Casey Anthony Case Study

Casey Anthony became a recognized name in 2008 when she failed to report her daughter, Caylee Anthony, missing until a month after she vanished, and then continued to lie throughout the investigation. It wasn’t even Casey who reported Caylee missing. It was Caylee’s grandmother Cindy. Casey Anthony was born March 19, 1986 in Warren, Ohio. Her parents are Cynthia (Cindy) and George Anthony and she only has one sibling, Lee Anthony. Casey has had a lying problem since she was in high school. One example is when she was a senior, she basically quit school, but still led her family to believe she’d graduate. She just stopped going to classes and they had no idea. She even lied, saying she was still a virgin, while pregnant with Caylee and not telling

On July thirteenth, Cindy and George Anthony found an impound notice on a door that wasn’t used much. The impound notice told them that the car was abandoned in a parking lot and it’s been in impound since June 30. The car was impounded in Orlando, but Casey and Caylee were supposed to be in Jacksonville. When they picked it up, it had Casey’s purse and Caylee’s things inside and George Anthony claimed the trunk smelled like a decomposing body. In actuality Casey was in Orlando and claimed to work at Universal Studios as an event planner. She didn’t tell her boyfriend, who she was living with, that her daughter was missing. She also didn’t tell her friend, Amy, who she had been spending a lot of time with that Caylee was missing. She said there was only two people who knew about Caylee being kidnapped. Their names are Jeff and Juliette, who she claimed to work with. During most of the investigation, she swore that her nanny, Zenaida, kidnapped Caylee on June ninth. She said that she dropped the girl off at Zenaida’s and when she went to pick her up, they were nowhere to be found and that she waited around to see if they were maybe running late. This was also found out to be false. There were people who saw Caylee a week after she was “kidnapped.” There was never a nanny and the place where Casey says dropped Caylee off was under construction at the

Everyone’s main question, why? Why she was not charged with the murder of this innocent child? Casey claimed that the nanny kidnapped the girl and she spent a month stupidly trying to find them herself. As the investigation went on police learned that there was no nanny and Casey did not work where she said she did, she was fired. In addition to that the two people who she said she told about Caylee’s disappearance, conveniently could not be contacted. They both moved and Casey’s phone that had their numbers broke. By the time investigators found out that one of these people had left Universal Studios years ago and the other could not be found as an employee, it wasn’t surprising. Her reasoning for running investigators in circles was that she was going to places that Caylee liked. Casey Anthony’s first arrest was on July 16, 2008 with the charges of child neglect, filing false official statements, and obstructing a criminal investigation. (crime
