Casey Anthony Hearings: Mar. 2nd, 3rd, 4th,7th, 2011

Wonder what KC is writing...It's as if she's trying to write down everything that's being said...She's crazy.

To me, she is trying to show that she is "on the ball" and is taking notes on anything that the State is saying that she does not agree with. I think Bozo has told her to look like she is writing things down instead of staring into space.

CM is so arrogant!

Arrogant and keeps clearing his throat. He makes me sick!

CM thinks he is Matlock...Tries to act like it...

Oh, I know KC was shaking in her boots...she was so afraid of the big, bad detectives...NOT!!

They are through with arguments..Are at sidebar about something. I think LDB's arguments were much better than CM's ramblings...

So, now what???

I just got back - I was swamped today and tried to listen as much as possible. We need some legal
analysis if anyone finds anything posted that is a good analysis please post - I thought Lindas arguments
made the most sense, but Im prejudice!

I believe I heard Perry say he would rule by the end of next week.

JP just said that rulings would come probably close to the end of next week...Long time to wait!
KC always smiles at and pats members of the defense, but never gives the Ants the benefits of her attention...I'm sure she does this on purpose. She's saying, "These people care about me more than you do. I care about them more than I do you. I have other people that love me. I don't need you." She is punishing them. I just wish they would wake up, see her for what she is, and sit on Caylee's side at trial! She's already washed her hands of them. I'm wondering if that Medina lady lawyer isn't getting her clothes to wear now instead of CA. Someone said something about her having on that gray jacket that KC wore for a couple of days at one of the hearings. She's her new BFF...

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Attorneys for both sides in the case against Casey Anthony are back in court Monday to make their final arguments in a series of motions that could affect the strategies that both the defense and the state will employ in the upcoming trial.

BILL SHEAFFER: Pre-Analysis Of Monday's Hearing
Casey walked into the courtroom at 1:54pm with her hair pulled back in a bun, wearing a lavender turtleneck sweater and gray slacks. George and Cindy Anthony are also present at Monday's hearing.

The hearing began two minutes before the scheduled time of 2:00pm.
Casey's attorneys say comments she made to detectives after her daughter was reported missing shouldn't be allowed at trial since she wasn't read her Miranda rights.

After a brief statement from defense attorney Jose Baez, another of Casey's attorneys, Cheney Mason, delivered the final arguments for the defense in front of Chief Judge Belvin Perry.

Her attorneys argued on Monday that she was in police custody when detectives questioned her about, her daughter, Caylee Anthony. The defense attorneys say Casey was never was told that she didn't have to submit to the questioning.

"Everything that happened inside the home was without the benefits of Miranda," Mason said.

However, the detectives have argued that Casey wasn't in police custody and volunteered to the questioning.

At 2:50pm, Linda Drane-Burdick gave the prosecution's final arguments. She also discussed the night that officers questioned Casey in her home.
"Went back inside her residence and was not controlled in any way shape or form," said Drane-Burdick

The defense is also arguing that her family was working with police when those statements were made. They say her parents and brother were basically acting as agents for the state and that they were trying to get information from Casey to give to investigators.

WFTV's legal analyst Bill Sheaffer said her family would have to agree to work with investigators for that argument to work.

Casey's family said they did not agree to that.

During jail phone conversations, Casey Anthony gave a description to her parents about alleged nanny, Zenaida Gonzalez, who she said had Caylee Anthony. The defense does not want the jury to know about that conversation either.

Once arguments wrap, it will be up to the judge to decide if Casey's statements will be allowed.

Anthony has pleaded not guilty in the death of her daughter and says a baby sitter kidnapped Caylee.

Casey's trial is set to begin on May 9.

I am thinking the same thing that KC is sending her Parents a message.

If KC gets away with this (please, God, No!), she will probably pretend to go to law school and pretend to be a lawyer...and GA and CA will believe every word of it! They are hopeless!!

The hearing's over so I guess we will go back to the regular KC March thread?

someone tell me where to post!
Where is the regular thread? under just the lounge?

This is the thread I was referring to, Artgal...

(The one you started!) LOL

I think Wrap wanted the hearing thread to just be for live blogging during the hearing...Of course, I have been known to be wrong. Won't be the first time!

If you're discussing what transpired in the court room today, saying it on this thread is fine.

Other than that, for what motions are approved or denied or anything else, it is back to the regular thread.

Wrap wanted a thread for live blogging during the hearings. Now that these few hearings are behind us we should post on the thread in the lounge. I am sorry for the confusion.

I just moved some of the comment from this thread to
The Case Against Casey Anthony.....in the Lounge.

Thanks BJ :cheering:

Thanks for moving them, BJ. I do not want to make this confusing for anyone. During any court procedure, I would like to have a separate thread than "The Case Against Casey" for whatever month we are in. If you all have any questions, please PM me. IMO, actual in house PRE-trial court proceedings are a lot different than the daily b.s. that goes on..with Bozo and his motions, etc.

Any articles that have to do with the actual court proceeding also need to go on the court proceedings thread.

When the trial actually starts, I am thinking about having a daily thread. I haven't made up my mind and want to discuss with the other admins and mods.
