Special thanks to Jenni at Topix for groundwork on obtaining the following information.
_________________________________________________
Joy Wray – self-professed “angel for Caylee” – and apparent defense witness de jour, who has submitted a handwritten note to Judge Strickland detailing all her inside information, has an illustrative past. Unlike Roy Kronk, who was the target of a character assassination attempt by the defense team for Casey Anthony – a legal team that went so far as to allege he may have been involved in the murder of Caylee – Joy Wray (maiden name Joy Roseann Maggard), has a rap sheet that shows habitual criminal activity and spurts of – dare I say – insane behavior. Roy Kronk has no criminal record.
It seems 1998 was the year of Joy’s “coming out party” from a criminal standpoint. She had a very busy year.
5/31/98 – Fraudulent use of credit cards – adjudicated guilty
- Expired or revoked credit cards – adjudication withheld
- theft, obtaining credit cards through fraudulent means – reduced to theft – adjudication withheld
7/5/98 - trespassing – adjudicated guilty
7/7/98 - trespassing – adjudicated guilty
7/8/98 - trespassing – adjudicated guilty
9/4/98 - Battery – adjudicated guilty
- Battery – adjudicated guilty
9/26/98 – Burglary – reduced to criminal mischief – adjudicated guilty
10/07/98- criminal mischief – adjudicated guilty
10/20/98- charged with criminal mischief – disposition unknown
- trespassing – adjudicated guilty
- theft – adjudicated guilty
11/13/98- theft – adjudicated guilty
She seems to have settled down for almost a year after this. Maybe someone back in her past who actually cared about her got her some help. But a year was all she could make.
11/22/99- breach of peace, disorderly conduct – adjudicated guilty
- battery – adjudicated guilty
- obstructing justice, resisting officer – adjudicated guilty
After that she had about a year and a half that she laid low and stayed out of trouble (as far as law enforcement could tell). But then, in 2001, she rose to the surface (or sank to the bottom) again.
7/17/01 - retail theft – adjudicated guilty
10/8/01 - stalking – dropped/abandoned
11/6/01 - violation of a protective order, domestic violence – adjudicated guilty
Star witness for the defense?
Valhall.
