Hi Ms St. John,

I saw you on the Nancy Grace show and you are a wonderful person.
I'm not sure if you were in Florida searching for Caylee Anthony this past
weekend, however will you be going back to Florida to search?  I really
hope so, I was very disappointed that this little girl wasn't found.  Thank you
for all you do.

Hi, this seems to be going down the same path as the McCann case...which the bones turned out to be from a cat.

Thanks for this, I do not think LP would lie...ever.

POSTED: 8:14 am EST November 13, 2008

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Divers searching for the remains of Caylee Anthony on Thursday said they discovered a garbage bag containing bones and toys in a river at an Orlando park, but Orange County authorities said the findings were not credible, causing them to request the bounty hunter who led the search to take a polygraph test. A team from Blackwater Divers led by celebrity bounty hunter Leonard Padilla conducted the search in the Little Econ River at Blanchard Park in Orlando. But Orange County sheriff's officials said the findings were not bones and the discovery was not connected to the case.

"Early on the afternoon of Nov. 13, 2008, divers associated with an independent search for Caylee Anthony reported the recovery of what they believed were bone fragments and other items related to the missing toddler from the Little Econ River on Jay Blanchard Park in east Orange County. Investigators assigned to the investigation into the disappearance of Caylee responded to the park and determined that the recovered items are not associated with the case. "The sheriff's office remains focused on the primary mission at hand, which is to locate Caylee Anthony and continues to follow up on all viable leads and tips that are deemed to be creditable in their ongoing investigation," the statement said.

Sheriff's officials said they have asked Padilla to take a polygraph test, to which the bounty hunter agreed. The FBI will conduct a polygraph test with Padilla at a later date, Orange County sheriff's Capt. Angelo Nieves said. "There's a couple of small toys in the bag. One of them is a clover-type shaped item -- green -- and we know that Casey was big on clover-shaped items. So I told them to shut it down and get the sheriff's office out here," Padilla said. FBI agents inspected the items, Local 6 News reported.

"We came out here to find Caylee, but you don't want to find her," Padilla said while crying. "But that's the truth of the matter. We think we have."

Padilla said he has believed for a while that Caylee's mother, Casey Anthony, left the girl's body at Blanchard Park. "When the detectives talked to her, while she was trying to convince them (baby sitter) Zenaida (Gonzalez) took (Caylee) away at the Sawgrass Apartments, she also mentioned that she had also come out here to see -- that afternoon at 5 or 6 -- if possibly Zenaida was out here at the park because Zenaida used to bring the girl to the swings," Padilla said. "When we got into town and bailed her out, the day after she was out, she told me that Zenaida had taken (Caylee) away from her right here in front of the swings at Jay Blanchard Park."

Padilla said Casey Anthony mentioned the name Zenaida together with the park about eight times. Caylee's grandmother, Cindy Anthony, said she was ignoring Padilla's efforts. She said if, and until, law enforcement officials comment on any finding, she was concentrating on finding Caylee alive. Cindy Anthony said she received a tip earlier on Thursday of another possible Caylee sighting. She said a caller reported a sighting at a McDonald's in Coral Springs. The search of the river was the second in four days. A two-man dive team organized by Padilla searched the same river on Monday but did not find anything. Padilla, who held a prayer vigil for Caylee at the park on Tuesday, had said that he would be leaving Orlando after the service.

"Nobody else is doing it. Everybody left town," said Padilla when asked why he decided to lead another search. "We're bringing up the remains. We feel confident that the remains are there."

"The water smells, there's alligators, there's snakes, there's zero visibility," a diver said. Caylee, 3, was last seen in mid-June but was not reported missing until mid-July. Casey Anthony, 22, remains jailed on first-degree murder charges in her daughter's disappearance.

Watch Local 6 News for more on this development.

Meanwhile, the Anthony family fired its spokesman on Wednesday, accusing him of accepting payments for booking Caylee Anthony's grandparents on TV shows. Mark NeJame, the attorney representing George and Cindy Anthony, provided an invoice to Local 6 News, which showed Larry Garrison's purported signature on a bill to NBC for $6,500. NeJame said his clients did not know that Garrison was being compensated and the Anthonys were not paid any of the money. "He was basically being a pimp," NeJame said. Garrison released a statement, saying he was not fired but resigned his position.

"Due to the erratic behavior over the last several months exhibited by the Anthony family, Larry Garrison is resigning as their spokesperson. It is my opinion that others have manipulated them into situations, that would not dignify the family. I can no longer be part of that behavior. I wish them all the peace and resolution they so deserve. The truth always comes out in the end, and in this case 'The truth is better than the spin,'" the statement said.

A possible Caylee sighting inside a Gainesville grocery store turned out to be false, according to police. George and Cindy Anthony went to Gainesville after the sighting at a Winn Dixie over the weekend, but police said they have confirmed the identity of the girl, who is not Caylee. A national search continues for Caylee.

Celebrity bounty hunter Leonard Padilla on Tuesday held a prayer vigil for Caylee, a day after he angered the missing girl's grandparents by calling it a memorial service. Padilla, who once bailed out Casey Anthony from jail, said he made a poor choice of words in describing the service, which was held at Blanchard Park to honor Caylee. Richard Grund led the prayer vigil, quoting scripture and talking about Caylee. Grund, the father of Casey Anthony's ex-finance Jesse Grund, at one point mistakenly thought he was Caylee's grandfather.

"Caylee was a gift -- is a gift -- and she is loved, and that's why you're here," Grund said. About 100 people participated in the 9 a.m. prayer vigil, including Equusearch volunteers and protesters who once gathered outside Caylee's grandparents' home. Padilla said he organized the service to give the community closure. "Finality for some of the people who have been out here 30 or 40 searches. I've made two trips out here," Padilla said. "You have to believe in something, and I want to believe that (Caylee's) final resting place where she met God was in this place rather than a garbage dump." Padilla said he's convinced that Casey Anthony dumped Caylee's body in the Little Econ River at Blanchard Park. Some people have questioned Padilla's motives, calling his involvement a publicity stunt.

George and Cindy Anthony went to Blanchard Park Monday, where Padilla's divers were searching the Little Econ River for Caylee, and lashed out at him, not for the search but because he said he would conduct a memorial service for Caylee. "No one here is giving a flipping, God's anything about her, except us two right here," said Cindy Anthony while pointing to her husband, George Anthony. "I'm not on TV every night on Nancy Grace with this stuff." "Do you think it's all about publicity for him?" Local 6 News reporter Mike DeForest asked Cindy Anthony.

"What do you think?" she replied. "I have not a problem with him being out here. I have a problem with him having a memorial service for Caylee (on Tuesday)," Cindy Anthony said. "You'd have a problem with it, too." "Why do you feel it's your place to host (a memorial service)?" DeForest asked Padilla. "Nobody else is doing it," he said. "You want to do it?" Padilla said despite the Anthonys' protest, the service will be held at the park. Padilla said he believes Caylee is dead and that her body is likely somewhere in the river. "I haven't got a clue what she's thinking or why she even bothered to come out here," Padilla said of Cindy Anthony. "She knows exactly who I am, and what I'm about." Padilla said he will not lead any more searches for Caylee and only expects to be in Orlando for a few more days.

Padilla said he received a tip from a friend of Casey Anthony, leading to the dive search. Padilla said the friend showed him a picture of a cross that she had taken at Blanchard Park and it matched some arts and crafts that were in Anthony's room. "She could have easily gone to the park, taken the body out, ruptured the bag when she pulled the body out of the trunk -- which left fluids in the trunk -- gotten it all over herself, taken it to the edge of the water and dumped it in there," Padilla said. Padilla said that theory would explain a stain on one of Anthony's shirts that Cindy Anthony cleaned before it was turned over to investigators.

Meanwhile, a hearing on a sweeping gag order in the case against Casey Anthony was postponed on Monday.

It is not known when the hearing, which would restrict attorneys, witnesses, law enforcement and the Anthony family from commenting publicly about the case, will be held. The purpose of the order would be to protect potential jurors from being influenced by pretrial publicity, Local 6 News reported.

Texas-based Equusearch leader Tim Miller and his team are leaving Orlando after spending the weekend searching for Caylee, who was last seen in mid-June but was not reported missing until mid-July. Miller said last week that he expected about 4,000 volunteers, but only 1,000 to 1,500 people participated in the search, which covered 25 miles of land and wooded areas near Orlando International Airport. "The turnout wasn't as big as I anticipated. I think that people are just accepting the fact, probably, that Caylee's not going to come back," Miller said. The search thus far has cost nearly $100,000. Miller said his search team is headed to North Carolina to search for four newly missing people. Equusearch resumed its search in two parks in Orange County, an area near the Orlando International Airport and a wooded area near the home of Caylee's grandparents. Organizers said on Friday that they thought the search would attract more than 4,000 volunteers in what could have been the largest search in U.S. history, The group prepared about 350 team leaders on Friday, who were sent out in groups of two or three to different areas to determine what type of equipment and how many people would be needed in their search.

Miller and Mandy Albritton of Equusearch said the search is a huge undertaking. "This is the biggest and largest search that Texas Equusearch has ever done," Albritton said. "In the very best conditions -- if this little girl is out there -- she's skeletal remains, and it's going to be extremely easy to miss," Miller said. Padilla, who bailed out Anthony from jail months ago when she was only charged with child neglect, shared information with Miller. "We'll basically brief (Equusearch) on what we had," said Padilla, who has analyzed pings to towers from Anthony's cell phone records.

"The woman lives her life 10 minutes at a time. It never, ever affects her adversely. Child's dead? OK. What to do? Oh, I've got to go (to) Blockbuster tonight," said Padilla, making note of the fact that Anthony was captured on surveillance video shortly after Caylee's disappearance. Miller said Padilla's information coincides with where they planned to search. Cindy Anthony, who believes her granddaughter is still alive, did not assist in the search. "I talked with Cindy yesterday, and we hugged -- and we even had some tears come out -- but I don't believe that (Caylee's) alive," Miller said. Miller held a meeting Friday at 6 p.m. at the Tabu nightclub in Orlando for anyone who was interested in joining in the search, which began Saturday at 8 a.m.

Immediately upon my arrival, I was impressed by what I decided was the copious use of alcoholic beverages by many of the persons present not excluding Miller; indeed, during the meeting, I noted several of the people present leaving and returning with alcoholic beverage refills. I thought it odd that such a massive search effort was being primed with such heavy drinking.

It comes with great sadness that I will be closing the forum and refunding all money received. This comes from being exposed to groups like Kidfinders and Tim Miller from Texas EquuSearch. I am shocked and amazed by the actions of these groups.

I am not one to bad mouth someone or give speculation as to one’s motives; however, I will not stand by and have Leonard or myself attacked by people that have no business throwing rocks when they themselves live in glass houses. I will tell it like it is because I was there and I am an eyewitness to the events.

For the last few months Leonard has been on Nancy Grace promoting TES and asking people to donate to his cause as well as offer whatever assistance to the search effort of TES. The publicity of this case through the efforts of Nancy Grace and Leonard Padilla by keeping it in the headlines has generated the participation and funds for TES that Tim himself told us making this the largest search in the history of TES.

Leonard Padilla has covered all expenses of our group out of his own pocket for both trips from California to Florida including the funding for the original bail bond of $500,000.

I am repulsed by the actions of Tim Miller and the fact that he is biting the hand that feeds him; I am not sure how he thought he had received so many donations and response to his search. He is upset because people stopped Leonard or I to take some photos, I am not sure as to what he wanted; us to shun people away or act stuck up, maybe it gave the volunteers something to do as they stood around waiting to start searching while Tim set up his command center and trying to get organized during the morning after the search was already to begin, not sure what he was doing for the four days he was here before the search was to start but I said I wouldn’t get into that.

It has been reported on The Daily BS (I couldn’t have named that site any better…lol) “membership at his forum site, profiting $298,500 as of Monday” now I am not sure what kind of calculator these guys are using but, anyone can go to the forum not even being a member, click on the Statistics tab and see that there are 169 members. Now multiply 169 x $9.95 – the $ 0.59 (that Paypal charges) = $1,581.84 as well as an additional $270.00 in donations.

I have the money for Tim Millers group however where is he, Tim stated on National TV that he was coming into town to conduct the largest search in the nation to find Caylee and that he would not leave town until he found her. Now I am not going to go into the fact that he was here for three days of searching and leaves town when he receives $30,000 to go up and search in North Carolina for another family. Is Tim chasing after lost individuals or is he chasing the money but I will stop here as I said I would not sink to his level. I also realize that helping other families is important but he should not have a problem with us continuing to search.

I will not run from these lies and false statements however, maybe people are right; it is not our job to raise money for this organizations and I will not contribute another ounce of energy to bring money to Tim Miller. I am refunding every dollar to the people that have donated for this effort. I will not be associated with handing Tim one cent that I helped raise for his efforts, if anyone wants to donate to TES please donate direct to them, for I will not be involved. I apologize for not furthering the forum but will concentrate on doing what is our job: reading through the lies and solving the mystery. We are thinkers and our job is to get to the bottom of the lies involved in this crime and the focus should have always been for…. BRINGING CAYLEE HOME.

The same goes for Kidfinders. I know for a fact that this organization as attempted to stop both searches of the water at J. Blanchard Park. Why is this? Why would anyone not want the search for Caylee to continue until she is found? Are we onto something? The only thing that comes to mind is that if Caylee is found, Kidfinders does not receive any more donations. So, who is really exploiting the family?

Thanks for all the kind words on the forum and all the smart thinkers out there. We will be left to continue the search.

Please do not let the BS site try and stop the LP team...we all know what they and channel 9 have done to use...keep doing what you know is right, and in the end, the truth will come out. 

Trying to defend one self from people like this is pointless and only cause more backlash...drive on, keep quite, and take them to court if necessary...we've learned this lesson the hard way :)

Bag of rocks/toys found in the Econlockhatchee River:

I'm going to keep this short, as it's got nothing to do with finding Caylee...

I've been told the following, I'm not going make any additional comments other than the source is creditable.

1) The bag found by Blackwater was a hoax.

2) The man that planted the bag, is the same man that tipped off local authorities early hours of November 13th, 08.

3) This man knows Leonard Padilla, but is not associated with his team.

4) Investigating the source of the tip would be a good idea.

Brian

update: 11.14.08 - The bag seems to have come from a prior TES search the same area.

Thanks Teresa, will read this...and these 'dead zones' are import to our search and we have been using them in planning our searches next week.

Brian

A Local 6 News report about Casey Anthony, the woman who has been charged with murdering her missing daughter, Caylee, shows that “dead zones” on her cell phone may hurt the investigation into the case Anthony, 22, remains jailed on first-degree murder charges in the disappearance of 3-year-old Caylee, who was last seen on June 16 but was not reported missing until a month later.

 Local 6 News investigative reporter Tony Pipitone analyzed hundreds of text messages and phone calls placed and received by Anthony in the two weeks after Caylee disappeared and used a database program to determine how much time passed between each ping.

There were 24 times when three or more hours passed with Anthony’s phone remaining silent, Pipitone reported “And when you account for sleep and periods where she appeared to stay in the same place, we are left with three gaps — or dead zones — that raise some questions,” Pipitone said. 

The first “dead zone” was June 17 from 5:23 p.m. to 8:23 p.m. Anthony’s phone pinged a tower close to her boyfriend’s apartment near the University of Central Florida and then twice pinged a tower near Blanchard Park before going silent. The park was searched but nothing was found. In the time it took Anthony’s phone to ping another tower — three hours later — she could have traveled as far away as Palm Bay or Ormond Beach and returned to Orange County.

June 17 was a day after Caylee was seen alive by her grandfather, George Anthony, who said his daughter and Caylee left his home at about 12:50 p.m. the day before. Scientific evidence suggests that human remains that decomposed in the trunk of Anthony’s car was there for up to 2½ days after death, Pipitone said. That would mean if Caylee died on June 16, investigators may want to focus more on June 18 into June 19, which contained two dead zones on her cell phone, he reported. 

On June 18, Anthony’s phone went silent at 6:57 p.m. and did not ping another tower until 8:32 a.m. June 19. In both cases, her phone pinged a tower near her boyfriend’s apartment. Her whereabouts during that time is not known.

On June 19, Anthony’s phone pinged near her boyfriend’s apartment at 4:54 p.m., then her movements head south and east, according to cell phone pings, Pipitone said. “Heading east and hitting (a) cell tower on Lake Underhill Road … but from here, her cell phone goes dead for three hours and 17 minutes. Where could she have gone in that time?” Pipitone said. 
The last ping from the Lake Underhill tower was at 5:45 p.m., and the phone then went silent until a ping near her boyfriend’s apartment. She then called her parents’ home at 9:13 p.m., and there’s no indication where Anthony was during the time frame. 

“If this is the time Casey may have disposed of the body in her car trunk, there’s no indication where Caylee may be either,” Pipitone said.

REQUEST: Can anyone find out if Kid Finders had a connection to the Duckett case before Trenton was reported missing?  Maybe nothing, but it could go along with I've been working on.

Brian

On November 7, 2008, I attended what I thought was to be a training class at the Tabu night club in Orlando, but I quickly realized that the TE meeting had very little, if anything, to do with actually training so-called “Team Leaders” in any type of search and recovery whatsoever, in my personal opinion.

On November 8, 2008, I was present at the “Command Center” where many people were waiting for search assignments; however, much was made of the ill prepared nature of the organization that included casting blame over an amateur newsman for tying up the Internet capacity of the Holiday Inn, which reportedly tied up TE’s printing abilities.

In my opinion, the disorganization was not due to some phantom player at all.

During the long wait, I saw with own eyes many, many people approach Mr. Padilla and Rob Dick and ask for photographs to be taken with both men it is true. What is not reported is how a great number of these people shared their own thoughts, theories and opinions of the case. To this Mr. Padilla and Rob Dick studied each conversation and even sent me out to personally investigate some of the theory locations. This is how the car seat mentioned below was found.

You asked about Kidfinders and Trenton Duckett....it looks like Trenton's disappearance is the reason there is a Kid Finders Network.

 

History:

Kid Finders Network officially started October 4, 2006. It was founded by Dennis Milstead and Co-Founded by his wife, Sherri Milstead. The reason Kid Finders Network was started was because Dennis Milstead had a vision to do more in his life. He wanted to help children and families. Dennis and Sherri watched the news day after day and saw more and more children go missing. This is when he decided he wanted to help those who he thought needed his help the most, Missing Children. Dennis wanted to give them a voice they didn't have. What pushed Dennis and Sherri into actually pursuing his vision was the day little Trenton Duckett, from Leesburg, Fl. went missing. It was on Aug. 27, 2006, the day after Dennis's birthday. Sherri told Dennis that this little boy was calling there name and the only way to do something is to just do it. So from that day forward Dennis started planning and working to create the organization Kid Finders Network

Caylee Marie Anthony (born August 9, 2005) is an American girl from Orlando, Florida who has been missing since June 2008 and has attracted national attention for the mysterious and dubious circumstances of her disappearance and possible death. Her mother, Casey Anthony (born 1986), was indicted on October 14, 2008, for first-degree murder of Caylee. Police found Casey Anthony's account of Caylee's disappearance suspicious after learning that Casey had not reported her daughter missing for over a month. The last time Casey Anthony claimed to have seen Caylee was on June 9, 2008, but the child's disappearance was not reported to police until July 15, 2008.

Disappearance

Caylee Anthony was first reported missing to authorities on July 15, 2008. Caylee's grandmother, Cindy Anthony, reportedly called 9-1-1 when her daughter Casey Anthony, the mother of Caylee, would not produce the grandchild. Cindy Anthony had not seen her granddaughter for days and became alarmed when she smelled the odor of a "dead body" in the trunk of Casey Anthony's car. (Cindy Anthony later revised her account, stating that the smell was from old pizza.)^[1][2][3]

When police questioned Casey Anthony on the whereabouts of her daughter, she told them the child was with a babysitter. The purported babysitter, Zenaida "Zanie" Fernandez-Gonzalez, was said to have been caring for the child for over two years. But when a local woman named Zenaida Gonzalez (not Fernandez-Gonzalez) was found and questioned by police on July 17, 2008, she denied knowing either Casey or Caylee Anthony. When police asked the grandmother Cindy about the babysitter, Cindy said that she had no reason to doubt the account of Fernandez-Gonzalez caring for Caylee. However, in the nearly three years that Caylee was alive and living at Cindy Anthony's house, Cindy never once met the alleged babysitter.^[4]

From the start of the investigation, police were having trouble discerning fact from fiction when questioning the Anthony family. For instance, Caylee's grandparents, Cindy and George Anthony, told police that the last time they saw their granddaughter was on June 9, 2008, but there was evidence to the contrary. Authorities found a video tape, taken on June 15, 2008, that shows Caylee reading a book. When the grandparents were questioned about the time discrepancy, Cindy Anthony said that she had been confused about the dates. She then remembered taking Caylee to see Caylee's great-grandfather on Fathers Day. Cindy Anthony told police that her husband, George Anthony, went along with the dates because he took his wife's word on the facts. When police began to investigate Casey Anthony, they immediately found discrepancies in what she had told law enforcement in her signed statement. Much of the information Casey gave, starting with the babysitter account, turned out to be a lie. For example, Casey told police that she worked at Universal Studios. When police escorted her to the park, she led them to an office until finally admitting to them that she no longer worked there. Casey also claimed she had been investigating Caylee's disappearance on her own which is why she did not contact police earlier. However, friends and family denied being asked by Casey about Caylee. Photos of Casey partying while Caylee was missing were then published by media outlets.

Probable death

During the investigation, police discovered hair samples and a stain in the trunk of Casey Anthony's car. Though there were claims that the stain was from the victim's blood, at the time this fact had not been publicly confirmed. Instead, a lead investigator on the case said the hair was the major deciding factor leading authorities to believe that Caylee had indeed been in the trunk of Casey Anthony's car. Together with these findings, authorities "air tested" the area of the car trunk to determine if a decomposing body had been stored there. The results of the air test were sent to the University of Tennessee Anthropological Research Facility for forensic examination. These results confirmed that a body had been in the trunk.^[5][6]

Chloroform was found in Casey Anthony's car trunk and evidence was found that Casey searched the internet on the use of the chemical.^[7]

On October 21, 2008 the charges of child neglect were dropped against Casey Anthony. In a statement that morning, the State Attorney's Office explained: "The neglect charges were premised on the theory that her child, Caylee Marie, was still alive. As the investigation progressed and it became clear that the evidence proved that the child was deceased, the State sought an indictment on the legally appropriate charges." ^[8]

On Friday, October 24, 2008, a forensic report from Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee confirmed results from a DNA test showing "evidence consistent with decomposition" based on five "key" compounds found in the trunk of Casey Anthony's car. Whether or not the decomposition is human is still unknown but indicated as a possibility^[9].

Caylee's grandmother, Cindy Anthony, maintains that Caylee will be returned home alive. Cindy Anthony was interviewed on September 2, 2008, on the NBC morning show Today by the show's co-host, Matt Lauer. During the interview, Cindy Anthony stated that Caylee is probably with a friend or acquaintance of Casey Anthony. She went on to say, "I believe that Caylee is still alive, because I'm still getting phone calls of people who have seen Caylee and they're frustrated because the authorities aren't investigating."

On Thursday, November 13, 2008, divers searching the Little Econlockhatchee River for a sign of Caylee Anthony found a plastic bag with various items. Contrary to earlier reports, it did not contain bones. ^[10]

Publicity

The case has attracted international media attention and has regularly been the main topic of talk shows hosted by Greta Van Susteren, Nancy Grace, Geraldo Rivera, and others, and it has been featured on America's Most Wanted^[11] and ABC's 20/20. Caylee Anthony's disappearance is distinguished by a frustrating unexplained lack of critical information from Casey Anthony, who was initially charged with child neglect and making false statements to investigators and later charged with murder. However, while the Anthony grandparents relentlessly call upon the public to search for Caylee in places as far as Texas, Mexico, and Puerto Rico, they also insist that Casey is maintaining her silence in order to protect Caylee, and that searches for a dead body are unjustified.

Casey Anthony's parents, Cindy and George, appeared on the "Today Show" on October 22, 2008. They maintained that Caylee is alive and will be found.

Arrests

• August 21, 2008: Casey Anthony was released after one month incarceration. She walked out of the Orange County jail after her $500,200 bond was posted by California bounty hunter Leonard Padilla and his nephew Tony Padilla, a bail bondsman.^[12]

• August 29, 2008: Casey Anthony was arrested again at her house for charges of forgery, fraudulent use of personal information, and petty theft for forging $700 worth of checks and using her friend's credit cards without permission.^[13][14] Leonard Padilla subsequently rescinded the $500,200 in bail due to a lack of cooperation from Casey Anthony.^[15]

• September 5, 2008: Casey Anthony was released again on bail after being fitted with an ankle bracelet.^[16] Her $500,000 bond was posted anonymously.^[17] It was later discovered that Casey Anthony's parents, Cindy Anthony and George Anthony, signed a promissory note for the bond.^[18] The bond was posted by two separate bond offices for $250,000 each.

• September 15, 2008: Casey Anthony was arrested a third time on charges of theft.^[19]

• October 14, 2008: Casey Anthony was indicted by a grand jury on charges of first-degree murder and was arrested for the fourth time.^[20]

please read the post below as I posted in delphi forums.  Brian's site mentions a possible connection to illegal sale of steroids and GHB is commonly carried in visine bottles - Mrs. Sharon saw a bottle of visine at Greenwood
 
Someone posted on WS that the officer who Mrs. Sharon called is a real person and works for the department that would have jurisdiction over Greenwood Cemetary so I think we can assume Mrs. Sharon's e-mails and findings may be reliable.
Also, she mentions a bottle of visine that flew out from the rolled up bra:
"First I unearthed a woman’s sports bra. The bra was rolled together tightly, I took the stick and flung it from the hole, as it flew through the air, a Visine bottle fell out of it as it unrolled."

Hasn't anyone else heard that Visine is deadly??

"The estimated fatal dose of tetrahydrozoline for children up to 2
years of age is 5 mg intranasally (Handbook of Poisoning, 12th
Edition, 1987)... Each one fluid ounce bottle of Visine Eye Drops
contains approximately 15 mg of tetrahydrozoline HCl."

http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=601025

Google it...it's all over the web. Also you'll find Visine bottles are commonly to carry GHB. Could this be the connection to drugs?? GHB???
 
http://www.metroactive.com/papers/metro/12.14.00/mpnews2-0050.html
 
In Europe, GHB has been used as an anesthetic and experimentally to treat alcohol withdrawal.
read pg. 2 (GHB can be used to cause sedation?)
 
http://www.police.uci.edu/safety/publications/drugs.pdf
 
Anyone recall there may be a connection to drugs and illegal steroid sales (as mentioned on Brian's site):
 
GHB was first synthesized in 1960 and, before its harmful potential became known, was sold at health food stores as a dietary supplement. In the '80s, GHB was popular among bodybuilders because of its supposed ability to release a growth hormone and stimulate muscle growth.
 
For those who take GHB deliberately, the objective is to hit the "right level," says Porrata, "where you get the out-of-body buzz, like you're watching yourself on T.V." But, she says, it's a goal that many overshoot, risking deadly overdose.

Hi Brian,
 
Just an addition to my previous e-mail which I just saw now- GHB/chloroform/steroids all used in connection.  See these links.  Also, chloroform can be used to make GHB!
 
Extracting the goods

There are many options for this. This is still a work in progress, but after about 20 runs, I came to use this work up. You can use ethyl acetate (EtOAc), chloroform or methylene chloride (dichloromethane aka DCM) to perform the solvent extractions. I have normally used DCM as it's nice since the organic layer drops to the bottom of the separatory funnel.

Subject: Please read re: Caylee Case

Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2008 12:36:34 -0500

Hi everyone.
 
First I would like to offer my thanks to all of you for not giving up on Caylee and for continuing the search.
 
After reading a recent posting on briansprediction.com site by Ms. Sharon, some things stuck out to me.  On websleuths someone posted a link to this location (Greenwood Urban Wetlands):
 
http://www.cityoforlando.net/fpr/net/t_ParkRec.aspx?Park=053

Below is a copy of my posting on Delphi forums in relation to the above:
 
Message from Ms. Sharon: 

"I had a chance to look at some of the notes left on your Web Site. The hand written notes were compelling. You see how ever got park like, white cinder block building, sandy waters edge, and yellow flowers has it right on. This Cemetery is right in the middle of Orlando, but when you are down in the wetland area, you feel like your so secluded, perhaps out in the country, the grounds are manicured, as a park would be. When you walk down to the shoreline, and turn and look back at the Cemetery, you can't see any evidence of a Cemetery being there? You can see on bunch of lowly yellow flowers off the distance. At the waters edge your feet will stand in sand.

My vision was very clear, I knew the area was a Cemetery/park, and  that this Cemetery was in the middle of a city, I also got the planes over the tree tops, Plus the bridge between the two bodies of very black water waters. I saw something black plastic floating in the water.  I saw the yellow flowers, I could see this small child laying in the water, looking up at the planes.

I thank you again for replying to my letter, and hopefully someone will help retrieve Caylee from the wetlands."

 

This is the urban wetlands adjoining the Greenwood Cemetery - "park-like setting"????
I think this is it everyone!!!!  It makes total sense as this park acts as a "storm water treatment facility" and with the flooding from Faye it makes sense that she may have drifted there with the storm water!!

http://www.cityoforlando.net/fpr/net....aspx?Park=053
 
http://maps.google.com/?sll=28.53472,-81.36111&spn=0.05,0.05
 
Hurricane Faye flooding could have relocated Caylee's remains: 
 

"the land was reconfigured and lakes formed to handle massive amounts of rainwater runoff from the surrounding roadways." 

I really feel this area needs to be searched - so many coincidences. 

Thanks again for all you do TEAM.

Thanks Bailey will do.

Dear Brian,

I was catching up on the Caylee Anthony page 7 and noticed an 11-13
clip about TES and alcohol and your inquiry about a source for the
comment.

I do recall that back when TES was on Aruba and the Natalie Holloway
case was being covered by Greta van Susteren there were frequent
mentions made (if I recall correctly it was by family members) of TES
doing their searching while they were bombed on alcohol.  I believe
Tim Miller was mentioned specifically but can't say for sure.  I
certainly wouldn't be surprised if TM was a heavy drinker given his
traumatic history.  I've seen what emotional trauma/PTSD can do and
drinking is a frequent consequence.

Please don't use my email.

Regards,

Lil

Thanks Lil, if they are drinking on the job, it might be a good idea to stop.

Just watched the Grace Show and was impressed with Marc Klaas's statements...this guy needs to be in charge of the entire search...and I understand why he's pulling out.

Maybe if enough people ask him to stay, he will reconsider...this is a link to his website...maybe a petition could change his mind.

Brian

On page 7, someone sent you a copy of a ficticious name registration for Universal Ventures in Deerfield Beach.  This is not the Lee Anthony that is Casey's brother, it is an older gentleman.  Might be George's brother, however I can't really say as I do not know the names of his family members.  But I did want to let you know that it is not the Orlando Lee.

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35, Orlando) -- Psychic detective Gale St. John has returned to central Florida to continue her search for missing toddler, Caylee Anthony.

She intends to search a wooded area near Orlando International Airport today.

St. John first came in August with her group called the “Body Hunters.” At that time, St. John said she searched several areas on instinct to find the missing toddler.

She has not indicated why she plans to continue the search, but is currently accepting donations to help pay for expenses for the trip.

St. John was not the only psychic to help in the massive search. Also in August, spiritualist and psychic Cindy Smith spoke with Orange County Sheriff’s investigators and told them she knew where Caylee was located.

She said the little girl was close and in a vision, saw shoes covered with pink flowers.

In the five months since her disappearance, no one person or search team has been able to locate Caylee Anthony. Search groups from Texas Equusearch and a dive team gathered by bounty hunter Leonard Padilla have all left the area.

I have tried to tell a few people of this theory, but nobody is listening, so I thought I would try you and maybe you can pass it on to other members of the team.  Amy H wrecked a car the week before Caylee went missing.  According to text messages it was towed to a couple of different locations and then we never hear anything more about it.  A burnt out abandoned car would be a place to hide a body, especially if it were burnt too, with gas from stolen gasoline cans.

Brian et al,
 
Someone on Websleuths obtained this morning a copy of the police report filed in relation to the Ms. Sharon post on your site (the lady who found items at Greenwood).  This is the link to what the report contained and you will see that the investigating officer confirms there was indeed articles of clothing and bone fragments!! I am not sure if I am allowed to post links from other forums so it may not be wise to post this e-mail on your page, but please use your discretion - I don't want to be lynched by websleuthers!!

The Anthony's attorney, Mark Nejame, resigned as being their attorney stating that he cannot continue to represent people who are adamant that Caylee is still alive!  Thank goodness someone stopped drinking the Kool-Ade!  Here is the link:
 
http://www.wesh.com/news/18025590/detail.html
 
Also, someone on WS has posted the police report from Ms. Sharon - this proves that what she found is true.  I believe the clothing found relates to Casey.  The visine that was mixed in with the clothing is important clue.
 
And....surprise surprise - the Anthony's have called off their press conference: 

"due to recent developments and events this week, it has now become unnecessary to hold a press conference," said michelle bart, spokesperson for the anthony family."

 Apparently their big proof that Caylee is alive is this photo someone took - they say this is Caylee in a Florida mall:
 
http://www.cfnews13.com/News/Local/2008/11/20/nejame_resigns_as_anthony_family_attorney.html
 

 
Do they really expect that Caylee's so-called kidnappers would risk taking her out to a crowded Florida mall??? Everyone in Florida knows this little girl's face and someone would have approached her or who she was with if this were Caylee! 
 
Thanks for all you do and God bless

Thanks Bailey, it would be nice if Cindy told the police what she apparently told Mr. Nejame...his reason for leaving and the canceled press conference both make no sense.

I sent you a map the other day but I forgot to save it before I sent it.  This may help.  Oh, by the way the House that I sent you saying that it was Lee Anthony's house, I just wanted to tell you that I looked up Lee Anthony's Company name and that is where it was registered to.  I do not have the property deed or did not see one.  But like I said that is where is Business that he owns is registered to.

OCSO Abandons Hope To Find Caylee Alive

The Orange County Sheriff's Office exclusively told WESH 2 News that they are no longer following up on any tips that suggest Caylee Anthony is alive.

reply

Tips should always be followed up on...on any missing person case...especially children...regardless.

In most cases all they have to do is call another department and have that agency look into it...legally I think they would have to relay tips to other agencies.

Do not think it was wise for OCSO to make this statement and I hope they retract it.

In the search for Caylee Anthony I feel it could be very helpful if Gale (and whoever else currently with her who is intuitive) quietly go to the Sutton Place Apartments to see if they can pick up on anything.  I know the first time the team went to Florida they did some blind driving and this would be similar to see if they can feel anything in that area.  I think this is very IMPORTANT!

Casey spent a lot of time there with her boyfriend Tony after Caylee first went missing.  Heck, its even possible that something happened to Caylee there ( at Sutton Place)

either on the stairs, at the pool or maybe in Caseys car while it was parked there. 

If Gale doesn't pick up anything there then she should drive the mile to Cranes Landing Apartments, at 3440 N. Goldenrod Rd, where Casey and Tony looked at an apartment on June 19 and see if she picks anything up in that area.  I don't know how her abilities work but I think they are the key to finding Caylee Anthony if she just uses them!  I'm sorry this is so long I just want them to find her.

Please don't use my email address.  Thank you for all the good work you all do.

Brought this up before, but wanted to mention it again.

If someone's daughter or granddaughter goes missing, normal people do not lie or hide anything from the authorities...there are not secrets.

The only concern is the child...period.  Ask yourself, if your child went missing wouldn't you answer every question law enforcement posed?

I know I would tell them everything I knew...even if I had to tell me about the two acres of pot growing in my backyard. (that's a figure of speech)

Telling the truth is easy....you don't have to think...lying actually requires a lot of thinking and the thinking increases as time goes by.

http://media.myfoxorlando.com/photogalleries/112608discoverysettwo/1/lg/Anthony_pgs_2321-2400_R_Page_36.htm

It says "Jesse mentioned that in September of 2005, Casey mentioned that she didn't feel comfortable around her <blacked out>. Casey allegedly told him that before this day, <blacked out> had tried to have sex with her. Jesse didn't elaborate, but from the context of the conversation, he believed that Casey meant <blacked out> had tried to pressure Casey into having sex with her." LEE"?????
 
http://media.myfoxorlando.com/photog..._R_Page_03.htm

"'N' remembers 'Anth' mentioning to him that KC had alleged her father 'G' had "abused" her in the past. He didn't know what kind of abuse this implied, or when it happened."   GEORGE????
