Just watched the ABC World News' update on this case. The anchor commented on how the Anthony's support of their daughter has waned significantly since Casey's accusation of molestation at the hands of her father and brother. Seems as tho Casey is willing to put her parents/family through whatever hell she deems necessary in her own twisted mind in order to avoid prosecution. Did I hear correctly that she wanted her parents to use the reward money to post her bail? What a sick, sick, sick girl. Her daughter was still missing at that point and all she wanted was to be set free. Speaks volumes of her character or lack thereof IMHO. I feel terrible for her parents. They seem to have made a very nice home for their unwed daughter and grandchild. How awful it must be for them, especially Mrs. Anthony. IRC, she originally placed the call to the police about the vehicle having been missing, and the subsequent "odor" in the car being similar to that of a dead body. From what I've seen, I believe Mrs. Anthony is/was a nurse? Sadly, the tapes of the parents visiting their daughter in jail were played. That girl was treating her parents terribly from the moment she was arrested. I can only imagine that this was not new behavior. With regard to the death penalty, it was reported that unless/until the prosecution can prove that Casey in fact murdered little Kaylee, she will not be subject to the death penalty. I do think it would be a shame if the prosecution offers Casey a plea. Especially if the plea is in exchange for a confession or details of what happened to her daughter. At this point I don't think it matters, the child is gone. As far as I can tell, Casey will say/do anything, notwithstanding whether her testimony is truthful. Kaylee's mother definitely played some role in at the very least, the coverup as to the where, when and how's of her young daughter's demise.

There has been so much information about this case around here. And I can tell you this, I certainly would NOT want to go through the courts in Italy. Not one bit. I think she is innocent of murder. It is one horrible mess. She made more than a few really bad choices. But I don't think she killed her room mate. No one but the room mate know for sure though, I guess.

Three years ago I happened across a book called "Monster in Florence" and read it. It concerned a killer who was slaying young couples who were parked. Long story short, the prosecuter was the same one as Amanda's case and he visited a psychic every week and she told him that a cult did it and where to find the killer. He did so and incarcerated the so called cult killer who turned out to be totally innocent. An American writer went to Italy to write and met a famous author who was writing a book about the case and they became friends. Both writers ended up in jail on trumped up charges via the hand of the same prosecutor. They eventually got released and the American was given a scary notice to get the heck out of Italy stat which he did. He continued following the Amanda Knox case and predicted the Prosecuter would do the same so, needless to say, I've followed the case and prayed hard for this girl. Today is a good day for me.

If you have Amazon Prime, don't miss Sneaky Pete. It's 10 episodes and will definitely have another season. Brian Cranston is a producer and is one of the stars along with Giovanni Ribsi. We watched Whiplash last night. I thought it was a slow start and intense, but incredibly well done. Lion was fabulous! Passengers is really good too. I'm not a fan of Sci-Fi, but DH saw it on a flight and ordered it from Netflix so that I could see it. If you haven't seen the Crown or FEUD, they're good too!
