Casey Anthony's murder trial

[Grace]

From the NY Post -

Casey Anthony is getting a make-over.

Acquitted daughter-murder suspect Casey Anthony is reportedly considering using a number of disguises and living under a new name once she is released from the slammer on Sunday.

A source close to the Anthony's legal team said she was considering using various disguises to alter her appearance, The Chicago Sun-Times reported today.

The source added that Anthony, 25, dismissed a plan to get plastic surgery, but will live in a secret location under a new name.

“There even have been discussions about cosmetic surgery, but Casey has rejected that out of hand,” the insider told the newspaper.

The source added that Anthony "really does not completely understand the depth of hatred out there. She’s fully aware of the various death threats, of course, but she thinks that’s isolated to relatively few nutcases."

Once she is released, Anthony will be taken to the secret location where she will live under a pseudonym “almost as if she was living in a witness protection-like program” in an effort to avoid being harassed, the newspaper reported.

Anthony was sentenced last week to one year and fined $1,000 for each of the four times she lied to authorities -- the stiffest punishment the judge could mete out after Anthony was cleared of murdering 2-year-old Caylee in 2008.

The verdict shocked the country, with many blaming jurors for not doling out justice in the case. Jurors have said the prosecution did not present enough evidence pointing to Anthony as the murderer.

The party-loving defendant, who showed up to her sentencing with a new, jailhouse-glamorous look -- a tight fitting sweater, styled locks and lipstick -- had expected to walk free, but was stunned to find out she'll be held in the slammer in Orlando for about another week.

Anthony has served 1,043 days while she awaited trial. With good behavior and time served, Anthony will be released this weekend.

Wonder what she will do about the subpoena she got from zannie Gonzales' lawyer. She is supposed to appear with him on the 19th and give a deposition about all the lies she told about Zannie..

The only way she will ever survive is with a complete new identity - including altering her appearance. I believe she'll find that out all too soon.

But the death threats against her, her family, and jurors, I find absolutely ludicrous. It's over - judgement has been passed and served - now let everyone get on with their lives as best that they can. Nobody has to agree with the verdict, but what's done, is done, so why not just let it go? Perpetuating this circus is serving no purpose but to fan the flame of hatred, and will change nothing.

And to Nancy Grace and some of her other talking heads - shut the h&ll up and move on. Enough is enough.......

I'm really upset most about the threats against the jurors. They came to the correct verdict based on the evidence presented, and nothing else. They gave up 8 weeks of their life, including two holidays. Leave them alone already.

There was a story in our local paper saying Juror #12 was afraid to go back to work, called her boss & retired over the phone then packed and left. She told her husband she would rather go to jail than ever serve on a jury again.

Last night on the news there was a story about a man in Philadelphia named Casey Anthony. Since the verdict people have been calling him and leaving horrible messages saying he's a baby killer, he got away with murder, and he has even gotten death threats! He was interviewed and emphasized that he's not THAT Casey Anthony and pleaded for those people to stop annoying him and his family. This has now gone way too far!

The jury didn't see or hear all the things that we did, only what was presented in court. No newspapers, editorials, tv special updates, never had to listen to Nancy Grace run her mouth. The prosecution didn't meet their burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. I agree, Smokey the Elder, the jury gave the right verdict based on what they had.

Great point, Mom! I am over it now. Casey does not deserve any more attention positive or negative IMO. She will dig her own grave eventually.

She will dig her own grave eventually.

It appears that she already has.

That juror went overboard. Her name wasn't released so she overreacted. As for the jury, they clearly could not put things together. They had more than enough evidence to convict Casey whether or not they got to hear all that we heard. There was no evidence of an accidental drowning or of sexual abuse but there was a LOT of evidence pointing to murder and by CASEY, chloroform and duct tape just to name two. I believe that the jury wanted to get it over with b/c they had been sequestered for so long. I think a terrible miscarriage of justice has taken place and that the jurors know it.

I saw another post, somewhere on the web, that sorta summed it up for me:

Florida, thanks for wasting our time yet again.

I think you are probably right.They had enough for a verdict of manslaughter. They were probably just concentrating on the murder charge
was wasn't proved beyond doubt.The very long sequestering had a bad effect on the jury & caused a rush to judgement.

[mrspunkysmom]

I thought they could have convicted on something similar to "depraved indifference" to human life. She did wait 30? days to tell her mother that she was missing. Maybe Florida doesn't have that or the District attorney overreached.

Amen! This is so wrong about threatening jurors. People are not going to want to serve on a jury.

And, yes...Nancy Grace...enough is enough.

HLN is lovin' NG right about now. Their ratings had tanked and she brought them back up. We'll probably see more of her and Jane Velez Mitchell more than ever. JVM reminds me of the irritating little sister that wants to tag along.

[lvpets2002]

I used to like them both.. But now I think they are both just too much of rattle mouths & alot of hot air..

Same here! I also got tired of Nancy G. never letting anyone who doesn't agree with her finish a sentence or talking over them. Why have them on if you are going to muffle them?
