MESSAGE BOARD: Talk About Anthony Case
The situation is getting even more volatile at the Anthony house, because more protesters have been showing up demanding Casey go back to jail.Friday was the 45th day since Caylee Anthony was reported missing. The bounty hunter and Casey's attorney worked out a deal just before noon Friday that means Casey will not go back to jail.A group is planning to search Saturday for Caylee's body near Orlando International Airport and more protesters are expected to come to Casey's house Friday night.George Anthony hit the roof Friday afternoon when two protesters set up camp right in front of his home, throwing chairs and yelling. George's pastor had to hold him back as he unloaded on two men who set up chairs and an umbrella in his card. They came to the house hoping to see Casey hauled back to jail."We're just here to watch her be arrested,"As evidence mounts that Caylee is dead, the Anthony family seems to have no end of conspiracy theories. They blame everyone but Casey."Maybe someone put a body in the car after it was towed to the tow yard. Why don't you talk to them about their security?" Cindy Anthony said Thursday evening.The building drama is even making drama-king Leonard Padilla nervous for the media."I don't want you guys sitting there talking to Cindy when she's got a hammer in her hand," Padilla said Friday morning.Padilla also fears for Casey as she travels back an forth from her attorney's office."I think somebody can take a shot at her," Padilla said.There's also word from the Internet that more protesters are coming to the Anthony house Friday night. Internet chatter is rampant that Casey will have a large crowd that will insist she be taken back to jail.
CASEY ANTHONY AVOIDS RETURN TO JAILThe big development Friday was the flip-flop by Casey's bounty hunter. The man who help spring Casey from jail said as recently as Friday morning that he was going to put her back behind bars, supposedly, for her own safety because she was getting death threats. But late Friday, he said she'll stay free.California bounty hunter Leonard Padilla said he has serious concerns about Casey Anthony's safety, partly because of the protests that organizers are planning at the Anthony's house and because of the things that drivers are yelling toward her lawyer's office as they pass by. An Eyewitness News crew on Thursday heard two people scream, "Hang her!"Casey Anthony raced passed an Eyewitness News camera again Friday wearing big sunglasses. Her attorney told Eyewitness News she's just following his instructions. He said Casey does not want to go back to jail, so he worked out a deal to take more responsibility for security.Otherwise, Padilla was planning to back out of the bond deal, cuff Casey and take her back to jail Saturday morning.The concerns come from protests that are planned for the holiday weekend that are advertised on Craigslist. People are offering rides to strangers from Kissimmee."After discussing what we could do to address those concerns, Mr. Padilla has agreed not to surrender the bond," Baez said just before noon on Friday.Padilla told Eyewitness News earlier that Baez changed the rules after Padilla agreed to pay the $50,000 to spring Casey by forbidding Padilla, or the security people he's paying, from talking to Casey about the case."She kept saying, 'Get me out of jail. Get me out of jail. I want to look for my baby.' She hasn't made one statement regarding, 'Let's go look for the baby,'" Padilla said.
STATE ATTORNEY COMMENTS ON DNA EVIDENCEFor the first time, Orange County State Attorney Lawson Lamar weighed in on the evidence in the case Friday. Eyewitness News broke the story Wednesday that DNA evidence reveals Caylee Anthony's body was in her mother's trunk and it shows decomposition that Caylee was dead."Law enforcement prosecution throughout all of this has been hoping and praying we find this child a live. That hope has been somewhat diminished by recent forensics," Lamar said.Despite the evidence, the offer of limited immunity to Casey Anthony remains. An email from prosecutors confirms Anthony's lawyer, Jose Baez, asked for it several weeks ago. The deal means that anything the 22-year-old mother says to investigators would not be used against her in court, only the evidence found."The initial thought of offering that level of immunity was that we might gain some information that would lead us to the missing child," Lamar said.So far, Casey Anthony has not said a word. The State Attorney's Office is waiting for the sheriff's office to send over what's called a "fact package," which includes all the forensic evidence.Lamar told Eyewitness News he isn't rushing the sheriff's office for that packet. The offer of limited immunity will expire on Tuesday.
CINDY ANTHONY LASHES OUT AT THE MEDIACindy Anthony said she doesn't believe her daughter Casey was responsible for Caylee's death. In fact, she said she doesn't even believe Caylee is dead.She posted no trespassing signs in front of her home to keep the media away Thursday evening, but then continued to talk to reporters (Images | Raw Video). Cindy said she's sick of the media hanging around her home and reporting on the investigation into what happened to her granddaughter Caylee."All you guys want to (explicit) do is out my daughter in jail. Not one of you is doing a damn thing to find my granddaughter!" Cindy screamed.She hammered no trespassing signs in her front yard to make it clear that she doesn't want anyone at her home except Tim Miller of Texas EquuSearch Mounted Search and Recovery (read about EquuSearch)."We are not asking Casey one question about anything, you know that's the detective's job. She does have an attorney and our job is to be searchers," Miller said.His organization has found hundreds of missing people and most of them were alive."I want him to do a search around here to satisfy all of you leaches, parasites and all of you maggots," Cindy Anthony said Thursday evening.Cindy's rant came the day after sources informed Eyewitness News that new DNA evidence shows hair and a stain found inside of Casey Anthony's car belongs to her daughter Caylee. The results showed signs of decomposition, which proves Caylee is dead. Cindy Anthony, though. remains optimistic.
