They have never met this woman, have never met the fake ZG, have only information from Casey as to what the woman looks like, and have asserted that this woman does not fit the description they have been given. This is a shameless attempt to get money or notoriety and I will not pretend it is anything otherwise.
I'm all for holding people accountable for what they say. However, all I have ever heard the Anthony's (ALL of them!) say is this is not the woman that was described to them. It's ridiculous to pretend that they were the ones who forced this woman into the public eye. She crawled out into that limelight. She was investigated just like so many other people AND WAS CLEARED by LE and they have at every turn made that statement. She will never achieve anything more than that even through the lawsuit except money. The Anthony's have NEVER insinuated that this woman was in any way involved. That will be all she will get in a deposition, as well.
Im not a huge fan of the money sucking Anthony family, but I firmly believe they have no reason to have to be compelled to answer this frivolous lawsuit with anything more than what they have already given, which was from the very first to say "We do not know who this woman is."
Bold by me: Obviously the judge does not agree with you as to this being a frivolous lawsuit or it would have been tossed out of the docket. I agree the A's could simply say "we do not know who this woman is" and be done with it.
debs, you know I'm usually there applauding your impressive and compelling posts but on this one I have to disagree. Either way, whether we personally feel the case is a good thing or a greedy thing, the fact remains that G & C must comply with the courts, whether they want to or not. It's out of their control.
In another thead, elementary referred to their "extra special grief." (Post is here. And I'm so disappointed that thread didn't reopen!) That's how I see it too. They seem to expect all sorts of passes due to their "extra special grief." And apparently think that's an excuse that won't wear thin. It's been a couple of weeks since the memorial and a couple of months since Caylee was id'd. I doubt the court would accept that excuse without some pretty heavy endorsement from a doctor or at least a psychologist.
Even with a doc there to testify as to their mental state, it may not be readily accepted. I also think that going to the Haleigh search would negate what may have been a given as far as appearance of inability. And CA? Well, what can I say about her that won't aggravate someone?
Morgan, imo, absolutely wants to nail them down to specific answers and not just to clear his client's name or to get big $$$. I think he is also interested in helping get justice in the criminal case. Does anyone know if they've talked with LE again yet?
Ok, I tried to behave but I have to throw this out there too: My thoughts on the requested immunity are that they're not so much concerned about probation or fines that would likely be the worst sentence they'd face. No, if they're convicted of anything related to this case, they won't be able to make money from it. I think Morgan wants to help prevent that too.
Your last paragraph says it all.
