I call your attention, however, that in your CA to CCr reference to Jeffrey Hopkins, where you stated the statement might be accepted, the only Jeffrey Hopkins that is a real person is the Jeffrey Hopkins who was a schoolmate of Casey's. Casey previously distinguised the real Jeffrey Hopkins (former schoolmate) from another Jeffrey Hopkins (former Universal co-worker who moved to Tallahassee or other large Florida city) with the later Jeffrey Hopkins being the one she called for help in finding Caylee. Thus far, there is no evidence that this Jeff is a living, breathing person. Val, you did a bang up job on this.

The ZFG lawsuit should be highly entertaining. Perhaps, if nothing else, Cindy will get a lesson on the legal definition of relevance.

The statement was made in the present tense "IT SMELLS LIKE". Not past tense "it smelled like". That is significant. Don’t forget Donna. The statement was made in the present tense “IT SMELLS LIKE”.
Not past tense “it smelled like”. That is significant.

I pulled my comment from another thread. I wondered if Annie's statement would also not come in because it was hearsay. It would appear that she is the only one that Casey mentioned any danger to. I'm sure Maura will correct me, if I left out any other corroborating statements: » WSH said: { Mar 12, 2010 - 11:03:51 } [Unread Comment] » Mrs C Hop said: { Mar 12, 2010 – 11:03:28 }n my opinion the defense is going to say yeah she SAID that because she was just sooooo scared of the Actual kidnapper (whoever it will be by that time)” Hey Chop But then that flies against other things that they have thrown out: Cindy “was calm” when dialing 911, she only said the car “smells” like a dead body because police don’t routinely come out for kidnapped children ( insert sarcasm here). IF she wanted to get them there sooner, or if THERE WAS immediate danger, wouldn’t that have been something Casey would express at that point? Mom, don’t call, our lives are in danger! When the operator asks “why are you calling now, ….?” Casey did not say because I thought that would put myself, my family and/or my daughter in danger. How can you reconcile all of that later? And how do you bring up that she was scared at all if she doesn’t take the stand, other than in opening and closing statements? There was only one person that Casey told she was being watched and that was Annie. But is Annie’s statement hearsay if Casey doesn’t take the stand? Silver,
