Caylee Found?

I've followed the disappearance and family drama of little Caylee Anthony since the summer and been more disgusted by the behaviour of her mother and grandmother than sorry for them.

Today it seems that her poor little body has been found, about 1/3 of a mile from her grandparents' home. The killer stuffed her tiny little body into a garbage bag and tossed it into a wooded area just up the road from her family's home.

Whether she was murdered deliberately or accidently makes no difference. How could anyone throw her away like trash and then go on to party and enjoy their own life? How could anyone support and protect a criminal so callous they could take the life of a helpless baby?

Caylee's mother, if she is guilty, is beyond our comprehension. Caylee's grandparents, if their daughter is guilty, have hindered the investigation to the point where they should also have criminal charges laid against them. They are a strange and pitiful excuse for a family if they in any way are responsible for the death or cover-up.

I've tried to imagine how I would have acted if my own daughter did anything similar. I know I'd stand behind her and love her regardless but Caylee's grandparents berated the police for doing their jobs. They were obnoxious and defiant when they should have been helping the police find their little granddaughter.

Well, today she may finally have been found, after spending 6 months in a garbage bag just a few blocks from their home. How so terribly sad.
