CASEY SPENDING DAY AT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE

Casey Anthony was at her lawyer's office in Osceola County on Tuesday afternoon and she could be enjoying her last few hours of the limited freedom she now has. She is a suspect in the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee, Caylee's body has never been found.

Channel 9 reported that chloroform was found in the trunk of Casey's car and jurors will hear how investigators found that potentially deadly chemical in the same spot where Caylee's body had been at one point.

Casey and her mother, Cindy, left their east Orange County home Tuesday morning. She arrived at the office of her lawyer, Jose Baez around 11:00am. Even on a day when the Grand Jury is deciding her fate, Casey had nothing to say.

Cindy dropped Casey off at Jose Baez's office around 10:45am. Cindy left and then returned with paperwork, but neither said a word to reporters.

Casey appeared to be dressed more formally than normal, in pin-stripped slacks and a button-down shirt. There's no telling if her attorney suggested that attire because of the possibility that she could soon be appearing in another mug shot.

One topic of conversation Tuesday might be who would represent her in a murder trial. Jose Baez does not meet the usual criteria for a lead council on a capital murder case, but there is a new attorney on the case, too, Jonathan Kasen out of south Florida. He could become the lead.

Of course, in the end, Casey can insist that Baez represent her. She just has to be told before the court that he's unqualified.

As for a potential arrest Tuesday, Casey's scheduled to be home by 4:00pm. If an arrest warrant is issued before then, Orange County could call Osceola County and ask that deputies pick her up at her attorney's office or Baez could negotiate a surrender at the Orange County jail.

What's up with the that girl and pin-striped pants?   


And I wonder what her reply will be to being told JB is unqualified?  "That's okay - it'll be grounds for appeal"?

Rob..(if you are still here)
After hearing all the evidence, does that Grand Jury just take a single vote?  If all the witnesses take an hour we are in for a long day!

They will take one vote of all jurors. They will not be voting on each witness or the testimony on the evidence they each present, but collectively as a whole to the overall charge on murder one.

It will be a majority rule type situation.

Sorry to disagree, but it is my understanding that 12 jurors must agree to return a true bill in Florida.

my understanding is there are 19 jurors - 12 of those jurors must agree. So in a sense it is majority rule... but not a straight 51-49% vote.

it can not be 10 to 9 or 11 to 8.

A Grand Jury ruling is not based on majority in Florida. They must have 12 votes (or more) to get a true bill.

You guys are confusing me!  Is that not what Rob just stated? 
Would they announce if it was a unanimous decision?  Just curious.

  I KNOW - I KNOW - Let's order pizza while we wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Sorry couldn't resist!

[klaasend]

Klaas, can you start a poll before the insurance guy gets there?

Who thinks Casey will be indicted?

POLL AT THE TOP OF THE THREAD. 

[klaasend]

I KNOW - I KNOW - Let's order pizza while we wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Sorry couldn't resist!

[CynInOregon]

I take it Casey is not at the court house?
I just watched George and his attorney, and seems to me maybe George is about to tell some truths?

[SunnyinTX]

11:18 a.m.: Thanks to all who are posting comments and asking questions. Here are some answers to what several are asking:

/ If the grand jury hands up a true bill to indict, it is likely Casey Anthony would be arrested immediately. She also would be arrested before we all get news of what exactly is in the indictment. It is keep sealed until the person indicted is arrested.

/ Once the arrest is made, a judge reads the charges from the indictment.

/ You likely won’t see transcripts of the testimony until they are made public as part of the discovery process, similar to other evidence and transcripts that have been made public in this case.

Well, I hope they have some cameras at JB's office, cause that's where she is at. The LE should have a dozen cars with all lights and sirens on converge on the building and scare the beejeebers out of her. Maybe they will have their rifles trained on her as she exits the building! We can only hope.

Since they are prepared for a true bill, it wouldn't surprise me that JB has already made arrangements to turn her in....quietly with no fan fare....I hope not..cause I want to see her arrested..

you guys, I need a nerve pill....

Hold on I will run and get you one of Cindy's valumes that Casey takes....brb...you stay right there!

[Anninflorida]

Not sure if this has been posted, as I have been out of the office and unable to catch up.....

George Anthony and his high-profile defense attorney, Mark NeJame walked up to the Orange County Courthouse just after 9:00am. George gave a brief statement before heading inside to testify before the grand jury and asked for prayer.

Watch Brief Statements
"This is going to be very hard for me to do. The focus has always been on my granddaughter and always will be. I love my daughter, I love my wife, I love my son. I want everyone to have prayer for all of us today, especially for my granddaughter. If someone could take a moment out at 11 o'clock this morning and 11 o'clock tonight and just pray for her. That's all I'm asking for. That's all I can say," George said Tuesday morning.

NeJame said his client is doing something incomprehensible Tuesday.

"And that is to testify before a grand jury, considering their investigation and their consideration of homicide charges against his daughter," NeJame said.

NeJame tried to by-pass the long line of people waiting to get inside, but he was turned away.

"My sergeant said that he would have to wait in line like everyone else. And we don't mind doing that," a deputy outside the courthouse told Eyewitness News.

The Grand Jury will decide whether or not to hand up murder or manslaughter charges against Casey Anthony. FBI investigators, Orange County sheriff's deputies, George Anthony and several other key witnesses will all testify. They will tell the Grand Jury everything they know about the case of missing Caylee Anthony.

Just before 10:45am, after testifying for about an hour, George Anthony left the courthouse with his attorney. The Grand Jury then took a short break around 10:40am, before an Orange County cadaver dog deputy entered to testify around 10:50am.

Did part of the fence get removed in on the right side of the house in front of the shed? I dont remember seeing the shed stick out like that.

[KnayKnay]

Wonder if she has the audacity to wear the same pin-striped pants her mom washed during the time Caylee was missing? That would sure chap my butt!!!!!!!!

POLL AT THE TOP OF THE THREAD. 

Ok..who answered no??  LOL Sorry I know everyone is thinking it.

[Kristin]

Ok I know George is not a favorite here, but he looked absolutely devastated, like he wanted to break down and cry. I actually felt bad for him.I wonder what he really knows.
