‘costs’. On Friday, we were confused about the total cost stated by Baez, but today, the OCC clerk’s site lists both affidavits for Baez and Lyon, were for ‘COSTS’.
They can still claim that they themselves, are working for free, but expect that someone will pay out-of-pocket expenses. Presumably, Baez’s fees include those for his firm’s lawyers too, or anyone working under Baez.
Now, what question I have, is what has the timing of the foreclosure of the parent’s home, have to do with Casey’s indigent application?
An early interview with Cindy, I recall had discussions about ‘wills’. Casey could have thought she was getting the home from the kernel of an idea (as she often did) that the home would be given to through her mother’s will. Presumably, they would want to help their daughter with a family to raise, whereas, with Lee, he was on his own. (ie: same as the Sunfire situation, Lee paid his parents for the car, Casey was to pay Lee back, but never did).
So, if something happened to Cindy and George (who’d have a claim on his wife’s estate), then Casey may have been the sole beneficiary via terms of the will(s). Cindy did talk about the will and provisions for a guardian of Caylee if something should happen to them and Casey both. (there was apparently no thought that far ahead).
Remember, the lawyer friend first involved with the Anthony’s when this happened, was the one who did their will(s) or guardian arrangements. It could be that this would have been updated once Cindy knew the child was not alive.
Blink– here’s a question. If there was a guardian arrangement for Caylee, pre- or post death certificate, would that become public knowledge, just as a will would become a document to be proved for an adult person?
It’s my understanding it never existed.

Casey Anthony defense: More than $100,000 in legal fees
New documents made public today; trial date set for May 2011
By Amy L. Edwards, Orlando Sentinel
11:20 a.m. EST, March 8, 2010
os-casey-anthony-defense-costs-20100308
A slew of new court filings in the first-degree murder case against Casey Anthony were made public today, and a judge set her trial date for May 2011.
In one of the motions, Casey Anthony claims two of her defense attorneys have incurred about $112,000 in fees, and now she’s asking a judge to declare her indigent for court costs and so the state will pay for her expenses.
In an affidavit signed last week, Casey Anthony said the estimated amount of fees for defense attorney Andrea Lyon, a professor at DePaul University in Chicago who is renowned for her work in death-penalty cases, is $22,500.
Casey Anthony said the fees for Kissimmee lawyer Jose Baez is $89,454.83.
In their motion, Lyon and Baez stated Casey Anthony doesn’t have sufficient funds to pay for the costs associated with her defense.
“The costs of defending this case have increased beyond anticipation as the case has become increasingly complex. Further, Miss Anthony has received no income during the time that she has been incarcerated,” the motion said. “In order to meet the unique standard of care required for a capital defense, Miss Anthony must be found indigent for costs.”
Lyon is representing Anthony pro bono and has not received any fees, the motion said.
The $22,500 paid to Lyon has been used directly to cover costs such as transcripts, travel and investigation.
For his part, Baez stated in the motion he’s “expended many hours ensuring that she have adequate and effective representation.”
“All of Miss Anthony’s resources are exhausted,” the motion said.
The costs are necessary and will go toward expert witnesses, investigative costs, travel, transcripts and depositions, the motion said.
Anthony’s defense is asking the court to declare her indigent, or in the alternative, partially indigent for costs.
Casey Anthony is accused of killing her 2-year-old daughter Caylee Marie Anthony in the summer of 2008. Caylee’s remains were found in December 2008 in woods a few blocks away from the home she shared with her family.
Other items recently filed the case:
• Prosecutors released two CDs of evidence to Casey Anthony’s defense team. One CD includes about 300 pages of documents. Another CD is related to Joy Wray, a Seminole County woman who has claimed to know information about the case.
• Several Orange County Sheriff’s Office investigators and deputies will be questioned under oath by Casey Anthony’s defense this week.
• Orange County Circuit Judge Stan Strickland signed an order setting Casey Anthony’s trial date for May 9, 2011.

Blink, thanks.
Chica, but no one has published any of Friday’s docs yet, including OS.
Kleat, my understandings about wills or power of attorney papers aren’t good unless they have been filed in the courts. learned this my self the hard way but once learned the documents were filed and things moved on as they should have.
#4…HAHA….ALOT of CRACKS, BLINK?
I posted this on the previous story, it’s a bit more relevant, except that it purportedly ‘proves’ what TM said, that Casey is innocent.
McIntyre’s proof of Judge Rodriguez withholding proof of innocence, etc, by sealing documents.
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/28245881/James-L-McIntyre-Correspondence-03052010
Just amazing… how come he does better for Casey than PI Dom Casey? Who paid this consulting firm?
Kleat,
Is this not also the person who posts at OS as Orlando East, Joe Schmo, Jack Johnson etc. etc?
morgyn, yeah, I”ve been told that– but now his emails are in the court’s hands. Let’s see what his continuing banter and misdirection bring him now!
http://www.clickorlando.com/video/22779543/index.html
Check out the docs that Mike DeForest got a hold of today– new defense motions to squash witness statements and party photos. Pizza or dead body, they want the pure speculation of nurse Cindy with decomp and pseudomonis and burned flesh experiences in her profession, ‘out’. Suppose they want George’s ‘speculations’ about the car smell out too.
Haventt had a chance to read in a couple of days. I like the comment “moon river”— Guys is that REALLY Macalousa’s naked booty? or something put together for utube.
How absolutey shocking the defense wants to quash Casey’s party pics – they are clear evidence that she was using resources to help find her daughter. *insert eye roll*
This defense motion to tag witness statements as hearsay says a lot about how explosive they know, in particular, Cindy’s statements are to Casey’s defense. Damning evidence. Desperate times, desperate measures. There’s no way they’re going to get this one by Judge Stan.
Thanks for posting, Kleat.
I asked this on another site..but you guys are the smartest…EVVERRR.
Does anyone remember when Ashton wanted Baez to disclose where the funding was coming from? Pauper to Princess?? Strickland had private meeting in chambers because Baez did not want it disclosed. Ashton ended up getting pretty po’d. I wonder if Ashton/Strickland somehow squashed Baez plans for making $$$$ and now the reason for the indigent motion.
now even if they dont want to show the parting pics, or others thoughts if she was good or bad. Tthe 911 is very important as it does relate to the car, smell, missing child, and of course death..
But there is so much more that will still be there…. like a place of business getting a tattoo while your child is missing that says beautiful life will be very dammnnnning.
The partying pictures of the missing time, will come into trial. The pre-missing time is what the defense is focussing on, isn’t it? The defense wants to stop a connection to Casey wanting a different life than she had, tied down to a baby growing with increasing demands, and about to be speaking full sentences soon.
Nothing wrong with the partying before Caylee went missing in itself, but the prosecution will want to connect the lifestyle to Casey’s wishes for more freedom as she continued the partying but without Caylee to worry about, once Caylee was gone by the evening of June 16th.
Blink you are awfully quiet, what are you up to?
Cindy and George, don’t know where you’re reading these days but did you see Tim Miller and Texas Equusearch found the body of a missing man. Damn good work if you care to read about it.
I just . . . I can’t . . . I . . . aaarrrrggghhhh!!!!!!!!! with Strickland agreeing that Casey is indigent, is that not going to set some kind of precedent? Like, won’t other Floridian murderers, in the future, expect the State to pay for big name lawyers to defend them? I HAVE TO BE missing something ~ obviously I don’t understand any of this. It just feels like the defense is calling the whole shebang and if Strickland doesn’t give them what they want they are going to go for a mistrial. So then what’s next? Will they demand that Strickland present Casey with a written and public apology proclaiming her innocent and maybe even a gold key to the city from the mayor and if he doesn’t they will ask for a mistrial? Surely to God there must be laws to prevent this? I’m sorry if I’m not making sense.
The new incomprehensible evidence released in the case today looks to me like a DND profile ladder. If you look up ABI Chromatogram profiler ladder you get websites about DNA profiling for different diseases that are genetic. I wonder if Caylee had some kind of defect or other STRANGE DNA sequence????? ANYONE?
clarification on the ‘party’ photos and what the defense wants tossed, go to MarinadeDave’s docstoc and he’s got the latest doc in support of the arguments, seems it’s all the party photos, before and during missing time.
Sorry, NoseyRosey, I’m just catching up and seeing your question now: What is eye rape?
Eye rape occurs when you see something so vile and hideous that you feel like your eyes have been raped because you witnessed it.
Bees knees, welcome to the criminal justice field…yourgetting a realistic dose as well as all Americans watching this, what really happens in our system. Realistically, she is indigent, and unfortunately its paperwork filed with the clerk and they really have no options but to allow her a defense. And Baez and company played it well…
#46 C. Boyle
I followed Kleat’s suggestion to check out Marinade Dave and found this.
“Measurements from chromatographs and DNA test results are a small part of discovery. A chromatograph is an instrument that separates substance mixtures, like gases, into identifiable components. No context is available to the charts and graphs. According to WESH, 9 of the 10 CDs “feature DNA charts and graphs with no explanation, and no new photos or documents.”
