Casey's claims prior to the trial, the testimonials of her mother Cindy and father George regarding the death of Caylee and her defense argument during the trial have contradicted each other.

Casey's and defense's claims collated:
- Before the trial began Casey had said a baby sitter kidnapped Caylee, who was missing for a month before the police were alerted by Casey's mother.
According to the police, Casey said she dropped her daughter off with a baby sitter named Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez on June 9, and never saw both again.
On June 16, 2008, Casey told her her mother that she had to go to a business conference in Tampa. "Zanny the nanny was going along so her mother shouldn't worry. In addition, Casey's friend Juliette and her daughter Annabelle were going too, so the children could enjoy Busch Gardens during the workday," Cindy had reportedly said.
