Well in the case of the mother, from Orlando Florida, charged with first degree murder of her own 2 year old daughter and she is facing the death penalty if she is found guilty, there are so many facts out that would prove that she herself done that to her precious daughter. I mean what mother would not report her child missing for 31 days before reporting it, oh and in this case she wasn’t even the one that reported it, her own mother did.
To make matters worse we could hear Casey during the 911 call begging her mother for more time before reporting it. I mean when was she planning on searching for her baby, Caylee Anthony? Casey apparently wasn’t worried about her daughter. With plenty of evidence to back the accusation that she wasn’t includes testimony from some of her friends, the video tapes that caught her in the Target shopping, even buying personal lingerie for herself. It sure looks to me like she was planning a romantic evening with someone instead of out looking for her missing daughter.
I think it should be illegal for an attorney to destroy other people’s lives when they know their client is probably guilty. My next question is why are they allowed to do this? Why are they allowed to stretch this case out so long? This case should have gone to trial by now. It has been over two years now that Caylee was last seen alive. Why are they allowed to drag this out?
Yesterday the wannabe dream team, which by the way is constantly getting smaller, deposed the man that found little Caylee’s body just down the street from the family’s home where she lived. Roy Kronk discovered the remains of this child thrown away in a garbage bag like she was yesterday’s trash. Now this man is obviously being questioned because he found the body. What is wrong with this picture?
The defense claims that area had been searched already so someone else obviously placed the body there after Casey went to jail so that would make her innocent. Where are they coming off with this theory anyway? I mean, personally I think Kronk stumbled upon the remains accidentally but how could the timing of his finding the remains prove Casey innocent?
Anyone else could have placed her little body there for Casey, if she didn’t. Who knows, it could have been George or Lee or even Cindy for that matter. Everyone can see the way Lee looks at his sister. He looks like she has him under her spell so she could get him to do anything in the world she tells him to do. (Of course that is my own opinion) So I ask again… even if the defense could prove someone else placed Caylee’s remains there after Casey went to jail that would in no way prove she didn’t do something to that baby and just get her family to help her cover up her mess like they always have done before. As George Anthony told her when she was first arrested that she was the boss. Her response was not anymore, at least not in there. To me that would state that at home Casey was the boss, they all did what she told them to do. So why would this be any different?
This is the reason I think the whole family is covering up for their little princess. I am not saying they did anything to Caylee, but I do think they all are guilty of covering it up to save Casey’s neck. And who knows, maybe it was Casey herself trying to seduce her father and brother to get them to do things for her. Maybe she used sex as a way to get them under her spell. I seriously doubt that George is guilty of any of the accusations Casey has made against him. I think it would be opposite and she has managed to change the story around to make her look like the victim. Bottom line is I don’t see how anyone could believe anything she has to say.
Now Roy Kronk did something no one else could do. He found this baby when search teams or the police could not do it and now he is being put through the ringer for doing his duty. The man could have just ignored what he saw and turned away and never mention it to anyone. But no, he did the right thing and called 911 and even now he says he would do it all over again if he had to.
His past shouldn’t have anything to do with him finding Caylee. OK although I do not condone anyone that abuses their spouse, what does his background prove that involves this case? It certainly doesn’t make him guilty of what the wannabe dream team is trying to make Roy Kronk look guilty of.
During this deposition he maintained his story about him relieving himself when he spotted that plastic garbage bag that contained what was left of Caylee’s remains. Kronk’s attorney, David Evans made the statement, “Of anybody involved in this mess, he’s going to be the one guy who’s going to come out with his reputation intact and his dignity intact.†I think he will too.
“It’s been very difficult for me,†said Kronk. “That’s all I’ll say. There’s been some horrible things said about me. Said I was a child predator, child molester, all this other stuff and some people believe it.â€Â These accusations came from his ex-wives when they claimed he was abusive, threatened to kill them and even restrained them with duct tape and they claimed he shouldn’t be around young girls. OK but what does that have to do with finding Caylee’s remains? I mean no disrespect to Caylee, but at that point there was nothing he could have done to harm her even if he was guilty of any of that in his past.
Evans admitted that sure Kronk has some problems with his ex-wives and family members. But he went on saying, “There’s no secret about that. I think probably some of these people are looking for 15 minutes of fame or doing it out of malice with intent to be harmful to Royâ€.
Cheney Mason stated, “Anything we’re trying to do here would be focusing on establishing reasonable doubt on various aspects of the case.†He may as well be saying they will destroy anyone’s lives that they have to, to get Casey off the hook. (That too is my own opinion)
Now everyone has to wait on Judge Perry’s decision on whether or not they can even use Kronk’s past against him. Of course the defense will think they have a major win here if they are allowed to use this against the man. I think if they do that will only make their defense look even more of a laughable defense than they already have made it to be when laughable is the last thing it should be.
Caylee Anthony’s life was taken and that is no laughable matter. They are making the death of this child more like a publicity stunt to make them famous. That is so unfair to Caylee. Who ever heard of Jose Baez before this case?
Most of this is in my own opinion but it does give reason for some thought on the case. I pray that the one that took the life of this baby will pay for it to the full extent of the law and then some. I still think they should have special wallpaper made for Casey’s jail cell, with nothing but pictures of Caylee on it with a caption on them asking what she did to deserve death. The answer to that is nothing, how can any child do anything that they would deserve to die over. Casey should be forced to see Caylee’s picture asking that constantly just to torture her. I wonder if she even has a picture of Caylee with her in jail right now anyway. Probably not, she probably would rather pictures of her pole dancing while she was supposedly out searching for her daughter.
Poor Caylee, it must break her heart to look down at how her family uses her for sympathy to free the one that took her innocent life. God bless her little soul. My prayers are still with you Caylee. May justice be finally served when this all goes to trial!

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackI think they are all in this up to their Cha Cha’s. Its an oddity when we hear Caylee was missing for 31 days, the same amount of time Cindy gave Casey to…do what? None of us know what happened behind closed doors or in phone conversations during those 31 days, we have heard plenty of stories, but we do not know anything real, except Caylee died and there was this massive cover-up and hooligans going on started by ____________Fill in the blank. We dont really even know who was using what cell phone during those times, not all the times. We assume Casey was using Caseys phone, but do we really know for sure? No, we dont, except for the calls to her friends where she actually spoke to them. We dont even know who drove that car and when during the 31 days.
I feel very sorry for the other victims that were outwardly involved in this, meaning Kronk for one. We heard he was poking around in the ants yard, So? He’s a meter reader, He went where he went and did what he did and he found Caylee. I cant even imagine how he felt when he saw what he did. To speculate he did this is utter nonsense. To speculate anyone else did this is utter nonsense.
In no way do I believe that Roy Kronks past should be able to be used against him. You are right Jan about this team of lawyers destroying others lives to save Caseys neck! I realize they have to give her the best defense possible, but this is just rediculous!
Lee Anthony made a statement during Caylees memorial that he would always keep his promise and addressed it to CMA. Is it the promise that he would never expose her( Casey) for murdering her daughter and he went after the fact and placed little Caylee where she eventually was found by Roy Kronk. Roy Kronk is an honorable citizen and did the right thing. If these lawyers are allowed to continue in this kind of fashion citizens will look the other way in order not to have to have their lives torn apart from a Team like BOZO; that should not be practicing law in the first place!!! jmo
I am not deleting your comments because you continue to trash me. It is because you have been banned in here and it is as simple as that. Grow up and accept that you are NOT wanted in here

Even after OJ SIMPSON killed his poor wife, he got custody of his kids. Prior domestic abuses on record? Check. Dead wife, dead friend, check. Give the man his children! Forget about his checkered past! (Tongue firmly in cheek)
How unfair that Kronk is getting the third degree. I DID read/hear that he was dating or knew someone in jail who had heard rumors (I know, take it with many grains of salt) about where the little fallen angel might be, but even if that was true, he still was the one who found that baby! (In the very same area Casey’s childhood friend told Police they had buried departed pets to look.) I’ll bet that all along Lee knew where she was! Justice (at 1204 today) said Lee was keeping his “promise” to Casey and I’ll bet that’s what it is.
Shameful, all of them.
I also believe that OJ killed his wife, but he was found innocent by a jury. How does Kronk compare to OJ Simpson? Kronk has never been accused of killing anyone has he?
I am posting from a WyFY and having a few problems, so if this posts twice I am sorry.
LfJ, It is sad to see Kronk raked over the coals, but it happens so often. In the Phil Spector case Lana Clarkson, the lady he was accused of killing was made out to be an unhappy young lady that was just asking to be murdered. It was like he did her a favor because her career wasn’t taking off the way she had hoped.
It takes a different kind of person to be a defense attorney, I guess. I need to read the book “How Do You Defend Those People?”. Maybe it just turns into a job and you don’t think about the victim, just your client.
As stated about “Who ever heard of Jose Baez before this case?”
Now that OJ Simpson has been mentioned I had never heard of Robert Kardashian before the OJ trial and I wonder if his daughters would have ever even been heard of if not for that trial.
The names Greta Van Susteren, Marcia Clark, the late Johnny Cockran, Mark Fuhrman just to name a few would not be known to me if not for the OJ trial.

Well now that might be the only good reason I have ever heard for the trial to not have taken place, LOL.
So in other words, is Cheney saying everybody is going to be thrown under that fast moving bus and he intends to expose some aspects of peoples lives that arent exactly 1000% perfect and have absolutely nothing to do with the issue at hand? This shows they do have a very weak case at defending her. All it is going to do is waste time and cause more hurt and turmoil in these innocent peoples lives.
What would they have done if a carful of Nuns found Caylee? Try to ruin their perfect life? Doesnt Cheney know one thing about throwing stones in galss houses. My Goodness!
I agree that Kronk’s problems in the past are the same as anyone who has gone through bad divorces. Ex spouses will say anything to hurt the other. How Baez can tie this into the murder of Caylee is beyond me.
IMO it will be Cindy and George that will be blamed for Caylee’s death.I think Casey will say she has been covering for her parents all this time. But we all know Casey only cares about Casey and if she was covering for someone she would have spilled it already.
Hoping justice for Caylee will include everyone who covered this terrible crime and pointed fingers at innocent people.
Sorry,, going for some clarification here. When I said that nobody knew who was driving the car or using the cell phones, I meant only with-in the family unit. I am sorry, but I just dont trust them, never have, never will. They got nobody to blame for this but their own selves. JMO.
I hope that a lot of those Lemmines in Motion come into play before all this gets off the ground. There is absolutely no reason to overcloud the situation with a lot of witnesses’ private lives and what they did or were accused of prior. I see Dante’s Inferno raging in all this for a lot of innocent people who unfortunately were around this family.
Very good article, Jan! It’s really quite disgusting to see all these people’s lives ruined just because of their involvement with the case. I think that Casey is guilty-and while she is entitled to a fair trial, none of this mud slinging is going to save her. I only hope there is complete and total justice for that sweet baby girl.
Jan, wonderful article as usual. I totally agree with your opinions and pray for justice for baby Caylee. Also, I would like to see the guilty person or persons come to trial and conviction. I feel it is a sad shame that Mr. Kronk has to go through the trashing sessions for doing the right thing. This type thing causes folks to turn the other way instead of trying to help, they know they will be put on trial themselve. He maintains that he would do it all again, that should say something in his defense. As far as his ex’s, who knows the real truth anyway? They can say whatever they wish and it still does not alter the fact that he was the one who found Caylees remains and yes, George, they were only remains. Jan, you keep up the good work as you have always done, we are proud of you for the stand you have taken and for those who would continue to trash you, they have the problem, we don’t and they are not worth the worry so forget it. God bless you for staying with this.
Seeing the way Kronk has been treated and everything he has ever done being brought out I am not sure I would volunteer to go out searching if a child went missing in my town.
I would assist with paperwork, food and water but I don’t want everyone to know everthing I have ever said or done in my life.
I am not a criminal, just an average citizen but I do have and exhusband who could say that I have used a few bad words and thrown a few screaming fits which would be the truth.

I think you are funny idiot. You are the one making a fool out of yourself here.
Sadly we’re becoming a society who doesn’t want to get involved. This derailing of witness’ is a first class example why! No one wants to be raped publicly for trying to do the right thing.
