Casey Anthony appeared at a court hearing on Friday, denying that she was aware of the search parties that were investigating the disappearance of her daughter Caylee from September to October of 2008. Anthony answered two questions brought in a lawsuit against her by the volunteer organization Texas EquuSearch on Friday during her court appearance.
Tim Miller, the director for EquuSearch, said that Anthony not only denied knowing about the search but she also admitted that she did not witness her father call police to tell them about the discovery of Caylee’s drowning in the family swimming pool.
Anthony’s right against self-incrimination has been allowed by Judge Lisa Munyon, which keeps her from answering certain questions, because Anthony is still in the process of appealing a conviction of lying to police. After Caylee first went missing, Casey told police that her daughter had been kidnapped. During the trial, her lawyer said that Caylee drowned in a swimming pool.
The attorneys for Anthony have been fighting to keep her from answering any questions until her appeal is resolved.
Miller has said that even though Anthony made denials about the search, she really did know what EquuSearch was doing in an effort to find her daughter. The organization spent over $110,000 on two multi-day searches for Caylee.
“Of course she knew… she got our business card when we walked in the door,” Miller said.
The claims issued by Anthony about Caylee created one of the largest missing person’s search in United States history.
The woman should be placed in a cell and forgotten about.
Why bother putting this poor-excuse-of-a-human-being under oath? She continues to lie and will always lie. I guess the “spiritual guidance” she is receiving from the pastor is not having much of an impact on her.
Shalom & Boker tov. What must be stressed is that there is no evidence, NONE, that Ms Anthony abused, neglected, or murdered her daughter. There is no DNA, no fingerprints, eyewitnesses. There is no legitimate forensic science. The three pieces of Henkel brand duct tape had no Anthony family DNA or fingerprints, and it is was the testimony of one forensic scientist the duct tape had, in fact, been planted on the skeleton later to keep the child’s jaw in situ. The one, dime-sized piece of duct tape which allegedly had ‘heart-shaped’ residue on it was destroyed during FBI testing, and never photographed. Memory of the residue is not admissible evidence, but hearsay. The single 9″ long hair fragment found in the trunk of Ms Anthony’s car cannot be identified. ‘Smell’ is not a science, and there is NO evidence to prove a child’s body had decomposed in the car trunk. Moreover, witnesses testified Ms Anthony was a marvellous mother. What exists are hysterical, Victorian posturings by the Queen of Grief Porn and her fascist acolytes who, on television, want a live broadcast of Ms Anthony being drawn-and-quartered, then burned at the stake wrapped in the Constitution they detest. They WANT her guilty, always displaying the failing covalent bonds of their lesion-damaged brain tissue. In fact, Ms Anthony is INNOCENT…and this incontrovertible fact drives them into apoplexy. She was saved from state-sanctioned murder by a formidable defense team, who were continually slandered by mediasaurs and their type writers — Jose Baez, Cheney Mason, Linda Baden, Rosalie Bolin, Ann Finnell, Lisabeth Fryer, Dorothy Clay Sims, among others. To Ms Anthony, I say: kol tuv uv’racha…may you be blessed with all that is good. STEPHAN PICKERING / Chofetz Chayim benAvraham
THank YOu Stephan!
Stephen, just because you and the dumba** jurors don’t accept ALL over 300 pieces of forensic evidence does not make it untrue.
“Surprise, surprise”. I wanted Casey to be “not guilty” too. I was a young mother once and I could see some kind of accident happening. However, Casey wouldn’t testify in her behalf and she said she didn’t know where Caylee was. For 31 days she led a life of a free woman, without responsibility. I do believe she is a very sick individual and will probably mess up again, but next time she won’t have her parents behind her and with so many people hating her, she’s not going to have much luck getting out of trouble. Its very sad indeed. If she’s truly innocent, she should tell the truth to someone who will give her a chance to tell the world in a broadcast interview, without money. That would say a lot to me about her possible innocence, but she’s stupid and is spitting in the eye of justice.
Whatever ‘Stephan’. You are an idiot.
If Casey is as pure as new snow…then why did she not call the police,why did she let her father be slandered and emotionally abused,why did the mother of the year lie repeatedly about where Caylee was. If Miss Anthony is innocent why did she hinder police ability to located her daughter? IF Miss Anthony is innocent how could she lie to her mother about where her daughter was,where she worked,who looked after Caylee when Cindy was busy….if this woman is innocent than her toddler of a daughter truly was cursed from the moment of her birth. Innocent has taken on a very sad definition these days.
what kind of mother does not call the cops when their child goes missing, she is indeed stupid. This whole case was just a big confusion to me, made me very angry.
I live an hour away from Orlando, I’m not related to the Anthonys and even I knew about the search. How can this woman be apealing her conviction of lying to the police when it’s so obvious that she’s lying again. Common, everybody and their momma knew about the searches, how can the mom, not know about people looking for her daughter? they were in her house for crying outloud. And when will these judges grow a pair of balls and say enough is enough with this damn child murderer and do something about it. I’m tired that my tax money keeps going to these senseless trials where after months of court appereances and thousands of dollars these damn judges come back with, well I’m gonna give you 30 days in jail with time served, and 40 hours of community service and 12 months probation. What kind of crap is this?
This child killer and her damn lawyers are only stalling, they know that that appeal is not going anywhere due to the ton of evidece there is that proves she lied. They’re only doing this so she doesn’t have to answer any questions in the civil suit against her, at least not until her probation is over, once that’s done with, she’s going to take off and dissapear, and since it’s a civil lawsuit, she never has to show up. They’ll rule against her and nothing else, because no matter what equisearch or Zenaida Gonzalez get awarded by the courts, the truth is that Casey never has to pay that money, she knows it, the lawyers know it, the judge knows it, everyone knows that this is just a farse that will end up in nothing. A judge can say Casey you owe them 100 million dollars, and she can turn around and tell the judge; so what? I’m not paying. Kiss my ass, and then she can leave and there’s nothing anyone can do. She can literally tell the judge to kiss her ass and walk away and they can’t do anything against her.
If her lips are moving … she is lying!
Wow… I cant believe people keep defending this verdict!!! Sorry Stephan but that poor baby was left out in elements that no forensics, finger prints, DNA would survive in. So that being said, rational people go to the next option… Circumstantial evidence, which was overwhelming. I hope this case helps the viewers of CSI understand the show is just a show.. They solve fairy tail cases. Convictions are possible without cause of death or no body found at all… Because of circumstantial evidence!!!
The jurors were uneducated piers that felt they needed a cause of death or Caseys fingers prints on Caleys throat… They needed to be educated on the fact the evidence was washed away. But you know what did not disappear, Casey claims her daughter was kidnapped and did not notify the police for 31 days..
Get real people!!
Stephan,
Your response is interesting. Her only lawyer left, Mr. Cheney had requested her to take a plea half way through the trial. You must have not watched the trial. I am really amazed of your stupidity or perhaps you are an attorney for her or Casey herself. Please get real, the public is not that stupid.
she did it. no one else did. she going to do something else and go to prison just O.J.,Scott Peterson, Drew Peterson and Van Der Sloot. It’s just a matter time.
New evidence has just surfaced this afternoon implicating Casey Anthony in complicit involvement with recent leaked tapes.
Stephan Pickering has the hots for Casey Anthony. He shows up at any site that mentions her name, always with the same cut-and-paste defense that there is no evidence, blah, blah, blah.
