Orlando Sentinel reporting
9:37 a.m. Outside the courthouse, George Anthony’s attorney Mark NeJame told reporters that his client is there to testify against Casey Anthony for consideration of homicide charges “concerning his beloved granddaughter Caylee Marie.” “George is getting ready to do the unimaginable,” NeJame said. Then George Anthony said that he loves his daughter, wife, and son and asked for prayers for Caylee and his family. “This is going to be very hard for me to do,” George Anthony said.

www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/orange/orl-casey-anthony101408,0,6776908.story I also saw the Orlando Sentinel coverage. I think it's good as well. George's remarks make me think that he has no intention of any spinning like that wife of his. He's going to lay it out the same way he did to the detectives, or at least I hope so. Maybe there's the part of him that has been waiting for years to stand up to those two. Sadly, this has to be the circumstance it took.

I think he knows it will all come out anyway. If he lays it all out, I think it will take a lot of the pressure off the family and they can get on with their lives. I think he knows he's defeated, and he's just trying to stop the bleeding. Time to step up and do the right thing. Maybe he will be met with sympathy now instead of the public lynch mob. Maybe he is asking them to keep the paternity question out of the trial.

Does anyone think he will make a public apology? I think we deserve one. Might make him look more humane.

10:55 a.m.: By Bob Kealing, WESH 2 News
After more than an hour with an Orange County grand jury, George Anthony has completed his testimony. Anthony appeared somber as he waited for the elevator to take hm back downstairs. All the while he held a plastic folder with his missing granddaughter Caylee Marie Anthony’s picture on the front.
“Mr. Anthony answered all the questions he was asked,” said his attorney Mark NeJame, “Beyond that we’re really not allowed to comment.”
We’ve also seen the canine handler whose cadaver dog “hit” on the back of Casey Anthony’s car and the Anthony’s back yard.
One court deputy said she believes there are about a half dozen witnesses to testify. It’s also believed that this is the only case the grand jury is hearing.

False alarm, they are running a loop. Picture is moving, but I caught transition from last frame to first frame in loop. Went from solid white sky to beautiful blue with a few puffy clouds in 5 sec. I don't think so.

from WESH.com blog 11:59 a.m.: The prosecution team just left as the grand jury is taking a break for lunch. Testimony is expected to resume at 1 p.m. So far this morning, the witnesses we have seen come in and out of the grand jury room are George Anthony, an FBI agent and a deputy whose cadaver dog hit on the trunk of Casey Anthony’s car. Orange County Sheriff’s Detective Yuri Melich also is here, and expected to testify later. Other than him, it is not known who will be called before the grand jury or when exactly it will end today.
Please check back for more updates after lunch — and post comments with questions that we answer.

Baez will make statement at 1:30 p.m. with Casey 12:58 p.m. Casey Anthony's attorney Jose Baez announced a few moments ago that he will hold a short press conference with his client outside of his Kissimmee office.
Oh, boy....will it be with or without the stolen wanna-be celeb-u-whore shades??
My money is more on the fact that she is going to try to squeeze tears out...even if Baez has to threaten to withhold the peen if she doesn't..... :boohoo: :boohoo: :boohoo:

2:33 p.m. By Bob Kealing, WESH 2 News A court deputy tells me the last witness to testify before the grand jury is now on the stand. He is Orange County detective Yuri Melich who has been on the case since Caylee Anthony was reported missing three months ago this week. We’ve counted around a half dozen witnesses presented by the state, they include: George Anthony, Orange County’s cadaver dog handler, and an FBI agent also closely involved with the case, Nick Savage. Once the testimony is complete and all the evidence presented, the grand jury of ten women and nine men will deliberate. Once they have reached a decision, the media will be invited in to the courtroom to hear from State Attorney Lawson Lamar whether the grand jury has decided on a “true bill” or “no true bill” decision; To indict or not to indict. If Casey is in custody, her name will be revealed at that time; if not, we’ll hear the charges. www.wesh.com/breakingnews/index.html

Testimony ended at 3. The media will be invited in when they have reach a decision. I think I hear the sirens now! I'm sure they have a sheriff waiting in Jose's parking lot waiting on the call.
