Her writing a book explains her involvement in this case, free promotion, national and international attention has been given to this case. The same goes for Dr. Baden and his wife Linda's book, and other experts on the case who just so happen to have books currently released. There really is no 'pro bono' , there is more what mileage can I get out of the exposure. Pro bono imlies a noble, charitable, nothing in it for me type of voluntary legal aid. Ms. Lyons book actually helps the prosecution, because much like studying her past cases, and lectures one can guess with accuracy what arguments she is likely to use and plan accordingly, so I am happy. It is as if someone dropped off her closing arguments right on the State's desk and said, sneak peek, Merry Christmas!
I have often wondered why mom and pop don't see that writing on the wall, that they are going to be drug through the mud by Andrea in the closing arguments of penalty phase? It is going to make brother Rick's e mails look like a tea party invitation by comparison. It is going to be brutal! I wont be at all surprised if she states that Caylee was the product of a rape from a close family friend. Then we'll see how their public comments change, but ...alas...that is at least a year away imo.
It is very naive if Brad is not telling them to get ready for this eventual and inevitable dissection of her upbringing. It is not going to be pretty. It is going to be brutal, indeed. One of our posters wrote my favorite line in the case "We are not on Hope Springs Drive anymore folks!"
