Casey Anthony Drama Continues Along with Tribute Song to Caylee Marie
Trial by Mob or Jury?
We have not heard the last of Casey Anthony, the young mother found innocent in the murder of her 2 year old daughter Caylee Marie, and probably never will. Since the verdict was read on July 5th new information continues to be released.
Casey will be free to go on July 17th. Where she will go remains a mystery. Public outrage is a strong factor in her personal safety. Like OJ Simpson she will be a social pariah forever.
Pinellas county from where the jurors were chosen. is waging a "jurists not welcome" campaign. Judge Belvin Perry has not yet released the names and addresses of the jury, citing a necessary cooling off period.
"Zanny the Nanny" is suing Casey Anthony for "defamation of character" in civil court. Zenaida Gonzalez has hired well known Florida attorney, John Morgan. Papers were served to Anthony this week and a pretrial hearing is scheduled for January 10, 2012. Former Florida governor Charlie Crist is a member of the firm.
Four of the young men, possible fathers of Caylee Marie died in auto accidents during 2007.
Casey refused to meet with her mother this week. She has not spoken to her mother for two years.
During a severe thunderstorm lightning struck a tree on the site where Caylee Marie's remains were found causing the tree to burst into flame.
Florida lawmakers in response to the case have introduced "Caylee's Law " making it a felony for a parent or caretaker not to report a child missing or dead within a certain time frame. Presently not reporting a child missing is a misdemeanor.
Rep. Scott Plakon, co-sponsor of the law said, "For Casey Anthony to be able to got out and party for 31 days, and mislead law enforcement, is wrong." This bill says it should be illegal to do such a thing.
A national movement to pass Caylee's Law has also sprung up. Online petitions are available including Facebook. Unfortunately the law will not affect Casey Anthony.
Rascal Flatts singer Gary LeVox along with Cledus T. Judd and Jimmy Yeary have co-written a tribute song to Caylee Marie "She's Going Places." The song ponders all the things the little girl should be doing and never got the chance to do. The song goes on imagining Caylee Marie in a better place. Listen to it and your heart will break.

Post a CommentI think your article answered the question asked by jobythe bay. Caylee's plight may result in a law that helps other children in the future. Perhaps that is why she received so much press. Perhaps it was meant to stir American hearts and souls in a way nothing else has in the recent past. I for one am glad that her story doesn't die. It's about time that we say "enough, our judicial system doesn't work anymore. Let's fix it!" Otherwise, there will be many more Caylees that die and even more Caseys that go free.
I just don't get the whole things. Why this little girl is getting so much press when so many others die.
excellent article. I read your note on Carol's article, so just came over without looking for the notice
wow, I didn't know some of this. Good coverage, sad story
I wrote an article today too and the notification did not go out yet
she is certainly a strange woman no matter how you tell it. Her behaviour is more than bizarre it is insane
Oh my, Memmay. Yes, this law may not help Caylee, but if it can help others, it would be worth it.
