like did about Lee #CaseyAnthony

16:31:42 So now defense is trying to make it out that because he can't recall what she said about abuse,
it *could* have been sexual. #CaseyAnthony
16:32:18 Clearly not the impression I got from him at all. He even remembers Lee allegedly "trying" to feel
her up. #CaseyAnthony
16:32:51 Pretty sure he'd remember even more (because it's even more shocking) her own father trying
or succeeding in molesting. #CaseyAnthony
16:34:27 Lazzaro said he recalls #CaseyAnthony saying GA "hit" her as discipline. Don't think defense
can count on him to bolster sex abuse claims.
16:34:52 Court is in recess til 8:30 tomorrow morning, at which time they're going to take up a motion
before testimony resumes. #CaseyAnthony
16:35:38 Gotta feed my family...will try to get back in time to update blog & answer msgs this evening.

Friday, 27th of May.

07:21:25 Good morning! Court to start at 8:30 this morning (motion hearing). Blog updated thru Thurs:
http://trialnotes.blogspot.com #CaseyAnthony
07:33:45 Court is in session. State's Motion in Limine. State wants defense to be precluded from asking
witnesses about... (cont.) #CaseyAnthony
07:34:47 ...(cont) statements made by #CaseyAnthony without making a proffer to the court first. (i.e.
getting her testimony in w/o testifying)
07:35:28 Baez counters that limiting their questioning of a witness inhibits getting at the truth.
#CaseyAnthony
07:36:14 Baez says giving state advance preview of testimony prejudices the defense. #CaseyAnthony
07:36:46 He claimed the state had been allowed to introduce impermissible evidence (partying, sleeping
around, innuendo). #CaseyAnthony
07:38:08 Judge: Motion deals with eliciting statements of #CaseyAnthony through other witnesses. Those
are "self-serving" statements.
07:38:44 There are three exceptions that allow self-serving statements; all have foundational
requirements the def hasn't met. #CaseyAnthony
07:39:31 Judge rules the state's motion to require proffers before asking witnesses about self-serving
#CaseyAnthony statements is GRANTED.
07:40:24 Baez moves for mistrial based on cumulative effect of state eliciting impermissible "lack of
remorse" character testimony. #CaseyAnthony
07:40:57 Judge: How many times have you asked witnesses whether #CaseyAnthony is a good mother?
Can be construed as character evidence.
07:42:20 Judge denies the motion for mistrial, citing case law to Baez. #CaseyAnthony
07:44:39 Defense is asking the judge to approve transcription services and additional hrs for penalty
phase. #CaseyAnthony
07:47:11 Judge says if motion to preserve contains testimony from witness who will be testifying, he'll
grant that motion. #CaseyAnthony
07:49:05 Penalty phase request is for additional hours for the mitigation specialist. #CaseyAnthony
07:49:27 Recess til 9:00 a.m., when testimony will resume. #CaseyAnthony

07:52:40 Between storms and updating blog, didn't have a chance to get back and answer msgs last
night. Sorry. I'll try to get to all of 'em today :)
07:56:12 Reminder: If I exceed msg/hour limit, I'll get Twitter timeout for an hour. Add @TrialNotesToo to
follow during those timeouts. ;-)
08:00:48 Mallory Parker is the first witness called by the state today. #CaseyAnthony
08:04:02 Parker is 27, customer serv rep. She is engaged to #CaseyAnthony's brother, Lee. She met him
in 2006. Were couple in June/July 2008.
08:04:42 She chatted with #CaseyAnthony now and then. Weren't extremely close, but kept in touch.
Good relationship with Cindy, closer now. Ditto Geo
08:05:39 In June she wasn't aware #CaseyAnthony wasn't at house, but became aware early July via
Lee.
08:06:22 She attempted to text msg #CaseyAnthony couple of days before July 4 weekend. She asked
that night if Casey was in downtown Orlando.
08:07:17 She went downtown w/Lee and their friend, Danny Alvarez, to a club on Church St (popular
club/bar area). #CaseyAnthony
08:08:03 They went to try to find #CaseyAnthony after Lee rcvd info that she might be at specific club.
Got there around 10pm. Did not find CA there.
08:08:33 She continued to text msg her, probably 5-6 times. #CaseyAnthony responded to some of them.
Parker was asking in msgs if downtown.
08:09:10 #CaseyAnthony asked her if she was w/Lee; told her she just wanted some space, for family not
to worry about her.
08:09:36 Parker asked if #CaseyAnthony would come to family get-together that weekend and bring
baby. CA said she would try.
08:10:10 Lee seemed focused, frustrated and concerned. He was also trying to get hold of
#CaseyAnthony at same time Parker was.
08:10:34 They stayed downtown a couple of hours, mostly in one place. May have checked another place
before they left. #CaseyAnthony
08:11:22 They never located #CaseyAnthony. Didn't have any further contact with her between then and
July 15.
08:12:45 Cross by Baez now. You went looking for #CaseyAnthony at Cindy Anthony's request?
Objection/sustained.
08:14:27 They went at Cindy's urging. Saw Caylee's affection for #CaseyAnthony. Casey and Caylee had
special bond (witness is crying).
08:15:06 Did Caylee ever go w/o food, appear neglected? No. Never saw #CaseyAnthony strike her. Said
their relationship was "amazing."
08:15:26 Witness is excused. Judge calls attorneys to the bench. #CaseyAnthony
08:17:11 Frank George calls William Waters as state's next witness. #CaseyAnthony
08:18:40 Waters is 32, unemployed, previously worked as engineer on light rail project. Met
#CaseyAnthony July 4 2008 at party at his home.
08:19:36 He worked with Amy at Hoolihan's. Amy & #CaseyAnthony were decorating his house for the
party, arrived after lunch.
08:20:21 #CaseyAnthony was polite, introduced herself and started conversation. She did not say
daughter missing/kidnapped, was looking for her.
08:21:35 #CaseyAnthony told him she had child that evening. She and Amy helped keep eye on things in

the home during party.

08:21:59 He lived in Thornton(?) Park in downtown Orlando at the time. #CaseyAnthony
08:24:02 George shows witness photo. He IDs it as pic of Amy & #CaseyAnthony. Baez objects -
irrelevant, cumulative. Sidebar.
08:28:12 The judge admits the photo into evidence over objection of the defense and George publishes it
to the jury. #CaseyAnthony
08:31:11 Waters again IDs Amy & #CaseyAnthony in photo and says it was taken July 4 2008. CA
mentioned Caylee briefly.
08:31:55 A group of them went to the fireworks. #CaseyAnthony was on phone with her b/f the whole
time. He could hear the conversation.
08:32:35 She was talking to Tony about his moving back to NY, telling him she didn't want him to. She
was angry. #CaseyAnthony
08:33:42 After fireworks, all went back to his house. #CaseyAnthony was drinking. Her anger was gone,
mood was "carefree." Party ended 1:30-2:00am
08:35:03 #CaseyAnthony left with Amy. He got her number. Was going to Ikea next day and she wanted
to go w/him. She showed up 7:30/8:00 next am
08:35:55 He wasn't expecting her. She told him something was wrong with her car (drove different one).
They went shopping for the day. #CaseyAnthony
08:36:35 She was spunky, happy...didn't mention her child missing/kidnapped; didn't ask for help to find
her. They went to Target first #CaseyAnthony
08:37:22 They bought some coffee and bubblegum. #CaseyAnthony didn't purchase anything else. They
went to Ikea next. They went to Zaxby's too.
08:38:44 No change in #CaseyAnthony demeanor. They spent 2 hrs at Ikea. She wanted to get furniture
for home she/friend were moving into.
08:39:11 #CaseyAnthony told him she & friend w/child were looking for stay-in nanny, were going to
move in together in the next 2 mos.
08:39:52 #CaseyAnthony told him she was event coordinator at Universal, that she did a lot of work at
home from her computer. No mention of coworkers
08:40:50 #CaseyAnthony told him she loved her job. On July 5, never mentioned Caylee; he didn't ask
about her.
08:42:02 Couple of days later, he was to go to dinner w/ #CaseyAnthony and for helicopter ride. He
texted her but she said tied up with "nanau"(??)
08:43:03 Never saw her again after July 5. Made plans with #CaseyAnthony but never panned out (he
had meetings, etc.).
08:44:40 He got text msg 1:30 in the morning - actually, got a phone call from FBI agent. Can't recall if he
got text msg from #CaseyAnthony July 15
08:45:55 Baez w/cross. You had just met #CaseyAnthony? Yes. As far as you knew, she had job she
loved as event planner? Yes. No indicating was lying.
08:46:33 Part of this world she was in was that she was happy, nothing wrong in her life? No, except for
with Tony. #CaseyAnthony
08:47:01 World of #CaseyAnthony that you knew was she was going to move in w/friend & have live-in
nanny? Yes sir.
08:47:26 Any indication she was faking shopping for furniture? No, sir. #CaseyAnthony
08:48:06 Is defense going to claim she had break with reality and believed all the lies she told? ("her

world") #CaseyAnthony
08:48:57 Have any info about June 16 when Caylee drowned? No. How she did? No. Baez done. George
w/re-direct. #CaseyAnthony
08:49:40 Was #CaseyAnthony convincing in the things she told you? No reason to believe any different,
so yes. Witness is excused.
08:50:39 George says state and defense have entered into stipulations about various videos from
June/July 2008. #CaseyAnthony
08:52:31 Baez: We stipulate authenticity, but we require a foundation. Judge: (long pause) You require
foundation? Yes. Judge: Sidebar. #CaseyAnthony
09:04:00 The jury is given a 15 min recess. Attorneys are arguing "lack of remorse" testimony, videos.
#CaseyAnthony
09:04:34 Judge says state's evidence doesn't go to lack of remorse, but to show defendant's demeanor.
#CaseyAnthony
09:06:28 Judge says the testimony does not violate the principles of "lack of remorse" testimony.
#CaseyAnthony
09:07:37 Recess for another 10 or so minutes. #CaseyAnthony
09:23:31 Judge is back on the bench. Baez complains about video showing #CaseyAnthony purchasing
beer (goes to character, he says).
09:23:54 State says she was of age, nothing inherently "bad" about buying beer. #CaseyAnthony
09:25:05 Defense does not object to authenticity of videos. Judge noted the defense's objections for the
record. #CaseyAnthony
09:26:02 Judge will read stipulations for each video at time state introduces each. #CaseyAnthony
09:27:02 Judge reads stipulation regarding Target video (true and accurate representation of Target's
records). #CaseyAnthony
09:31:22 Judge reads stipulation regarding JC Penney video (true and accurate representation of JC
Penney's records). #CaseyAnthony
09:32:15 They hit a technical glitch w/the Target video so are publishing the JCP one to the jury first.
#CaseyAnthony
09:33:58 Stipulation read for another JCP video; it's published to the jury as well. #CaseyAnthony
09:35:41 Stipulation for Ikea video read; video published to the jury. #CaseyAnthony
09:38:39 Stipulation for Target video from July 7 2008 read by judge; video published to the jury.
#CaseyAnthony
09:41:33 Stipulation for another Target video read by the judge; video published to the jury.
#CaseyAnthony
09:46:18 Stipulation for July 10 2008 Target video read by the judge; video published to the jury.
#CaseyAnthony
09:51:31 Stipulation for another July 10 Target video read; video published to the jury. #CaseyAnthony
09:53:49 #CaseyAnthony sure did enjoy spending other people's money.
09:57:09 Stipulation for Winn Dixie July 12 video read by judge; video published to jury. #CaseyAnthony
10:03:39 Stipulation for a second July 15 Winn Dixie video read by judge; video published to jury.
#CaseyAnthony
10:04:53 They have technical issues with that W-D video and move on to one from Bank of America from
July 15. #CaseyAnthony

10:05:35 Poor Amy H. -- what a way for a friend to repay your kindness to them. #CaseyAnthony
10:07:52 Video from Blockbuster of July 15 (another technical issue). Those glitchy videos will be
published to jury later. #CaseyAnthony
10:08:40 Drane Burdick calls Catherine Sanchez as the next witness for the state. #CaseyAnthony
10:09:36 She is a district manager for 16 Amscot Financial stores. In July 2008 was at
Goldenrod/Colonial Amscot. #CaseyAnthony
10:11:33 LDB has witness ID Amscot in a photo, as well as Papa John's and Quiznos w/in the same
plaza. #CaseyAnthony
10:12:33 Sanchez shown another photo, IDs it as part of the parking lot at Amscot. #CaseyAnthony
10:13:43 Witness says there is a Sam's Club (where LDB circled with telestrater) behind Amscot; also a
dumpster. #CaseyAnthony
10:15:01 Witness shown photo which shows closer view of dumpster and the parking spaces to the left of
it. She IDs it as accurate. #CaseyAnthony
10:16:01 On June 27 2008, Sanchez was working at Amscot from 7am-7pm. She noticed
#CaseyAnthony's car parked next to dumpster that day.
10:17:16 Witness uses telestrater to mark where #CaseyAnthony's car was parked. It was backed into the
space, in a straight manner.
10:17:53 She did not approach vehicle for any purpose; only took notice of its presence. It was there
when she left work. #CaseyAnthony
10:18:24 It was still there the next morning when she got to work. She checked the car and wrote down
the tag info. Did not touch car. #CaseyAnthony
10:19:06 She walked around #CaseyAnthony's car to see if there was a note someone might have left
indicating car broke down. Saw none.
10:19:35 She doesn't remember much other than car was a little messy inside and there was blanket in
back seat. #CaseyAnthony
10:20:49 She called OPD to report abandoned car in parking lot. OPD said it had not been reported
stolen.. #CaseyAnthony
10:21:18 Her compliance officer said to give it one more day before towing. Company has a contract with
Johnson's Towing. #CaseyAnthony
10:21:50 She was off Sun. Returned to work Mon morning, car still there. Called Johnson's to have it
towed. #CaseyAnthony
10:22:18 Car had not moved from its original position. Never saw anyone in, at or near car.
#CaseyAnthony
10:23:56 She observed #CaseyAnthony's car being towed. Noticed odor when she found car, but normal
smell for area near dumpster.
10:24:39 Amscot has cameras, but she doesn't have access to that info (corporate office). Never saw
#CaseyAnthony's car after Johnson's towed it.
10:26:04 Baez with cross. Several cameras there? Yes. She doesn't know where they are placed in the
parking lot. #CaseyAnthony
10:26:56 Camera both inside and outside building that are visible to the public. Anyone could see them?
"If they look, I guess." #CaseyAnthony
10:27:46 There are two gas stations nearby, within walking distance. You smelled trash when you went
up to car? Pretty much. #CaseyAnthony
10:28:39 LDB re-direct: You're talking abt in the dumpster? Yes. Baez: Didn't smell anything other than

trash? Reg smell from dumpster #CaseyAnthony

10:29:49 LDB calls Simon Birch as the state's next witness. #CaseyAnthony
10:31:02 He was operations mgr for Johnson's Wrecker. That facility is secured. Entire property enclosed
by 7ft chain fence. #CaseyAnthony
10:31:42 Additional compound inside that was locked and gated. Within that area, enclosed storage. He
lived on-site. #CaseyAnthony
10:33:27 Confirms they received #CaseyAnthony's car from Amscot on June 30 2008. Judge reads
stipulation that Johnson's records of tow accurate.
10:35:13 LDB shows witness towing/impound records. He verifies they are accurate. #CaseyAnthony
10:38:00 Witness details procedures used at tow yard. #CaseyAnthony
10:39:23 Witness IDs overhead photo as lot of wrecker yard. #CaseyAnthony
10:40:36 Witness ID's Narcoose Rd and mobile home trailer on the lot. #CaseyAnthony
10:41:03 Witness indicates fenced area on photo with telestrater. #CaseyAnthony
10:43:49 Nasty storms...gonna have to go for a while. Hopefully see you after lunch. :) #CaseyAnthony
12:09:31 Great article! Potentially applicable to CA. RT @BiancaMPrieto #caseyanthony referenced in
article via @denverpost: http://bit.ly/iClePD
12:16:38 Kids killed by mom(via @DenverPost article): swaddled in blankets, wrapped in plastic,
submerged in water http://bit.ly/iClePD #CaseyAnthony
12:18:36 via @DenverPost article: http://bit.ly/iClePD ...believe child is endangering or preventing
another, more valued relationship #CaseyAnthony
12:20:36 If #CaseyAnthony killed Caylee as charged, those points from article referenced in last couple
tweets would certainly seem applicable.
12:36:50 Judge back on the bench. Afternoon session begins with a sidebar. #CaseyAnthony
12:39:37 Linda Drane Burdick continues direct exam of Simon Birch, the tow yard manager.
#CaseyAnthony
12:40:37 Before lunch, Birch testified that he has professional experience smelling both garbage and
decomposition & can tell diff. #CaseyAnthony
12:41:55 Paperwork sent to owners of towed cars requires proof of ownership, DL or other form of ID,
cash-only payment. #CaseyAnthony
12:42:39 Letter notes daily storage fee at tow yard (believes it was $20-25/day at time). Birch walked to
#CaseyAnthony's vehicle with George Anthony
12:44:57 LDB shows photo depicting areas Birch walked from and to in going w/ Geo from office to car.
He marks path w/telestrater. #CaseyAnthony
12:45:45 Birch said first thing Geo did was apologize for wife's outburst; said they were under a lot of
stress. #CaseyAnthony
12:46:21 George told him granddaughter and daughter were missing, hadn't seen them in a while. "We'll
probably divorce over this." #CaseyAnthony
12:47:21 When they got to #CaseyAnthony's car, he imagined George would just get in and drive the car
away. George had no other items with him.
12:47:56 George got in car and attempted to start it. It wouldn't start. As door opened, the smell came out
"very intently, potent." #CaseyAnthony
12:48:30 Do you believe you can ID what smell that was? Back of his mind, thought it was decomp but
didn't mention it to George. #CaseyAnthony

page 107 / 122

TrialNotes's Tweetbook
27-May-2011

12:48:56 He has smelled it before on numerous occasions, including recent to that, and had never
smelled anything similar to decomp. #CaseyAnthony
12:49:37 He didn't say anything to George because it was an agitated situation he felt he didn't need to
add to. #CaseyAnthony
12:50:33 Birch stood by driver's door as GA tried to start car. GA did not have gas can with him. Gas
gauge was on "E" - out of gas. #CaseyAnthony
12:51:54 George had gas with him, so Birch escorted him back out and GA returned with the gas. Metal
can, older one, seen better days. #CaseyAnthony
12:52:23 The can seemed well-worn. Did not notice if it had tape affixed. Nothing besides driver's door
opened to that point. #CaseyAnthony
12:53:18 They decided to open trunk to check on odor, but can't remember if that was before/after GA
tried again to start the car. #CaseyAnthony
12:54:09 Saw nothing inside the car that would indicate an odor. He suggested they open the trunk.
Birch/GA standing directly behindcar #CaseyAnthony
12:54:39 Odor from trunk even stronger than from vehicle. Some flies flew out and they noticed standard
white kitchen garbage bag. #CaseyAnthony
12:55:14 They thought they'd look in the bag to see if it was clue to odor. They opened the bag and
peered inside. #CaseyAnthony
12:55:41 Drawstring plastic bag, can't recall if it was drawn and tied. Can't recall whether he or GA
actually opened it. #CaseyAnthony
12:56:27 He saw pizza box, papers, nothing to indicate food stuffs of any amount. Bag very light "not like
1/2 chicken in there." #CaseyAnthony
12:57:00 They didn't sift through the items. Appeared nothing in there to create smell, so Birch offered to
dispose of it for him. #CaseyAnthony
12:57:22 Did not offer GA an opinion whether bag was source of smell and neither did GA offer same to
him. #CaseyAnthony
12:58:09 Birch took bag and walked to fence line and tossed it over fence. Said it was very light.
#CaseyAnthony
12:59:06 GA got back into car, thanked him, apologized for aggravation, and drove it out of the tow yard.
#CaseyAnthony
12:59:44 He went and retrieved bag and put it in the dumpster. #CaseyAnthony
13:00:56 LDB is finished. Baez begins cross. Required by law to send notice by 4th day of car being
towed? Yes. #CaseyAnthony
13:02:00 He and Anthonys assumed the reason they didn't get notice sooner was weekend+holiday+As
out of town couple of days. #CaseyAnthony
13:02:35 When vehicle door was open, the smell he'd noticed days earlier was evident. GA then tried to
start the car. #CaseyAnthony
13:03:22 Did he bring gas before trying to start car? No, GA tried to start the car first, then went and got
the gas from his car. #CaseyAnthony
13:04:45 Baez shows witness depo where he says they opened the trunk before he tries to start the car.
Yes, sir, that's in depo. #CaseyAnthony
13:05:52 You have unique experience, perfect person to tell difference between garbage and decomp.
"Wouldn't say perfect..." #CaseyAnthony
13:06:30 "...just that I'd had professional experience with both." Not common to show up w/gas cans? No,

page 108 / 122

we had loaner cans. #CaseyAnthony

13:07:06 Birch said maybe 5 mins from time they opened trunk til GA got gas. With him total of maybe 10
mins. #CaseyAnthony
13:07:47 You'd never obstruct justice or allow someone to drive a car away if you knew it had evidence of
homicide, would you? No sir. #CaseyAnthony
13:08:31 Johnson's is the police towyard, isn't it? Yes. GA says missing g-daughter and you never called
police? No, sir. #CaseyAnthony
13:08:59 Way you found out was when it was towed back to you? No, wasn't towed back to us. Picked up
by us for elsewhere. #CaseyAnthony
13:09:56 Driver called and told him, "Hey, that car we released was taken to forensics." Baez Qs about
media coverage now. #CaseyAnthony
13:10:47 Following day and after, he saw what everyone else did on TV. LE didn't take your statement til
24 July? Doesn't recall. #CaseyAnthony
13:11:36 Baez shows him statement. Refreshed his recall that it was July 24, after 8 days media
coverage about #CaseyAnthony's car.
13:12:11 You knew missing child and foul odor in trunk of car? Yes. Major source for your biz was
OSCO? Substantial part, yes. #CaseyAnthony
13:13:55 GA informed you #CaseyAnthony's car at Amscot for 3 days? Yes, came up in conversation. As
complaining why not notified, money? Yes.
13:16:06 Re-direct. LDB asks if form mentions from where car was towed. Birch says he believes it does.
#CaseyAnthony
13:16:54 Birch called LE following morning when he was getting ready for work and saw A's on TV saying
granddaughter missing. #CaseyAnthony
13:17:30 He notified them about garbage bag he thought might still be on tow yard property.
#CaseyAnthony
13:18:14 He checked dumpster, thinking bag could be evidence, and he couldn't find it. He then called
police. #CaseyAnthony
13:19:20 Birch said the smell did not seem to stay with the bag once it was removed from the car.
#CaseyAnthony (very important)
13:20:21 Baez on re-cross. Birch believes form notice included address of location from where car towed.
#CaseyAnthony
13:21:18 He called LE following morning and gave statement June 24. You discussed what you saw on
TV with LE? "Like what?" #CaseyAnthony
13:22:09 You told him about pizza box you'd heard about on TV? Either/or, he says...it was in his memory
bank that it was in bag. #CaseyAnthony
13:22:53 To him, pizza box wasn't that important. Told detective he believed he saw it in bag, but to his
mind, wasn't important. #CaseyAnthony
13:24:14 Told LE thought I knew there was pizza box in there from having seen it, but can't say 100% if
might've been from TV instead. #CaseyAnthony
13:25:43 Witness is excused. State calls George Anthony again. (poor guy) #CaseyAnthony
13:27:00 Baez tried to imply through Birch that GA arrived w/gas cans b/c he knew car was out of gas
and already knew at Amscott. #CaseyAnthony
13:28:04 Ashton conducts direct for state. George says they found the notice of cert. letter from PO on
front door Sunday. #CaseyAnthony

13:28:41 He had no idea who it might be from; wasn't a name he recognized as anyone he knew. Told
Cindy he'd see about it Mon. #CaseyAnthony
13:29:34 He'd just started new job, so decided to go Tuesday instead. He picked it up around noon from
P.O. #CaseyAnthony
13:29:52 GA saw Johnson's Towing address outside and found notice of towing inside. #CaseyAnthony
13:30:15 Notice gave address and said towed on June 30th. #CaseyAnthony
13:30:50 Concerned b/c he thought vehicle was w/ #CaseyAnthony. Caught him off-guard. Thought it
should be in Jax w/ her.
13:31:41 GA called Cindy and told her on his way there to find out about it. He inquired at reception area
of tow yard. #CaseyAnthony
13:32:13 GA was upset at the cost of $500 when they live half a mile away, no phone call from them as
courtesy, etc. #CaseyAnthony
13:33:56 GA had to go back home, get title and go back. He took gas can b/c in his experience common
to do when picking up towed car. #CaseyAnthony
13:34:49 Cindy arrived home from work. They went to tow yard with title and gas. Said they were agitated
over expense, $500 lot of $ #CaseyAnthony
13:36:47 GA - when within about 3 ft of car, he smelled strong odor. Concerned b/c yrs prior he'd smelled
similar odor. #CaseyAnthony
13:37:47 GA- You never forget that smell; very distinct odor. Was concerned it might be his
daughter/granddaughter dead in trunk. #CaseyAnthony
13:38:16 Odor you mentioned from past, was that odor of human corpse? Yes. #CaseyAnthony
13:39:33 GA put key into lock to open it. When door opened, odor more intense. Saw no blood, etc.
inside, which relieve him a little. #CaseyAnthony
13:41:00 GA and Birch quickly realized car was out of gas. Went back toward trunk of car. Whispered,
"Please don't let be Caylee or #CaseyAnthony"
13:41:40 When trunk opened, he saw the garbage bag, pizza box, laundry bottle with his own eyes, he
said. Didn't touch it. #CaseyAnthony
13:42:33 George saw maggots inside the car himself. #CaseyAnthony Felt relieved the worst he
suspected wasn't case (CA and/or Caylee in trunk).
13:43:20 He could see the "z" and "a" from "pizza" on box through the bag. He never touched it, doesn't
know its weight. #CaseyAnthony
13:44:27 GA went and got gas from his car. Started car, kept windows down, stopped where Cindy was,
then drove home. #CaseyAnthony
13:44:57 Did smell go once bag removed? No, still very strong; had to drive home w/windows down,
couldn't have w/windows up, no way. #CaseyAnthony
13:46:23 He wasn't worried on June 24 b/c he hadn't seen Caylee, but by July 15, his concern grew.
#CaseyAnthony
13:47:23 GA arrived home w/car around 2pm. Pulled into garage, opened sunroof, windows, hood, trunk
to air it out. #CaseyAnthony
13:47:59 Talked to Cindy about vehicle being a tow yard, being worried about Caylee, having to go to his
new job. #CaseyAnthony
13:48:47 GA washed and vacuumed all the cars, even Lee's when he lived there, and including
#CaseyAnthony's car.
13:49:34 Noticed stain on spare tire cover he'd never seen before, about size of a basketball.

#CaseyAnthony
13:50:46 GA - circular, basketball size stain; can't say if it was liquidy or powdery in nature. Interior was
very messy inside. #CaseyAnthony
13:52:34 Photo of interior of #CaseyAnthony's car. (my opinion...doesn't look so messy to me, but George
is way neater about his cars than i am!).
13:52:59 Photo shows CD case and brown belt in front passenger seat. #CaseyAnthony
13:54:16 Photo showing backseat of #CaseyAnthony's car with Caylee's carseat and a pair of black
high-heel shoes.
13:54:48 Caylee's empty little carseat. :(
13:55:36 GA didn't want to leave but had new job and at least needed to make appearance. Cindy was
going to try to find #CaseyAnthony
13:56:51 State done with direct. Jurors want a "special" (i.e., "time to smoke") recess. Judge laughs and
grants it. Recess til 3:15. #CaseyAnthony
14:24:00 Recess over. Jury brought back in. Baez conducts cross of George Anthony. #CaseyAnthony
14:24:51 JB: Received notice what day? GA: July 13. Baez is making GA come off stand to mark Baez's
calendar. #CaseyAnthony
14:25:50 I have a theory JB is trying to push GA's buttons til he snaps so he can say, "Aha...see how he
is! Mistrial!" #CaseyAnthony
14:26:42 JB: Tow letter sent July 4? GA: I assume it was. JB: Tow yard mile and half from home? GA:
Roughly, yes. #CaseyAnthony
14:27:37 How long does it take mail to go a mile and a half? George doesn't know. JB: You can't help the
jury with that? (Me: Geez!) #CaseyAnthony
14:28:15 From July 6-12, never used front door? No, not our main entrance. Couldn't see notice from
street? No, sir. #CaseyAnthony
14:28:58 It is you who usually gets the mail? Yes. Cindy leaves early & comes home early evening? Yes,
5-6pm. #CaseyAnthony
14:29:51 You leave around 3? No, around 2:15. You generally pick up the mail? Yes, but has no control
when it's delivered. #CaseyAnthony
14:31:06 JB's implying GA knew of the notice and intentionally ignored it b/c of his own sinister agenda.
#CaseyAnthony
14:32:45 Aware of 2nd/3rd/final notices from PO at your home? No. (objections - assumes facts not in
evidence/sustained). #CaseyAnthony
14:34:08 Did you call Amscot on that day? After I got to my work, early evening. #CaseyAnthony
14:34:54 No way Birch would be aware that you knew car was there at Amscot for 3 days?
Objection/sustained. #CaseyAnthony
14:36:01 GA has been to many tow yards to pick up cars for family/friends. "You just had lucky feeling car
would be out of gas?" #CaseyAnthony
14:36:30 Objection / sustained. Judge: "Mr. Baez..." He asks twice more. Both times objections were
sustained. #CaseyAnthony
14:37:08 Did gas cans have tape on them? Don't remember which can I took. Don't remember if that can
had duct tape? #CaseyAnthony
14:38:22 Objection: asked and answered to best of ability. Judge sustains, tells Baez he's said he didn't
know which he took. #CaseyAnthony
14:39:30 Hadn't spoken to #CaseyAnthony since June 24 2008? To best of my recollection, yes. It'd been

page 111 / 122

TrialNotes's Tweetbook
27-May-2011

3.5 weeks since spoke to her? Yes.

14:39:52 Concerned for your granddaughter when arrived at tow yard, the most precious thing in your
life? Yes. #CaseyAnthony
14:40:21 You were telling people about your missing granddaughter? No. Told tow operator hadn't seen
daughter/granddaughter. #CaseyAnthony
14:40:40 I did not know my granddaughter was missing at this time. Was concerned for them because I
hadn't seen them. #CaseyAnthony
14:41:01 You were telling people at the tow yard that? Only the 1 person, tow operator. #CaseyAnthony
14:42:20 When you got into car, you smelled human decomp? Yes. A smell you never forget? Yes.
Distinctive? Yes. #CaseyAnthony
14:43:08 Before opening trunk, you asked Birch to walk around with you? No, didn't ask him to. Baez
shows his July 24 LE statement. #CaseyAnthony
14:44:15 Objection to Baez's reading of statement. Sidebar. #CaseyAnthony
14:45:57 I think Birch testified that Birch himself suggested they check trunk and walked back there w/GA
on his own initiative? #CaseyAnthony
14:46:33 Seems I do remember GA saying in his statement, tho, that he asked Birch to go to the trunk
with him. #CaseyAnthony
14:47:19 JB reads from statement. "GA: I told the guy, will you please walk around the back of the car
with me?" #CaseyAnthony
14:47:47 Because you wanted a witness, wanted to distance yourself, didn't want to be associated with
evidence in this case? #CaseyAnthony
14:48:38 GA: I did not know Caylee was missing or #CaseyAnthony wasn't available to be found. If I
asked him, must have asked him. If something bad..
14:48:55 ..was there, I would've faced it and been a stand-up guy about it." #CaseyAnthony
14:49:28 You then opened trunk? Yes. Smelled human decomp? Already had smell, opened trunk to see
what was back there. #CaseyAnthony
14:50:44 And you smelled decomp? All I found was bag of garbage. Stronger smell of decomp at that
point? Repeats all he found was bag. #CaseyAnthony
14:52:00 George tries to tell him once he saw in trunk and saw garbage, he was not thinking decomp.
Baez is repeating it. #CaseyAnthony
14:52:52 Experience as detective allowed you to recognize the smell? Yes. You didn't touch bag? Not at
all. #CaseyAnthony
14:53:09 Because you know not to touch evidence, right? Didn't know it would be evidence at that time.
#CaseyAnthony
14:53:44 Your child, granddaughter missing, and you smell decomp smell in her car and you don't call
LE? No, I did not. #CaseyAnthony
14:54:15 I did not call daughter at that time. As detective, you know if you smell dead body, that's a crime
scene? #CaseyAnthony
14:54:44 Wasn't det at time - was father and grandfather. #CaseyAnthony
14:55:23 You know if you move evidence it might destroy it, right? Didn't think it was evidence at that
time. #CaseyAnthony
14:55:54 No longer considered about missing granddaughter? Always considered about my
granddaughter. #CaseyAnthony
14:56:56 You drive car home, air it out, go to work, don't call LE, don't tell anyone at work? Didn't mention

my personal life at work. #CaseyAnthony

14:57:28 Multiple objections to Baez's attempted lines of questioning, most sustained. #CaseyAnthony
14:58:21 On July 24, did you give statement to LE, not wanting wife/son to know? Anything I could do,
was reaching out any way could. #CaseyAnthony
14:58:59 You told LE on that date about experience smelling that car? Believe that was part of their
investigation. #CaseyAnthony
15:00:39 JB gives GA LE statement to review. GA: Believe he had smelled a smell like that out in the
woods.... Objection..sidebar. #CaseyAnthony
15:01:14 GA becoming visibly upset with these inferences JB trying to draw. #CaseyAnthony
15:02:50 If jury doesn't believe all these things about GA, they're gonna feel sorry for him and really
despise defense team/defendant. #CaseyAnthony
15:09:47 You know as former detective, best way to not be questioned is to remove yourself as far as
possible? Object/sustained. #CaseyAnthony
15:10:52 Ashton on re-direct. Baez asked you about distancing yourself from evidence, remember that?
Yes. #CaseyAnthony
15:11:50 If Caylee drowned and you took her body and threw it in swamp, there'd be no evidence in her
car, would there? Obj/overruled. #CaseyAnthony
15:12:24 No, sir, there wouldn't be. Ashton: So there'd be nothing for you to distance yourself *from*
would there? No. #CaseyAnthony
15:12:45 Witness is excused, subject to (repeated, my guess) recall. #CaseyAnthony
15:13:07 Frank George recalls Anthony Lazzaro to the stand. #CaseyAnthony
15:14:49 Does "L7Tone" mean anything to you? It's his AOL IM name. #CaseyAnthony's IM name was
"caseyomarie"
15:18:40 George shows Lazzaro document. He IDs it as IM conversation with #CaseyAnthony
15:19:59 Conversations span April 9, 2008 - June 12, 2008. George moves to introduce as evidence. Def
objects, wants to be heard. #CaseyAnthony
15:20:57 Guess what? SIDEBAR! Maybe that should be the standard "take a drink every time it's said"
word for this trial? ;-) #CaseyAnthony
15:30:32 Judge has some concerns about the IMs. I think State saying it will not introduce IMs prior to
June 10 2008. #CaseyAnthony
15:31:13 Geo wants to publish the ones having to do w/Lazzaro wanting to come over to
#CaseyAnthony's home.
15:31:39 Judge reading transcript...funny to hear him saying, "Yo!" ;-) #CaseyAnthony
15:33:37 That portion has to do with a "sex act" (BJ), the two of them joking back and forth in IM. But
wasn't what state wanted..lol #CaseyAnthony
15:34:41 He reads another exchange where #CaseyAnthony puts off Lazzaro from coming over b/c
child/parents in the way. Defense doesn't agree.
15:35:39 FG says it shows motive for murder (child/parents in the way of her doing what she wants).
Judge not buying it, it seems. #CaseyAnthony
15:36:16 FG says when they first started to date, #CaseyAnthony had Caylee w/her. Couldn't do what
she wanted b/c had to bring Caylee back home.
15:36:48 She was locked/held back in that home by her daughter - couldn't do what she wanted and what
she did do from June16-July15. #CaseyAnthony

15:38:02 Judge: Why didn't she kill parents, then? You don't need to answer. Court rules irrelevant/more
prejudicial than probative. #CaseyAnthony
15:39:25 Baez was smirking as evidence was denied. Let's see...1 smackdown for state and how many
for defense? ;-)
15:40:37 Judge releases jury for the day. They changed their mind about Lightning game (laughing). Also
w/have refreshments. #CaseyAnthony
15:41:52 They will see game on 65" screen courtesy of Brighthouse, the official sponsor of the 2011 Jury
of the Year convention. ;) #CaseyAnthony
15:59:26 Judge is having sidebar with attys but recessed court for the day. They'll resume 9:00 Sat
morning. #CaseyAnthony
15:59:52 Not sure what Perry's idea of "half a day" is for Saturdays -- anyone heard? #CaseyAnthony

Saturday, 28th of May.

07:35:34 Good morning, everyone! Hope your holiday weekend is off to a good start! Don't forget - court
starts at 9:00 today. #CaseyAnthony
07:47:23 Thanks for the #FFs yesterday! Also thanks to everyone who helped me with question about
court hours today. You guys are the best!
07:59:31 Judge Perry is on the bench. Linda Drane Burdick re-calls Anthony Lazzaro as first witness of
the day for the state. #CaseyAnthony
08:01:50 Frank George is conducting direct for the state. George shows document on screen (tattered
orientation sheet from Full Sail). #CaseyAnthony
08:02:48 Lazzaro says it contains basic info on how to register, etc. There is some handwriting on sheet -
"Cameron" and address. #CaseyAnthony
08:03:22 The handwriting is not Lazzaro's, he says. The sheet was in his apt. #CaseyAnthony
08:04:26 He stayed in contact w/ #CaseyAnthony during his NY trip on daily basis. Returned July 5. CA
picked him up in his Jeep & was happy 2 see him
08:04:53 They went to Buffalo Wild Wings that night and he met some of her friends. She stayed with him
every night July 5-15. #CaseyAnthony
08:05:30 No change in her demeanor from when he left. #CaseyAnthony
08:06:54 George shows Lazzaro receipt from Blockbuster from June 18. It's his receipt showing rental of
"Jumper" and.. (objection) #CaseyAnthony
08:14:35 Date on receipt is actually June 16 at 7:58pm (June 18 was due date). #CaseyAnthony
accompanied Lazzaro to Blockbuster, he says.
08:16:59 Now asks Lazzaro about July 16 2008. Was home w/ Nate, playing X-Box. #CaseyAnthony was
also there; had been all day.
08:17:54 (The date is actually July 15, and George corrects it). Lazzaro says Amy came to the door.
#CaseyAnthony and Amy walked out with each other.
08:18:36 Shortly after, door flung open, #CaseyAnthony came in and Cindy was at the door. Invited her
in. Casey and Cindy yelling at each other.
08:19:25 Cindy told Casey to get her stuff and #CaseyAnthony said no, she was coming back. Then they
left. He thought Casey was in trouble.
08:20:30 Waited a while, called and realized her phone still at apt. #CaseyAnthony So he called Amy.
Deputy arrived at his home later.

08:21:36 He gave deputy #CaseyAnthony's cell phone. Deputy left and came back a 2nd time within an
hour. Allowed deputy to search apartment.
08:22:16 The deputy was there maybe half hour and didn't take anything with him. Lee showed up at his
apt later. #CaseyAnthony
08:23:41 Lee was concerned. He gave Lee a duffel bag of #CaseyAnthony's clothes and her laptop. He
specifically asked for those things.
08:24:37 Neither Lee, Tony nor the deputy packed the duffel. It was already packed. Deputy put it on
table to look through it. #CaseyAnthony
08:25:40 Lazzaro said he was taken aback, very surprised upon learning what was going on.
#CaseyAnthony texted him July 16th.
08:26:56 George shows him document that Lazzaro IDs as texts between him and #CaseyAnthony from
morning of July 16 2008.
08:28:52 1st text: 6:48am "I'm so sorry for not telling you what happened. We need to talk; love you more
than you know." #CaseyAnthony
08:29:25 His text to her: "Where is Caylee?" CA: "I honestly don't know." #CaseyAnthony
08:30:40 He was upset and angry at that time, he says. "I am the worst fucking person in entire world"
she said in another text. #CaseyAnthony
08:31:30 6:54am Tony said "Why wouldn't you tell me? Why would you lie to me that she was fine
w/nanny?" #CaseyAnthony
08:31:59 She texted that she didn't tell him because how would it look to have left her daughter with
psycho. #CaseyAnthony
08:32:22 Tony texted that he hoped Caylee was ok and that he was going to do whatever he could to
help LE find her. #CaseyAnthony
08:32:56 CA: "I am dumbest person and worst mother. I honestly hate myself." #CaseyAnthony
08:33:45 She goes on to say she hopes he can forgive her. He asks her who is this "Zanny" the nanny
person. #CaseyAnthony
08:34:12 "Someone I met thru friend 4 yrs ago; used to be my buddy Jeff's nanny before she became
mine," CA texted him. #CaseyAnthony
08:35:38 Lazzaro: Where did you drop off Caylee last time you saw her? #CaseyAnthony: At her apt at
bottom of stairs, at Sawgrass Apts.
08:36:16 #CaseyAnthony: Have told and shown police apartment. Drove out there w/2 diff officers, just
got back from 2nd drive.
08:36:50 #CaseyAnthony: If they don't find her, guess who gets blamed and spends an eternity in jail. He
asked why she didn't say something sooner.
08:37:39 "Was scared to admit it, scared something would happen to my baby," #CaseyAnthony texted to
Lazzaro.
08:38:18 He spoke immediately after the texts with her. Called her and asked where Caylee was.
#CaseyAnthony said, "I don't know." He was angry.
08:39:01 He felt lied to, betrayed, everything at once. He asked her, "How do you not know where your
daughter is?" #CaseyAnthony said "I just don't"
08:39:31 After a while of asking and not getting anything other than "I don't know," he got frustrated, told
her had class and hung up. #CaseyAnthony
08:41:00 Cross exam, Baez. Conversations were bizarre? Yes. Almost a slap in the face to reality? Yes,
sir. #CaseyAnthony

08:42:55 Full Sail paper was from garbage? Yes. Dumpster at your apt was located at front exit? Yes.
You lived further back? Yes. #CaseyAnthony
08:43:21 So you had to walk a ways or put it in car? Correct. Witness excused. #CaseyAnthony
08:43:39 The state calls CINDY ANTHONY as its next witness. #CaseyAnthony
08:45:25 Cindy gives address. Says she's lived there since Oct 1989 with her family. #CaseyAnthony
08:46:58 Talks about having lived in OH prior to 1989. She started working in FL within a month of
moving there. #CaseyAnthony
08:49:02 Cindy is very subdued, lowkey in her testimony. She said Hidden Oaks Elementary was opened
the year #CaseyAnthony started kindergarten.
08:49:24 Hidden Oaks is about a 5 min walk from their home. Both kids rode their bikes to school at
times. #CaseyAnthony
08:50:27 August 9 2005, Caylee was born. She found out #CaseyAnthony was pregnant on June 30
when Casey came to Cindy's work and told her.
08:51:42 The wedding of her bro took place June 5 in Myrtle Beach. She wasn't suspicious of her being
pregnant til day of wedding. #CaseyAnthony
08:52:11 She says #CaseyAnthony had always had trouble with her periods and had been having some
issues prior to that.
08:53:08 Cindy says she and #CaseyAnthony both experienced severe bloating with their periods. Says
Casey was sedentary and had put on weight.
08:54:16 She gained about only 15 lbs with pregnancy, Cindy says. Cindy wasn't trying to hide from
people that #CaseyAnthony was pregnant.
08:54:59 She says they planned shower, called the whole family to let them know. Told #CaseyAnthony
they'd provide for her, help her out.
08:55:56 They went shopping for baby items, turned computer room into nursery. #CaseyAnthony was
already 7 mos. They chose Winnie the Pooh theme.
08:57:06 Pooh had always been a favorite theme of #CaseyAnthony. Photo of Caylee's bed shown.
Cindy cries as she IDs it. (Lots of pooh decor.)
09:00:05 There was a Pooh theme throughout the room - curtains, sheets, baby blankets. (Cindy very,
very emotional.) #CaseyAnthony
09:02:15 LDB shows diagram of layout of Anthony home. Cindy shows where nursery/Caylee's bedroom

09:03:52 Cindy points out sliding glass doors that lead to patio, back yard. There's a lock, but no bars.
#CaseyAnthony
09:04:45 They keep front door deadbolted all the time; unless someone comes to that door, they don't
use it. Enter thru garage instead. #CaseyAnthony

09:25:05 The playhouse was a gift for Caylee's 2nd birthday. They gave it to her a month early so she
could have it for her party. #CaseyAnthony
09:26:09 Cindy and Lee went to purchase the playhouse. Playhouse had pavers for the floor so Caylee
wouldn't have to sit on grass. #CaseyAnthony

left stand). Casey looks very upset!
09:32:38 She appears very frustrated in her demeanor (vs. a sad type of tears). Whatever it is, she's
really worked up. #CaseyAnthony
09:34:04 Wonder if she's protesting that her mom intentionally made no mention of her being in on
buying/setting up Caylee's playhouse. #CaseyAnthony

09:48:52 Cindy says the lock on the sliding door handle flips up and down. Each of sliding doors also has
screen behind them. #CaseyAnthony
09:49:32 They would leave screen open if going in and out a lot so they didn't have to open 2 doors to go
in and out; just depended. #CaseyAnthony

there entire life.

09:58:34 Prior to June 2008, Caylee was not away from home for extended periods. Cindy never went
more than 24 hrs w/o seeing her. #CaseyAnthony
09:59:49 Cindy took week of her birthday off in 2008. She spent most of it w/Caylee, but not as much as
she wanted. #CaseyAnthony
10:00:31 Caylee was with Cindy of Father's Day 2008. George had to work and kids had plans, so she
took Caylee to visit Cindy's dad. #CaseyAnthony
10:01:03 Did you think kids working that day? I thought #CaseyAnthony was. Lee had already moved out,
so he & Mallory probably had plans.
10:01:55 They went to Mt Dora to see Cindy's dad from late morning til mid-afternoon. #CaseyAnthony
10:03:09 Cindy took photo & video of Caylee at nursing home. Cindy IDs photo of Caylee (sitting at table,
smiling, with coloring book). #CaseyAnthony
10:04:29 How tall was Caylee? She was over 3 ft -- somewhere between 38-40", top of her head just
above my waistline. #CaseyAnthony
10:04:52 Thinks she might've weighed around 30 lbs; could still carry her if she needed to.
#CaseyAnthony
10:05:36 They went to have lunch w/Cindy's mom after nursing home. Returned to their own home
around 4:30. #CaseyAnthony
10:06:18 Caylee wanted to swim, and Cindy told her she had to eat first since she didn't eat well at
Cindy's mom's. #CaseyAnthony
10:07:35 They went swimming after. Access is via a removable exterior ladder that attaches to pool.
#CaseyAnthony
10:08:35 They would lay ladder on its side beside pool for convenient access to it. #CaseyAnthony
10:09:53 The pool ladder might be a little taller than Cindy, she says. It's heavy enough small child
couldn't lift. #CaseyAnthony
10:10:56 Cindy would stand behind Caylee and hold onto her as she climbed steps to pool; then Cindy
would get in and help her come in. #CaseyAnthony
10:12:43 Father's Day, they two of them in pool at least an hour. Caylee wore life jacket over her bathing
suit. #CaseyAnthony
10:13:51 #CaseyAnthony came home while they were swimming; didn't get in pool w/them. Cindy said it
was time for Caylee's bath. #CaseyAnthony
10:14:31 Cindy said she told #CaseyAnthony to get Caylee ready for the bath. Casey waited for Caylee
with towel for her.
10:15:23 It was an emotional, special evening. Recalls like it happened yesterday, Cindy says. Week
prior hospice called in for her dad #CaseyAnthony
10:15:53 She wanted to document day b/c she didn't know if that would be last time Caylee would see
him. She told #CaseyAnthony about photos.
10:16:24 Three of them watched videos together. She and #CaseyAnthony cried; Caylee didn't
understand, but special moment among them. #CaseyAnthony
10:17:30 She doesn't recall if the videos were transferred to the computer at that time but thinks they
probably were. #CaseyAnthony
10:17:53 GA got home after they'd gone to bed (she goes to work early on Mondays). #CaseyAnthony
10:18:44 After June 15 2008, she never saw her granddaughter again. #CaseyAnthony
10:19:31 When she left for work next morning, believed Caylee to be in the house. Also believed

#CaseyAnthony had a job as event planner at Univ.

10:20:27 Did you believe this because that's what she told you? Yes. Any evidence that led you to believe
it? Her lanyard she'd wear. #CaseyAnthony
10:20:46 She saw text msgs from boss and emails from work, Cindy says. #CaseyAnthony
10:21:40 #CaseyAnthony had a photo ID Universal name tag on shamrock lanyard.
10:22:30 Had seen #CaseyAnthony at work before with her nametag/ID when she visited Universal,
before Caylee was born.
10:23:29 She believed #CaseyAnthony went back to work after Caylee was born. You believed that b/c of
lanyard? No, because she was employed then.
10:24:14 #CaseyAnthony apparently lost her job there but then convinced her mother a few mos later she
was working there again.
10:24:44 Cindy saw emails from Hard Rock Cafe. Said #CaseyAnthony had some relationship w/them in
coordinating events for Universal.
10:25:41 Was from email #CaseyAnthony printed and showed her. Casey took info from email and went
to "work" while Cindy watched Caylee.
10:59:38 Test
11:09:07 Court resumes and Cindy Anthony is back on the stand. #CaseyAnthony
11:10:35 Sidebar! Go refill your cups if you need to, should have time. ;-)
11:12:03 LDB continues direct exam. You were sleeping with a teddy bear? Yes. Did you discover teddy
bear missing at some point? #CaseyAnthony
11:12:41 Yes, few days later she found it missing. Had you told #CaseyAnthony you were sleeping with
teddy? Yes, at some point I did, maybe later tho
11:13:56 June 25-27 (Wed-Fri of 2nd week they were gone), did you see them? No. Did you expect to
after Zanny hospital stay resolved? #CaseyAnthony
11:14:36 Zanny got sick in the hospital; they brought Zanny back to the Hard Rock hotel in Miami. Hoped
to see them Friday. #CaseyAnthony
11:15:29 She was hoping #CaseyAnthony would come straight to the office w/Caylee, but it never
happened b/c Casey was called in to work 4 debriefing
11:16:36 So Cindy was supposed to see them later that evening. But #CaseyAnthony said her friend Jeff
was in town, wanted to know how Zanny was.
11:17:17 #CaseyAnthony thought it'd be fun for Caylee to see Jeff's son, Zachary. "Jeffrey was very close
to Zanny," Cindy says.
11:18:04 Never met Jeff Hopkins. Numerous times they were supposed to from fall of 2006 til fall 2007,
but never did. #CaseyAnthony
11:19:23 Christmas time, #CaseyAnthony, Cindy, Caylee supposed to meet Jeff's mom at mall with his
son Zachary, but didn't (Zach had asthma attack).
11:20:13 Jeff was staying at hotel down by park. #CaseyAnthony was going to have dinner w/him and
come home late night w/Caylee, but didn't.
11:21:05 Cindy says it's because Jeff had trust fund and had suite and invited Zanny, #CaseyAnthony
and Caylee to stay the night/go to Univ next day.
11:21:59 "I never had control of #CaseyAnthony was she was 21 as far as her comings and goings."
Caylee was her daughter, could do whatever.
11:22:21 "She was a young woman who needed to move on w/her life, and I'm not going to interfere with
that." #CaseyAnthony

11:23:06 Cindy was off work week of June 30 til the Mon after July 4 weekend. #CaseyAnthony
11:24:21 I wasn't sitting home all this time waiting for them to come home; Geo & I went to beach, etc.
#CaseyAnthony
11:24:51 Says she had daily communication with #CaseyAnthony during time period either via phone call
or text message.
11:25:40 Week of June 30, did you find out if they were still at Hard Rock Hotel in Orlando? Thought
#CaseyAnthony back to work Mon/Caylee w/Zanny.
11:26:11 She was expecting to watch Caylee on vacation but can't remember what excuse
#CaseyAnthony gave her, whether hanging with Jeffrey or not.
11:27:30 Cindy told #CaseyAnthony she'd watch Caylee while on vacation since Zanny hurt. But Casey
was involved with Make A Wish thru work...
11:28:05 ...told Cindy she thought Caylee would enjoy it. Cindy wanted to go & #CaseyAnthony said no,
closed event.
11:29:41 Universal is abt 20-30 mins frm Anthony home. Cindy decided on July 3 to drive out there b/c
#CaseyAnthony said she was there at time.
11:30:39 Cindy wanted to talk to #CaseyAnthony about some money issues. Cindy went to guest
services in park thinking she could talk to her.
11:31:15 She also wanted to pick up Caylee at that point. She called #CaseyAnthony, told her she was
there, and Casey told her she wasn't there.
11:31:56 #CaseyAnthony told Cindy she was in Jax, followed Jeff back there to his condo, trying to
rekindle their relationship.
11:32:38 (At first little aggravating all the extra detail Cindy gives, but guess it's good to know extent of
fibs #CaseyAnthony told her.)
11:33:13 Cindy realized #CaseyAnthony had lied to her for past couple days, saying she was at work at
Universal when she was really in Jax.
11:33:34 Cindy "had her reservations" about whether #CaseyAnthony was telling truth about being in Jax.
11:34:52 Still at Universal, Cindy reached out to a friend of #CaseyAnthony's in Jax to see if she'd seen
him. Friend said contacted him, coming.
11:35:22 So Cindy shifted her thinking back to believing she was in Jax, she said. #CaseyAnthony (Lee
hadn't spoken to Casey in few days, either.)
11:36:30 Cindy created myspace acct. Lee told her he'd seen some stuff on #CaseyAnthony's myspace
that she might be downtown during July 4.
11:37:09 Lee tried to track #CaseyAnthony down that way. Cindy felt betrayed that Casey might be lying
to her. She vented by creating myspace page.
11:38:01 She thought if she posted it & asked #CaseyAnthony to friend her, Casey would be only one to
see it. Was way for Casey to know how she felt.
11:40:09 LDB shows her copy of myspace post. Photo was placed later, but text/date of post accurate.
#CaseyAnthony Defense objects to introduction.
11:46:43 Objection was sustained...guess the post itself won't come into evidence. #CaseyAnthony
11:47:44 Cindy says few days til #CaseyAnthony realized she'd made the myspace. Cindy asked why she
didn't respond; CA said b/c Cin being hard on her
11:56:44 After a sidebar, judge releases the jury until Tues morning at 9:00. #CaseyAnthony
11:58:46 Cindy & George's atty has a motion before the court. Defense objects. Motion will be heard
Tues morning. #CaseyAnthony
