Growing Bolder Community

That smile in my profile picture just felt phony today, so I changed it. After a long day of harrowing visits to multiple vet clinics, we had to say goodbye to Casey shortly after midnight. He had a long, happy life, but we were still not prepared to let go. Even with 3 other dogs, the house feels kind of empty. We bought the house 4 years ago, with his specific needs factoring into the...

Two quotes come to mind as I open this post. One comes from George Harrison . You can listen as you read. Watch out now, take careBeware of soft shoe shufflersDancing down the sidewalksAs each unconscious suffererWanders aimlessly After yesterday's motion, do Jose Baez and Cheney Mason think they will be dancing down the sidewalks, as Casey...

It is a well established fact that in America, Casey Marie Anthony is not guilty of murdering her daughter - not yet, anyway, and no matter what we think, it will take a jury of her peers to make that determination. Until then, she is presumed innocent and all we can do is speculate. No matter what the outcome next year, I truly believe her name will be synonymous with Lizzie Borden's. Lizzie, of...

The following is a list of what supposed psychics had to say to Crimeline, OCSO and ACISS about Caylee Anthony's whereabouts within days and weeks of her publicized disappearance in mid-July, 2008. This list is only for the last two weeks in July. Of course, she was last seen a month earlier, but at the time of these reports, she was merely listed as a missing child. No one actually knew she was...

Three of Casey's motions were ruled on yesterday by Chief Judge Belvin Perry, Jr. and those decisions will not help her defense team one bit. At the June 1 hearing, Casey Anthony's attorneys argued to keep her jail visitation logs secret because they didn't want the State to know who and what experts were consulting with her at the county facility. It sounded like a reasonable request, but the...

This is an opinion piece based on my observations in and out of the courtroom. "You're really not going to notice any difference in the way the team operates." - Cheney Mason I never planned on writing anything about my interaction with Andrea Lyon because it wasn't all that relevant. Yesterday, that changed when she stepped out from the Casey limelight and the shadow of Cheney Mason. To...

A young friend associated with the Casey Anthony case has been out of commission for some time now. That's because she had been "with child" and wanted a lengthy break, which is still ongoing. She lives in Mississippi with her husband and two children. Check that... three children now. The closest I ever got to her was in June of 2009, when my lifelong best friend and I took a scenic road trip...
