I
believed Casey Anthony to be guilty of murdering her child until
learning more of the details. Now I believe it to be more probable
that she did not do it.
Listening
to the woman who claimed to be George Anthony's mistress, I found
her to appear to be telling the truth. She said that he confided in
her, that the child's death was an accident that snowballed out of
control. The defense claimed that Casey was abused by her father and
that her father found her child dead in the pool, from a drowning
and scared Casey to the point of covering up the death of the child.
The
defense claimed that Casey's father had a type of control over her,
which is common with sexual abuse. They explained Casey's behavior
after the child's death, was the same type of behavior that abused
children learn in order to survive the emotional trauma of being
abused; they learn how to go about their lives in a manner as if
nothing has happened out of the ordinary.
So
why did she say nice things to her father while she was in prison
over that phone. It is also very common for a victim of child abuse
to still love that parent and not want that parent to be hurt. It is
not as odd, as you might think. The abuser is still the father. And
as the old song goes, "Will A Little More Love Make It Right?"
--Abused children tend to believe that they can some how love that
parent into being a good and loving parent.
George
Anthony attempted suicide after his granddaughter's remains were
found. Why? Why did he do that? Was he scared that something would
be learned from those remains, something that would incriminate
him?
Why
was the son left out of the family when the child was born? Why was
Casey raised to be such a liar? Why did the Casey's mom call the
cops on a smelly trunk that turned out be from garbage, instead of
confronting her daughter first? Why would Casey's mom have not known
all along that there was no nanny, as Casey lived home with her? And
why would Casey's mom have ever let it go longer than a day, much
less a month?
I
have a new thought on what happened to the child. I believe that
George Anthony sexually abused his granddaughter and that she got
hurt, and or that she was going to tell on him and that he killed
her by drowning her. Then he used his intimidation abilities on his
daughter, Casey, claiming it was an accident and got her to help him
cover it up and lie to the cops when they found the remains. I
believe that wife figured it out and not wanting to face the truth
of her husband, tried to blame the daughter with the smelly trunk. I
believe that George Anthony feared there being proof of sexual
abuse, when the remains of the body were found and tried to kill
himself.
And
I believe that the District Attorney would be wise to explore at
least the possibility that George Anthony killed his
granddaughter.
