Casey Anthony Murder Trial Day 21: Surprise Defense Witness Vasco Thompson Looks to be a Legal Defense Sham … What’s in a Number?

When will the Baez and his defense ever learn what the term “legal ethics” mean? Hell, when will Baez and his band of merry liars lawyers do their investigative home work before they try and ruin people’s lives? It appears that Baez and his ilk will do anything to give the impression of reasonable doubt, including jumping to conclusions without any due diligence.

Add Vasco Thompson to the long list of people damaged by the exploits of alleged murderer Casey Anthony. JOSE BAEZ DREAM TEAM? Hardly. At this point the junior varsity mock court from any nearby law school might be better served.

This week  Jose Baez and the Casey Anthony defense team added Vasco Thompson to the defense witness list. It was touted as a “BOMBSHELL” tonight surprise witness and the aha moment. Thompson was a convicted kidnapper who was said to have made four phone calls with George Anthony, the tot mom Casey Anthony’s dad.Or so the defense says. Once again the defense and Baez appear to be playing games again and trying to smear the name of George Anthony. Or is Baez and his defense team really that ignorant?

George Anthony angrily issued a statement through his attorney earlier this week denying those claims. Today, Vasco Thompson stood outside the Orange County courthouse and also denied that he’d ever met George Anthony.

“I have no idea who George Anthony is,” Thompson said. “The phone number they got, I didn’t have that number until February of 2009. I don’t know why they dragged me into all this mess.”

Baez never said what Thompson’s connection to the case may have been, but he has accused George Anthony of helping to dispose of Caylee’s body after she accidentally drowned in the family pool.

George Anthony denied knowing Vasco Thompson and it got even better today as Thompson held a presser with his attorney that left egg on the face of Jose Baez and his legal team.Vasco Thompson said at his presser today that he had no idea who George Anthony was and never had the telephone number in question until February 2009. Just one problem, Caylee Anthony went missing in 2008 and her remains were found in December 2008. Are you serious? The Baez Legal Beagles couldn’t do their home work and see who actually had the telephone number at the time of the calls? Really?

“I have no idea who George Anthony is,” Thompson said. “The phone number they got, I didn’t have that number until February of 2009. I don’t know why they dragged me into all this mess.”

I am guessing that the barrister Jose Baez will no longer be calling Vasco Thompson to the witness stand as he will be too busy wiping the egg off his face. But Jose, Don’t Lose that Number … you never know when you might want to call some one else and ruin their life all in the name of defending a pathological liar and client in Casey Anthony who would go 31 days before ever notifying any one that her child was missing when in fact, Caylee was already dead.
