Defense attorney visits Casey Anthony during memorial service

Jose Baez arrived at the Orange County Jail just after 9:30am Tuesday.
Baez brought his lap top computer into the room where he and Casey met. Outside the jail he was asked if Casey used it to watch coverage of the service.
"I'm not going to comment on what Casey is going through, what she does, what she doesn't do," he said.
Baez spent about two hours with Casey, and said he felt compelled to be with his client during the service.
He wouldn't say what he and Casey talked about or what her emotions were on a day the public mourned her daughters death.
"My client does not want to have me commenting on private matters."
Baez asked for privacy for the Anthony family and said "that includes Casey." He said Casey is holding up the best she can considering the circumstances.
Baez said he is preparing for trial and proving that Casey is innocent.
"I don't think anyone is ever ready for this type of situation," Baez said of Casey. "No one would ever be ready... living a normal life one day and being charged for murder the next."
What others are saying
- re: still in AmericaYes, you're still in America but are obviously out of your mind (or part of Caseys' "camp"). You want proof, here we go... she dosen't report daughter missing for over a month and actually never did, her mom did. During this time (before 911 call) she tells friends that it smells like death in HER car because her dad ran over squirrels....lie, George did not use her car. Searches for chloroform, household weapons, etc on computer when she was only one home at time (mom and dad were at work) and large concentration of chloroform detected in trunk of car. I could go on and on but am just wasting my time going over what everybody already knows and you'll just end up telling me that some "one armed man" set it all up. I can't wait for them to find her finger prints all over the tape. But then her defense will have some excuse, like aliens came down put her in a trance and commanded her to kill her daughter, then removed that memory from her mind and deposited her safely back to her favorite bar for a hot body contest. Well, it is as likely as their fugitive story.
- The Memorial BullThe reason Casey didn't want the memorial service is because she doesn't want Caylee to have any attention. Casey wants to be the victim. And her sick family ended up making it about Casey to appease the little tyrant brat!
- TypoUm....correction. "Baez said he is preparing for trail..." Its trial. Just a little one but he needs no mistakes by his name given he is already seemingly mistaken in working in the defense of a woman who lied about taking her daughter to a babysitter's apartment that was vacant for months!! I mean come on!!! Just looking and listening to the facts!!! I heard Casey's mother say the car smelled like a dead body had been in it!!! Some mothers would have caught a case themselves and possibly have been justified in choking their own daughter nearly to death in the search for their missing granddaughter especially after a smell like "dead body"!!!! Gross!! Lord have mercy please!!! No matter how this ends most people will never smell their loved one's rotting and dying flesh and Cindy, George, and Casey will awake from sleep with those memories for the rest of their lives. That poor poor sweet little girl was abused behind closed doors with no one to turn to except her very old grandfather who is the only one that saw that looked as if he would have never harmed a hair on her little head. And she wasn't able to see him on her own. She had to be taken to visit and video recorded living the last moments of her life. Very very peculiar. Please someone get the best people on this case. The best people in the world to expose the truth for Caylee. Show how people use the system to hurt children or get rid of them. Someone who can uncover this kind of diviant behavior and give America the signs to look for so we can protect ourselves from these kinds of monsters that could live right next door!!! Lord have mercy!
- Am I still in America?Innocent until proven guilty! Jose Baez better ask for a change of venue to a country that does not have T.V. There could have been other reasons Casey felt guilty about her daughter's disappearance and could not face her parents and other relatives. Unless any of the people who have pre-judged Casey Anthony has proof that she killed Caylee, i.e. they saw her do it or saw her disposing of Caylee's body they should keep their accusations to themselves and let justice take its course. Her daughter's disappearance could have caused a mental breakdown and explain Casey's inappropriate behavior during the 31 days that her disappearance was not reported.
- KC MemorialYeah, how funny she was not going to watch through jail but had her buddy there to see it with him. That way nobody would know that she didn't cry.
- She'll ruin your lifeGet smart Baez. Casey has ruined the lives of everyone she has come in contact with. She will ruin yours, if she hasn't already ruined your reputation!!!!
- Innocent vs. "Legally" Not GuiltyOnly Casey can set things right- for herself - for her own salvation in this and in the next life - without attorney's - without the media scrutiny - by owning up to what she knows is true and undoubtable - the fact that for whatever reason - she was responsible for bringing this precious child into the world - and in taking her out. Let us still remember, in our last moment of consciousness, and we will all face it one day, there is no denial, no bargaining, and no more time. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone - we all have unfinished business before our creator. Casey just needs to come clean - and accept the consequences for her actions - just like all of us.
- private mattersYES, Casey is so private.. she didn't even want her family or police involved for 31 days after her daughter dissapeard! Private matters... Even if her hands were not on that little girl when she died.. her 31 day wait killed her. that is for sure.. shame on her.. she is hoping a police blunder or dna mistake will get her off instead of her being truly innocents? Good for her. see how that worked out for OJ?
- Baez- you're a sick man!Baez- you're a sick man! You're still claiming Casey's innocent!
- Are you kidding me?"I don't think anyone is ever ready for this type of situation," Baez said of Casey. "No one would ever be ready... living a normal life one day and being charged for murder the next."
She calls life before jail living a normal life??? She should go for insanity!!! - baez"I don't think anyone is ever ready for this type of situation," Baez said of Casey. "No one would ever be ready... living a normal life one day and being charged for murder the next." ok baez she wasn't living a normal life her daughter was gone and she was partying took her over a month to report it well only cause her monther cught up with her. soooooooo please spare me the whining
- Baez statement"....for this type of situation," Baez said of Casey. "No one would ever be ready... living a normal life one day and being charged for murder the next."
Jose just DOES NOT get it. Even when he speaks. LIVING LIFE NORMAL ONE DAY, ARRESTED THE NEXT. Umm, what about those 30+ days in between there ol' Jose when her BABY was missing?
That duo makes me sick. - Bozo's stupid commentsI don't think Casey's life could be described as "normal" on the day before she was charged with murdering her daughter. He is slime and I don't know how anyone could defend that mom-ster!!
- CASEY ANTHONYOf course ,she was just livin her life while her Daughter was missing !!!
She's a nut and so is her Lawyer ...
