I feel a rant coming on..... see below
Many legal experts say the toughest part of defending Casey Anthony will be explaining her behavior after her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, disappeared when she goes on trial for life.
They are images of Casey Anthony partying just days after her two year old daughter Caylee went missing.
In surveillance videos, Casey is seen buying beer and bras with money, investigators say, she stole-- from one of her best friends.
How does Anthony explain her lack of concern, grief or remorse?
"She has a very compelling reason for her actions," her attorney Jose Baez said in an exclusive interview with WESH 2 reporter Bob Kealing.
Baez declined to be more specific.
"As much as I'd like to say it, that's as much as I can say right now," Baez said.
Watch The Story
Baez, however, did refer to a case that could provide insight into his defense.
In 2002, Cynthia Sommer lost her husband, Todd, a healthy Marine stationed in San Diego.
Sommer's attorney Allen Bloom said Todd Sommer was “originally evaluated to have died by natural causes, a sudden cardiac arrest from an arrhythmia of the heart.”
Two months after her husband died, friends told investigators Sommer bought breast implants with the insurance money, started partying and sleeping around.
Cynthia Sommer was charged with murder. Her attorney argued that Sommer's apparent lack of remorse was a condition known as "ugly coping." The phrase was coined by a Columbia University behaviorist to describe people who appear to grieve abnormally.
According to Cynthia Sommer's attorney, prosecutors were willing to overlook problems with their evidence, because they mistook her so-called ugly coping as evidence she had no remorse and was guilty of murder.
Sommer's attorney finally proved her husband's death was not motivated by her greed. After two years Cynthia Sommer walked out of prison.
How do you explain then, Casey's same exact behavior "months before" Caylee went missing. Seems Casey had enough of mommy-hood, and wanted to party like a rock star. I don't buy this "ugly coping" defense. Casey should have been coping with her ugliness long before Caylee went missing. ~And I am not referring to looks, either.
So this "ugly coping" defense, that caused Casey to buy beer and bras--was during the time that "the nanny" had Caylee, and was going to return her on her birthday--according to Casey. Correct? So why would Casey be "grieving" or coping with anything?
According to Casey, Caylee was not "missing", "lost", or even "dead", she was "with the nanny". According to Casey.
But we all now know the truth, Caylee was bagged up and tossed away like trash while Casey was boozing and whoring it up -- living la "Bella Vita" as Casey's tattoo described.
Remember, the one she got right after Caylee's murder.
Wonder if Casey's Marine, Mark Hawkins, knew of the Todd Sommer case?
Some beautiful life........
