It is being reported that the FBI is fast tracking some DNA tests on some skeletal bones that were found by a utility worker this morning to see if they belong to Caylee Marie Anthony, the 3 year old little girl who has been missing since late June. The remains were found 3/4 of a mile away from the home of Cindy and George Anthony, Caylee Marie Anthony's grandparents.
The worker found the bones in a black garbage bag that had been closed using duct tape. This is the same color and type of bag that was reportedly found in Casey Anthony's car where the terrible odor in the trunk was the first physical evidence that something was terribly wrong.
These remains were found about a half an hour after a judge decided that the parties in the Casey Anthony case were not ready for the January 5th trial date and set the starting trial date for January 15, 2009. The hearing also included Jose Baez asking for a change of venue for the trial, complaining that there has been too much media coverage for a his client, Casey Anthony, to get a fair trial. However, he seems to forget that he has been out there, declaring Casey's innocence from the beginning and gaining as much media as anyone else.
Cindy and George Anthony are out in California, following up one of many "Caylee sightings" that have been coming in more frequently since a description of Zenaida Gonzalez, given by Casey, was made public. They appeared on the Larry King show last night, once again saying that their daughter is innocent and their grandchild, Caylee Marie, is still alive.
I am hoping that they are right and that Caylee Marie is alive, however, I have a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach that Caylee Marie Anthony's body has finally been found. The FBI is moving as quickly as possible to try to identify the remains so we should all find out by tonight or early tomorrow.

Casey Anthony Indicted By Grand Jury
Yesterday Casey Anthony's luck seemed to run out. The mother of missing 3 year old tot, Caylee Marie Anthony was indicated by a Grand Jury on 7 different counts. The counts were first-degree murder, aggravated manslaughter and four counts of lying to investigators about the disappearance of Caylee. Casey is being held without bond, so this time she will definitely have to stay in jail.
If Casey Anthony is convicted of manslaughter she could be facing the death penalty or life in prison. It is my understanding from watching Nancy Grace that if Casey Anthony is given the death penalty and it is carried out, she would be the first woman in Florida history to be put to death.
It only took the Grand Jury 30 minutes after listening to the facts of the case, despite not having a body, to indict Casey Anthony. I can only guess that the prosecution made a pretty good case without having to have the body. As everyone knows, what goes on in a Grand Jury trial is kept secret from the public, although yesterday speakers outside the courthouse were turned on and filtered into the media trucks parked outside. However, they were warned that they could face charges of criminal contempt if they repeated anything they had heard. I wonder. will that stop them?
What got me the most was the fact that Casey Anthony cried yesterday when the indictment came down. Now, I'm sure most of us would cry if they were facing life in prison or death. What gets me about this situation is that through this whole thing, Casey has never once broke down in tears in front of the public. Not when her child was supposedly kidnapped. Not all the months she was "searching" for her daughter in between spending stolen money at various places such as Target and Winn-Dixie. Not when it's been 4 months since she's seen little Caylee. Instead, she was out partying with her friends, buying beer and living off her friends money.
I'm sorry if I sound heartless, no, really I'm not. Casey Anthony, Susan Smith or any of the other mothers who have killed their children (supposing Casey has killed Caylee and it seems that's what has happened more and more every day) with premeditation should be killed or at the very least spend their entire lives behind bars without parole.
There is no worse crime than hurting or killing an innocent child or an elderly person. People who cannot defend themselves. It is cowardly, mean and beyond comprehension for most people, including myself. Children are meant to be coddled and loved. Elderly people are meant to be treated with respect. What has this world come to when you see more and more mothers killing their children, throwing their newborns into trash containers or rolling them into a river in a car?
As a mother who thought she could never have children and was finally blessed after 10 years of marriage with three children, I do not understand why these parents believe that killing their child is the only option of getting rid of them. There are so many couples out in the world who would love to have a child. Who hope and pray to God every day for one. Who would love to raise these children who are getting killed. From watching this case on Nancy Grace night after night, I know for a fact that Cindy and George Anthony would gladly have raised little Caylee if Casey no longer wanted to. They should have been given that chance.
Casey, you can cry those crocodile tears all you want. I do not feel sorry for you in the least. It is little Caylee who I pray for and hope that is still, miraculously still alive somewhere.

Casey Anthony To Face Grand Jury: Murder or Manslaughter?
Jessica D'Onofrio of WKMG, a local television station in Orlando, Florida, broke the news story that Casey Anthony, mother of missing Caylee Marie Anthony will be brought before the Grand Jury next Tuesday. D'Onofrio said that Anthony's case will be the last one for this Grand Jury before they are dissolved and another group of people are seated.
D'Onofrio told Nancy Grace said the Florida State's Attorney's Office is set to seek homicide charges against Casey three months after the tot went missing. Since they do not need a body to charge Casey Anthony with the murder of her daughter, Caylee, the state feels it has enough evidence to prove that Casey did indeed murder her daughter.
There are hair samples which match Caylee's and air samples taken from the trunk of the abandoned car. Also, the cadavir dogs were alerted when scenting the trunk, proving that there had been a human body or remains in the back of the car. There were also high chloroform levels found in the trunk and after finding Casey Anthony's search about chloroform on her computer, investigators are positive that Casey definitely had something to do with the disappearance of her daughter, 3 year old Caylee Marie Anthony. D'Onofrio also said that the Florida detectives had been working very hard on this case and she suspected they had more evidence than this that they were holding back until the Grand Jury meeting. She said she would not be surprised to hear of lots more things coming to light.
No subpoenas had been given out as of yesterday, but George and Cindy Anthony were told to clear their calendar for Tuesday. It is also believed that Amy Heizel, Casey Anthony's supposed best friend and the one Casey stole from along with Anthony Lazzaro, Casey's boyfriend at the time will also be called as will several detectives and lab techs.
I have been following this case since it first began, hoping and praying that they would find little Caylee Marie healthy and hidden somewhere but I have begun to lose hope. All the evidence is pointing to the fact that Casey Anthony, whether she got mad at her mother and killed Caylee out of spite or whatever, did indeed kill her little girl. And what makes it worse, the murder seems to have been pre-meditated. Searches on the web for chloroform, poems talking about how God gives things that can be taken away, her mental demeanor during questioning and especially on the tapes just days after Caylee supposedly went missing, shopping up a storm and appearing to be enjoying spending her friend's money with not an item for Caylee in sight, is very disgusting.
How could a mother get rid of her daughter either by giving her away or killing her just because she's jealous of her mother's relationship to her child? How could a mother just go through her everyday life, partying, stealing and shopping while allegedly not knowing where her 3 year old daughter is? How could a woman be so hard hearted as to not tell police where her daughter's remains are, so that there can be a proper burial?
I believe that detectives and officials have gone with the Grand Jury thing not only to try to get an indictment but to use the Grand Jury as an investigative tool. I also believe they think if Casey Anthony is faced with the realization that she could spend the rest of her life in jail or worse, she will finally quit spewing out all the lies she has been telling since the day she was brought in and tell the truth. Hopefully, lead them to Caylee Marie Anthony's body, but I'm not holding my breath.
This is one tough girl. She doesn't mind partying and living the high life while her daughter is "missing". She shows no ounce whatsoever of remorse or worry for Caylee. She doesn't mind stealing her "best friends" checkbook and writing checks all over town until her friend is broke. This woman is a selfish user and most likely a murderer. I hope I am wrong and that Caylee is safe with someone else but I fear the worse.
