Casey Anthony’s Attorney Wants Trial Postponed

ORLANDO, Fla. — The case against Casey Anthony went back to court Wednesday morning, but without Casey Anthony. She did not attend the pre-trial hearing about the check fraud charges against her.

Casey’s accused of taking checks from her friend and going on a shopping spree at an Orange County Target.

During the hearing Wednesday morning, the defense told the judge it wants to dedicate its time and resources to Casey’s first-degree murder and aggravated child abuse case and also said it’s considering asking for a delay in that trial and also possibly for the trial to be moved, but hasn’t made those decisions yet.

The defense wants to put off Casey’s trial for grand theft and check fraud charges until after the murder trial and seemed to suggest that if Casey’s convicted on the more serious charges involving her daughter’s death, that the much less serious check charges might not matter anymore.

Prosecutors want to try the check charges first, possibly because the evidence is strong, with videotapes of her using stolen checks; then she might be going into the murder case with convictions on her record.

After the hearing, Casey’s defense attorneys said prosecutors are stalling in giving him all the evidence they have against her, particularly the thousands of tips that were called in about Caylee’s whereabouts. He said he’s gotten less than half of them so far.

“She says she gave the child to a babysitter that no one can find. Doesn’t the key lie with her? Why do you need to rely on stranger’s tips when she is the one who could really lead you in some direction?” WFTV reporter Kathi Belich asked attorney Jose Baez.

“Kathi, I’m not going to discuss theories of defense or anything we plan on bringing out in court. The truth is, under the rules of discovery we’re entitled to it,” Baez said.

Baez has received more evidence from prosecutors recently, including more cell phone records and investigator interviews. They will be released publicly as soon as Wednesday

Their little FACADE is getting increasingly more ANNOYING , as time go’s by, and their not doing themselves any favors by putting up their sideshow!

We are here for Caylee, your right.

Glad to see you back Caylee-Angel. Were you away?

And as far as being “polite” depending on whether someone is a man or woman? Both are probably reading even if not posting so I don’t know what difference that makes. We’re either polite to everyone or not at all. There’s no way to distinguish.

I am getting very cynical now.
So many players are on the publicity bandwagon now with quite some money at stake.
Local LE has those ping charts too. They surely would have looked for Caylee’s remains already if it was that easy, yet they are not. Paddy saying, they will find Caylee in one hour is BS too IMO.
I am just getting suspicious of everybody now including Paddy and TES.

the pings can hit her going into an area, but she has large chunks of time that she’s “off the grid” and could have roamed around in these areas. There are 3 or 4 different areas of interest that are several miles in width and length.

by then my hands will be shaking with the CDT’s - computer delerium tremens…

and we are all so antsy - i know we want them to find her quick. I just hope they are slow and steady nothing is overlook and any possible evidence is preserved.

Can’t believe it’s already november though!

Let’s not forget who this is really about in her mind. The Martyr Grandmom (double martyr, by association with The Martyr Mom who has bravely given up her freedom to protect the life of her child. Uh, wait, doesn’t make sense. Oh never mind, if C thinks it, it’s gotta be true!)

And let’s face it - even if it’s neither, C is not about to miss a face to parade her mug all over the news with all the cameras coming.

G is just a frog.

Be back after NG.

I’d handcuff her ass to the chair if I were them so she doesn’t move all day.
