Caylee/Casey Anthony Case: Casey Anthony’s Defense Has Gone To The Dogs
As previously reported on blinkoncrime.com, the hearing last week ordering Jose Baez and his defense team to submit specific information regarding their expert witnesses, has gone to the dogs.
Woof!
Dr. Fairgrieve, a forensic anthropologist and expert witness listed for the defense, intends to testify that Casey Anthony should have the right to confront her accuser.
Novel, appropriate, good news.
In this instance, one of her accusers with fur, according to her defense attorney, is named Gerus. The other, Bones.
For starters, if the summary of Dr. Fairgrieve’s findings is accurate as presented in this filing, I recommend as a practical matter, he identify exactly what “alerts” he is seeking to debunk.
There are several, all of which are well documented.
Orange County sheriff’s investigator Carlos Padilla told reporters, “We had two different dogs from two different counties that hit on the same exact spot.”
Evidence Bay with a closed car:
Casey Anthony’s Car: Detectives reported a different dog alerted to the same strong smell in the trunk after the white Pontiac had been abandoned in a parking lot.
“They have a hypothesis that the child may have somehow passed away,” Dr. Richard Weinblatt told Eyewitness News.
It is undoubtedly the recent work of Dr. Fairgrieves in a case involving a murdered man, Robert Wone, that got the attention of Jose Baez and his Scheme-Team.
In a successful inlimine motion, Fairgrieves offered testimony in the supporting affidavit that suppressed canine evidence in the Robert Wone murder.
The three male house mates of Mr. Wone were acquitted of the charges they faced as a result, which were not for his murder. The prosecutor himself could not prove his actual cause of death. The trio are currently facing a wrongful death action by the desceadent’s family.
“My role in the case is basically peer review,” Fairgrieve told the Orlando Sentinel. “I will be reviewing reports on the evidence. So far everything I’ve done has been remotely.” Scott Fairgrieve, MD
The ole probative vs. prejudicial argument is not unexpected in this case, I get it.
However, two different cadaver dogs, from two different counties, hit in the same area under or near Caylee’s playhouse. This was AFTER the alerts in the evidence bay on the car trunk, and both searches were conducted with permission from the Anthonys.
That would be the car trunk that produced one latent lift from the accused in this case, Casey Anthony.
Under Dr. Fairgrieve’s theory of “necessary corroboration”, we, in fact, have exactly that.
The hairs that were found in the trunk, including the hair with the “signs of decomposition” corroborate the canine’s alert as well as the report from Oak Ridge Labs.
Let us not forget, that a statement from the car’s owner and material witness in this case, concurs with the presence of decomposition in the damn car.
Reached late this afternoon prior to his Canine Christmas Mixer, www.blinkoncrime.com caught up with Gerus:
Seriously, that dude has my dander up daily. He needs to stay out from under my collar.
I know what I am doing at my job. And by the way, who is calling who a TOOL?
You tell that *My Cousin Vinny wanna be* that he should take his unearned legal hubris and shove it, where in my line of work, I don’t have to sniff.
Unlike him.
Speaking of hubris, a message to George-
The headline is not going to read ” Casey Anthony Not Guilty of Murder By Hereditary Hubris”
It is going to read..
“Apparent Shared Hubris Defect Cause for Casey Anthony to Blame Father in Caylee’s Death.”
Be like a burger and flip already. It’s all you got.
ps. “Shared Hubris Defect” is mine, J to the B.

Blinkster,
I am all for Baez being able to cross examine Gerus & Bones. My only request is that they not be muzzled, Baez needs to do so less than 2 ft from them and he has to be wearing a liver pate facial.
Baez ceases to amaze me. Has there ever been a more cluless and poor attorney that has not been fired from a case. Casey and Baez deserve each other.
A defense attorney’s job is to provide a zealous defense of their client. In this case that would have represented not proving his client innocent, but making a deal keeping her from the death penalty and maybe a chance of parole.
This joker has single handedly brought the death penalty back upon his client.
R
Red-
Fancy meeting you here. Lol.
I have nothing to add. Liver Pate facial wins
This poor baby, sweet Caylee.
B
LOL…So ole Baez is determined to drive the clown train right into the courtroom. Even the dogs have got something to say about this..
Who Let the Dogs Out?
Who Who Who?
Who Let The Dogs Out?
Could not resist my friend-
B
Blink, didn’t know you speak German-Caninese! Good translation, you obviously redacted a few of the growlier words!
I think Dr. Fairgrieve is able to comment on what he consulted with Baez about early in the case, that is, before Baez got his money and high profile expert list in order. The real expert in canines, scents of human decomp, canine detectors of various scent chemicals, etc etc etc etc etc (and more), is the forensic chemist and canine scenting researcher/presenter, is another on the list.
The JAC will quickly ask Baez to remove one of the forensic anthropologists, and who is he going to choose? Maybe not in time for the state’s deposition of the expert of the same field, who has not been listed for canines or scenting. Will the state depose him about canines in anticipation of his use (not stated by the defense) before it’s too late to prepare? Sneaky defense.
This is nowhere near the cases where he testifies in cadaver certified canine result.
I am SOOO not a handler.
But I am trained to review their result, as used in a criminal case regarding a suspected deceased person.
This is just the wrong bark up the wrong tree, imo.
B
I am still chuckling at the SH Defect, lol.
Ya Know.
One needs to have a sense of relief.
This baby owns me for life. I only wish her own family felt that way.
B
Regarding forensic evidence canines, this is interesting:
http://www.csst.org/forensic_evidence_canines.html
“Of course, a dog cannot testify.”
I made this comment on another blog,
I have been thinking about what Beaz said about Casey’s right to face her accuisers. The dog is not trained to accuse anybody. They can only detect smells. They (dogs) wouldn’t be able to determine whos dead body was in Caseys’ Car trunk because dead bodies all smell the same to them.
Hi Red! I was thinking along the lines of Cheaper by the Dozen when the kids washed the sister’s jerky boyfriend’s pants in meat.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UebBTiBgSIw&NR=1
OMG Blink! You’re right this poor baby! Not only that I had followed the Wone case a few years back, forgot it and now look the three freaky dudes who killed him got off! Go ahead Baez and put a dog on the stand! I wanna see if he really asks it a question!
SA to Gus…now Gus,. did you smell something under the play house…
Gus..WOOF
SA to Gus…did you smell something in the trunk of the car
Gus..WOOF..WOOF
SA to Gus…Gus, whose car was it
Gus…WOOF…WOOF…WOOF…pointing his paw at the MOMSTER…
I would like to know how it is that George and Cindy are not being charged with, at the very least, obstruction of justice. How about perjury? I don’t think they knew what happened at first, but I do believe it didn’t take much time for them to either realize or find out the truth, and yet that still to this day continue to maintain their lie of Casey’s innocence and a fairytale babysitter.
Casey is getting exactly what she deserves…she didn’t care a think about Caylee’s rights or life, now she lost all her rights and nobody cares about her self absorbed sorry excuse for a life. It makes me sick to even look at her. How can anyone, let alone a mother, let alone HER mother, look into those big beautiful eyes and do anything but embrace, love and cherish the precious little child.
Here’s something for the jury to think about when deciding this loser’s fate….think about Caylee’s last moments, looking at her own mother through those big beautiful eyes, as her own mother wrapped duck tape around and around and around her precious little face, sticking a needle in her, using cloroform on her, and then tossing that beautiful little baby into the woods.
I hope they put a big picture of beautiful Caylee up for the jury to look at along side another big picture of her mother partying it up in the days after Caylee’s death. The pictures tell more than any words can say.
God Bless Caylee. IMO, she didn’t get the love she so deserved from a single person in her family. I prefer to picture Caylee in my head with angel wings, now nurtured by the greatest love of all – God’s love, free of any sadness, pain, needs, playing and laughing in heaven.
Oh but cindee, bayazz will then want to check Gus’ paw to see if the answers were written there and Gus was cheating.
Oh Blink, I am so releaved Caylee is out of that house of horrors and in a safe house with the Lord. Sometimes we forget that God actually saves children and others for more horrid things down the road. Thank you Lord for saving Caylee.
Blink~ LMAO
I can’t wait to see what the scheme team will dream up next! Are they smoking something? Baez should be disbared! George and Cindy Anthony aren’t even cadavair dogs and they smelt it too! They are worse than dogs, they are scum suckers who should have stepped up for beautiful little Caylee instead of allowing this chirade to continue.
Casey getting off ~ HELL to the NO
Omg! I meant disbarred
Hi, Blink -
another fabulous comment – as always.
When I read Bozo’s CLASSIC line “Of course, a dog cannot testify” I double-overed in laughter!! He’s like a fourth-rate lounge act in a a seedy bar.
He’s making a mockery of the law and I simply can’t believe that the Florida Bar has not started some disciplinary action against him. And what’s up with NotPerryMason?? Both Judge Strickland and Judge Perry simply gushed about him ….and I think he’s proving to be a blithering idiot. I loved it when Judge Perry suggested that next time Mason get a contract for services!! LOL
Last thing about the dog: I still think the biggest mistake in the OJ trial was not the trying on of the gloves (which OJ hammed up as not fitting) – but the fact that the Prosecution NEVER brought Nicole’s Akita dog into the court room. That dog saw who killed Nicole and wailed for hours after her death. The one neighbor’s accounting of the animal’s distress was unbelievably moving. Akita’s are highly intelligent, immensely loyal dogs …and I bet that that Akita would have gone after OJ and torn him limb from limb given the chance in that court room!
Furthermore – I bet Gerus and Bones are smarter than Bozo and Mason put together.
I have had the sincere pleasure of meeting both Gerus and Bones, and had the opportunity to watch Bones work with his handler. That dog, was dispatched for use when a trained cadaver dog “alerted” for decompostion.
Not once did it alert or produce what is called a “false positive.”
In fact, I believe one of those dogs was called out in the wee hours when Gale St. Fraud called OCSO saying her dog alerted for decomp.. Turned out to be deer bones, and of course the OCSO k9 did not alert.
I am in no way qualified to discuss the certifications of handlers and their k9′s, I only know what they are.
A final note, the soil sample results from the Anthony backyard have not been released yet.
B
Wow Blink – two Casey Case articles in one week – awesome!!!
I know you are busy and thank you for the articles and your keen (or should I say canine) knowledge and perspectives.
Just when I think Bozo and his team of incompetents could not get any more insane they come out with something else. I have a “dog” they all can interrogate and he won’t need a pate’ – only one word in German and justice will be done.
lol.
I dare say we have not seen the last of insanity from the scheme-team turbo-
B
If for some reason Casey does get off… where the hell will she go? Everyone on Gods Green Earth knows she did it!!! She will be a prisoner in her own home.
Angie,
I agree but don’t you think that Todd Macaluso, Andrea Lyon, LKB, and who else quit on her? Anyway, I am sure they would be more than happy to hire KC as a their babysitter, after all, all of them believe KC is innocent. *wink wink*
THANK YOU, Ms. Blink for your outstanding reporting on the latest developments. I am dying to transition from my present political beat assignments to crime reporting….but all good things in time.
I have the utmost respect for K9 Officers and trained/certified scent dogs. I think that Baez is somehow counting on the fact that most people don’t realise that for every 100 dogs trained in a speciality scent-detecting area….only a handful “make the cut”. Even then, they have to be consistent or they are replaced!! I have faith in Gerus and Bones…..they were clearly “on the top of their game” in 2008. God Bless those experienced handlers, too!! What a difficult job! Thanks again for the great commentary.
Thank you and welcome Calista-
B
So Sad!!! FRG it is amazing how it only takes x amount of monies to make an an extremely educated person(s) so gullible. It really is sick.
Dogs don’t testify?
Excuse me, but they already have.
Deposition date: July 17. 2008
Alerts:
Playhouse x 2
Patch of ground between playhouse and sandbox x 2
Corner of the screened porch x 1
Thank you Bones. Thank you Gerus. Both Cadaver Dogs have provided
the reasonable suspicion, corroborated by sufficient evidence, to convict in this murder trial.
Question: does Dr. Fairgrieve have any veterinary qualifications?
He does not, just the training/analysis.
I hope the state calls the k9′s. Seriously.
B
Blink, why would the state be able to hold back the soil results to this late date? Could it be that the defense has never demanded this for some reason?
I’m reminded that the investigators who dug up the Anthony back yard to find positives were more importantly wanting to use that positive alert to find actual evidence that would not just prove the cadaver dog was well trained, well maintained at this level of ‘expertise’ for reliability, was fresh and right on task, not a mistake (dogs are human too), but to find a key piece of evidence that could bring the question of what happened to Caylee, to a conclusion.
I have a working theory on that one kleat, but not ripe.
B
Blink, I cant wait until that theory is ripe. I remember I think you said a few summers ago about Cindy finding something in the backyard and that was a “come to Jesus moment” for her. (She has unfortunately backslid on that since then).
Get the cheese dip and nachos out for Cindy and Caseys comfort food. I hope the Anthonys have a front row seat on the rollercoaster in May and I hope it is televised.
There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that something was found in the backyard that caused Cindy to be extremely worried about Caylee’s well-being that day.
There has also not been a result from testing of the “weed eater” found at the crime scene.
B
Unbelievable….surely, surely one of these sleazy players will eventually turn on one another…how do they even look in the mirror? And why is Baez always smiling…? This child lived in a house of deranged nuts…at least we have the promise that she will celebrate Christmas at Jesus’ feet. Blink, thanks for all you do!
Note to self: take liver pate off the menu for the Christmas party due to recent warnings…may cause nightmares if eaten while having champagne….reportedly nightmares have been of a disgusting, smiling and leering BOZO.
LMAO Blink….you are so creative LOL,,,,,Gerus & Bones should go to Court with their testimony….better yet a demonstration of their skill…wish we could start with Casey as the Vic….but she is not ripe yet (sorry)….I have a friend in LE and he is a K9 handler….his dog “Zeus” is an amazing creature, other than being the size of a horse (German Sheppard).
Blink is going to be on Dana’s radio commenting on resent development in Anthony’s case , dont miss it 9pm EST
Ty Vidda, I had not had a chance to post the announcement.
Much Appreciated
B
This entire case has me feeling so dejected. The defense (and my husband is an attorney so I know their job) is so ridiculous. Bottom line is Casey never reported her daughter missing for what, 30 days? And she wouldn’t have had it not been for her mother calling the police. Both Casey’s mother and father indicated the smell of a dead body in the trunk, there was never a nanny, no one saw little Caylee for weeks, Casey didn’t work at Universal (and kept up with the lie even as they walked to the offices) lie after lie after lie. I cannot believe the defense is going to these lengths, they are going to look more foolish than OJ’s team. Oh, but I forgot, he got away with it, I pray that the jury doesn’t fall for the smoke and mirrors.
Sorry, just venting.
Thanks for including Geru’s priceless comment regarding JB, in the article Blink-
” Seriously, that dude has my dander up daily. He needs to stay out from under my collar.
I know what I am doing at my job. And by the way, who is calling who a TOOL?
You tell that *My Cousin Vinny wanna be* that he should take his unearned legal hubris and shove it, where in my line of work, I don’t have to sniff.

Gerus is so smart, good at his job, & with a sense of humor too. Casey better hope Baez doesn’t call this puppy to the stand. LOL
Thanks for another great article on Caylee’s case. Christmas has come early for us.
What I don’t understand is why they are even wanting to challenge the dog hits if they are going to depart from the Zanny the nanny defense and claim- accidental death/improper burial.
Wouldn’t it help them more to say yes, the dogs were right?
PS I really hope you are right when you say that Casey will have to take the stand and change the story herself- There is absolutely NO WAY IMO that Casey will be able to withstand the cross-examination when confronted with her lies and the complete & utter truth laid out in ALL the evidence against her.
I think they are determined to say that Caylee was put in that swamp by someone other than her Mother, and the “alerts”, especially in the backyard, point directly to her, factor in also, what we may not be privy to yet in terms of evidence.
B
So, if the defense is going to possibly introduce the idea/ theory that someone other than Casey put Caylee’s body in the swamp, and the dogs had it all wrong in multiple spots over multiple days, would that not mean that they are going to be “stuck” with the original Zanny Nanny kidnapping story? It is the only official story Casey has ever told. And the defense would be beyond incompetent to put Casey on the stand to say anything for OR against the ZFG story, IMO.
One thing I keep coming back to, is that the state had enough evidence to charge Casey with first degree murder BEFORE they had a body. That does not bode well for a SODDI defense, IMO. Even if the dog “testimony” were excluded, there is substantial physical evidence tying the remains back to the Anthony home and Casey’s car. I don’t think the canine cadaver dog evidence is critical to a conviction. It’s a nice distraction, for the moment. It adds depth and texture to the State’s case, but the State’s case will not crumble (or prevail) over the validity and reliability of the dogs and their handlers, IMO.
It’s a circumstantial case, and the dog evidence is only one part of the tapestry. Individually, the dogs’ reliabilty can be an exercise in legal and verbal gymnastics, but as one stands back and looks at the whole tapestry, the picture becomes much clearer.
How is this a circumstantial case, with all due respect? There is an abundance of physical evidence in this case. I might have agreed with that position prior to Caylee’s recovery, and prior to the car evidence, but there have been convictions with far less physical evidence than in this case, imo.
B
Hello,
Thank you for your reply, and for the opportunity to respond. I’m new here, and just getting to know your great site.
This case is circumstantial because there are no material witnesses to the kidnapping or the murder of Caylee Anthony. And I agree with you that there is really only one reasonable or logical conclusion as to who murdered Caylee Anthony, and that is Casey Anthony. That conclusion is still an inference from all of the available evidence. Physical evidence and forensic evidence is still circumstantial, without a witness to provide direct evidence. We are in complete agreement that all of the evidence leads to Casey Anthony.
“Circumstantial evidence is evidence in which an inference is required to connect it to a conclusion of fact. By contrast, direct evidence supports the truth of an assertion directly—i.e., without need for any additional evidence or the intervening inference.”
“Circumstantial evidence usually accumulates into a collection, so that the pieces then become corroborating evidence. Together, they may more strongly support one particular inference over another. An explanation involving circumstantial evidence becomes more valid as proof of a fact when the alternative explanations have been ruled out.”
“A popular misconception is that circumstantial evidence is less valid or less important than direct evidence. This is only partly true: direct evidence is popularly, but mistakenly, considered more powerful. Many successful criminal prosecutions rely largely or entirely on circumstantial evidence, and civil charges are frequently based on circumstantial or indirect evidence.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstantial_evidence
I do not think that the State has a weak/ weaker case because there are no witnesses to the kidnapping or murder, I am just acknowledging that there are many different components that factor into our conclusion that Casey Anthony murdered her beautiful little daughter, Caylee. The dog evidence is another piece of corroborating evidence. It helps, but I think the State can fairly easily prove their case even with defense challenges to the dog’s alerts.
In theory, it is a true statement that sans a direct confession or eyewitness account to the actual crimes being charged against an individual, evidence collected in a case is circumstantial, yes.
We have a saying in the “tank”- every case is circumstantial unless it was caught on tape.
Their is a substantial amount of physical evidence in this case, and lest we forget, much of it was already collected PRIOR to Caylee’s remains being found on December 11, 2008.
What was also collected, was the video interviews, and of course correspondences of Casey, witnesses, friends and family. I/We have reported on flagrant lies, not “mistruths”, of which there are many.
The outrage of what has happened to Caylee is seconded only by what continues to happen in her case on a daily basis, and with a Fat cash payout to do so, I might add.
I keep asking myself.. what can I uncover, what angle do I need to get these circus freaks to see what they have done to this baby’s memory?? Surely I am capable of bring that to bear?
Here I sit, just like y’all.
B
ps. Welcome and great first post.
Was there a search warrant in effect for the Anthony property when the Cadaver Dogs’ work was done? If not, a sniff equals a search.
I’ve just been reading excerpts from Cadaver Dog Handbook:forensic training and tactics for the recovery of human remains by Andrew J. Rebmann, Edward David, Marcella H. Sorg, Marcia Koenig.
Yes, they consented, and iirc, OCSO also secured a warrant after they learned the backyard had recently undergone the renovation.
B
Blink said: There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that something was found in the backyard that caused Cindy to be extremely worried about Caylee’s well-being that day.
——————————————————————–
Excellent article as usual Blink!
I’m curious if you think the something found in the backyard that day perhaps smelled like Casey’s car?
Very Possible.
B
excellent article as always. casey anthony and her lawyers disgust me on a level i never knew i could feel. i really hope that if she is convicted she doesn’t try to say she had ineffective counsel. is that a possibility?
Dear Blink, I have been reading here for a while. Always remember that something that Cindy found in the backyard that you had mentioned that I dont think other people who have a blog caught onto. I have kept that in the back of my mind, and thought it had just gone away or been ruled out etc. BUT——maybe not! Interested to hear more on that. Maybe it will be in the dumps that we are getting to read shortly. Funny too that the Anthonys had to “redo” their back yard all of a sudden. coincidence—not.
I have read about cadaver dogs, that when they are searching for multiple bodies that they have to have extra rest because they get depressed and because of that it hurts them physically–dogs are people too.
I keep thinking back to Mama’s clothes,Caylee’s clothes and shoes she was supposed to be wearing and Casey’s tiffany ring coupled with comments made by Cindy….your tiffany ring sweetheart,who gave that to you again and where is it?(not verbatim)Casey …they haven’t even found her clothes yet.
Yep.
B
ps. Love me that Mama.
Is this all part of a plan to claim incompetent counsel on appeal after CindyLoonWho’s precious “mother of the year” daughter is found guilty?
At this point if they decide not to go to trial I hope like hell that the state does NOT cut Casey a deal. The tax payers have ALREADY spent WAY too much money on this, and she had her chance. Alot of them, to tell the truth, and get her deal. I seriously doubt that she will get any offer, even if she asks not to go to trial. Blink can they do that? Sentance her to LWP, or death W/O trial? Or do they HAVE to make a deal? I mean what more can she tell us, we pretty much know why, and how, she killed the baby. We know where she put her, ect. There is no need for a deal. MOO.
____
I wrote this on the older thread, so if there are some reading it again, I apologize. I just dont think at this point the state WILL make her a deal. Her deal days are gone. IMO
Blink you wrote:
“I keep asking myself.. what can I uncover, what angle do I need to get these circus freaks to see what they have done to this baby’s memory?? Surely I am capable of bring that to bear?”
I have faith that if anyone can uncover some darkened corner and illuminate it so that the circus freaks will be confronted with the truth…it is you.
But I don’t know if they would ever give in to the truth, and plea out- its almost as if they are hell bent on going forward with the trial at all costs- I do not understand it.
Isn’t being part of a good defense team advising your client when to plea out too? As much as I want Casey Anthony to face a jury of her peers-I want to hear all the evidence and judge it for myself. I know it would probably be in the best interests of all to plea.
I think Casey and Jose made up their minds a long time ago-
“Go to the mattresses” & I think both are too stubborn and thick-headed to see when enough is enough.JMO
if she is found not guilty – I will lose my religion
Regarding the possibility of a plea deal.
The state has enough evidence to win their case as charged,IMO. I don’t think anything the defense can do at this point will derail that. However, this is a monstrously expensive case, that will get only more costlier for the state of FL. The tipping point for consideration of an LWOP plea by the prosecution, I think, could be at the point that the expense begins to create real public outrage, and the prosecutors begin to feel political pressure to conclude the case expeditiously to save money.
I waver on that theory, though, because I think that the public is also hungry for justice for little Caylee, and that justice, many feel, will be the vetting of Casey’s guilt in a closely watched public trial. To plead at the last minute would cut off the scrutiny of the public and save money, but also shut out the public from witnessing Caylee’s justice. And this has been a very public pre-trial process.
Consensus in some corners has held that the State would not entertain a plea without a full confession and accounting of the murder by Casey herself. However, if the public and political pressure (of an expensive circus trial for 2+ months with a sequestered jury) builds to enough intensity, I think it is possible that a plea offer will be extended to Casey for guilt with LWOP, and not require her to confess to the murder details publicly.
The biggest questions here are, would Casey take a non-public confession plea deal just to poke the public in the eye and deprive the world of witnessing Caylee’s justice? Or would Casey’s narcissism compel her to carry on with the trial to her inevitable doom, which, in Casey’s mind, would mean that she is a martyr?
I don’t even think Casey herself thinks she can win this thing. I don’t think there is ANY chance she will openly confess to the manner in which she killed Caylee. But if a quiet “out” is offered to her, on the eve of trial, she may just take it, to spite the media, and save her own miserable hide to move on to the next chapter of her notoriety at the state pen.
Interesting conundrum, anyway! Which would prevail, the “spiteful bit*h”, or the martyr? And would an LWOP plea be justice for Caylee?
The State would not consider a deal without a full confession in this case. They are prohibited from doing so under the Florida Supreme Court.
B
Blink, Wouldn’t it be funny if the canines testified? The question would be “isn’t it true that you hit on the corner of the screened it porch?” “Ruff” is the answer. “Isn’t it also true that you hit on the trunk of Casey’s car?” “Ruff, Ruff” is the answer.
This is really a dog and pony show!
Thanks, Blink, for that response. I have not read anywhere that a full public confession is a requirement for a plea under the FL Supreme Court. No quiet deals.
Then, I guess the trial will go, because I simply cannot imagine that Casey would stand up and confess to the details. (Though if she ever did, Cindy and George would be in quite a pickle!)
Blink-
I assume you have stats that tell you who I am, and therefore, we will discuss at lab.
Through our coursework, I admit, I wanted to know how the hell you were taking a course that it seemed you should be teaching.
I wanted to post after reviewing a bit of your work; I am in awe.
I will understand if you choose to edit or not post this, but when you presented the case study you did, you earned my lifelong respect.
Because I am limited legally, I would assume, I could not share here.
But I saw pics of you in a stream in rainboots, pouring rain, cold breath, placing markers and cataloging them for the record.
In person, your the girlie type.
In the field, if I was a bad guy, your a nemesis in candy coating.
Please know this is a compliment and not condescending in any way.
Toph
SO..
We can agree your opinion has come a long way from rain boots with shorts?
You are kind, given my apprehension to the subject matter in the first place.
I effing hate cases related to children, of any kind.
Wrt the victomology and the profile, they are solid, imo.
What now?
B
Blink,
While reading on Seamus O’Riley, I found this article, stating that it is rumored that Baez and/or Cindy Anthony had someone try to plant Jesse Grund’s DNA on Caylee’s remains.
It is really bothering me to think that they could actually stoop so low as to do this. But, I am remembering when the statement was made about Lee — “He knows what he’s done”, and they do have the tape of Dominic in the woods on the phone near where Caylee was found.
Casey left some of Caylee’s things at Jesse’s house that day, and it did appear that Caylee’s shorts may have been placed with her remains at a later date, because of their intact condition…
Then, the defense has been so adamant about doing their special touch DNA tests. Why??
They have been pointing the finger at Jesse since day 1, which really makes me angry…but, if they actually tried to plant his DNA at the site of the remains, my God… they should all be in prison.
It really blows my mind to think that anyone, especially grandparents of the baby, or an Attorney, could do something like this.
http://seamusoriley.blogspot.com/2010/12/casey-anthony-defense-dna-scandal.html
In an uncomfirmed report, it may be that someone on the defense team or within the family, perhaps private investigator, Dominic Casey, (or Lee Anthony?) under the direction of Jose Baez and/or Cindy Anthony, sought to plant DNA evidence from Jesse Grund, on to the body of Caylee Anthony, while her remains were yet to be found.
The report says that either Baez, or the family, sent the private investigator to to the place where Casey dumped Caylee in order to taint the body with some collected DNA evidence from Jesse Grund, former fiance of Casey Anthony.
There is no report, and frankly, I am surprised to him get caught up in that kind of thing.
I have admired his work on occasion, but I feel like he has moved from his specialty, and moreover, when we analyze people’s statements, we have to consider other relative evidentiary factors.
Everyone knows Casey was planning to frame JG, most especially him, so am not getting what the big “reveal” is here. I thought those posts were going to be removed sans corroboration in the first place- I am not getting it.
We already know Hoover showed up at the TES search and told a colleague of mine that we needed to search off Suburban Drive. That would be a week before the whole hidden camera incident.
I absolutely and unequivocally believe that Baez and The Anthony’s et al knew where Caylee was located and sent Dom Casey there through some means of communication. It was under water, or who knows how this would have played out.

UHMMMM…OK. Blink, could you pls explain the AgentX and your exchange? Did I hit the wrong link and go into the 007 thread?
Sorry, colleague stuff.

Blink, I listened to the sm broadcast, and again, I’m on the same page wrt Cheney Mason. When I first heard he had joined the team, I thought finally a voice of reason..not so much anymore. I still hold on to a thread of hope that when the discovery, depos, hearings etc are said and done, and he knows what’s coming in, he will do his best to keep this insane circus of a case from going to trial. But, if not, “when you choose the behavior, you choose the consequences that go with it.” But hey, his career not mine.
Hello to anyone that can answer this question please.
Where is Dominic Casey and have the police interviewed him yet? or is he being protected somehow for his interview? That man knows A lot I am sure of it.
