The Orlando Sentinel has followed up on an earlier report of the mysterious Todd Black, spokesman for the attorney in the high profile case of Casey Anthony-Jose Baez.
Black has refused to give his real name, address, or to be interviewed live. He did release information in a PR attempt to criticize Florida State Attorney Lawson Lamar, claiming he was using the Anthony case in a bid for re-election.
In a Sept. 4 news release, Black wrote that Press Corps Media “has been retained by The Baez Law Firm to coordinate any and all media inquiries.”   source
Timothy Chinaris, attorney for Jose Baez, wrote a letter to the Bar after Baez came under investigation for having “contingency” dealings with entertainment companies in order to collect for his services for Casey Anthony. According to Newsday.com, Chinaris stated that Press Corps Media was retained by a Connecticut family “who is sympathetic to the plight of Ms. Anthony and her family.”
Black has said his last name is an “abbreviated” form he’s used professionally in the past.
The Public Relations Society of America’s code of ethics lists “honesty” as one of its professional values, and states members must “be honest and accurate in all communications,” and “avoid deceptive practices.”   source

Below is a video in which Todd Black is heard speaking on the behalf of Jose Baez. He sparked curiosity about how much inside information he had about the case when he mentioned the “loss of the life of that little girl.” Listen:

“He [Black] does not have any legal opinions whatsoever. He’s simply a spokesman for our firm.” stated Baez in October.
Former FBI agent Jack Trimarco recognized his voice from a case he had worked in the 80’s in which Cabot had tried to extort money from Entertainment Tonight anchor Jann Carl. He stated he was going to show photos of her having sex with another man if she didn’t pay  $30,000. He claim...

Prosecutor Linda Drane Burdick and Jose Baez-Photo by Red Huber
Attorney for Casey Anthony, Jose Baez, filed a motion to have the state prosecutors thrown off the case alleging improprieties and media leaks. New York attorney Linda Kenney Baden also signed the motion asking for the recusal. Here is a link to that motion: click here
This comes after the Florida Bar had launched an investigation after rumored “entertainment deals” with contingency fees attached began to shadow Baez’s reputation and professionalism. The investigation was halted January 22.
Most of the confusion surrounds the mysterious spokesman for the defense, Todd Black, who claims his name is an abbreviation to protect his real identity, of Press Corps Media, whose company released negative statements against the State Attorney, Lawson Lamar. It would be illegal for anyone in Baez’s employ to slander another attorney-especially the State Attorney.
Since the State Attorney’s Office had faxed a letter claiming an anonymous person had initiated the investigation, Baez is retaliating by claiming that same office is trying to violate Casey Anthony’s Sixth Amendment Right to counsel of her choice. Baez has asked that the Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum step in and intercede.
Prosecutor Linda Drane Burdick contends that the defense attorney that wrote the motion filed the wrong one, and, that no prosecutor assigned to this particular case was involved in bringing about the investigation by the Florida Bar.
Timothy Chinaris, attorney for Baez, had written a letter to the bar back in November explaining the relationship of Baez’s Law Firm with Todd Black. As it turns out, a Connecticut family has donated funds to pay for Baez’s spokesman because the family “… is sympathetic to the plight of Ms. Anthony and her family.” source

Caylee Doll
Just when you thought the exploitation of the missing and murdered child Caylee Marie Anthony couldn’t get much worse, Showbiz Productions’ plans to put their new Caylee Sunshine line of “tributes” to Caylee on sale next Tuesday. The blonde haired, blue-eyed doll is 18″ high and will retail for $29.99. It will play You Are My Sunshine every time a button on its belly is pushed.
If you are really into becoming fans of the interactive murder mystery that has swept the nation, you may also purchase a Caylee Sunshine bracelet.
Jaime Salcedo, president of Showbiz Promotions, said he is not selling a doll that looks exactly like Caylee because it would be too morbid and difficult for the public.  Orlando Sentinel
Too morbid?? After all we’ve seen, heard, and read, I have to wonder where the line actually is!
Here is an interview on News 6:

I can only imagine that they will later produce miniature rolls of duct tape and heart shaped stickers to go with the doll so that children may role play how children should be treated. Perhaps an Easy Bake oven would go nicely with the Caylee Sunshine collection as they could warm up stale pizza under a 60 watt light bulb.
Then, they will come up with a pet squirrel, a brunette “tot mom,” and other dehumanizing characters that have been involved in the exploitation of this innocent child God sent to earth to show the splendors he had created. I am soooo glad she is actually with God right now instead of here with the rest of us!
I can recall hearing some FBY profiler on Nancy Grace stating something about Cindy taking medication for dealing with the stress and anxiety of their current situation. He was like-so what, more than half of America is on medication-makes you wonder why, huh?
Showbiz Promotions plan to catch the same gravy train that Leonard Padilla, Nancy Grace, and the other media outlets are on. They wish to split their current market, promising to donate $3.00 of every doll sold to a missing c

Memorial services planned for slain toddler Caylee Marie Anthony will be held at the First Baptist Church of Orlando this Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. Seating is expected to begin prior to 9:00 a.m. as they expect attendance to be in the thousands.
Cindy Anthony, Caylee’s grandmother, has written a eulogy- Click here to read. The grandparents have asked that in lieu of flowers that donations be made to various organizations. They have also requested that only those with the purest of heart attend. Here is an excerpt of Mrs. Anthony’s words:
“Caylee’s life may have been short-lived on this earth, but her life will not have ended without a purpose,” Cindy Anthony wrote. “She will be sadly missed but never forgotten. Caylee Marie Anthony now has her angel wings and will be watching over so many other children.”   source
Brad Conway, attorney for George and Cindy Anthony, has stated that they will demand dignity for Caylee on her day to be remembered. This is not about the upcoming murder trial of Caylee’s mother Casey Anthony, nor is it about the grandparents and what they may have done wrong-this service is solely for Caylee!
Knowing that may not happen, all in attendance will be required to pass through a metal detector. No cell phones, purses, or cameras will be allowed in the church-security will be tight.
Leonard Padilla, the California bounty hunter who posted Casey Anthony’s $500,000 bond back in August will not be allowed to attend the services, though he may drop by the location where Caylee’s remains were discovered by meter reader Roy Kronk back on December 11th to pay his respects. Padilla hosted a prayer vigil for Caylee back on November 11th.
So, this may be an excellent opportunity for those of you that may not be able to pass through a metal detector, are carrying firearms or other implements of destruction, are prone to emotional outbursts, heavily medicated, fell compelled to harass and slander any and everyone that has volunteered, wr.

Here are two videos of the Dr. Phil Show-the other two you can see at YouTube. I just thought these two were the meat of the story. Grund explains how websites have damaged his reputation.

Notice that holier than thou look on Grace’s face as if she is actually doing Caylee justice…unbelievable! This child is her and Padilla’s gravy train.

Grund also declares that the Anthonys’ were pointing a finger at him. Well, that is to be expected since he and Casey were once engaged and he probably had more contact with the child than any other boyfriend Casey had. George and Cindy probably weren’t even aware of the other boyfriends.
Below is a site that belongs to Sean Krause, the guy that was interviewed on Greta not too long ago. He is going to write a book about his experiences in the Caylee Anthony Case-this information came out right after George Anthony was admitted into the psychiatric hospital. He claims that Cindy Anthony confided in him, as if he were Dr. Phil, and admitted things to him no one else knows. He also claims to be a “friend” of Mark NeJame-here is a link to an earlier blog, the video is at the bottom of the page Listen to this guy, this is as ugly as he is:

I checked out his site once. He speaks out about PAP smears, making a leap into abortion…he is a real nut case! Apparently some stupid girl thinks he is cute.
I don’t know about you, but, is he really capable of writing a book? Shouldn’t he be on meds? It’s like the creme of the crud never ends!
And, when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, an investigative tabloid wants you to give them your personal information, including credit card information, to send flowers to the Anthonys! Check out the spill below with weblink:

Jose Baez has been battling the media since day one and feels they are preventing his client from getting a fair trial; Casey Anthony has not attended most of the hearings since her incarceration. Baez stated that requiring Anthony’s presence at pre-trial hearings “only fuels the circus-like atmosphere which paints the Defendant in a negative light.” Orlando Sentinel
Baez talks about tabloid coverage:

From WFTV:

Casey’s defense team is waiting for decisions on several of the new motions f...

Mark Furhman talks with Greta about the air freshener sheets found in Casey Anthony’s and Tony Lazzaro’s vehicles. He believes the tiny sheets were used to mask the incredibly horrendous smell left by the decomposing body in Casey’s 1998 Pontiac. He also speculates on the color of handle on the trash bags in the area including the one in which Caylee Anthony’s body was found on December 11th.

What amazes me is that the trash bag left in the trunk of Casey’s car was white, while the bag which contained Caylee’s body was the exact opposite-black. Not only was Caylee double bagged, first in a laundry bag, then placed in the black trash bag, but iron on letters were also found with the remains.
It hasn’t been indicated if these letters fell off her hat, which was recovered around the time that Roy Kronk had first reported the strange bag to authorities back in August, or, if they were from an arts and crafts supply kit that perhaps Casey made crafts-like the cross Padilla found in Jay Blanchard Park back in August too.
The similarities that strike me the most is that not only was the body placed in a laundry bag, but, a detergent bottle was also among the trash-containing chemicals unknown-which seems to go with the fabric softener sheets found in the vehicles. Tell me if I’m way off base here-perhaps it’s just a leap of logic on my part.

Jose Baez is seeking information on Richardo Morales, former boyfriend of Casey Anthony, including forensic computer reports which include a photo of “Win Her Over With Chloroform” the Morales says he posted on his MySpace site at the beginning of 2008. Casey and Morales had dated from January until about mid-April, two months prior to the disappearance of Caylee Anthony, whose duct taped skull was discovered in December near the grandparents home.
Some files had been deleted the day that Morales laptop was turned over to detectives that had said there was no incriminating evidence found on his computer.
Casey Anthony had lived with friends at the Sawgrass Apts., including best friend Amy Hueizanga, whose checks she had used at Target and for cash while she was in Puerto Rico. Amy had loaned Casey her car while she was away.
She had just moved in with a new boyfriend, Tony Lazzaro, about the time Caylee is beleived to have gone missing. She is reported to have been working at the Fusion Club, hired by Lazzaro, to manage the shot girls.Fusions is a popular hip hop club in the area and Lazzaro's roommate and another friend worked there as well-one was a DJ, and the other, a photographer.
I found this great hiphop site and decided to include an excerpt. I think this explains how and why the grandparents reacted the way they did even after everyone had decided Caylee was dead. Check out the entire site-link below:
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 out of over 400 possible found in the trunk of Casey Anthony’s car. DNA samples cannot confirm whether the source is alive or dead. The only DNA testing by the FBI was limited to 752 base pairs out of 16,569 base pairs (less than 5% of the mitochondrial genome sequence). Whether or not the decomposition is human is still unknown but indicated

George and Cindy Anthony Photo by Red Huber
George Anthony, father of Casey Anthony who now sits in jail awaiting her March trial on first degree murder charges in the death of her two-year-old daughter Caylee, may be released from Halifax Medical Center in Daytona as early as tomorrow after a recent suicide attempt in a Daytona motel. Mr. Anthony was tracked down by the OCSO after sending text messages to his family suggesting he didn’t want to live any longer and longed to be with his granddaughter whose remains were found near their Orlando home in December while they were in California giving an interview on Larry King Live.
Since their daughter Casey was incarcerated back in July, the grandparents have experienced conflicting beliefs over the whereabouts of their granddaughter; based largely on what their daughter Casey had told them about her childs’ disappearance, and perhaps what others involved in missing childrens’ cases have told them about past cases. They continued to hold on to hope that Caylee Marie would be found alive until her skeletal remains were recovered and sent off to labs across the country for DNA analysis to confirm that the child was actually Caylee Marie Anthony.
Mike Defrost discusses the incongruous behavior and statements exhibited by Mr. Anthony during the time they were searching for Caylee:

After details were released surrounding the disappearance of Caylee Anthony, the media and protesters swarmed the middle class neighborhood in Orlando to be the first to reel in “breaking” news about the family. For many, the smell of death in the trunk of Casey’s car was enough to convict her on murder charges- even without a body. Many armchair psychologists whose experience is limited to the Dr. Phil Show, Oprah, and TV newscasts, ranted and raved outside the Anthony home in an attempt to “help them through their denial phrase.”
Webcams, reporters, licensed private detectives and online armchair detectives, whose experience m

Jose Baez and Casey Anthony
The Florida Bar is preparing a case against Jose Baez, attorney for accused murderess Casey Anthony, who is rumored to have entertainment contracts in place to pay for his so called “Dream Team” which is reported to be contingent upon the outcome of the trial. Expert witnesses, including renowned scientists from across the nation, and one from Canada, have been brought in to refute the evidence the State of Florida has brought against Anthony:

Dr. Henry Lee
Dr. Lawrence Kobilinsky
Dr. Marcella Fierro
Kathy Reichs
Scott Ian Fairgrieve
Timothy E. Huntington

Rumors of misconduct surfaced after Baez brokered a deal for licensing fees and received $200,000. Here is a link to WFTV’s report.
“How is he affording to represent her and are the decisions being made in her best interest and with her permission?” attorney Richard Hornsby said.
Baez said he knows about the investigation and said it’s been filed by people with an ax to grind.   source
The video below may yield clues to whose ‘ax’ should be put to the whetstone-Baez kicks a WFTV’s reporter out of his office after Anthony was indicted on murder charges in October after lab reports from the Body Farm, testimony from the defendants own father, and a hair matching that of missing Caylee Anthony showed a death band near the root proved that there had been a dead body at one time in the trunk of Casey’s 1998 Pontiac Sunbird-abandoned at a local Amscot- prior to being retrieved by the grandparents, George and Cindy Anthony, from Johnson’s towing service in Orlando Fla.:

The twenty-two year old mother of the toddler had lied to investigators regarding her employment and had claimed her daughter had been taken by a babysitter she had known for four years. Anthony had also been charged with economic crimes stemming from the use of stolen checks taken from the glove compartment of  her best friends car, who had been away on vacation, and used them at a local Target...

A psychic, Ginnette Matcia Lucas,  confirmed that she was the other person on the phone with private investigator Dominic Casey when Jim Hoover filmed him in the wooded area off Suburban Dr. just weeks before the discovery of Caylee Anthony’s remains by meter reader Roy Kronk.
Lucas claims to have had a dream which woke her up at 3:00 a.m. on November 15th after having held a teddy bear which once belonged to the two-year-old deceased child and studying maps of the area.   source
Mr. Casey can be seen rummaging through trash bags near what appears to be an abandoned house with two outdoor sheds. He is seen turning over cap blocks near what may be a patio, and whisking away a blanket near a cabinet door with what appears to be a dust mask close by. He is later filmed probing the marshy surroundings with what may be a metal stick. Here is the film again:

Much mention has been made about three stones, and Mr. Casey saying “It should be here.”
What I saw appeared to be man-made concrete blocks, not paver bricks, and certainly not stones.
I often wonder about these so-called psychics and how they decode objects they think they see-perhaps it was a euphemism for something else. She was close, but no tomato! Of course, close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Mr. Casey has taken a lot of heat over this film.
In addition, WESH news has discovered that the deputy that took the call to investigate a sighting made by Roy Kronk back in August is being investigated and disciplinary action is expected. Kronk said on Good Morning America this morning that the man was “rude” to him and didn’t investigate the sight at all.
Meanwhile, the grandparents of the slain toddler, George and Cindy Anthony, are still planning a funeral. They are considering cremating the remains due to all the media attention and people looking to profit from the little girls death. They fear she will be dug up at a future date by ghoulish people seeking souvenirs or such.
They do kn

Sources to News 6 report that they have overwhelming evidence that will convict Casey Anthony on murder charges. Botanists and entomologists will prove that Caylee Anthony’s body was dumped by Casey Anthony on June 18th, approximately the time that a neighbor reported she had borrowed a shovel, by the plants that had grown inside the skeletal remains and the bugs that were in the area at the time the body was discovered on December 11th.

(It’s my understanding that the area was knee deep in water after tropical storm Faye, and didn’t recede completely until about the first week of November; how could plants grow under water?)
A tip had pointed searchers to the very area off Suburban Dr. where the toddlers remains were recovered a month earlier; someone had claimed to have seen Casey Anthony’s 1998 white Pontiac near the woods in June, according to private investigator Jim Hoover.

Hoover, with attorney David Evans, said he did not work for the Anthonys’ but volunteered his services to help with the protesters that stormed the neighborhood after California bounty hunter Leonard Padilla posted the $500,000 bond to release Casey Anthony back in August-here’s a video interview with Hoover’s attorney. Hoover also claims that Dominic Casey, the private investigator that once worked for Casey Anthony’s defense lawyer, Jose Baez, and was also employed by George and Cindy Anthony, knew where Caylee Anthony’s body was prior to the  discovery by meter reader Roy Kronk in December.
Kronk had called deputies three times in August about something suspicous  in that area.
Hoover claims that not only did he film Casey digging near some bricks on November 15th in which a black bag could be seen emerging from the ground, but, he also saw Mr. Casey make several phone calls; perhaps from numerous phones. 
A legal analyst comments on Casey’s actions:

He mentions that Mr. Casey could have cracked the skull or damaged evidence by searching for the remains by p

Zenaida Gonzalez
Casey Anthony appeared in court today, the first time since she was indicted in October on first degree murder charges in the death of her daughter Caylee Marie Anthony.
A compromised was reached concerning the 800 photos taken of evidence, the crime scene, and the remains of the two-year-old who was found December 11th near the home of George and Cindy Anthony, parents of Casey Anthony. Judge Strickland agreed that the photos could be stored on a password-protected database in which the defense team could access. Jose Baez and his team will have to sign an affidavit swearing that the photos will not be reproduced.

A victory for the Baez law firm was won in the civil suit against Anthony in which Zenaida Gonzales claims the use of her name contributed to her loss of employment and defamed her as many thought she was the “Zani” who Casey claimed took Caylee from her back in June.
“The court will not allow the deposition to take place as it has been indicated at this time,” Judge Jose Rodriguez said in court. source
Baez argued Casey Anthony could incriminate herself prior to going to court on the murder charges in March. However, Morgan and Morgan may be allowed to summit written question for Anthony to answer and return. Here is a link to an interview with the attorneys for Zenaida Gonzales.
“It’s a victory for Anthony because she doesn’t have to answer questions live at this time and can consult with her lawyer when she’s answering these questions,” Bill Sheaffer told Eyewitness News.
“They cannot have their cake and eat it too,” Morgan said, adding that Anthony “can’t sue someone and then say, ‘You can’t question me because of the Fifth Amendment.’ ” source
Morgan plans to question both Casey Anthony’s parents and her brother Lee Anthony as well.

remains on November 15th. Here’s a link.This is contrary to previous statements he had made  on CNN.
Here is a link in which a reporter states Padilla’s theory of what happened to Caylee Anthony back in mid-November (Padilla’s buoyancy theory!).
He never explains how the mysterious hair got on the shovel Casey borrowed from the neighbor back in June-while it was in the  forensic lab. (If you recall, three policeman lost their job during the investigation of this case-two were ex-boyfriends of Casey Anthony, the third on is not known…could this explain why Casey didn’t want to call the police?).
Dominic Casey
Dominic Casey admits he was in the wooded area where Caylee Marie Anthony remains were discovered in a trash bag December 11th on November 15th. He claims to have been searching to see if this really was a place that teens went to party. He may have gotten that information from the discovery documents that were released earlier in which Kio Kruz, childhood friend of Casey Anthony, tells the detective where she would look for Caylee; anyone else could have had access to the same information as well.(Why Casey and her friends would prefer to party in the woods with eastern diamond back rattle snakes instead of at Fusions or any of the other nice clubs they frequented is beyond me).
Casey said Hoover simply showed up at the Anthony’s door one day and
offered to help them deal with protesters free of charge, and the
Anthony’s allowed it. source
This is believable since they chose a missing persons organization which is headed by a man once arrested for impersonating a police officer and allowed Leonard Padilla to bail their daughter out of jail because they could not afford to post the $500,000 bond. It cost Padilla about $50,200 to set Casey free-he has received worldwide advertising for doing so and continues to hold the spotlight to this
