Her behavior following the death is why I couldn't see this as being an accident... That would just be too big of a coincidence that fca would be that relieved and overjoyed that Caylee just so happened to accidentally die at the exact moment she did...when fca desperately wanted to go out and spend the night at a boyfriend's place, who didn't allow overnights with kids, and at the exact time her mom put her foot down in regards to babysitting and wanting fca to start acting like a mom, etc, and at the exact time her boyfriend was putting pressure on her to come over at night, etc.. And the biggest coincidence of all, she "accidentally" died shortly after fca googled foolproof suffocation. And she was found with duct tape over her face, in trash bags, thrown in a swamp...
All jmo.
I agree. This was no accident. Casey is a very selfish person who killed Caylee because she was angry at her mother for finally making an attempt to call her out on her despicable behavior by threatening to throw her out and get custody of Caylee.
Her claim to the detectives that she would have given Caylee to her mother if she didn't want her anymore was a bald-faced lie. Casey wouldn't have done that because Cindy humiliated her and Casey did not want to let her "win."
I remember Cindy telling the detectives in one of her depositions about how after Casey took off with Caylee, she would grab Caylee's bear and sleep with it because it smelled like Caylee. She said she mentioned that to Casey over the phone and it mysteriously disappeared soon after that.
Poor Cindy, she was way too deluded to realize that Casey hated her and there was something very wrong with Casey. So she sold her granddaughter (who had given her nothing but unconditional love) out to defend the person who most likely killed her.
Well either that or she was fully aware of what a mess Casey was and was covering for her out of personal embarrassment and guilt over the fact that her and Casey came to blows on the 15th of June and her stupid family was nowhere near as perfect as she tried to pretend that they were.
Richard Grund said that Casey used to come by their house and wait around for Jesse to get off work, and while doing so all she would do was go on and on about her mother, how much she disliked her, how she didn't want to be like her and she was sick of her mother trying to control her and her father.
Another red flag, IMO, is the fact that she broke up with Jesse because she "thought he loved Caylee more than her." Hardly something a wonderful mother would do, deprive her child of a loving father.
So I think there was an element of jealousy there as well. She expressed it perfectly in her first call home from the jail "all anyone cares about is Caylee," before she caught herself. I also think that diary entry was very recent and she viewed Caylee's life as something that she "had given" and that she had the right to take away to punish the people who she felt didn't appreciate her enough.
I'm also quite certain that Casey made an effort to frame Jesse for Caylee's murder. Sometime during the thirty one days, she made a bizarre visit to his house asking to use his shower. Jesse said she didn't look dirty. I think she was looking for something in the bathroom that she could plant on Suburban Dr. She may have found something and planted it, but most of the forensic evidence was gone by the time Caylee was found.
Jesse also said she called him out of the blue around the same time and asked him to go clear across town to put gas in her car at Amscot. He said he refused because it was too far. Richard Grund was concerned that she was trying to get his fingerprints on her car. I agree with him.
