I don't know which disgusts me more, a mother who has possibly killed her child & doesn't report it for a month, or grandparents who has possibly helped her. I hope there's a special ring in hell for both types.

I knew the grandparents were in this.

One question, and probably a stupid one, but why can't Casey get the maximum death penalty? I heard that the maximum sentence for her is life in prison. I'm not for the death penalty, but I just want to know.

There was a plea on the table, and I've heard both that it can be taken off, and that it can't.

I'm no expert on criminal procedure, but I believe a plea (and plea agreement, for that matter), can be withdrawn until it is accepted by the court.

You know, at first I thought there might be a plea, but then I remembered of all of the lies Casey has told and all of the goose-chases there have been. Why on earth would the prosecutors believe anything she would say in order to avoid the death penalty?

Maybe cause the case isn't 100% solid. The fact that the police were notified at least 3 times that Caylee's body was found (although they didnt know it was a body at the time) before they "investigated" isn't good. Plus they really can't prove what exactly happened to Caylee---there isn't any damage to the bones.

The plea bargain might be the only way they'll be able to convict Casey.

Not making a judgment on guilt or innocence, but I think it'd be pretty difficult for her to find a fair and impartial jury at this point...

That's kind of the goal of the police when they leak things to those Nancy Grace types, eh?

I could actually see the defense using that sort of desperate ploy by the state in their closing arguments.

From what I have heard on the local news coupled with some understanding of Florida law, I don't think they could give the death penalty without a body. Now thats not a problem.......This sickens me so much......

They also have to determine if it was pre-meditated.

In a really twisted way, I am glad that the body is Caylee. It was pretty much a given that Caylee was gone and now maybe she can rest in peace.

Also, if it wasn't Caylee, that means it belonged to some other poor child.

There's a theory that Casey's BROTHER is the biological father. Hence the name "Caylee" - his name is Lee.

*bump*

It looks like the death penalty is back on the table.

I'm usually not for the death penalty, but this woman deserves it.

hijack

If Terry Nichols (one of the OKC bombers) didn't get the death penalty, why should this lady?
