Casey Anthony’s Emotions

Many of you have requested that I review a video of Casey Anthony, that is void of audio, showing Casey after her mom Cindy testified in her trial.

Starting at 0:16-0:20, we see Casey display anger as she lowers her eyebrows and points her finger as she is talking.  Her emotions then morph into sadness.  Look at how her eyebrows knit together and raise up in the middle. If you look, you will also see stress lines in Casey’s forehead.  Casey then shakes her head, as if in disbelief, as she appears to potentially blow her nose from the tears she is shedding.

Casey starts talking at around 0:31 and says, “She….(blah, blah, blah)” as she then points her finger.  You can clearly tell she is frustrated by her mom or whoever she is talking about.  I suspect they did not do what Casey wanted. Casey also displays oblique eyebrows again, which I interpret as genuine sadness.

The camera zooms in and we see Casey shake her head no. I suspect she is in disbelief at something her mom said on the stand that she does not agree with, and she can’t believe it. At 0:40, Casey displays anger again and we see she is clearly frustrated as she speaks.  At one point, she says the word “Nothing”…Maybe Casey was hoping her mom would say something about something and she didn’t?  It’s hard to say, but Casey is clearly upset and angry. Her emotions are genuine.

At around 1:34, Casey spouts off to the woman she is talking to. We see her confident and arrogant in whatever she is saying, which is interesting, considering all that Casey is going through. Then around 1:42, Casey seems to be saying something like “It just hurts so bad.”  What is interesting is she is likely reflecting on something her mother did or didn’t say, or did or didn’t do — but she never get this emotion when it comes to Caylee. We’ve never heard her say once, “It just hurts so bad” when speaking of Caylee.  It’s eye-opening, without a doubt.

At 1:50, we see Casey talk again in anger.  I suspect she says, “She…(blah, blah, blah)”

I think one can strongly conclude that Casey is not happy with what her mother did during her testimony.  Whatever happened clearly makes Casey angry, upset, and in a state of disbelief.  At the end of the video, whatever the woman says to Casey, seems to calm her down.
