Bondsman: Missing Girl's Mother Could Be Bailed Out On Tuesday
Concerns Arise Over Home Confinement
Tony Padilla had said that Casey Anthony would "probably not" be released from the Orange County Jail on Monday because of concerns about proposed home confinement conditions. Padilla and his uncle flew on Sunday from California to Florida to try and post Anthony's bond. Anthony is being held on $500,000 bond on charges of child neglect, making false statements and obstructing an investigation. Police said Anthony lied to them and didn't report her daughter, Caylee, missing for more than a month. Caylee Anthony, who turned 3 on Aug. 9, was reported missing in mid-July.
Bloggers Search Woods
A group of Internet bloggers following the case have united and searched wooded areas of Central Florida for the child in a mystery that continues to grab the nation's attention.The group of bloggers scoured several wooded areas of Blanchard Park over the weekend for clues into the disappearance of missing Caylee.The group found what they believe may be items of interest; two colorful book bags and some clothing hidden in the woods about a mile from a location where a car belonging to the Casey Anthony (Caylee's mother) was abandoned."Everyone's heart dropped," searcher Wyatt Locke said. "This is the first time in our search that everyone unanimously was like, 'Oh my gosh, this might be something.'"A yellow sandal, a size-five pair of pants and a small tank top were also found in the woods.Sheriff's deputies took possession of the found items and were trying to determine if they could be linked to the case.The group plans to continue investigating the case."It is heart-wrenching," Locke said. "This is a little girl who has disappeared and been gone for two months. We want to help and want to find closure for this case. We are looking for anything. Anything and all that might give any type of information as to the whereabouts or what happened to her."Casey To Be Bailed Out?
Meanwhile, Casey Anthony could be bailed out of jail.Leonard Padilla and his nephew, Tony Padilla, said on Friday they will arrive in Orlando on Sunday and later post a $500,000 bond for Casey Anthony.Padilla, who hosts a TV show called "Bounty Hunters" on National Geographic, told Local 6 News that he has been talking to Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, about bailing his client out of jail.Leonard Padilla said he is bailing Casey Anthony out to find out the truth about Caylee."We eat in the same room, sleep in the same room. After a while, these people feel better than sitting in a cell looking at the walls, and they will discuss things that they won't discuss with parents or anybody else," Leonard Padilla said.Earlier, threats against the family if Casey Anthony leaves jail prompted her mother, Cindy Anthony, to consider the use of a safe house."Right here, I don't think is the ideal place for her not because we don't want her in the house and everything, but we may have to hole her up somewhere in a safe house," Cindy Anthony said.The Padillas announced the move in an e-mail to Local 6 News.Also over the weekend, Casey Anthony canceled a visit to see her brother, Lee, at the jail.Family Appoints Spokesman
