Now that I have unintentionally irritated some people on another thread I thought I would start a new thread and change the subject. I am sure this has been discussed but I have been away for a while.

What the heck is going on with this case???????????

I know cases have been tried and won on circumstantial evidence - why not arrest her?
 
I have been following this case closely. It is a complete circus. So, so bizarre and sad.

I cannot believe her bond was posted yet again.

Will be flipping between 20/20 and Greta tonight to get the latest.
 
I think she flipped and took the childs life - maybe by accident. I also think the parents are involved. I would tell my child "your on your own - you knew better and were raised better" if they did something like this.

The girls looks almost - hmm - psycotic.

What's really sad is how normal they did look. :( I hope they find out what really happened soon.

I don't know, it IS really sad. They really look very normal and happy. In the videos I have seen, she looks like a devoted Mom.

I really don't want to pass any premature judgement on her, I remember the JonBenet Ramsey case, everyone was pointing fingers at them and it turned out it was not them.
 
Yeah but . .

The Ramsey's looked distraught forever after JonBenet's horrific death . . Casey Anothony was photographed whooping it up at a bar after the child supposedly was kidnapped by the babysitter . . .
 
I have also been watching the case pretty closely. I have a little one who just turned 3 today. I just can't imagine what I'd feel if I thought she was missing for 20 seconds. I don't know what the heck is going on w/this girl but something just isn't right. I don't know why her parents are buying into this stuff either. My mother would run me over with the bus herself if she thought I was responsible for anything like that happening to my kids.
 
That is a good point, Carola, about the Ramsay case...I hear you on that...BUT...it is just too bizarre that the mother did not report anything to the authorities and probably would not have EVER if her mother Cindy didn't intervene. And then once the police were involved, every single "lead" she gave them was false. I cannot imagine any normal mother reacting this way. There are just too many highly suspicious behaviors here.

As someone else mentioned, she had been out on the party scene a week after the supposed kidnapping. That she claimed she was trying to go to the clubs the babysitter liked to visit is just positively ludicrous. What--she went to the club to hunt down the abductor, and then said, "Oh gee, let me just squeeze in a little pole dance while I'm here"???

She also deleted hundreds of photos of little Caylee from her MySpace shortly after the tot went missing. She borrowed the shovel from the neighbor. There was the flurry of phone calls. The cadaver dog hits. Now chloroform in the trunk and the internet searches. The circumstantial evidence coupled with the forensics evidence that suggests Caylee's decomposing body was, in fact, in Casey's trunk, overwhelmingly points to the mother. Whether or not it was accidental or she disposed of the body on her own, hard to guess, but IMO, it seems likely that she is responsible.

Very, very strange behaviors by just about all the family members, if you ask me. Somewhere in all of the muck, the truth is buried.

Poor little Caylee.
 
Cathy,

I totally agree it is strange and there are many things that are beyond bizarre.
I am not saying she didn't do anything, a lot points to it, I just think the court of public opinion is usually really quick to condemn someone. People did it with the Ramseys and it turned out that many of the things were said about them and the case turned out to be halftruths or plain lies.

About the Ramseys looking distraught, back then the majority of people would say they didn't look distraught or it is just show. I don't know how you are supposed to look and act when your child was murdered, people react differently and it is kind of hard to tell just from the pictures on TV.

To give you an example, 11 years ago my son Samuel was one of the near-drowning cases in Arizona. He had to be airlifted and of course, like vultures the local media was camped in front of our house while the paramedics worked on Samuel. When the helicopter arrived, we weren't allowed to go with Samuel and were taken by one of the counselors from the fire department.
When you look at the report on TV I didn't look one bit distraught and I can tell you I thought I was going to die, I could barely breathe and everything was a haze, despite of that I looked like I functioned normally and gave very calm answers to everything and even joked with the counselor. That by no means meant that I was in a terrific mood, I guess I was trying to compartmentalize and not let fear take over.

I just don't like to pass judgement on people without having facts. And none of us knows how we would react and certainly pictures and TV can be deceiving.
 
I just really wish with all my heart that they'd get to the bottom of all of this, figure it out, and arrest the proper person or persons whoever she or he may be. Everytime I see little Caylee's picture on the TV I want ot cry. I'm a proud Grammie of a 3 year old boy myself and I can't imagine live without him. Let's all hope this case comes to close soon.

Wow, Carola, you have a great perspective on all of this, having gone through this. I can't imagine how it must feel to be in pain and to have the media in your face.

I try to (don't succeed most of the time) keep my attention on my life and what I do know. Because as Carola says, we don't have all the facts.

Interesting comments and thoughts tho'

These type of stories are kindof like a car accident, you mean to not look as you drive by, but sometimes the curiousity just pulls your eyes over there...

When I can, I try to turn my gaze in another direction, and at the same time sending support and comfort to all involved.
