What Happened to Casie Anthony-A Medical Intuitive Point of View?
70Let’s take a look at the circumstances that created Casie Anthony.
Casie Anthony grew up in a family that struggles with codependency. What is codependency and how can it be recognized in Casie Anthony?
Casie Anthony’s face told a story to the public long before her “Not-Guilty” verdict was announced in the court room on July 5, 2011. Behind her expressions, beneath the depth of her dark eyes and shadowed within the creases of her thin skin an insecure and fearful woman exists. The truth behind Casie Anthony is not an easy one for the public to understand. A woman, who is in fact guilty of a spontaneous killing of her own child, possesses a secret that the public and herself do not understand. The secret is this: Casie Anthony was and is a young woman who does not know how to be an authentic human being who respects nor understand the value of life. Instead of feeling, thinking or acting from her own common sense and belief system, Casie Anthony acts and operates from a source often found within a typical codependent daughter. Casie is a self manufactured as well as codependantly created (by mom) immature child who exists for one reason-to pretend.
Does the statement "codependantly created (by mom)" suggest that Cindy Anthony is a bad mom?
No, Cindy Anthony was a controlling mom-not an intentional bad mom. Infact, Cindy Anthony was a mom who "would do anything" for her daugher. However, "doing anything" for your daughter is not healthy parenting. It is poor parenting.
Did Casie Anthony commit murder because she was raised in a dysfunctional family?
No, although the Anthony family clearly presents a pattern of dysfunctional behaviors; murder is not a typical outcome. Casie was not created by her mom alone-Casie suffers with a brain disorder that has effected her behaviors since she was Caley's age. A misformation of brain arteries has forced Casie to live with a epeleptic-type syndrome since she was three years old. While this type of genetic malfomation is not a reason to commit murder, Casie's brain under the influence of an over indulgent parent did not develop as yours or my brain may have developed allowing her thoughts to be random at times and unrealistic.
Casie Anthony's brain will never function life yours or my brain. And, Casie's brain will never be free to think in an entirely sane manner. Casie will never “be” a free human being. Although she has been granted a verdict of "Not Guilty" she is not free. Growing up with a mom who loves her but loves striving for perfection was a difficult task for Casie Anthony. Casie, the little girl, was the perfect daughter untill she acted in any manner that was not the opinon or attitude of her mom, Cindy. Quickly, Casie learned to keep secrets. She learned to attempt to hide any behavior or attitude that might seem improper to Cindy Anthonys. Under the close watch of Cindy Anthony-Casie's secrets were often unburried leaving Casie feeling bad or wrong. Eventually, Casie adapted the practice of deception in the hopes of avoiding "making mom unhappy."
Fast forward to 2005 and meet Casie Anthony. She has become a woman who lies, pretends, steels and struggles to maintain an authentic life. She is unable to maintain healthy relationships or stable day-to-day tasks. However, she has honed her ability to present herself as the good daughter to a mom who wishes to love a perfect daughter. At this time Casie, so removed from her own authentic self, is incapable of living a successful life. She fails in many of her day to day endeavors.
Cindy struggles to accept an imperfect daugher. She hides the flawed behavior of her imperfect daugher choosing instead to present only the perfect Casie to the world enabling Casie to continue a life of untruths.
Fast forward to 20011,Casie Anthony, a convicted liar, may appear to care little about what others think about her. But, the contrary is true. The public watches a trial and hears about Casie Anthony, the child, teen and young woman. Casie, when a child creates a life of which her mother approves. As a teen, Casie learnes that a created life is not a real and free life. She is secretly unhappy. Pretending to be what her mom wants the world to see-is not an easy task. In the process of pretending to the world that she is a perfect daughter, Casie failes to thrive into a real/healthy/authentic personality. Instead, Casie developes a second personality (one that is far removed from the image of the perfect daughter). This second personality is more real in some ways and not at all perfect. As a young person, Casie fails to mature and recognize the consequences or importance of real life.
What Happened to Casie Anthony?
Casie Anthony in 2008, lacking the ability to form mature decisions or to present mature actions. does not fully understanding not care about the results of "three pieces of duct tape over the mouth and nose of another human being" (even her own child). In a rage of unearthed emotions combined with a critical lack of respect for human life Casie Anthony murderes her child. The murder is not premediated. There is no evidence of previouse child abuse.
Today, although Casie Anthony is a proven product of a dysfunctional family-her circumstances do not excuse the act of murder. However, a thorough investigation of the emotional and cognitive activities within Casie Anthony before, during and after the murder of her child are of understandable interest.

What Really Happened to Casie Anthony?
Casie was born into a middle class family of hard working parents. She was the second born of two children and the main focus of the family. The early Casie years proved to be easy ones for Casie as she was adored much by her mom and dad. But, as she matured toward middle school age a problem started to show itself to those who were close enough to take notice. Casie, already a child who craved attention and acceptance, began to stray from the one person who needed her most-her mom. The mother daughter relationship that existed between Casie and Cindy was balanced and happy for both while Casie was young and needy of direction, perfection and narsosistic ambitions. But, when Casie began to display indepenance, moving toward the direction of making friends, meeting boys and expressing herself-she was harshly critiqued. Cindy did all that she could to continue the perfect mother-daugher role that existed between the two. Consciously, Cindy wanted Casie to mature into a young healthy woman. But, subconsciously, Cindy grew angry toward a daugher who failed to continue to listen to her constant and critical directions. A codependent relationship entailed. Casie learned to "act the part" of being the daughter that Cindy expected. But, most often she failed.
Casie the Divided Woman
Two separate personalities formed within Casie Anthony. One, a peronality that pretended to be the daughter needing advice and shelter, presented itself in the desire to maintain peace in the home. Cindy was happiest when her advice was needed. Unaware of her perfectionistic personality, Cindy often found aspects of Casie's personality that needed correcting. Casie learned that she was certainly imperfect and unable to police her own behaviors. In Casie's mind right was what Cindy thought right and wrong what that which Cindy believed to be wrong. The ability to develop a personalized consciouse of right and wrong never develped for Cassie. The second of Casie Anthony's personality developed and existed when out-of-the-reach of Cindy. Casie, without a healthy understanding of her conscience, lived without boundaries when separated from her family.
In reality Casie Anthony is a child within the body of a woman. However, this is not a foundation that raises a mother who murders who own child. So, what really happened to Casie Anthony? I will tell you an intuitive point of view along with predictions of the next few years in Caise Anthony's life. Early in January of 2008 I had a dream. The dream spoke to me before the child, Caley Anthony, was murdered. I could see a young mom seated with three individuals near a day-time bar. The facility was a night club at night and a small bar and restaurant in the day. Casie was seated with Caley near her left side. Caley as happy and playing. Then, a male approached. He knew Casie. A fun conversation took place between the five now at the lunch restaurant. Then, suddenly Casie and Caley left the scene with a plan in mind to meet this young male later.
(It was not displayed in the courtroom where Casie spent much of her time when she was reportedly at work.) The day-time bar is one of several locations that housed Casie during these day time hours. The male I witnessed approaching Caise is an employee connected to the bar. It is in my opinion that this male knows more about the Casie Anthony case than he has told.
Casie Anthony returned to the home of Cindy and George Anthony on this day. George was home and Cindy was expected home soon. Casie, on the telephone with her new boyfriend was planning her evening when Cindy approached. A conversation takes place between Cindy and Casie. It involves George and Caley. George who is often happy and available to spend time with Caley is planning an evening with Caley. An evening with Caley is not unusual for Cindy and George. What happens next is fast and unplanned. A frustrated Casie insists that she must "take care of some things." Cindy shows anger and concern suggesting Casie spend time at home with Caley. No malice is planned as Casie picks up Caley, cancelling the arranged babysitting agreement with George.
A hysterical Casie drives toward the earlier location with Caley safely in the back seat. In the next moment...Caley's life comes to an end. It is fast but not easy. The child falls into an exhausted sleep that is both heat induced and breath deficient. A panicked Casie looks into the face of her dead child when a sudden calm washes over her body and mind. She is close in location to the lunch restaurant while making an unusual decision. She is holding Caley in her arms as if the child is a doll when she lays her peacefully down in the back seat of the car.
Caley circles back toward her home then changes directions again and drives toward the restaurant before she makes a phone call to her boyfriend. She acts as if nothing in her life has changed. The fight between herself and Cindy is her conversation before she makes plans for the evening. After backing her vehicle only slightly into a leaven Casey picks up the body of her dead child and slips her into the tall grass. It is not until three days later she visits that spot early one morning to view her daughter. The condition of the body is startling for Casey as she devises a plan to dispose of the condition that has occured. (further details are not necessary) Caley is eventually left in the woods--this truth we all know.
Just as Casie learned to pretend and lie to meet her needs; in the moment of her daughters murder she found it possible to push aside conscience just enough to believe in that moment that the actions of murder could meet her needs.In her mind murder was temporary. It was unreal. It met her needs. And, like a lie, she could worry about it tomorrow. Casie often suspended reality in the hopes of creating pleasure. But, she never suspected that she would take the life of Caley in the hope of creating oportunities for pleasure. In the last moments of Caleys life Casies thoughts were not on her daugher. Casie was not a mother. In those moments Caley was an angry daughter with a need to glue herself to her newest male friend. Caley in that moment represented the control Cindy had over Casie. The hand that was held over the mouth and nose of Caley as not a hand over a child's mouth. Instead that hand, Casie's hand, was gripped tightly over Cindy's mouth and words and controling perfectionism. When Caley's eyes closed for the last time, Casie awoke from her semi-consciouse state and saw her child, wet and hot, dead.
