Orlando, FL– By this afternoon, we could see Casey Marie Anthony convicted of up to 13 felony counts in the fraud trial scheduled for today at 1:30PM EST. Live Link
Over the last week, the legal wranglings, sentencing hypotheticals and LexisNexis databases where burning up the skype accounts of all the legal analysts in Or Lawn Do. I experienced it first-hand as I was in town last week:It was palpable.
According to sources speaking on the condition of anonymity to blinkoncrime.com, the plea negotiations between the State and Jose Baez, defense counsel for Casey Anthony in this matter, broke down over the amount of felonies she would agree to plead to, and the matter of adjudication. WFTV analyst Bill Schaeffer does a nice job discussing the importance from a legal perspective, here.
The afternoon face off between Linda Drane Burdick, Jeff Ashton and the defense team for Casey Anthony is expected to seek Judge Stan Strickland’s ruling on her sentencing and the issue of withholding adjudication which is the anticipated position of her defense.
Simply stated, there is no basis given the known facts of the case to argue that Casey’s actions constituted a necessity, agreement from the wronged party or victim, or any as yet unknown to us allegations such as needing cash for the nanny or kidnapping ransom.
While the defense does have a strong argument to be made that Ms. Anthony is a first time offender and Judge Strickland has already indicated that he will treat her accordingly, I have a suggestion for the State.
I submit aquiring tacky white sunglasses through fraudulent, felonies means, using said stolen property to perpetuate further fraudulent activity, followed by wearing them to your attorney’s office after you have been arrested for same, constitutes a spree. Adjudicate at will.
3View Search Services Foundation has announced a strategic partnership with World Peace One and Arts For Humanity Global at the 2010 Sun Dance Film Festival to aid humanitarian relief and search and recovery efforts in Haiti.
The breakthrough technology in aerial imaging developed by 3View founder Sean Henaday is critical for both human recovery and rebuilding initiatives in the devestated region.
Sean Henady, President and founder of 3View Search Services and co-founder and Vice President Mandy Albritton will be keynote speakers this evening at the Sun Dance Film Festival.
By invitation, they will also be meeting with ancillary organizations to create further alliances that will progress search efforts in Haiti.
These partnerships are structured to facilitate prompt responses for future humanitarian search efforts globally as well; when ever and where ever such services are needed.
3View Search Services is a non-profit 501C3 organization that offers industry-leading, remote aerial monitoring and surveying for the commercial, industrial and agricultural industries.
The tools and processes developed will provide a significant advantage to Law Enforcement in their recovery efforts with missing persons cases.
Most recently, 3View was tapped for aerial imagery analysis to locate Caylee Marie Anthony, missing 34 month old Orlando toddler. Sean Henady has been named as a witness for the State in the prosecution of her mother, Casey Anthony, for her murder.
The core units of 3VSS develop and deploy radio-controlled mini-helicopters and drones that carry a variety of sensors and high resolution imagery equipment.
These UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) feature onboard computers complete with stabilization and realtime image monitoring.
As stated by Sean Henady, President of 3View Search Services:
”With the remote-controlled equipment, you can cover so much territory in a little time and at a fraction of the cost of using a full-size plane or helicopter.
And it’s not like we’re just flying over an area, hoping to see something.
We’re capturing high-quality images that we can review from the ground and then study more in-depth later.”
The strategic alliances with such groups like World Peace One, Art for Humanity and others will greatly advance the response capabilities and expand the scope of searches for missing persons both domestically and internationally.
3View expects to deploy it’s assets to the Haitian relief and recovery efforts within the next week.
George Anthony can stands all he can stands and he cain’t stands no More!
Yesterday, in an exclusive interview with Fox’s Holly Bristow, George Anthony read aloud a letter he wrote over Thanksgiving regarding his and his families plight of living “under the microscope.”
This is the same Holly Bristow that Cindy parked her SUV in rush hour traffic, ran to her news van, banged on the window and shaking her finger screamed to the driver that Holly would NOT be getting any more exclusives.
You can find Dr. Lillian Glass’s assessment of George’s appearance here.
Apparently George feels there is plenty of blame for his strife including bloggers looking for their 15 minutes of fame. Huh?
It would seem to me that in George, Lee and Cindy Anthony’s initial 15 minutes of LAME, they begged the media, the public and Law Enforcement to look for Caylee Marie Anthony THEIR WAY and without any scrutiny of the possibilities of how she got THAT WAY.
The Blinkoncrime contributing editors would like to remind Mr. Anthony that to our knowledge, the only thing that landed under a microscope in the search for his murdered granddaughter was her hair with a deathband at the proximal end; removed from his daughter’s trunk.
The rest of the scrutiny, sir, is of your OWN DOING.
You S O L I C I T E D help from OCSO.
You S O L I C I T E D help from the media.
You S O L I C I T E D help from the public.
You S O L I C I T E D help from the Padillas.
You S O L I C I T E D help from TES.
You S O L I C I T E D help from Private Investigators.
What utterly jams me about you people is your unmitigated gall that you think you can control events.
You have treated anyone in any capacity as if they should open their mouths, take the Anthony spoonful and ignore your hand in our wallets in the process.
You solicited public funds without a license to do so and misled thousands as to where your GRANDDOLLARS were going.
I would ask you how many granddollars your dignity cost you but as I have noted in an earlier “Microscope View” you were devoid of it before Caylee was murdered.
You have openly admitted to following witnesses in this case.
You directed Dominick Casey to spend the bulk of his time trying to dig up dirt on the very people your daughter duped for years; not to find Caylee mind you, but to take the heat off Casey.
How many decent people have YOUR efforts put under the microscope?
Mr. Anthony, I began work on Caylee’s case LONG before I had ever written about it because she was M I S S I N G. I put together a research team and we busted our humps daily to help find her, and to stop you and yours from using her as your personal ATM.
The fact is, these “bloggers” for the most part, all did more to find your granddaughter than you or any member of your family ever has.
When she was found and OCSO and the FBI spent 72 hours straight at the site to make sure they had all this baby’s bones what did you do?
You called the very people whose hands extracted almost every teensy bone of this cherub “effing flunkies” and ordered them out of your house.
What you, your family and cronies have never understood, is that THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU. I don’t give a whip if you pierce your pinky toe. I don’t care about any of your proclivities whatsoever.
What I VERY MUCH care about, is justice for Caylee Marie Anthony.
My team and I will work as diligently as we always have to ensure she gets it and that her legacy is restored.
As long as you continue to publicly lie, omit, evade and demonstrate your overall inability to accept what has happened to your only grandchild at the hands of your daughter, you can expect a slot on my slide at every opportunity.
You knew on July 15. I could throw a rock from your roof to where Caylee laid in festering garbage. Shame on You.
You want out of the spotlight? Tell the truth. You might even try it before Dominick Casey cuts a deal and tells it for you.
New York NY– In what was to be the kick off of the promotion tour for the release of her new book, Andrea Lyon quips the flub of the year:
“..SHE DIDN’T KILL HER KID..”
Ms. Lyon.. That “KID” has a name. It is Caylee Marie Anthony.
Ms. Lyon appeared this morning on the Today Show this to promote her new book: Angel of Death Row: My Life as a Death Penalty Defense Lawyer and was interviewed by Today host Meredith Viera.
“The intense media scrutiny here has made it, as far as I can see, virtually impossible to get a fair trial,” Lyon told Meredith Vieira.< ?xml:namespace prefix ="" o />
She goes on to compare her clients case to that of the Salem Witch Trials.
“The fact that she’s been pilloried in the press … I would liken this, Meredith, to the Salem witch trials,” Lyon said. The attorney went on to describe the mass hysteria that inflamed Salem.
“..that the death penalty puts a lot of pressure on a defendant even when they haven’t commitLyon acknowledged ted a murder. “She didn’t kill her kid,” Lyon said of Anthony.
It is unclear from her statements if her reference was a clue, or tantamount to a confession from her client Casey Anthony as to how and who murdered her daughter, Caylee Anthony .

Orlando, FL– On the Eve of the New Year, it struck me that I have yet to form my New Years’ Resolution, and hopefully, impart one to the dedicated readers of blinkoncrime.com.
After reading this comment from a longtime reader and poster, I realized it would be the basis of what I will ask of you in the coming year.
I guess I’m still alone in not begrudging the Ants any of the media money they collect. I know everyone’s mad at them for not publicly turning against their daughter, and for not helping the state firm up a death penalty case against her, and I get that, but I still have trouble mustering up hatred for them. I don’t think they’re particularly likable or even sympathetic characters—I think that’s why I can’t seem to hate them correctly. I see them as foibled and broken and just so regularly human that I kind of feel compassion for their situation.
I think it’s probably a misconception that they’re rolling in the dough. They’re not working right now. Cindy had to clean out her retirement fund thanks to the two losers she more or less supports, and who more or less have robbed her blind over the past many years. They have lawyers and godnoze who else sucking money out of them prolly as quickly as it comes in. Their grandchild is dead, their daughter is facing death—it sucks. I’m pretty positive that none of us would want to trade places with them. Not that you guys wouldn’t conduct yourselves differently than the Ants. You’re probably less screwed up than they are.
I wouldn’t want to walk a mile in their shoes, and I’m grateful that I won’t have to. But I am also quite sure that I can’t fully imagine what it feels like to be them. Everyone hates them. People surely still heckle them, threaten them, shun them, spit on them, attack them—day after day, relentlessly!—viciously on blog after blog, calling them names, making just horrible assumptions and speculations about them and wild claims against them. Mobs are not warm and fuzzy, whether they are storming your gates with pitchforks and torches, or lobbing negativity and vitriol at you over the ‘net.
(Oh, dear, I must be feeling the full weight of 2009 upon me. Reflection is a dangerous thing, lol.) At any rate, here’s wishing all the Blinksters a safe and happy and fulfilling 2010, hopefully with many fewer human tragedies for us to chime in on.
I think this perspective is a very fair one, and I share it. My response:
