Caylee/Casey Anthony Case: Will Judge Rulings Today Be Defense Doomsday?
Chief Judge Belvin Perry promised to rule on 2 outstanding motions by her defense team today.
Update #1 4:45PM.. Motion to exclude trunk stain… D E N I E D
Rulings on Critical Motions regarding a hair with a "deathband" that could only belong to a deceased individual and either Casey or Caylee Anthony, and the air samples tested by Dr. Arpad Vass and found to contain chloroform levels he has never seen, in his 22 year career.
The air samples themselves are not in contention as the "hardware" and methodology in their extraction are used widely in the scientific community, and the defense team, through a stipulation agreement to withdraw contempt proceedings against him, could not argue about anything else. The defense argument was largely about the interpretation of the data that was yielded from the samples as they relate to a decompositional event in the trunk of Casey's car.
Both motions were a combination of a Frye/exclusion attempt by the defense that took several days in court to conclude, in which many observers felt were disorganized and poorly argued in contrast to the deft responses by the prosecution.
Yesterday, for the second time, Jose Baez on behalf of Casey Anthony filed a response to the State's motion to let his already withdrawn "experts" Dr. Danzinger and Dr. Weis be permitted to testify as to what Casey told them during their interviews with her.
You may recall, during the State's deposition attempt of Dr. Danzinger, Judge Perry put the kibosh to it after receiving a call from Jose Baez, and both depositions have since been sealed. Judge Perry referenced testimony about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD, but legal experts agree that in itself would not be grounds for suspending a deposition and immediately sealing it.
It is this editors opinion that during the deposition, Dr. Danzinger recounted parts of his interview with Casey Anthony that may have been incriminating to her.
It was abundantly clear that the defense strategy is/was to attempt to have these witnesses speak about parts of their interviews with Casey Anthony as a way to repeat her "defense" without ever taking the stand, subjecting her to cross-examination by the state.
It is also abundantly clear that Jose Baez et al did not understand the Judge's comments about these depositions the first time around.
The only way these "Docs" will be permitted to testify to anything Casey Anthony told them, is if Jose Baez presents an exception argument to the hearsay rule, and since the "declarant" or Casey Anthony, will never take the stand, 'not gonna happen.
Yesterday afternoon, the defense depositions of Tony Lazzarro and Amy Huizenga were filed with the court.
While there was largely previously known information contained in both depositions, there was one noteworthy tidbit in Ms. Huizenga's which the defense glossed over in a hurry.
Reported exclusively by www.blinkoncrime.com, the Anthony's withheld a major plumbing emergency at their home that sent someone from Hopespring Drive in a panic to locate Caylee.
For the first time, it is confirmed that Casey knew about it, and told Amy it was one of the reasons they could not move in:
Casey Told Amy About A Pipe
This article will be updated when Judge Perry rules this afternoon.

The issue is the way they are doing it!! that P.I is a joke!! guess he went as far as putting the names of the searchers on a form making it seem like they searched the area and found nothing!! what a low life team!!

I just saw your response to my prior post. I guess I have no idea what you are talking about..

bill shaeffer w/kathi belich
ooh okay Blink, “Bump it” my daughter just said something about snookie, I guess It went right over my head…BTW, she’s not even from Poughkeepsie so I guess you were responding with an inmature post for whatever reason and insinuating i’m a snookie like character? And what leader are you talking about…. LOL,,,Whatever, this is just another Anthony Blog that preaches hate anyway, so dont bother responding, again it wont change my mind that this investigation is the worst in modern history…Its just my opinion….Take care.
Ma’am, there is no hate on this site, never will be.
Just love for Caylee Marie Anthony. Go get you some. You will be glad you did.
B
Blink – I’m glad you responded to GTWA as you did, you are absolutely right, there is no hate on this site. I wouldn’t keep returning to it if there were. I feel sorry for GTWA as I can only presume they are either part of the Anthony family or connected in some way to them. It must be harrowing to know the truth but not be able, or want, to accept it. Maybe it will take the full force of the trial to open GTWA’s eyes to the wickedness of Casey. We are all here as surrogate family in support of Justice for a little murdered girl abandoned by her real family.
I wanna see the look on her face when Caylee finally gets her justice,any parent who would hurt their own child deserves the ultimate punishment
snipped…..from post 4/21/2011:
Yesterday, for the second time, Jose Baez on behalf of Casey Anthony filed a response to the State’s motion to let his already withdrawn “experts” Dr. Danzinger and Dr. Weis be permitted to testify as to what Casey told them during their interviews with her……..end of snip…………..I believe that this comment is incorrect, what Baez wanted was for someone else to say/relay/portray what was said in the psych interviews, based on an “event”, perhaps someone who was there when the event occurred. On another note this statement, snipped again……..It is this editors opinion that during the deposition, Dr. Danzinger recounted parts of his interview with Casey Anthony that may have been incriminating to her….end of snip. The vast majority takes on this are, that something KC stated in her interviews related to something that happened to her long ago, something that the defense wants to be revealed at her trial, by someone else who was privy to the “event”. Not something incriminating to her; by the way, why would the defense want something revealed that would be incriminating to the accused? Makes no sense whatsoever. IMO, she probably said she was sexually abused or abused in some way when she was little,THUS,the fact that Perry must determine how long, long ago was. These are examples why I seldom view your site, in addition to not getting a response to my questions on various things/statements you make as fact that you post here.
You portray yourself as an insider and throw out little tid-bits here and there that could make many readers run with that comment as a fact.
My apologies if you really are an insider.
May I ask why you think KC said something incriminating about herself?
archie-
Obviously you have limited knowledge of my coverage in this case, or the case in chief-
Simply put, kindly provide links to snippets of my quotes next time, it is a rule, and Casey is not an idiot, she is absolutely going to seek to proffer confession that she is guilty of improper burial, causing her PTSD.
You have a lot of case cites where judges stop depositions cause they feel like it?
Seriously.
B
Chica
Your little bitty mom is right on the mark with her comment about Baez wanting to play with the big boys.
If only he would put away his ego and spend some time really learning his profession, he might in time, become a good defense attorney.
I see that no one has posted anything about the rulings on the motions by JP. Did he delay them?
FYI to my BOC buddies….and Blink, if I may…..
Got the Wrong Anthony? needs to be handled, imho, by Blink and Blink alone. We don’t give trolls a platform, or anyone seeking 15 minutes of fame at the expense of a murdered child. This ‘person’ does not have a grip on reality and I sincerely wish ‘this person’ would get the help they need! This site honours Caylee Marie Anthony and her short time on earth. Exactly the way it should be.
Blessings and prayers to you GTWA. I pray you find the light and seek the truth <3
I agree, based on intent alone, and you know this handle will flit along-
B
blink
lol I know who that is now! the type=os and scattered personality yup its you know who!
and blink lol to go get you some!
a texas grandfather
no rulings yet ugh what could that poosibly mean? and your so right if baez would quit being so arrogant he may just learn to be a great lawyer!!
I am in orlando on vacation. Visited the site today and can’t believe how close to home this child was thrown out as if she was garbage. Seeing this has given me a gut wrenching feeling
If you were to leave her home and drive to the end of hopespring and take a right the spot is just around the corner
My husband who really knows nothing about this case was in disbelief after I told him about the case
When you are actually able to see the place where caylee was dumped like garbage that is the exact feeling that you get.
The Anthony home looks deserted. I was wondering if they are still leaving there.
Tv does no justice for the location of the remains. It is really like a skip jump and a hop. I can also understand why the pings do not put her specifically on suburban drive. It is that close.
The nerve of this family to back this girl up is just incomprehensible
All I kept feeling once we arrived to the remains site was that this area was a Casey Anthony kind of place. A place that is creepy and dark just like her
I have skulked here at BOC for over two and a half years. This is my initial endeavor in posting. The incisive,literate, postings here have helped this Brit to understand what is happening in this case. Blink’s writing has the precision of a fine surgeon. Thank all of you here at BOC.
Myers:
My sentiments exactly, I was staggered by how close Caylee was found to the Anthony home.
Ok, I will go back to skulking. Justice will prevail!
Fiona-
wow. Thank you and welcome.
B
Ms Blink,
Would you be willing to make a comment on George and Cindy being
excluded from crucial stages of the trail?
In my minds eye I see it as not being there for Caylee but to
gain insight as to what others may testify to. Also to gain more information into what Casey was and is all about. They want to hear the story as well as us.
Now if they are exluded who will babysit George and Cindy.
How will we know if they are watching the T.V. using the internet, and the like during the trial?
I am thinking that if they are excluded they will view by some
other means unless they are kept in the hall day in and day out until
they are called to testify, and able to sit in the court room again.
This is my first visit to this site. Was looking for in-depth continual information on this case to follow during the trial. Since I’m new and not very tech savvy, been hard to navigate around. Any tips would be appreciated.
What I know of this case to date and if I were a jury I would have to vote “Guilty”
I watched some of the hearings and at the time the only thing I could think of is if Jose’ Baez talks and rambles on like this during the trial he will infuriate the jury.
Ter
Blink, I could be wrong. But I’m thinking…. George and Cindy have no idea of what is to come on the witness stand. Casey will do everything in her power to to prove her parents were involved and they too need to spend time behind bars. Agree?
Fiona – please don’t skulk, us Brits must stick together and put our twopenn’orth in. Been here since the beginning although only contributing occasionally; mostly in support of brilliant postings by Chief Blink and her blinksters. I keep wondering when it will hit the UK media. Sure it will once news reaches our shores that a young, attractive mum could get the death penalty. But we know that evil comes in all shapes, sizes and ages. What happened to Caylee has haunted me from day one, I just want to see Justice done. Especially as I am the Grandma to a beautiful, new (4 week old) baby girl, Betsy, whom everyone in our family would lay down their life for without hesitation. If only Caylee had been born into a family such as ours she would now be attending ‘big school’ with her whole life ahead of her. I could weep.
wow blink
its torture waiting for the judge’s rulings on the scientific evidence. many are speculating that its prolly gonna happen close to jury selection! so baez cant file a thousand motions? no?
NO
All Denied
B
I Love HHJP it looks like he has ruled on heart sticker, hair banding and cadaver dogs….looks like it will be coming in…..Love that Man.
what about Dr. Vass, is he in? did the judge still not rule on that one?
The judge just ruled to allow the heart shaped sticker, the hair banding and the dogs hitting on the trunk. I think Casey is sunk. I think justice for little Caylee is finally coming.
Caught a news break while passing the TV -motion to prevent Cindy’s 911 call from being in evidence is denied.
No ruling on Dr. Vass yet but I am hoping.
Gotta LOVE HJBP!! It’s all in!!!
I’m STOKED about the rulings! The little victim has a terrific team looking after her. Not one family member has wanted justice for her but the State does and we do.
KC gambled and she’s just been dealt a losing hand by HHJP, hope her devoted Defense Team will find time in between media junkets to let her know.(or not, oh well…)
Now that a serious of vital motions to the defense have been denied, I wonder what their next underhanded, unethical, scheming act of desperation will be? Abduct the judge and prosecution? That’s about all they got.
…not serious…series of vital motions. My head is full of cotton.
Blink, I recall you saying that Casey’s option to play her mental state was a ship that sailed long ago.
Would any kind of admission from Casey that PTSD or having no soul (snarkity snark) be seriously considered? Don’t they need a mental professional to assess Casey thoroughly before this kind of evidence can be admitted? …and what makes Casey so special that her so called child/sexual abuse would exonerate her from Caylee’s death. I’m no legal beagle but how many defendants have been found innocent of their henious crimes because of their wicked child hood? It’s not common, possible, but not common. Casey is an adult now! Her acts were committed by an adult mind.
IMO, case closed!
Drs Weitz and Danzinger are now listed as States Witness list.
How does that work Blink?
Once the defense realized that these docs would hurt their clients case rather than help (when the defense team and KC came out of the back room all gloomy last hearing) … is the State then able to name call them up for their side?
adding to above …
I mean once the defense removed these two docs from their list – they are now free to work for the State side? Yes??
O you bet your azz. And they are not the only ones..
B
Inmate Anthony’s parents have petitioned the court to allow them a special privelege of sitting in the gallery throughout the trial.
Their 17-page motion begins with this hideous error on page 2, number 3:
“George and Cindy Anthony are the grandparents of Caylee Anthony, the victim of the crime for which the defendant *Caylee Marie Anthony* is charged.”
http://www.wftv.com/pdf/27677696/detail.html
Clearly, not even the Anthony’s lawyer can get this case straight.
No, and no, again. His Honorable Perry will not stand for that. No, and no.
2011.04.26 Supplemental State Witness List
Dr. Jeffrey Danziger
Dr. William Weitz
(**thanks to muzikman @ websleuths for above info**)
If I’m following this right, it would seem that once again “The Mumbles & Bumbles Baez Law Firm” has dug a giant hole for themselves and have given the State a nice prize.
True Dat y’all.
(Blink plays taps on bugle)
B
It is such great news from HHJBP!!! I am praying that Dr. Vass comes in as well, just mainly because I liked him so much, and it would hammer down one more nail into Casey’s coffin. I sure hope that the petition from George and Cindy is denied, they have never, ever, stood behind Caylee, they stand CLEARLY behind Casey. Its a good thing that we have this blog, and others (Val’s) because all of us would be sitting behind the prosecution on Caylee’s side, and that courtroom would not be big enough. Thank goodness for days like today…and thank you Blink for all you do!
Blink on the bugle …
“Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;
All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.”
Safely rest in our Lords arms sweet Caylee – justice is coming!!
And …
can’t you all just imagine the baby killer in her deluxe 6×12 cell tonight?
Bet she’s sweating and making her little angry fisties at the news that the docs that she unloaded volumes of her private psycho BS thoughts to – are now working for the State.
She’s probably trying to remember all the bull-hockey stories she told them, and trying to think up new ways to spin it now that the info can be used against her.
Oh Karma is a bitch!!
Oh my goggle! (I’m not making this up);
Motion for Reconsideration Regarding Motion to Exclude Stain in Trunk of Car (filed today, April 26)
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/78054426/20110426-Motion-to-Reconsider-Trunk-Stain-Motion
Snipped from Motion to Reconsider Motion;
“It would be easy to overlook what the Court believed to be presented for one motion, but was actually being presented for multipal motions as is the case here.”
—————————————-
Uh, yeah, it would. But he’s talking about the Court here, as in, Judge Perry!
Wow, the power of repetition. Go for it Mr Baez.
Vote for Yuri today.
http://www.amw.com/allstar/2011/
I just read
George Anthony’s deposition that was given my the prosecution.
Here are things that stood out for me.
Cindy and George Anthony do not believe the remains they received
are Caylee. (I thought it was just Cindy)
George is blaming 3 of Casey’s x boyfriends. Jessie, Ricardo and Tony. He said he has followed all 3 of them. He said Tony is a drug dealer, and involved with prostitution.
This deposition was over 300 pages. They started with George’s childhood. He said he never hit Casey gave her groundings.
Cindy was the boss in the household. She told George I’ll handle Casey.
Alot of talk about the gas cans and the duct tape on the gas can.
You can tell when George is lying-uses the trying to put words in my mouth.
He said the gas can left his house without duct tape on it and it came back with duct tape. A sloppy job/he never put that duct tape on the gas can.
When questions started about Zanny -Baez asked for a recess. Then George came back with all the precise information about her.
Ashton got George when he said you have followed the 3 x-boyfriends, asked information about them but you never did an investigation on Zany? She was taking care of your granddaughter and you had never met her, you did not have her phone number?
He said he thought Cindy had a phone number.
The jury will definitely be able to tell when George Anthony is lying. I did not see a video with this deposition. I just read it, all of it. When the state showed George photos of his own garage he denied it was his garage/he questioned where the photo of the gas can was taken/
the state questioned him about the first time Casey stole money in the family-Casey stold one of Lee’s check and forged his name and cashed it while she was still in high school. George said Cindy handled it.
also questions about a fake deposit into Cindy’s account for over $4,000/George said it didn’t look real.
When George went to one of Casey’s employers and found out she didn’t work there-Cindy did not like him checking on Casey like that.
There were no questions about any sexual abuse in this deposition of George. This was taken after Caylee’s remains were found.
George denied that Baez passes letters to casey and gives Casey’s letters to her family.
There are talks about a future book deal.
George denies that their private investigator every gave written reports and never gave any information over the phone. Found out
that Dominic Casey went to area near Caylee’s remains from TV.
Does anyone know if Lee Anthony believes they have Caylee’s ashes or not?
Blink do you know?
George said he would sell his soul to the devil to get Casey out of jail.
I found this deposition on the WFTV website.
BLINK
thanks I am so happy I am jumping around like a mexican jumping bean –feel like doing me a mexican hat dance but have no sombrero! oh well viva !! el senor perry!!
Blink,
I have very much knowledge of your opinions, I have lurked on this site for close to 2 years. I have read pretty much most of your comments. I became interested in your site again when I discovered it was listed as a link by what I consider to be the best and most intelligent blogger on this case. The HM. Perhaps I just don’t get your coverage, what bothers me the most are the many statements/opinions you present as fact. As we are approaching trial I view a variety of sites. What brought me back this last time was a comment (from a poster elsewhere) about the A’s finding/doing something in the backyard the first week end in July 2008. I had asked way back then what your theory was.There was no reply, and now know about the plumbing incident. Which IMO, means nothing, as nothing was explained, just more speculation. Lastly, your comment: You have a lot of case cites where judges stop depositions cause they feel like it?
Seriously.
B
HUH?
does anyone think casey is having a panic attack today!! even her atorney!!!
supposedly baez will be on insession tursday and friday!!
sammy
I was reading your first question to blink about the two doctors and scrolled down and there they were they were added to the state!!! justice is coming for caylee!!!! baez shot himself in the foot!!
oh sammy your comments and blinks response made my day!!
waving at all my friends in canada and here on american soil justice is sweet!!!
casey maybe is having a royal american velveeta cheese meltdown!
Tuesday 26th April 2011 – My favourite day so far this year!!
Okay Blink, this is just a thought but do you think the defense could be playing a game about the two doctors. That they knew the state would try to get them as witnesses and this is their way of getting them on the stand to tell Casey’s story? Might not make sense because I really don’t understand the law with regards to this, but it was just a thought. They are so sneaky I wouldn’t put anything past them. Your thoughts?
No, the state knows what they are doing on this one.
B
Oh Happy Day!
Blink… I can’t believe George and Cindy filed a Motion to allow them to sit and watch and watch the opening statements. Anything to bend the rules… ha?
I am thinking the defense is trying to pull something having the Anthonys request being allowed to be in the courtroom all of the time. One way to say that their testamony is tainted. It just never ends with these people. The whole Anthony family are like Gypsies. They work everyone, run every con in the book and live off the state at every opportunity. What a Bella Vita!
Are we still waiting to hear if Dr Vass’s evidence is allowed in?
If I were Judge Perry I would ask George and Cindy to tell me of one time that they sat on the victims side of the court room..and if they cannot think of one, motion denied.
Perhaps this has been discussed, but if so I don’t recall. We all know that Baez has proven himself to be incompetent in this murder trial. When Casey is found guilty as I think she should be and will be, what will stop Casey from asking for a retrial due to incompetent representation in the first trial?
