    Only ugly people kill their children — how true, but then, we’re not talking about any kind of physical beauty. Ugly is within and IMO can translate to evil.
    Not all murderers are ugly (evil). Blink is so right, we are one chemical molecule away from doing wrong ourselves. May God have mercy on all of us.

  2. Mom3.0 says:

    Blink- the defense was ordered to give an itemized list of evidence to both the state and the judge by noon July 8 The list was to include any evidence the wished to inspect and the order in which they wanted to inspect it. It was to cover both days of inspection-

    I don’t know if what The defense did complies with Judge Perry’s order or not. I guess we will find out when he returns from vacation.

    well said.

  4. Thinker says:

    This part of the article sounds like the State is saying that the Defense did what they were supposed to do regarding the evidence they want to inspect.

    http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/os-casey-anthony-evidence-list-judge-20100708,0,2877534.story

    excerpt:
    “The notice of compliance was filed shortly before 11:30 a.m. It was filed by attorneys J. Cheney Mason and Jose Baez.
    The notice says the defense team met with prosecutors Monday and went through evidence property forms submitted by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. “The defense selected all items it wishes to inspect,” the document states.
    The documents requested are not public records, a spokesman for the State Attorney’s Office said Thursday.
    The prosecution and defense kept copies of the list of evidence to be inspected and “the defense is also providing a copy to this honorable court forthwith,” the notice says.”

  5. MJ says:

    Knock, knock……where is everybody? I know Blink has been busy with sweet Morgan and precious Kyron, prayers for some answers on both.

    It’s reassuring to see that Baez is consistent in his disrespect for authority and his disregard for process. It’s reassuring in the sense that it proves that he really is that ignorant and egotistical. At times I secretly wondered if his blunders were on purpose to give the impression that he didn’t know or care what he was doing and then come trial be whip smart. No worries,imo, he really is a D list atty who stumbled into a client that has the same value system as he does.

    Surely Mason will regret ever coming on board this crazy train. The borderline contemptable decisions that are being made are going to mar his reputation forever. I already have decided that he must be there in name only if he is sanctioning the continued bumbling. If his role is to be the wise cracking old coot playing second fiddle to the brash young lawyer, it’s working. The big problemo is that the brash younger lawyer has little talent, argumentative, limited comprehension and is roundly disliked and mocked.

    I’m looking forward to the 15th. The family has lied so much that I expect more lies, official under oath lies. They’ve got nothing to lose, they don’t have integrity or respect anyway and they never appear to suffer any consequences for anything so, so what if the hand is raised and an oath taken ? I don’t think it means a thing to them.

    I’m still lurking – waiting for further pearls of wisdom from Blink. In the meantime I have been reading the Letters 1-5 and wonder if I am alone in thinking that any Jury having access to these along with the 911 call etc., won’t need much persuading to find Casey guilty as charged.

  7. Thinker says:

    I agree that Cindy will most likely LIE under oath.
    I just don’t get what she hopes to accomplish by lying?
    Her own attorney said the 911 tapes WILL definitely come in as evidence at trial.
    So, there is no point in Cindy lying to try to keep the 911 tapes out.
    Is is to try to absolve herself (in the Inmate’s eyes) of the guilt of making the 911 calls which eventually led to her daughter being arrested? That was the only good and honest thing she has done in this whole event (even though she lied in the 911 calls when she said her car was stolen).
    I will never understand Cindy’s thought process.
    Why lie when it is not necessary? It will not help Cindy or her Inmate daughter.

  8. Mom3.0 says:

    Stillhere guys- just thought I might be talking to myself LOL As long as I don’t answer myself I’m okay right?

    Thinker I don’t know how to interpret those articles in regards to the evidence lists- One says they are public records and will be released sometime next week- and others like the one you quoted state the evidence lists are not public record…

    And is this evidence that has already been released? or evidence we have not seen? I thought with the Sunshine laws we were privy to everything? Am I missing something?

    Blink can you weigh in on this? What is your interpretation?

    There are many exceptions to sunshine laws, specifically (para) if it reveals case strategy prosecutorially, or defensively. One should assume there will be evidence at trial, we have not seen previously.

  9. MJ says:

    Chelsea~ I lurk all the time too, along with what you said and every statement and obvious attempts by her lawyers to implicate random people i think average, reasoning jurors will see this the way most on here see it. There has been a group effort from the entire Anthony/Defense to concoct an explanation for the blatant murder of an innocent child by one person, her mother. The atmosphere that they have drowned the public in is transparent. They are the only ones that believe their own bs.

    Thinker~ There has to be some psychological reason for Cindy’s constant lies. I couldn’t begin to know but from all we’ve seen it’s how she controls any situation. If you say white, she says black. It’s all so convoluted. Her grandbaby is autopsied by a premier ME and she states that she’s not sure it’s Caylee, WTH? And her reason, the amount of teeth. However she will wear the ashes and use the whole ungodly mess to make money. The 911 calls will be the first of many revisions of Cindy’s words. She can’t seem to let history speak for itself, she must control the perception. She’s already voiced that all lies are not really lies, only half truths or mistruth, so if you have the capacity to believe that , you never have to own anything you’ve said prior. It only needs explaining, doesn’t matter if it makes sense, she said it, it must be so. Truth & lies are interchangable for Cindy.

  10. MJ says:

    ……and more….Thinker why do you think she would want to be absolved in kc’s eyes? Do you think she would’ve just let Caylee go forever had she figured it all out 10 minutes before she made the call? I wonder that too.

    They’re the strangest family I’ve ever heard or read about. Guess there’s more like them but they’ve got to be in the top %.

  11. Mom3.0 says:

    Thank you for your response Blink- You actually made it quite understandable. I will have to assume that the state has a vast array of evidence we have not seen as of yet- several interviews have not been released and who knows what else.

    The defense seems to release things to the media such as Kronk’s ex-wife accounts ect. But I assume we have not seen all of their strategy as of yet either. But I understand now, that neither side must release everything, even of they are finished investigating or reviewing it. Thank you.

    I guess we will have to wait to find out exactly which the evidence list may be- public records or no public records.

    What an eventful week this is going to be. The wheels of justice are finally turning. It seems appropriate that Caylee’s justice seems to always play out on the anniversary of a major revelation -July 15th being the anniversary of Casey finally admitting that the “babysitter” took her, and Cindy and George retrieving their daughter’s car from the impound.

    I look forward to reading your analysis Blink. I hope you will be able to share your thoughts in a new piece.

  12. Mom3.0 says:

    The newest in case it hasn’t been posted:

    “If attorneys in the case against Casey Anthony want to block a list of evidence from being released to the public, they must submit a new motion by 4:00pm Tuesday.”

  13. claudia says:

    Hello Blink,

    Question now that the Lyon will not roar(((((. Can Judge Perry reset a new date for this case to start. The reason it could not start early was that Lyon would not be able to. TIA

  14. chica says:

    Mom3.0

    Did the defense send the list to the judge knowing he was on vacation and it would delay getting released? or!! did they do it to avoid the sunshine law to have that info released to the media and public.

    I for one will be curious how cindy will act during her hearing ??? she is a firecracker waiting to be lit. I think lee may be more civil.

    thanks for the update! I have been coming here daily looking for updates.

    whats your take on how cindy will act at the hearing?
    TIA

  15. chica says:

    P.S
    inept baez wants everything kept out of our ears.

  16. chica says:

    I think she would have just acted like it never happened and gone on with her life and casey with hers. she may have cuzzed her out and called her every name in the book and than some . I think she cindy is an enabler and would not risk anyone and everyone thinking her family was and is dysfunctional and one of the worst I have ever seen or heard of in the whole wide world.

  17. chica says:

    MJ
    good post good points makes alot of sense to me.

  18. chica says:

    mom3.0

    I too come here alot and talk to myself it seems. guess not much going on but I still check a few times during the day. between this and the natalee case I bounce in and out here and there.

  19. chica says:

    thinker
    I wonder if she does lie (as she does) makes me wonder if judge perry can do anything about it. she already gave her sworn statement how can you change that. besides its not even like she is the only one that lied so did george about smelling the odor and once you smell it you never forget it he was a former LE.??

  20. chica says:

    thinker
    cindy has never been held accountable for all the bazaar things she does so do you think that its possible now is the time to make that come a reality to her?? ACCOUNTABILITY.

    now you know why their daughter is so messed up. the truth never entered that home to reside.

  21. chica says:

    MJ

    I hear ya I will be here daily to see if you or mom3.0 post keep this going I know blink is busy so we can keep the chat going.

    I like what you said!!! BELOW

    reassuring to see that Baez is consistent in his disrespect for authority and his disregard for process. It’s reassuring in the sense that it proves that he really is that ignorant and egotistical. At times I secretly wondered if his blunders were on purpose to give the impression that he didn’t know or care what he was doing and then come trial be whip smart. No worries,imo, he really is a D list atty who stumbled into a client that has the same value system as he does.

    yessssssss baez does what he does best nada!! if he continues his arrogant attitude he will rub the jury wrong and immediately they will see thru him and his hateful ways.
    not to worry MJ he will act the same at trial to our advantage. for one the man is not seasoned and is trying to fake it to make it! wont work! his lack of knowledge and experience shines thru and thru and will cause him to loose this case. its already lost as far as I am concerned. how you gonna get past the 30 days not reporting your daughter missing and all the lies she took LE on!!! its in the bag for the state.

  22. chica says:

    A BIG AMEN HALLELUJAH CHELSEY TO YOUR POST BELOW:

    I’m still lurking – waiting for further pearls of wisdom from Blink. In the meantime I have been reading the Letters 1-5 and wonder if I am alone in thinking that any Jury having access to these along with the 911 call etc., won’t need much persuading to find Casey guilty as charged

  23. Mom3.0 says:

    Chica- Hello- Just checking Blink’s site before heading off to bed.

    I don’t know how Cindy will react on the stand- If it were me and I hadn’t seen my daughter face to face for years I would initially probably break down- even more so, if I thought that something I might say may determine if she is found guilty or not. Same for Lee.

    Even though I would want justice for my grandchild, and I would be doing everything in my power to help LE find her killer, if I thought even for a second that my daughter was the culprit, I still would have a hard time knowing my testimony would be used against her.

    Now if you are asking if I think Cindy will try to sugar coat the truth or avoid it altogether- yeah probably- she has been fighting her epiphany moment too long, to open her eyes wide now.

    Will she be combative, I don’t think so, I think she and Lee will be on their best behavior- and I think their answers will include alot of I don’t knows, I’m not sure’s and I can’t remember’s, especially if shown their previous statements.

    I think they will be matter of fact in their answers regarding how they remember it all now- the day and night of the 16th- “I said that to get the police there faster” “I smelled something bad, but I thought it may been rotting garbage”

    I believe Cindy is going to try to paint the situation in the best light possible.

    I am however hoping that I am wrong, and both Cindy and Lee will be entirely forthright in their testimony, providing no spin.

    Good Morning-

    Casey Anthony defense team objects to release of evidence details

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/os-casey-anthony-evidence-records-20100713,0,5819908.story


    On Wesh, Mr. Mason stated that he filed the motion because (PP) the media and the public shouldn’t be speculating on things that may never even be included as evidence at trial.


    WFTV- has link to objection

    “The reviewing of documents and tangible evidence related thereto by the defense should not be publicized and disseminated by the news media.This is a case of the state of Florida versus Casey Anthony, this is not a case of news media and John Q. Public.”

  25. MJ says:

    Hey all. Counting the days til we know how the A’s plan on acting from here on out. IMO, this will show the tact they’ll adopt for the rest of the trial. I tend to agree with MOM3.0, a lot of” not sures “and “can’t recalls”.
    I fantasize about one of them growing a backbone and heart and telling the whole story as they knew it but the odds of that happening are minuscule.

    What chink in their mental makeup allows them to crumple up the value of Caylee and compulsively want to deify kc? They barely speak caylee’s name. The obsession to make their family “whole” again is flawed from the start, the family will never be the same as it was prior to June 08. A part of that ridiculous hand puppet shite was killed and will never return. Dancing on the head of a pin is all they do.

    Not that it matters but imo, along with all that Chica has pointed out, Baez has mishandled this thing from the getgo. A little leeway can be given at the beginning, kc probably had him fully believing that she was innocent and so grateful (ahem,cough) to have his help, but once things began to surface, capitol charges etc he has been instrumental in shaping public opinion about kc. She is the most unsympathetic inmate ever. Baez had the golden opportunity to use the wisdom and resources of famous atty’s and media but he used it all for personal gain and solidified public disgust with all of them.

    Even if he had used any help for professional growth it still wouldn’t change the evidence but his client could have been made to look more human. Even this whole family/inmate visit thing, shows them all in a monsterous dysfunctional light. Directive from Baez? To preserve who? His inmate client or him? I choose him, I’ll never believe that he put the kabosh on contact to prevent kc from exposing her craziness. Allowing kc to be herself and let the warts show would have probably slowly let ppl see that she is unbalanced, she did murder her child but she’s nutz. ( not innocent by reason of insanity but for LWOP) The way he’s done it is that she’s not a psychopath, in fact SODDI , now let’s talk about me.

  26. PigletinCT says:

    Well said MOM3.0

    I’m another long time lurker – not too frequent poster. I think you hit the nail right on the head about Cindy & Lee. They’ll be spouting a whole string of “I don’t Remember” or “I don’t know” statements. The only good thing is that the prosecution should have copies of their previous sworn statements – so they can give them a big “so which is it?” when they decide to try a different spin…….

  27. chica says:

    MJ and mom3.0

    either way casey is toast! no matter how cindy and lee act on the stand ! the jury will be scrutinizing their actions along with caseys. And I cant help going back to the 31 days not reporting her missing and the wild goose chase they took the LE on and so much more. I dont see her going free more likely to get LWOP. and yeah demeanor will play a big part!(casey) sitting there all those months !! likely she will show her true colors. I too cannot wait for the trial to start. I will clear my calender ! thank god I am not working at this time or that time either. I will be glued to the t.v
    like zillions of others:)

  28. chica says:

    hand in hand with popcorn and all kinds of snacks the only run I will make is for the potty lol. tv dinners, sandwichs, and all kinds of junk foood. like at the movies.

  29. chica says:

    where are my manners good morning greetings from ca

  30. MJ says:

    Seriously, if I thought I could get a seat I’d try to go to her trial.
    But I honestly think her counsel will pull the exact same thing as they did in the fraud case. Waste everybody’s time and Now Florida’s money and try and maneuver a plea at the 11th hour.

    If she does end up in court, my house will probably look like one of those hoarder shows. Banana peels, food wrappers, dirty cups and plates all over the place…..

  31. chelsea1515 says:

    Good evening fellow lurkers. Whilst I await Blink’s spin on events and wait with bated breath for Cindy’s courtroom appearance on the 15th, I decided to watch old footage of a jail visit to Casey by George & Cindy. It has re-inforced why I am compelled to visit daily. There must be justice for Caylee.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3xJi0Lu_fc

  32. Mom3.0 says:

    PigletinCT, thanks for weighing in. Nice to see you come out of lurking- Thurs. is going to be very interesting.

    MJ- I agree with all of your observations, the dysfunction is quite sad and maddening to watch.

    Chica, I am eager for this case to move forward also.

    I think the defense is going to fight to get as much evidence thrown out before trail as possible. I also think the jury will not be privy to half of what we know. By the time the defense is through remaking Casey, Cindy, George and Lee, we may not recognize them.

    I think the truth however will be harder to mask.

  33. Mom3.0 says:

    http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_tv_tvblog/2010/07/casey-anthony-wftv-defends-kathi-belichs-style.html

    I was very shocked by Mr. Mason’s treatment of Ms. Belich- She obviously did hit a nerve, and Mr. Mason is not too comfortable with Dr. Lee’s past work.

    I have also been thinking alot about the hypocrisy that is rampant within the defense. Baez wants to play to the media and the public until it shows his client and his team in a poor light. With Mr. Mason’s written objection,he made a point of writing (PP) that talking heads in the media, some with lawyering credentials shouldn’t be given the evidence or any information to speculated upon… But he himself was one of these talking heads before being asked to join the defense team.

    Mr Mason, I found you at first to be quite likable, in an old, jolly, fart kind of way- Sir, no one likes a pompous meany. JMO

    I have no clue who peed in his cheerios this morning but that was utterly uncalled for, and frankly, the day Baez starts sounding more believable in contrast- WoW.

    It never ceases to amaze how “deer in headlights” these attorneys are if they feel the questions before them are so stupid. What the hell do they think an average trier of fact will want to know…

    I ask you- did that man appear in any way confident in the case or his client?

    B

  34. diane says:

    Maybe since Chaney observed what had been going on with the experts, they gave him information he did not want to hear and know now for sure this sure a lost cause and they are going to have to come up with some more ways and people to throw under the bus.

  35. chica says:

    they are gona need a large custom made bus to fit everyone there that they are gonna throw
    under.

  36. chica says:

    thanks classy gal for the video interesting.

  37. chica says:

    haaa blink peed in his cheerios lol

  38. chica says:

    mom3.0
    I love it!! kathi is striking a nerve with mason! seems like he and baez are of the same cut! no class someone needs to piss hard on his cheerios. Kathi is one good class act reporter. Mason knows they are under pressure and especialy him working with baez that cant be fun maybe he should pee on baez’s cheerios. a little extra vitamin for the stomach sake lol

    you go kathi you are my hero. the defense has nothing and is getting pretty raw at the nerves.

  39. chica says:

    kathys boss backs her up thats totaly coool.

  40. chica says:

    mom 3.0
    I think that judge will be fair he knows what they are doing and somehow I think he has caylee in mind but he has to use wisdom and the law.

  41. chica says:

    MJ
    dont you think we could get seats in the court room? I am sure there will be many wanting to get in but I think it may not happen ! exceptions for experts and media etc etc

  42. chica says:

    ok goodnight friends thanks for all the links and thanks blink for the good laugh about the cheerios.

  43. Mom3.0 says:

    I agree with you Blink- Defense- no confidence

    But wait- after seeing the evidence both Baez and Mason were extremely confident they walked out giving the reporters thumbs up-

    Please- like that showed confidence? To me it showed them as two scared men that were determined to put on a brave face-

    No Mr. John Q. Public, we are not concerned with the grisly evidence that the state has accumulated against our client- not at all- in fact we are so confident, we are smiling and displaying our thumbs up- its all okay stance- SEE? So go on about your business the state has nothing- really

  44. Thinker says:

    The Defense canceled the depositions of the Oak Ridge Lab personnel, which were scheduled to take place in Tennessee, on the same days the evidence inspection is taking place – July 13th and 14th.

    I am wondering more and more, if LKBaden is even still on the Defense team? Why wouldn’t she attend the evidence inspection?

    I asked Kathi B about the evidence inspection and Oak Ridge Lab personnel depositions – I asked who was there and if the depositions were canceled.

    Kathi replied: “The Oak Ridge depos were moved then canceled.
    Prosecutors Linda B and Jeff A are with the Defense, as well as Detective Yuri Melich.”

    July 13, 2010 – Defense depositions in Tennessee – Oak Ridge Lab
    State will be present also
    Dr. Michael Burnett – 8:00am
    Dr. Madhavi Martin – 10:00am
    Dr. Mark Wise – 1:00
    Dr. David Glasgow – 3:00pm
    2 hours have been reserved for each deposition

    July 14, 2010 – Defense depositions in Tennessee – Oak Ridge Lab
    State will be present also
    Dr. Arpad Vass – 8:00am
    8 hours reserved for depo

  45. Marine Mama says:

    blink…Are you going to write a letter/Article to Cindy before tomorrow…maybe giving a bit of advise? Think that would be pretty great.

  46. chica says:

    wow wheres everyone.

  47. Mom3.0 says:

    http://www.wftv.com/news/24253362/detail.html
    Defense says they may have found evidence that was previously overlooked-

    Interesting side not when Baez was asked by KB why the defense didnt want the media to know exactly what they were looking at, Baez’s response was- “You just don’t bring the media into cases it just doesn’t work that way”

    http://www.wftv.com/video/24257896/index.html

    Baez answers reporters questions-

    LOL LOL. Well, not anymore, that well is dry.
    B

  48. chica says:

    his cocky arrogance shines brightly. He loves the media ! I cannot stomach much of seeing him talk. I had to click it off! I would rather read about it. This man seriously needs a new attitude adjustment. His arrogance demeanor will truly go against him in court . the prosecution carries themselves with more integrity! I dont think baez knows the meaning of that word. aroogant to the max and so sure of himself.

    (thank you MM at WS)

    What a JERK Mason was!!!
    God bless the monitor for putting up with his crappola!!!!
    What was the point of Mason being so UNprofessional and rude??!! Can he not conduct his business without resorting to such unbecoming behaviour?
    Their little media moment backfired on them big time!

    Since this issue has already been heard by the Judge – twice – it seems like sanctions would be in order for wasting the Court’s time and tax payer money!

    I would be a liar if I did not admit I would love to see Mark Nejame and Cheney Mason face off in a courtroom. That said, he insulted my friend, who I know to be the ONE FREAKING ATTORNEY that quit this case without making a dime on the back of this baby for the right reasons.

    I will go to my grave stating that if Casey Anthony retained Mark Nejame ( I can tell you he probably would not have represented her, but anyway) this case would have pled.
