Anthony Case Gets Weird

The Casey/Caylee Anthony case just got weird. Okay, so it's been weird all along. But now it's weirder. Forensic computer experts recently discovered that someone had been using the computer that Casey Anthony used to search chloroform. You know: the stuff you soak a rag with and then hold over someone's nose causing that person to lose consciousness? It isn't used as an anesthetic any more. So to what purpose, we might be given to wonder, did Casey Anthony want chloroform? The only purpose would almost have to be criminal. Investigators wondered about the chloroform. It lead them back to Casey Anthony's car, where they found significant traces of chloroform.

The investigation into two-year-old Caylee Anthony's disappearance is now acknowledged to be a search for a body. Nobody's even pretending to think Caylee is still alive except for Cindy Anthony, who insists that Casey is "being railroaded." While I don't believe that Cindy Anthony participated in the crime, she is a complete idiot who will do Casey's bidding forever. An enabler who raised a psychopath and a criminal. Way to go, Cindy.

Now, the really odd part of this: you don't need chloroform to do anything to a little kid. The idea of using chloroform would be to subdue someone, and a two-year-old is easy to subdue anyway. That leaves a chilling question: who was her intended victim? Parents spring to mind. Why take just their credit cards and checks when you could have it all? Perhaps she was ready to graduate from small time crime to the big stuff.

Did Caylee get into the chloroform on accident? The reason that it's no longer used is that an overdose is easy to accomplish. Too easy.
