Okay, I'll start, although I'm not an attorney.
By the time the prosecution gets to closing arguments, we'll hear the following:
The manner of death, the location of poor Caylee clearly indicate that she didn't just wander away...somebody intentionally disposed of her body where they hoped she would never be found...where if it were not for Roy K., she might never have been found....why? The only reason to leave a child in that manner - discarded like trash and utterly alone - is to hide the evidence of the crime, to avoid getting caught. Nobody knew that Caylee was truly missing for 31 days except Casey Anthony - her mother and legal guardian. The person legally and morally responsible for ensuring her safety. But Casey A did not report her own child missing for 31 days, and even then only when she was cornered into doing so by concerned family members. Only Casey A had evidence of a human decompositional event in the trunk of her car. As you heard George A testify, Casey A was the last person seen with Caylee while she was alive. The trash and laundry bags used to dispose of Caylee came from the A home. A very limited number of people had access to these items. However, only one of those people had motive to rid themselves of the burden of caring for Caylee so they could live "the bella vida" - the good life. The life Caylee will never have. There is only one thing left to give Caylee and only twelve people on this Earth who can see it done. Casey can have her bella vida. Give Caylee her justice.
The defense will counter:
There is no question a crime occurred. More than a crime, a tragedy, an unspeakable evil. There is no question Caylee deserves justice. Out of everything you have heard in this trial these are the only questions with absolute answers. There are many questions the prosecution has not answered, because they can't answer them. For example, who is ZFG? This was not someone who came into being on July 15, 2008. Cindy A. testified that she had on many occasions heard Casey discuss ZFG. The prosecution states that because they haven't located this person, it means she doesn't exist. But they can't say with absolute certainty that she doesn't exist, or that the person who identified herself to Casey as ZFG doesn't actually exist by some other name. Is it so unthinkable to them that a criminal might use an alias? They claim no one else had motive to kill Caylee, but what motive did Casey have? They say it's because she wanted to go out and party, but come on, really?? Lots of young people like to go out to clubs and they don't kill their children. Nobody, not one person who knew Casey testified that she was anything other than a loving, doting, proud mother. There is no history - none - of Casey ever mistreating her daughter. She may have been immature, maybe even lazy, quite often less than truthful, but that does not make her a killer. The laundry bag found with the body is not unique to the A home, it is sold in stores nationwide. And what of the trashbags found in the home that supposedly match the ones found at the scene. Also sold nationwide. And whose to say that the killer didn't have access to the A home? Casey herself said ZFG had a key. Could the killer have actually been the one to leave the trash bags in the A home while leaving the body only a short distance away?? Unlikely, maybe, but impossible? No way! You heard the body farm expert testify that the results are "similar" to a decompositional event. You heard him refuse to say they are "certain" that it was in fact a "human" decompositional event. You may find Casey's conduct in this case strange, abnormal, even shameful. But whether or not you like or even if you hate Casey A, the same standard of proof still applies - beyond a reasonable doubt. The burden is not on Casey to prove her innocence. It's the prosecution's job to string together the crime, the victim, the method, the motive, and the evidence to find the killer. They can't say for sure how Caylee was killed, and they can't say for sure that Casey killed her. They can say they have a strong suspicion, but that is not proof. And that is not justice, for Casey, or Caylee.
I'll refrain from saying I know what the verdict will be. I know what I hope it will be.
