What has an appearance of innocence to the newcomers, is an absolute outrage to those who participated in following the money.

absolutely!!!

I think that a few worded should be added to the front of the shirt..

PROTECT INNOCENT CHILDREN

MURDERED

ACROSS THE FRONT!

It says a bit more than that! The following blurb is cut & pasted from the site...as you can see the cheques do go to the A family, addressed to their home address and made out to "Help Find Caylee Marie Anthony". I assume people can also pay in cash and would just send the cash in the envelope to their home.

Checks payable to: Help Find Caylee Marie Anthony
The Anthony Family
4937 Hopespring Dr.
Orlando, FL 32829

What I find very odd is that it appears to me the trust, according to it's terms, was supposed to cease operating when Caylee was found. Are they lawfully able to keep selling these shirts through this trust fund?

They may not have even personally visited the website to even see that the shirts are still for sale. Personally, I have a lot of negative feelings for the A's, but under the circumstances I can see how the continued sale of these shirts would go unnoticed.

IIRC, BC was asked about the t-shirts days ago and refused to comment. Also, MB says that it was Cindy who asked her to do it.

"IMO" I feel that the Anthony's should just donate the t-shirts to the homeless to help keep them warm. Caylee is no longer missing, and if there are people out there regardless of what the reason is; wanting to buy the t-shirts then the money should go to another fund for another missing child. I am sure that the Anthony's are grieving the loss of Caylee and maybe this was an over sight, Cindy being so heavily sedated is just agreeing on MB idea to keep selling the items. Regardless, I find it in poor taste but that is JMO, the fund should of closed once Caylee was found. Not sure what the legalities would be on money being received for a child that is no longer missing. The site now states that the money would go to help another missing child, but the money is being paid to the Anthony's.

I think they ought to donate all the shirts to whatever prison Casey winds up in, so she is confronted with them everywhere she goes......

Since this is from the same place selling the t-shirts, I hope it's ok to post.

It would stand to reason that MB could not write anything on a website that belongs to the Anthonys without their complete approval, right?
She wrote this 2 weeks after Caylees remains were found, and Caylee's identity was also known at the time of the writing. I will only include the part that bothers me to no end, the insistence that Caylee IS still missing!

Caylee’s Myspace Site Requests Dec 24


"This past six months have been difficult obviously for the Anthony family, the organizations that have given countless hours and resources to helping find Caylee, and difficult for all of you, the public; the strangers who came to love an angel with hazel eyes that could put a smile on anyone's face; a voice that will continue to be embedded into all of our minds; and a child in which is among just one of thousands still missing."

Since Caylee was never truly "missing", just murdered, unreported, then lied about....I consider poor Caylee in another category than a missing child. I find it vulgar that the A's don't.

[Gma Kat]

Gaia, I totally got the same feeling when I was on the site.

[LancelotLink]

I find the whole idea of the Anthonys hawking t-shirts "highly inappropriate" and I think I can list what bothers me the most about the blog.

1. ...we still have some left and if you would like to purchase them please follow these steps:

2. Please mail your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and what you would like to purchase (shirt/bracelet) and size to George Anthony: cost $10

3. Or questions about shirts or bracelets to George:

I'm at a loss for words...

Why the need for the buyers phone number?
Maybe for future help with upcoming projects?

A little while ago on Headline News, the anchor had JVM on for a couple of minutes and they were discussing the t-shirts still being for sale. JVM said there would be more discussion of the t-shirt sales on her show tonight.

At least the continuing sale of the t-shirts have gotten national media attention now.

Here's the problem as I see it:
So far we have heard many misleading statements from the Anthony's. I don't trust what they say any longer.
The only Missing Children agencies that the Anthony's were working with are NLHF and KidFinders.Both have come under fire .The founders/directors of KDFs have criminal records....serious ones.NLHF did not have a charity status and when questioned their website quit working.
GA said he was considering becoming a spokesperson for KDFs.Even if the donations go to them GA could benefit indirectly.
Who is following the money? How do we know the A's WILL donate the money?

Could be. I wish I had some insight or understanding for their actions, since I too hold to the belief that they HAD to know what had happened to Caylee from day 31.

And if they truly believed that someone else had killed their granddaughter, why has there been no outcry for the public's help in finding the killer? The only reaching out going on here is to reach into people's wallets. I worked retail when Dale Earnhardt died and the rush to buy his metalcast cars to me was sickening. These people were like scavengers. I can't understand why George and Cindy would invite scavengers into their lives, asking for personal information...when PayPal would be so much quicker. (Sorry, I couldn't resist)

If they threw them away some would say "can you be live they
did that... see they don't love Caylee"
and if they donated them some would say "can you believe that they
just gave them to people that probably don't even know Caylee"

I mean really.... JUST WHAT can they do that would be right?
NOTHING!
It's sad.
My hope is that not one person on this board has to ever be
in their position!

How would we know any of this if it hadn't been made public by THEIR representative? They didn't throw away the shirts so we won't know what others would say.

I am right there with you. Vulgar is exactly what this display is.

Because they have alienated the public with many of their past actions they are being scrutinized. They brought that on themselves.
I don't think anyone has faulted them for finally keeping quiet.
I also think if they had thrown out the Caylee is Missing t-shirts few people would fault them. It would be understandable.
Selling the t-shirts as memorabilia at a profit is disgusting JMHO

Do they still have the info. up re. selling this stuff? If so, there are no words...And no surprises! At least they are what they are! Or, to quote CA, "It is what it is".

MOO

[tangerinemoon]

I think they call this 'MURDERBILIA" (spelling ?)

[LLH]
