I don’t see how they can still believe anything she has said. Especially if they get a time/date of death from the remains soon. Because didn’t Casey claim to have been contacted by the “kidnappers” a few times after they “took” her? Like Caylee was still alive. Actually with all the lies she has already been caught in, I don’t see how they are believing her now. ---

I figure that now they’ll say that someone else is framing Casey. There insulation from what this means we’ll need to go pretty deep, otherwise admission to losing both your daughter and grandchild might be too much to bear. ---

Yeah, there has never been a high profile murder case where the DNA evidence was somehow dismissed.:rolleyes: ---

It will be interesting to see where Cindy’s loyalties lie now. Back in June she was threatening to turn Casey in for car theft if she didn’t tell her where Caylee was. Now, her darling grandbaby is dead, she most likely raised a monster who killed her because said grandbaby was interfering with Mummy’s party schedule and all her hopes/delusions Caylee would be found alive just blew up in her face. Will she be Mama Bear and protect Casey, or will she be Grandmama Bear and turn on Casey? ---

> [@CAT\_1](#): > > I also heard, On Nancy Grace, so I take this with a grain of salt, that a few hours after Casey heard about the remains of a child being found she ordered a deck of cards and some snacks. If true, that is a little odd. > But everything about her is odd. My initial reaction is that she knows the gig is up. It’s been said on several that she was informed by a pastor at the jail, but then declined a visit from her family pastor to meet with her defense attorney instead. ---

I did a google search as a matter of curiosity to see what (that didn’t specifically mention Casey Anthony) came up when you googled “chloroform recipes”. I won’t link as you can google it for yourself, but there’s no shortage of places and the recipe is almost always for bleach, acetone (available at hardware stores and also in nail polish remover, but most sites say don’t use the latter) and ice. Some have warnings such as this one (which is unedited from the web site): > [@](#): > > Making Chloroform > > Here is a simple guide to make the chemical compound chloroform. Be sure to read the warning. > > **WARNING: This isn’t one of those bullshit ‘something might go wrong’ warnings. This is not safe chloroform. Medical grade chloroform is mixed with a percentage of ether to stop it decomposing to the chemical Phosgene, A WWI chemical gas. While taking in chloroform, it decomposes in your body to phosgene. The phosgene reaches the liver, and creates cell mutation and DNA changes which are pretty much guaranteed to cause cancer eventually. In addition to the phosgene mentioned, halocarbons tend to be bitchin’ alkylating agents. There is an obscene amount of shit in your body which can be fucked up by alkylation, and some of the more reactive thereof happen to be the base pairs in your DNA. > YOU WILL GET CANCER**. Bolding original to the warning. They then nevertheless give the formula. I have no trouble imagining Casey playing Dr. McFrankengyver and creating a lethal Clorox cocktail that killed the child, and then panicking.
