Well it seems that Judge Stan Strickland has scored more points with the American people out there following the murder case against Casey Anthony from Orlando Florida. Casey is accused of murdering her 2 year old daughter, little Caylee Marie Anthony and is being held in the Orlando County Jail without bond with the charges of first degree murder and the state will be asking for the death penalty.
Judge Strickland ruled yesterday that Casey’s check forgery trial will be held before her murder trial. Her attorney’s have been fighting trying to get that postponed until after the murder trial in fear that if she is convicted it could hurt her in the murder trial. During this trial, if convicted on the check forgery she could be found guilty on as many of 13 counts which would make her a convicted felon. That wouldn’t look so good on her when she appears in court for murder.
The prosecution has a video tape showing Anthony at a Target store as she went on a shopping spree after her daughter went missing. She was seen buying things such as sexy lingerie, beer, big white sunglasses, and the blue hoodie she happened to be wearing the first time she was arrested. She was seen writing out a check using her friend Amy Huizenga’s check. I think this is going to kind of hard for them to say she is innocent with a video that clearly proves she is guilty.
Also there is more news on the duct tape that was found on little Caylee’s skull covering her nose and mouth. Apparently the tape is a rare make and it could cause a major setback for the defense team. The defense has claimed that the Henkel brand tape was the best selling brand in the country but the brand attached to Caylee’s skull is a special make.
WKMG’s Tony Pipitone says, “This specific industrial, fire-resistant tape is a tiny fraction of all the tape sold by Henkel. We tried to buy some today. We couldn’t find any.”
When asked what does this mean, he said, “It is extremely rare and a crucial find.”
Prosecutors do plan to explain just how rare the tape is in court and they will argue that the tape is a link between the body and Anthony. They also claim the tape is similar to that tape that was found on the gas can in The Anthony’s shed.
Little by little it seems like the defense’s case is started to fall apart. Piece by piece getting knocked down. As for the shopping spree, I’d like to hear an explanation why on earth would she be buying things like beer and sexy lingerie, not to mention anything else, when she was supposedly out doing her own investigation looking for Caylee. I guess she saw the investigation as an 8 hour a day job and she had clocked out that day so she was no longer working on the case so she went shopping. She must have been exhausted after looking for her daughter that she was just ready for a nice relaxing evening with her boyfriend. Who knows what was going through that woman’s head.
People always say you don’t know what you would do if you were in her shoes. Well this might be true but I don’t care what anyone says when it comes to defending someone that would prefer to party than look for her own child, I know I wouldn’t be partying. I would be looking til I dropped. I would have not been in a Target Store (or any store for that matter) buying beer and lingerie using someone else’s money to pay for it at that. For all you Casey Anthony defenders, I’d like to know an explanation for these actions if she is supposed to be so damn innocent.
While Casey was shopping, was Caylee lying in the woods with duct tape over her mouth inside a laundry bag that was put inside a garbage bag and thrown away like she was nothing but trash? The thought of that sickens me. As a mother and grandmother I can’t understand how anyone can do that to a precious child., a gift from God that should be cherished not dumped.
I am still looking for justice for Caylee Marie Anthony. I pray that one day she will get it so she may rest in peace. We haven’t forgotten you Caylee. We all still love you!

Caylee Marie♥♥
Great article, Jan! Thank you!
One of the reasons the defense gave for not having the fraud trial first was that Bozo and Lyons were SO busy preparing for the murder trial. I can see Lyons - the “expert death penalty” lawyer - being involved in arguing that the fraud trial not happen first - because it could affect the penalty phase at least of the murder trial.
But now that she’s lost that argument I don’t see why she needs to be involved in the fraud trial at all! Bozo and his other “colleagues” can handle that OR they can go hire an “expert fraud” defense attorney with the limitless funds that seem to be available to them.
Lyons was hired for a death penalty murder trial so she can keep preparing for that and let someone else handle the fraud trial.
Sorry, this is my long-winded way of saying the defense’s objections to having the fraud trial first are bogus - like most everything else the defense says.
I hope that Casey is suffering inside and scared to death thinking of the death that will be hers.
Hi, Bryan! I didn’t see your comment before posting mine! Well said!
But I wonder if she’ll even get much punishment for the check fraud. I know there are 13 felony counts but they are “first offenses.” Normally I bet someone would get a slap on the wrist like a few years probation. And she might! But even if she is sentenced to jail time I bet she serves it just where she is “for her own protection” prior to the murder trial.
So I guess the best outcome of having the fraud trial soon is to get this overwith for Amy H. and to help affect the sentencing WHEN she’s convicted of murdering Caylee.
You’re right, Jan. The worst mother I know would have behaved better than Casey did. I’m SO glad that Strickland came across this time and didn’t wimp out.
Whoooo Raaaah…You go Strickland! WolfOne loves Strickland
Really lovin’ this new info about the rarity of the duct tape! Forensics RULES!! (Ha ha ha, Jose…”junk science”, my behind!)
Justice for Caylee is coming, slowly but SURELY!
Jan, great article!!! Treece
Dear jan: Great article. General applause for Strickland. I think he knows that Casey is guilty as sin, but of course being a judge he has to follow protocol.I remember clearly when he said”Ms anthony and the truth are strangers!” I am happy that he has allowed the fraud trial to go ahead soon and also happy that he managed to get a dig in at the defense by saying that this is a simple matter which will take 1 or 2 days excluding jury selection. The prosecution has also given the defense an out indicating that they are willing to waive a jury trial if the defense wants it. Also a big hurrah for Strickland for allowing the release of the Padilla team tapes. Unbelievable to listen to and very damaging to Princess Casey whose only goal during the supposed search for Caylee was primping for the cameras and flirting with Rob.
As far as the duct tape one of our early bloggers had come up with the same conclusion on the duct tape evidence after much research and forwarded his findings to the prosecution.
Hi, Saluki! I agree! And I do remember one of our early bloggers doing a LOT of research on the duct tape and coming up with the same findings!
After listening to just part of the Padilla team’s interviews, I can see why bozo wanted to keep them out! They SINK the maggot! Hoorah!
hi friends!!! bit by bit our baby caylee is getting her justice…please everyone know that the world is watching,that caylee is first in our minds and we love her and will never forget…
thanks jan for your love for caylee,and putting her picture with your article…
hi my friend m2c,iv missed you and hope your well…
Justice for caylee..prayers for Haleigh..xxx.
What I would like to know, is why didnt the police bring in a sketch artist so Crazey could describe what this “nanny” looked like? I know she would have made something up, but the fact that she wasn’t given a chance to do that shows that no one really believed there was a nanny. She is definitely going down. I just don’t know why they are prolonging her fate. She must be costing taxpayers many thousands.
People that know animals should be called as witnesses, animals will not remain where there is a smell, they take their pieces and leave the site where it smells, that is why little innocent baby was so scattered in the woods. She threw her away for the same reasons her little body was scattered, even an animal can not tolerate that smell. I hope that scent of her dead daughter remains in her nostrils up to the day they place a needle in her arm. I wish it had been a squirrel…
So glad to hear about the duct tape, I thought Casey looked like she knew her fate, in the last photos of her in court…she looks very very worried. HEEHEE
We all know she did it but why are her parents still in denial? I know it must hurt them but they have to know the truth. Right? This is a person that should never see the light of day again. The death penalty for sure!!!!
