In the news...

Not only have I been keeping up with the weather in general but also the Casey Anthony case.
The weather appears to be getting worse as the days progress. Jacks still says he hears sirens from the police and ambulances racing up and down the highways. Also the slightest change in weather he loses his power and sits around waiting for that to come back up. To hear stories of families losing other members and all of their possessions and trials and tribulations and the courage to go on is inspiring to me.
The trial is interesting to say the least, very sad on the bigger side. I'm not sure where this diatribe is going, just something on my mind so bear with me here.
I'm seeing a young single mom who appears to claim she was molested by her father and her brother as a child. In turn being, after the accidental death of her 2 year old daughter she chose to block it out and party for I guess 31 days.
First of all I have to say the little girl is a total doll, the videos show her as a typical two year old rambunctious and rowdy. Big round brown eyes and toothy grin. How someone could purposely kill this precious child is beyond me.
The defense is stating that it was a possible drowning and Casey was overly distraught to come to the police to admit what happened because of her abuse by her father. The prosecution from what I manage to understand is saying Casey killed her daughter, stashed her in her car trunk for a while and then to bury her close to her parents home.
Right now they are questioning her father, boy was he really stern on the stand. I, of course couldn't fathom how I would react there. In some sense he appeared defensive and argumentative but I could see the defense badgering him as well. He appears to be tired of all the drama and for the odd reason the smell of gasoline and wants it settled.
Question: If George had control of the duct tape and he was aware the Casey was drowned, why would George have the need to cover the kids mouth with duct tape of an already dead child? Maybe I missed the point there.
Secondly she dated some real winners, one guy sold a picture of the mom and daughter for just a little over 4k to a tabloid.
When I first heard the story I thought: Oh another mom that had a kid super young that wanted to get out and party a little more and her daughter was holding her back. Her jailhouse video conferences showed her as a selfish brat with a bad temper, who in my first impression had control of her parents.
We will see where this one ends.
