Jury consultant on In Session is saying Casey turned to Cindy and George when she was leaving courtroom and said to Mommy Dearest......"Happy Mother's Day, I love you"
Wonder what they bribed Casey with to do that, tons of snack cakes, pens and paper?
No kidding.  And why now after all these months of her snubbing them.

Next time she'll prolly blow mums & daddums kisses.   What a performance.

Im back from Jersey & catching up on the late side.   My take on your question Ono is the defense reads that the public is noticing her NOT acknowledging her parents, so she was told to do so.   This is all in line with their fight to keep their mitigation counselor that has been working on the case & during trial attempting to pass Casey off in a better light.   Casey looked absolutely stewed today & she had many reasons why, being forced to acknowledge her parents being one & the fact that it is slowly dawning on her that she is not going to get away with murder.   She is not going to have her trial "at the beach."

As far as the change of venue is concerned, if you look way back CJBP did exactly what I thought would and should happen in this case.   He granted a change of venue to the extent that he & the attorneys will travel to an undisclosed county to conduct voir dire (jury selection), when selected they will be bused to Orange County to be sequestered & a gag order for the attorneys will go in Order.  The trial itself being held in Orange County - mainly due to cost & the tremendous amount of witnesses, attorneys along with staff, etc. having to go to another county would be way too costly, as if it isnt going to be a hefty cost to Flordia taxpayers as is...then again this defense insisted on having Casey deemed indigent, yup be careful what you ask for.   Bozo flat out lied in court today about not being recognized in Miami/Dade& I can prove it, that was exactly why he pandered to the Hispanic news network, why he went to Miami several times (he has friends there) and not only that but he did an interview from Miami with Whoraldo.   His entire argument regarding him not being recognized was so self-serving & off the mark anyways.   He also said on local news & national news previously that he was looking for a specific demographic & let's not forget his ridiculous statement about being the first Hispanic lead attorney blah blah blah.  There are thousands of high profile cases heard all the time with high profile attorneys (actually worth their law degree) that are nationwide recognized & that NEVER is the consideration that carries the day on a change of venue.  1`

Casey Anthony: Casey Anthony says ‘Happy Mother’s Day’ and ‘I love you’ to Cindy

The change of venue decision in the Casey Anthony case was the top story on noon newscasts.

“Casey Anthony will stand trial in Orange County, but the jury will come from somewhere else,” WFTV-Channel 9 anchor Barbara West said. “However, it will be a while before we know where. Chief Judge Belvin Perry said today he wants to keep it a secret as long as possible.”

Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee.

WKMG-Channel 6’s Mike DeForest noted that Anthony made eye contact with her mother, Cindy Anthony, when leaving the courtroom. “Casey Anthony smiled at her mom and said, ‘Happy Mother’s Day,’ ” DeForest said. “That’s one of the very first times we’ve ever seen Casey Anthony try to communicate with her parents in court.”

WESH-Channel 2’s Bob Kealing said that Cindy and George Anthony arrived at the 90-minute hearing about 30 minutes late. “At the end of the hearing, their daughter told her mother, Cindy, ‘Happy Mother’s Day and I love you,’ ” Kealing said.

DeForest noted that the most significant development in court was Perry’s announcement that he would grant the defense’s motion for a change of venue.  “Normally, that would mean holding the trial elsewhere, out of town,” DeForest said. “But the judge said it would be cheaper to move 18 jurors here than move several hundred witnesses, attorneys and court personnel to another city.”

WESH’s Kealing reported that the jurors will be picked elsewhere, brought to Orange County and sequestered for as long as the trial goes.

What’s next? A hearing on the death penalty Tuesday morning. Kealing highlighted that Andrea Lyon will argue for the defense.

“Casey Anthony’s defense team [will be] arguing that the death penalty is unconstitutional, it’s being unfairly applied in this case, it’s unfair to women,” WKMG’s DeForest said.


O yea, Casey was instructed to tell her mother Happy Mother's Day and I love you, the same woman she adamantly spoke of despising often & resented her relationship to Caylee - guess what defense team we're not buying it neither will the jury.  Casey established her true feelings about her parents & it is part of the record, what she does in court now will be transparent to all.

Casey Anthony case: Her defense takes aim at death penalty
Casey Anthony's legal team will argue several reasons why the death penalty should be off the table, including one about the "inherent bias" against women who are accused of violent crimes.
 By Sarah Lundy, Orlando Sentinel

6:59 a.m. EDT, May 11, 2010
Today's hearing in the Casey Anthony case will be devoted to death-penalty issues.

Starting at 9 a.m., her legal team will argue various motions on why the 24-year-old should not face capital punishment as a potential sentence if she is convicted.

Casey Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee Marie. A grand jury indicted her in October 2008 — three months before Caylee's remains were found in woods close to her family home.

The medical examiner ruled her death a homicide but could not determine how the girl died.

Initially, prosecutors decided not to seek the death penalty. They changed their minds after the girl's remains were found, announcing their plans to seek the ultimate punishment in April 2009.

The trial is set for May 2011.

Defense attorney Andrea Lyon, a DePaul University law-school professor and nationally-known death penalty expert, joined Anthony's legal team last year. She will handle a bulk of the motions today.

Today's hearing is scheduled to cover these issues:

•Gender-biased motives in seeking death
Anthony's legal team argues the state is unfairly seeking the death penalty against their client. The defense claims there is "inherent bias" against women who are accused of violent crimes, especially those accused of killing their children.

The defense points out how the state fails to seek the death penalty against many men accused of killing children.

"Societal biases against women provide the state with a way of deflecting attention away from the insufficiency of the evidence in Miss Anthony's case," according to defense motion.

•Automatic appeal of death sentence

A defendant who is sentenced to death automatically gets a direct appeal to the Florida Supreme Court. The defense claims the state's top court can't meaningfully review the case without a report written by a "capital jury," which is not required by law.

•Legal details on why state is seeking death

Casey Anthony's attorneys want prosecutors to give the legal reasons — called "statutory aggravators" — why the state seeks to execute their client.

The law requires a jury to weigh certain factors, such as the victim is younger than 12 and the murder is premeditated, that make a defendant eligible for the death penalty.

The defense wants to know what "aggravating circumstances" the state will try to prove during sentencing. This will allow her defense to fully prepare their side.
• No info revealed related to a potential penalty phase of trial

If someone is convicted of murder, the case moves to the penalty phase. That's when the defense tells a jury reasons why the defendant should not get the death penalty but be sentenced to life in prison.

Casey Anthony's attorneys want Perry to issue an order protecting Anthony from having to "reveal any information relating to any potential penalty phase proceeding to the state prior to the time she is actually convicted of first-degree murder."

• Prosecutors' motives to seek death

The state initially announced it wasn't going to seek capital punishment. Four months after Caylee's remains were found, prosecutors changed their minds and stated they would seek death.

Her defense questions their motives.

Death cases are different —they require death-penalty qualified attorneys, they cost more money and take longer to go to trial. Casey Anthony had to hire another attorney because her retained lawyer, Jose Baez, was not qualified to be lead attorney.

"The prosecution knew this would financially break the defense," the defense wrote in the motion.

Casey Anthony death penalty?

Updated: Tuesday, 11 May 2010, 6:57 AM EDT
Published : Tuesday, 11 May 2010, 6:25 AM EDT

By NICK FOKIANOS | FOX 35 News

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) - Casey Anthony is expected to be back in front of an Orange County judge today.

Watch the hearing LIVE>>>

Today we could learn whether her attorneys can turn the judge away from the death penalty in her case.

Anthony's attorneys say the law is unconstitutional in this case and not-applicable.

The defense claims there is only circumstantial evidence linking Casey to Caylee's murder.

Her attorneys want the court to make the prosecution prove it has enough evidence to warrant the possibility of the death penalty.

Before Caylee's remains were found prosecutors had taken the death penalty off the table. But after that fateful day in December of 2008, the State Attorney's Office changed their mind.
 

During yesterday's hearing, it was decided that jurors in the trial will be picked from outside Orlando and then brought back to Central Florida for the trial.
Chief Judge Belivin Perry said he will grant a change of venue motion at the appropriate time. Once the judge picks a location, he will tell the attorneys and then place a gag order on them.

Anthony's attorney Jose Baez had argued that Orlando-area residents had been tainted by negative media exposure.

Baez then argued for pictures of Anthony partying, supposedly during the time that Caylee was missing, to be sealed.  Judge Perry deferred a decision on that motion, asking both parties to work together on which photos they intend to use.

Click here to see some of the discovery photos >>>

Near the conclusion of the hearing, Baez played a video which included clips from several television outlets in the Orlando area as well as individual video blogs, coverage he described as a media "frenzy."  There were some technical difficulties during the playback of the video and the video appeared pixelated at times.
Last week Judge Belvin Perry denied a request from Anthony's attorney to seal all records related to the public funding of her defense.

Judge Perry said Anthony's attorney failed to prove that releasing the information would jeopardize her right to a fair trial. Jose Baez had argued that making the records public could reveal strategy and the type of expert witnesses the defense is hiring.

Anthony has been declared indigent, allowing public money to pay for expert witnesses and other costs but not attorney fees.
Anthony's murder trial is set to begin on May 9, 2011. All depositions of witnesses are to be completed by October 31, 2010. She remains jailed on a charge of first-degree murder in the death of her daughter Caylee who was last seen in June of 2008, but she was not reported missing until a month later. Her remains were found in woods near the family's home on December 11, 2008. Investigators say the toddler's body was found with duct tape over her mouth.

Casey Death Penalty Hearing Slated For 9 A.M.
Defense Says Prosecution Only Looking To Drain Anthony's Funds
POSTED: 6:28 am EDT May 11, 2010
UPDATED: 6:48 am EDT May 11, 2010
ORLANDO, Fla. --
Prosecutors in case against Casey Anthony will argue the death penalty in a hearing Tuesday morning.

At the top of their list of reasons, prosecutors cite that Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee.

They also say Anthony should face the death penalty because the crime committed involved aggravated child abuse.

Anthony's defense has filed several anti-death penalty motions. They believe prosecutors are seeking the death penalty because it would drain Anthony's defense fund.
Attorney Jeff Dowdy has defended a number of high-profile death penalty cases. He said they are costly.

"The whole case in its entirety cost $1.1 million," Dowdy said.

In March of last year, Anthony's defense team revealed behind closed doors how much money she had and where it came from.

Since then, Anthony has successfully petitioned the court to be declared indigent.

Dowdy said her defense is being paid by taxpayers, so money should not be an issue.

Tuesday's hearing starts at 9 a.m. at the Orange County courthouse.

Anthony is being held on no bond at the Orange County jail charged with murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee.

Caylee's remains were found in a wooded area near the Anthony family home in December 2008.

Anthony maintains a nanny by the name of Zenaida Gonzalez kidnapped Caylee, then 2 years old.

Anthony's trial is set to start in May 2011.

After seeing it for myself I noticed at the end of the hearing Cindy telling Holly Bristow (6) what Casey said to her & then smiled, Holly patted Cindy on the shoulder...gag me.  It was clear that Bozo & Casey exchanged words as to when or what to say to Cindy & it came off as unnatural.  I also noticed that the Anthonys did not wheel their attorney out like they have been repetitively, Cindy gave a hug & George exchanged a few pleasantries but they left him to wheel himself which he has been perfectly capable of doing all along.

The tape that Bozo provided in his argument stupidly included a few glimpses of the Anthonys fighting with protesters which doesnt paint them in a decent light as just "victims."   Other than that the video was worthless & LB responded as usual professionally & on point.   Bozo did not disappoint being an embarrassment to the legal community, good God my dog could have presented a more succinct argument!   When Bozo argued that the "party pics" paint Casey in a bad light, he is skimming over the fact that they are being considered to exhibit that  Casey was NOT looking for a missing child nor cared to.  Wait until the prosecution plays the surveillance video of Casey at Blockbuster with Tony on the evening of 6/16 or questions via the tattoo parlor employees why in the world a frantic, worried mother would be taking the time to get a tattoo 7/2, especially considering what it states.  ""Quite frankly," Jose Baez is a dolt! 

Bozo yet again was too broad in what he wanted & from whom, obviously he has little to no idea what he is missing specifically nor does he seem to understand like it or not what is discoverable & what isnt, that motion is getting way old.    CJBP took him to task & will continue to do so, I can tell he's already fed up with this clown.   It is rather appalling that a co-counsel for the defense has to stand up and stipulate something the State prosecution is offering regarding discovery & its rules while mentioning that he realizes what they are aware of & yet the "author" of the motion did not...flippin ridiculous!

Casey's Defense Poised To Fight Death Penalty
Posted: 6:30 am EDT May 11, 2010Updated: 7:34 am EDT May 11, 2010
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Casey Anthony is expected back in an Orange County courtroom for a second consecutive day as her attorneys argue that she should not face the death penalty if she is convicted.

Casey's lawyers say the death penalty is unconstitutional, but previous presiding judge Stan Strickland refused to take it off the table.

The defense also believes the prosecutors in this case are pursuing the death penalty in order to force Casey to accept a plea.
On Monday, Casey's attorney Jose Baez did not want to bet on his chances that new presiding judge Belvin Perry will take the death penalty off the table.

"I'm not Las Vegas, or anything like that. I'm not a bookie, I couldn't' tell you," said Baez.

Tuesday morning, Baez will have to step aside because he is not qualified to try death penalty cases alone. Chicago-based attorney Andrea Lyon will once again fight to keep Casey from serving the death penalty if she is found guilty of murdering her daughter, Caylee.

"I completely and totally trust on her and her position," said Baez.

The defense's position is that Casey should not be put to death because prosecutors cannot prove she killed her daughter in a cold, calculated and premeditated manner.

However, prosecutors argue Caylee Anthony's killer had to use physical force or chemicals to subdue the child because otherwise she would have been able to remove the three pieces of duct tape found covering her nose and mouth.

The defense says, all that aside, the death penalty in Florida is flawed, but Casey's attorneys did not offer up specific reasons why.

"There are some serious problems with it. Obviously, the death penalty here doesn't work," said Baez.
Casey's defense team believes that jurors hearing death penalty cases are more likely to convict. However, to this point there has not been any mention of specific Florida cases that would back up that notion.

WFTV will be in the courtroom Tuesday morning and will have a full report on Eyewitness News at Noon.

Hey, I had an idea about how George and Cindy could have shined up their pathetic image and thrown CASEY under the bus!  If they had requested visits over and over, and been turned away, instead of blaming the media, they could have blamed Casey herself, or her overprotective attorney.  Remember when Casey refused to see Lee?  Cindy wanted to use the media to get Caylee's picture out there, and thought she could manipulate the public, instead she did exactly the opposite.  The media is generally hostile towards the A's.  Could these people be any more ineffectual?
(Sorry, just thoughts swirling around in my head, with an occaisional thunk, just like a tennis shoe in a dryer.)
