Cindy Anthony - Obstruction of Justice??

As Sir Walter Scott said “Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive”. It seems that the web of lies is getting more tangled as time goes by.
When law enforcement asked Cindy Anthony for Caylee's hairbrush for DNA analysis, Cindy gave them Casey's hairbrush instead. In an email from
Larry Garrison (ex-Anthony family spokesperson) to Cindy Anthony he asked her why she gave the authorities Casey's hairbrush instead of Caylee's. In her Friday, November 20, 2008 reply to his email she wrote, "I never lied I just never went to my bathroom to get the hairbrush that I used only for Caylee".
How can that not be a lie? A lie is a deception. It doesn't have to be untrue words coming out of someone's mouth. One of dictionary.com's definitions of a lie is "something intended or serving to convey a false impression; imposture"
As I see it, Casey's hairbrush is an imposture!! And what about Cindy laundering the pants found in the Pontiac that Casey drove? She washed those "because of the odor". Makes one wonder if anything else stain-wise was on those pants. She also laundered Casey's clothes that were left at Casey's boyfriend's (Tony Lazarro) apartment. Why did she do that? Did those smell, too? I think not. So now that she has purposely handed over the wrong hairbrush, it makes people suspect of everything else that she has done. If nothing else her credibility is in the dumper now.
So, will Cindy be held liable for her deceptions? Will she be charged with some kind of evidence tampering, withholding, or obstruction of justice? Maybe law enforcement will have mercy on her. Time will only tell.
One last note: I do feel bad for George and Cindy Anthony. They didn't ask for any of this. Whether or not they're good parents is beside the point. There are lots of terrible parents out there and their children grow up to be better people than Casey. Casey is an adult and when you become an adult you have to solve your own problems no matter who in the past may have caused them.
