Casey Anthony blows immunity chance

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Florida authorities had given Casey Anthony until 9:00 a.m. this morning to cooperate with them regarding the disappearance of her daughter Caylee in exchange for limited immunity, but Casey declined the offer.

Padilla said the focus is still on finding Caylee — alive or dead — a discovery that would significantly aid in the investigation.

“Obviously that would clear up a lot of questions that we have,” Padilla told FOXNews.com.

He declined to comment on which of the various theories, if any, had become the most prominent in the investigation. Detectives have been trying to determine whether Caylee died accidentally, was killed or was kidnapped, as her mother has claimed. Police have expressed serious doubts about the abduction story.

“The key is with the mother, with Casey,” Padilla said. “If there is a cover-up, it would be her — if there is. Right now she continues to not provide any information that is helpful to us.”

Ladies, looks like a bottlefeeding sit in is in order. Who’s with us? No one? :crickets chirping:

Samantha Corbridge, 24, was thrown out of the Jobcentre Plus office after being told she was breaking the ‘food and drink policy’ by giving her daughter a bottle of milk.

The mother-of-two was left feeding Robyn, two, on the steps of the office in Hove, East Sussex.

She had gone to the office to search for information on an apprenticeship in childcare, but as she searched through files her daughter began to cry.

Miss Corbridge said: “I could tell it was frustrating some of the workers so I decided to give her a bottle because she was hungry.

“The next thing I knew a woman was marching over to me saying I was breaching their food and drink policy and that no one is allowed to drink inside the Jobcentre.”

Bristol Palin’s boyfriend a “redneck”

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

The liberal blogosphere has even more fuel for the fire in their attempts to paint the Palin family as a bunch of white trash.

[Levi] Johnston, 17, is due to marry Mrs Palin’s eldest daughter Bristol, 17, who is five months pregnant with their child.

The couple have been dating for a year, according to officials in their home town, and Bristol regularly cheers on her man at games, where he scored 24 goals in 24 games last season.

On his MySpace page, since removed from the Internet, Johnston describes himself as a “f****n’ redneck” and reveals: “I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing,” before warning that of anyone annoys him, he will “kick ass”.
