WED, November 5, 2008 – Pre-trial Hearing: Atty. Baez’s motioned the court for a continuance (Waiver of Right to a Speedy Trial) on the Grand Theft Charge. Judge Strickland GRANTED it for now. The Prosecution argued that the Grand Theft case was a “relatively simple case” and should not be held in abeyance until after the criminal trial. Atty. Baez’s argument of “judicial economy” would be taken under advisement and decide next month. No ruling, at this time, on delaying the check fraud charges until after the 1st degree murder charge.
“We all believe she’s alive,” Atty. José Baez said during a hearing at the OC Courthouse. However, Behind the scenes, the Defense Team sent 30 pages of documents to prosecutors. In those documents, Casey Anthony’s lawyers argued that if Caylee is dead that it was “almost certainly a tragic accident.”
The documents also said Caylee Marie Anthony could’ve been poisoned by chloroform or she could have died while she was sedated. They said the cause of death could have been an unwitting overdose of a sedative. VIDEO

SAT, November 15, 2008 – At 8:15 a.m. P.I. James Hoover met with P.I. Dominic Casey at his office – D & A Investigations, Longwood, FL. At that time P.I. Casey told P.I. Hoover that he knew where Caylee Anthony was…P.I. Hoover said, “ok, let’s go get her”…P.I. Casey then said, “she’s dead!”
According to P.I. Hoover, the only information P.I. Casey would disclose was he got the information about Caylee from a tip…. he did not name the tipster. They drove to the wooded area in the 8900 block of Suburban DR, Orlando, FL in P.I. Hoover’s vehicle. P.I. Hoover video taped P.I. Casey performing the search near the pavers in the woods.

P.I. Jim Hoover video taped P.I. Dominic Casey in the yard of an abandoned house (previous residents were a Gonzales family). The mystery house address is 8718 Brackenwood DR, close to where Caylee’s remains were eventually found. P.I. Casey is there opening up trash bag, sifting, poking, slashing, seaming to searching for something.
Ginnette L. (psychic) claims she is the one who directed P.I. Dominic Casey there, but the P.I. Jim Hoover, who was actually shooting that video, said the directions she had given last night she claimed that she had given to Dominic Casey would not have gotten them to that house.
P.I. Hoover also says that P.I. Dominic Casey never mentioned anything about a psychic telling him anything. And P.I. Casey was very secretive about who he was on the phone with.
The other curious thing is that P.I. Dominic Casey, if he really thought he was going to find something there, he never called law enforcement to go to that house. And you see on the video how he went about his alleged search of that house – no gloves, digging and cutting things. He could have damaged fingerprints.
A Caylee sighting was reported at the FLORIDA MALL. A photo of a child was taken by a mall employee Halima S. according to myFOXOrlando.com. Sometime between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. this child was observed playing with other children.

He described how his client has suffered as a result of Casey’s accusation that ZFG was the person who kidnapped and possibly murdered her child. He also stated the reason for the ZFG defamation law suit, which is to clear Zenaida Gonzalez’s name.

They plan to present this information in a presser later this week. Mark NeJame, atty. for the Anthonys, is also expected to be present at the presser, as well as members of the KFN and P.I. Dominic Casey.
LP is considering $200,000 offer to continue the search for Caylee. He has been contacted by a company that is willing to fund the search effort if Padilla is willing to give them exclusive rights to film his crew performing the search. At this time LP has not made a final decision to accept the offer.

THU, November 20, 2008 – The presser was canceled. The Anthonys said they could prove Caylee was alive, and were supposed to release details on this evidence during the news conference.
Atty. Mark NeJame RESIGNS. He was not able to effectively control or influence what the Anthonys were saying and doing, therefore in a graceful and respectable manner, Atty. NeJame stated he could no longer represent them.
FRI, November 21, 2008 – Defense Witness list released: Lawrence Kobilinsky, Henry Lee and Larry E Daniel.
The Anthony family releases a picture of a little girl playing to Central FL News 13. They believe she could be Caylee. This pic was taken Sunday 11/16/08 at the Florida Mall.
“Everything we have: the evidence from the labs, the grand jury indictment, the FBI reports … they all say that Caylee is dead,” he explains. “It would be irresponsible for us to keep up false hope. The sheriff’s office will go with what the evidence indicates, and it indicates the child is dead.”
Officials at the OCSD issued a statement today that they will only follow tips leading to finding Caylee’s remains. They will no longer investigate Caylee Anthony sightings. One of the other considerations, according to Carlos Padilla, is how a continued search for Caylee would affect the jury at Casey Anthony’s trail.
“If we continue to look for a living child, when we have all the evidence to the contrary, it can be used as a way to cast doubt on the jury,” he says. “We can be accused of still following leads and tips — so, the defense can claim we must think the girl is alive. The Anthonys, apparently, are trying to keep the doubt going– in that way, they can help save their daughter.”
George & Cindy Anthony Interview. Cindy looks deflated and she is absolutely speechless! VIDEO
SAT, November 22, 2008 – At 11:05:45 a.m. Larry Garrison sends e-mail to a friend with a reply message from Cindy attached. The subject is regarding Cindy giving Casey’s hairbrush instead of Caylee’s to the authorities.

TUE, November 25, 2008 – Court Hearing: Judge Stan Strickland orders prosecutors to turn over all evidence to the defense. He also ruled that the defense can not test the hair found in Casey Anthony’s trunk because remaining portion of the sample is too small.
The ruling on the Prosecution’s request for a Gag Order to be issued against the Anthonys and Atty. Baez will be made (in writing) tomorrow after reviewing further arguments.
The FBI is investigating an email in which Cindy Anthony admits that the hairbrush she gave to LE was used by Casey and Caylee (NOT CAYLEE’S BRUSH ONLY!).
A controversial email dated 11/22/08 surfaced. It appears that the Anthonys’ former spokesperson, Larry Garrison, says he confronted Cindy by email about why she gave Casey’s hairbrush, instead of Caylee’s hairbrush, to investigators who wanted a DNA sample. Garrison said Cindy’s emailed response was: “I never lied. I just never went to my bathroom to get the hairbrush that I used only for Caylee.”
Judge Stan Strickland orders prosecutors to turn over all evidence to the defense. He also ruled that the defense can not test the hair found in Casey Anthony’s trunk because remaining portion of the sample is too small.
WED, November 26, 2008 – Judge Stan Strickland’s ruling on Prosecution’s request for a Gag Order. DENIED He wrote, “While this argument has some appeal, it does not rise to the level of being a serious and imminent threat to the administration of justice. Further, this court is confident that even with a ‘gag order’ the publicity and media attention would continue unabated.”
According to the discovery docs released today, someone performed Internet searches for “neck breaking,” “household weapons” and “chloroform” on the Anthony home computer.
On 3/17/08, someone used the Anthonys’ home computer to do Google searches for peroxide, shovels, acetone, alcohol and how to make chloroform. The search for how to make chloroform was performed between 1:43 p.m. and 1:55 p.m. VIDEO
