'Actually' In Statement Analysis: Caylee's Time of Death

    by Peter Hyatt






    After complaining that the State did not highlight exactly which online activity Casey engaged in on June 16th, 2008, the day Caylee was murdered, Baez said that he did not say what time of day Caylee died, therefore, the online entries, texts, or messages were not relevant.


    Jose Baez said that he never told the court when Caylee died.


    Is this true?

    The word "actually" is used to compare two or more thoughts.  Its use is not indicative of deception within itself.  The topic at hand here is its overuse. 


                                            The overuse of the word "actually."


    We have noted that Casey Anthony used this word in abundance, and now, since the trial has begun, we have seen the same thing in the speech of Jose Baez.  Statement Analysis has shown that Jose Baez was deceptive, knowingly deceptive, when he claimed that Caylee Anthony drowned in the family pool on June 16th, 2008.
    (see analysis)


    Here is an example from Father's Day surf and turf dinner:

    "Did you like the steak?"

     "No, I actually liked the lobster."

    This highlights how the word "actually" is used to compare two things; here, steak and lobster.


    Question:  Why does a deceptive person use the word "actually" so often?

    Answer:  The  deceptive person (one is routinely deceiving others) uses the word "actually", chosen quickly, because the subject is comparing two things:  what the subject is saying compared with the truth.  It is not only an indicator that the subject is a consistently deceptive person, but that the subject knows he is being deceptive.

    Lying causes internal stress.  One of the reasons for the stress, even for sociopaths, is that they must remember the prior story.  Truth comes from experiential memory and does not tax the brain the way fabrication does.  Truth that is experienced has many small factors that assist the memory, including sensory details.  We often recall the smell, for example, of something and later can recall it easily.


    When Jose Baez said in court on Tuesday, June 21, 2008, that he never told the court the time of day in which Caylee drowned, it highlights how difficult lying can be:


    In his opening statement, he said:

    On June 16, 2008, Casey was home with Caylee and so was her father. Early morning hours, the exact time is not known, it could have been early afternoon… early morning… actually, it was the early morning hours. George Anthony approached Casey and started yelling at her, “Where’s Caylee? Where’s Caylee?”.


    This contradicts what he told the court today, however, let's look at the statement itself.  Is it true?

    On June 16, 2008, Casey was home with Caylee and so was her father. Early morning hours, the exact time is not known, it could have been early afternoon… early morning… actually, it was the early morning hours. George Anthony approached Casey and started yelling at her, “Where’s Caylee? Where’s Caylee?”.

    On June 16, 2008, Casey was home with Caylee and so was her father.


    The first sentence shows plainly that on June 16th, Casey was home with Caylee.  This is something that is plainly spoken.  Regarding George, Baez adds it as an after fact.  Note the distance between "father" and "Casey"   Jose Baez' purpose is to blame George. 


     Early morning hours, the exact time is not known, it could have been early afternoon… 


    "Early morning hours" is a broken sentence which means that he has stopped himself and is withholding information.   The next sentence, however, is truthful:


    "the exact time is not known" which, when it comes to "exact", it is likely truthful.  He then returns to the pattern of deception:   suggestion:


    "it could have been early afternoon"


    Jose Baez uses vagueness and suggestion in order to deceive.  Some of his employment comes at the expense of the English language, but it always is done to distract the hearer from truth. 


    early morning… actually, 


    By stating different time frames, Baez is used to attempting to keep things vague and non-commital; a practice of deception. 


    The word actually now enters his vocabulary as he then concedes the time of death, using the word "actually" to compare two things:


    1.  his vagueness and attempt to confuse with deception
    2.  the truth


    He then tells the truth: 


    it was the early morning hours. 


    From his intimate knowledge of the facts, it is likely that Caylee died before noon on June 16th, 2008.  When George saw Casey and Caylee leave that morning, Caylee was being taken off to her execution. 


    George Anthony approached Casey and started yelling at her, “Where’s Caylee? Where’s Caylee?

    Note that when someone mentions something that started, we should see the conclusion.  Since this happened three years earlier, a reliable statement would have been something like, "George yelled..." but since this is a fabrication, it is not in the past tense.  As it is stated, it is to be deemed by Statement Analysis as unreliable.


    Because we know that the opening statement was consistently deceptive, we may know that this statement is  not reliable.
