Spokesman: Casey Anthony Trying To Help Find Missing Daughter
Woman's Parents Upset About Media Coverage
However, Casey Anthony's parents are upset with continued media coverage focusing on the woman's possible role in 3-year-old Caylee Anthony's disappearance. It has been a circus outside the Anthonys' Orlando home since Casey Anthony was able to post a $500,000 bond and get out of jail Thursday. Cindy Anthony, Caylee's grandmother, said the frenzy is affecting the whole family. Casey Anthony, 22, is confined with an electronic ankle device to the home. She faces charges of child neglect, making false statements and obstructing the investigation to find the girl. Caylee has been missing since mid-June.
Mom: I'm Innocent
Casey Anthony said, "I'm innocent" while walking out of jail on Thursday and encountering a frenzied mob of reporters and photographers in a case that continues to grab national attention.Casey Anthony left the Orange County Jail after celebrity bounty hunter Leonard Padilla helped post her $500,000 bond.Casey Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, said she wanted to walk out of the jail with her head held high before being rushed by the media."Just as we were walking out, I covered her up and she stopped me, and you may notice we stopped for a brief moment and she told me in my ear that she wanted me to take the umbrella down and she said to me, 'Jose, I'm innocent and I'm going to walk out of this place with my head held high.' We were about to do that and you all bombarded us. You could have had all of the photographs you wanted," Baez said.Baez then threatened to possibly cut off some media channels."I discussed certain things with the family and what we've decided that if there are any channels or media outlets that continue that type behavior or violate their privacy by coming on their property -- basically crossing the line -- and I think you are all adults and you know what crossing the line is and what aggressive reporting is and things like that is," Baez said. "That is not going to happen any more. If you do, we will cut off that channel from any interviews and any statements and that channel can get their news from another channel. If you want to be on that blacklist or whatever you want to call it, continue that type of behavior. We are just not going to put up with it. We don't have to put up with that."Baez said someone tried to get underneath an umbrella shielding Anthony."I didn't know if they were going attack us or what they were going to do," Baez said. "I don't know any of you from anywhere. No one should be invading anyone's private space that way. I ask you and plead with you all to please respect my privacy and my client's privacy and her family's."Baez said he was disgusted by the crowd's actions."No one has the right to go pushing against me or her just to get a sound bite," Baez said. "To be quite honest with you, I was really disgusted by the whole thing."Anthony: 'I Want Hot Shower'
Padilla said he heard one request from Casey Anthony after leaving jail and reuniting with her family."I want to get a hot shower (she said)," according to Padilla. "She went into her mother's arm. Her mother said, 'Hey,' and (Casey) said, 'I want to get a shower.'"Padilla said the family gathering was emotional and they were hugging.Before her release, there was speculation that Casey Anthony would not leave jail."I never had a doubt (she would be freed)," Padilla said. "I didn't come 3,000 miles to have some local bullies bluff us. She is out."Casey Anthony was fitted with an ankle bracelet and will be placed on home confinement at her parents' house.Casey Anthony has been charged with child neglect, filing a false statement and obstructing an investigation.Earlier, threats against the family if Casey Anthony leaves jail prompted 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.Watch Local 6 News for more on this story.
