2011.05.11 Kc sick removed from court

[Melanie]

I need my tinfoil hat! I'm feeling sorry for her and doubting her guilt again! I need a 12 step program! yup Imma sucker!

No tin hat needed Gngr - you're just kind hearted. My first though was she might be stroking out (holding all that stress in for 3 years will do that to ya).

I'm no doctor, but it sure sounds like she could have a B12 deficiency, or carpal tunnel syndrome, or as many said an anxiety attack. My attacks bring tingling in my arms, but I don't lose sense in my hands.

Interesting.

MOO

Medication Likely to Restore Competence
Section 1370 further authorizes involuntary administration of antipsychotic medication if the incompetent defendant is charged with a serious crime against person or property; and "antipsychotic medication is substantially likely to render the defendant competent to stand trial; the medication is unlikely to have side effects that interfere with the defendant's ability to understand the nature of the criminal proceedings or to assist counsel in the conduct of a defense in a reasonable manner; less intrusive treatments are unlikely to have substantially the same results; and antipsychotic medication is in the patient's best medical interest in light of his ... medical condition."

Right before she left the courtroom

LOOK - I broke a nail! :tears: :dramaqueen:

:violin:

I don't buy the sick routine. Not one bit.

 

[Gnatcatcher]

And yet, she was able to push down on the arms of the chair to stand up, pull down on her pants legs as she got up, curl her fists together as she walked, and do the trade mark move she makes when walking in front of people - pull her elbow into her waist and lift her arm, that little insecurity thing she does.

Sorry. Don't care. Wish I did, but I don't.

Lack of attention from JB?

 

[EllenRoss]

Yes I think ICA is probably seeing that her time has come. Jury selection started and imo Casey knows this is the real deal. I think this is one of many panic attacks she will have.

Then again it could be just that. Casey seeking attention.

 

[21merc7]

Her hands. She has been pressing them together as hard as she can all day, and her elbows up on the table pressing in. That could be a hand issue.

Sorry, but panic attacks are not delaying this trial, or any other acting up.

 

[tsitra01]

Thinking of Casey Anthony....feeling sorry is the last thing I would consider.

Why does JB have to be accommodated ALL the time. Picking homeless from next door is unfair. That is not random. Why does it have to be special for this trial and why aren't the prosecutors objecting.

 

[tlcya]

aw. wish I could feel some sympathy but all I feel is satisfaction knowing that maybe, just MAYBE, ICA has finally had her reality check.

Probably just so much performing for the general public and the potential jurors, but hey, a gal can hope right?

 

[mysteriew]

Yeah she may have had a real anxiety attack. But IMO since it worked once and got her out of court, most likely it will happen again most likely during difficult testimony.

Anyone want to bet on whose testimony the next one will happen on?

go listen to her first phone call home from jail, that always sorts me right out.


I think some of us are so empathic we cant help feeling terrible when anyone is hurt or sick. but that doesnt make her a nice person who is innocent. go listen to that call and see how sorry for ICA you feel at the end of it.

Hi, there you got a link to the audio/transcript.

Thanks

I agree, I so agree. I worked as a nurse on a psych ward. It was common for the sociopaths to have "seizures", swallow foreign objects, fake medical problems, etc. so they could get off the ward or avoid a court appearance, etc. To a certain extent, they must be "humored", but they must also learn that after their problems are addressed, they will still be obligated to behave appropriately, appear in court, etc.

 

[uklaw]

JB is struggling and ICA is realizing she is toast.

Respectfully snipped by me.

The problem with this view, however, is that if ICA is a sociopath, knows she has murdered her daughter, only cares about herself and knows she is going down she will seek a plea deal (unless of course JB is standing in the way of it, which could be interesting on appeal depending upon the outcome of a SCOTUS case: Missouri v. Frye (No. 10-444)).

So if she really thinks she is shortly off to death row then surely she would be seeking to take a plea and save her skin? I imagine the State is still amenable to a plea deal.

IIRC, most theories up until now were that she thought she would win the case or that she wasn't giving it much thought.

Which is exactly why she is flipping out now.Every time she actually hears the indictment read she gets upset because she is being forced to face the facts. She can't make up a different scenario in her head while she is actually sitting there listening.As soon they move on to the potential jurors she recovers .She can put what happened out of head again.
She is starting to see she may not win and is getting scared. JMO

 

[crucibelle]

WFTV is reporting that Casey was having "pain" in her hands and wrist. Honestly, I'm not surprised. She may pretend to be innocent, but her body is showing otherwise. Her hands were the murder weapon. It's psychological, IMO.. guilt coming out in the form of pain, and pain in none other than the hands used to kill Caylee. Like Dr. Glass says, "the body doesn't lie". JMO.

 

[logicalgirl]

Jean C. was just on PrimeNews, HLN, describing the incident. She said Casey's hands 'would not move.' And the guards were surrounding her, trying to help and they escorted her out of the room.

I know that anxiety attacks make your hands go numb and they feel paralyzed.

SHE IS BACK IN THE COURT!

But I was sure I saw her flexing them along with Dorothy Simms.:waitasec:
Maybe they were just going numb.

 

[logicalgirl]

Lack of attention from JB?

JB was NOT impressed - at all.

 

[Intermezzo]

I am watching the clip..the guards are surrounding her but I did notice she was opening and closing her hands at least 2 times..

IMO it's anxiety..and she has a tingling feeling running up and down her arm probably

Something seems to be up with her hands, lower arm..she still used her hands to get up from the chair.

Plenty of people around the courtroom to take care of her...
