Casey Anthony is a US citizen. She is a resident of the state of Florida.
Under US law, a person charged with a crime is considered innocent by the court until such a time that a case has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt against them (that's reasonable doubt, not beyond a shadow of a doubt). The case is currently being presented to a jury (May through July 2011 approximately) and the motive for the child's death may or may not be determined. Why the child died is not the matter being decided at trial, only if Casey Anthony deliberately or accidently, while commiting child abuse, killed her or not.
According to a jury of her peers, she was pronounced not guilty on July 5, 2011.
Casey Anthony was charged with multiple counts, including first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, aggravated manslaughter of a child, and providing false information to law enforcement, in relation to the death of her two-year-old daughter, Caylee Anthony, in 2008. However, she was acquitted of all major charges in 2011, except for lying to law enforcement.
On October 14, 2008 the Grand Jury charged Casey Anthony with first degree murder. She entered a plea of not-guilty to the charges and is currently (June-July 2011) on trial; the charges before the jury are:
According to a jury of her peers, she was pronounced not guilty of the first three charges and guilty of the fourth charge of providing false information, on July 5, 2011.
Casey Anthony's case does not directly relate to cognitive theory. Cognitive theory focuses on how thoughts, perceptions, and beliefs affect behavior. The Casey Anthony case involved a high-profile trial in which she was accused of murdering her daughter. While cognitive factors may have influenced the actions of the individuals involved in the case, it is not a case that is typically used to illustrate cognitive theory.
There is no definitive information available about whether Casey Anthony smokes or not.
There is no substantiated information about a specific girl dancing with Casey Anthony. Casey Anthony is a notorious figure who was acquitted of charges related to the death of her daughter, Caylee Anthony, in 2011. It is important to be cautious with unsubstantiated claims or rumors.
Casey Anthony was found Not Guilty of all federal charges against her, and found Guilty on the misdemeanor charges of providing false information to law enforcement. The verdicts on all charges are as follows:
First-Degree Murder: Not Guilty
Aggravated Child Abuse: Not Guilty
Aggravated Manslaughter: Not Guilty
4 Charges of Providing False Information to Law Enforcement: Guilty
The real story of the death of Caylee Anthony will never be known. The only person who knows is not talking and even if she did, no one would really believe her. Casey Anthony is on official record as a liar and a story teller.
The Casey Anthony story isn't really so important. There are many, many cases where a child disappears or dies and the parent is the only suspect. For some reason, this case captured the attention of the public, most likely because of the frantic search for the missing child and the last person seen with her would not help the authorities in finding her and kept misdirecting their efforts. With most of the facts of the case in question and the unusual behavior of the 'lead character', the story was a great opportunity for the media to spend hour after hour speculating and holding the attention of the public.
The Orange County Court is the court that heard the Casey Anthony case. Jurors, however, were brought in from Pinellas County. The case was so widely publicized in Orlando that the judge felt it would be too difficult to find 12 neutral jurors in Orange County.
She is in jail, just not for long. The jury acquitted the charges for murder and convicted on four charges of giving false sworn statements to police. She was sentenced to four years in jail, less time served and time off for good behavior. She was released from jail on July 17, 2011 with no further criminal charges pending.
According to Casey's mother, Cindy Anthony, Casey attended Colonial High School in Orlando, FL, but she did not graduate. Casey left high school one half credit short of getting her diploma.
It is believed by most people, that Kaylee Anthony was killed by her mother. Although a jury found Casey Anthony not guilty, a finding of 'not guilty' of a crime does not equal 'innocent' of the crime. The police in the case did an extremely thorough investigation of the case; they exhausted every lead they could find and were unable to find any other person connected to the child except her mother, who was the child's guardian and responsible for the child's welfare at the time of her death. The only information that Casey Anthony would provide the investigators about the disappearance of Caylee was proven to be lies.
Caylee Anthony's body, when found, was too badly decomposed to determine the exact cause of death. The evidence in the case was circumstantial and the jury, although not sure of Casey's innocence said there was not enough information to prove her a murderer.
This case is very similar to the OJ Simpson case in the fact that public opinion and the jury's decision are going to be very different. The jury found her not guilty on July 5, 2011. Whether or not she is actually innocent is something that we will probably never know.
That's what Casey said but no one knows!
No one, probably not even Casey, knows who the biological father is. She says he died in a car accident, but none of her known sexual partners have died.
Casey Anthony is a free woman who has completed serving her sentence for the crimes for which she was convicted. The jury at her trial acquitted her of all charges in relation to the death of her daughter. She was convicted only of the charges of lying to police on sworn statements. She was sentenced to four years in jail on those charges, less time served and time off for good behavior. She was released from jail on July 17, 2011 and faces no further criminal charges.
If information becomes available to the judge that would indicate that under the law the defendant did not receive a fair trail due to this new information it is possible, but unlikely. And it would usually come before a verdict is reached by the jury.
It is also possible, but rarely seen, that a judge will put aside the jury's recommendation as to the punishment phase. In most states, the jury recommends death, life with no parole, ect. A judge can refuse the jury and make his own recommendation.
If a guilty verdict has been handed down and sentence is passed, it's a done deal. It would have to be corrected by a new trial or on appeal from a higher court. New trials are hard to come by. The evidence must be substantial to justify the time and expense to taxpayers that a new trial would generate.
Casey Anthony didn't kill her daughter. She was found innocent! It is over. Done. Period. Get over it.
Casey Anthony was acquitted of all charges relating to the death of her daughter by a jury on July 5, 2011. Acquitted does not equal innocent, it means that the jury did not find the evidence sufficient to convict her. The only person who knows why Caylee died is not talking and even if she did, no one would really believe her. Casey Anthony is on official record as a liar and a story teller.
Yes she has. Skeletal remains were found on December 11, 2008 in a wooded area near the Anthony home. These remains were later identified by DNA as Caylee Anthony's remains. See the link below for the Orange County Sheriff's Office Crime Scene Investigation Report.
That is unknown. The remains of Caylee Anthony were found in a wooded area not far from the Anthony home. Her remains were completely decomposed so that the time and cause of death could not be determined. Based on the last time that the child was seen alive, it is estimated that she died right in the middle of June 2008.
In a world that exists only in her own mind.
Caylee Anthony passed away at the age of two. Her mother Casey Anthony was tried for her death and possible murder from 2009-2011. When her body was found in the woods near the Anthony's home, it was too badly decomposed to determine a cause of death.
Caylee Anthony was 2 years old (almost 3) at the time of her death. She was born on August 9, 2005. The approximate date of her death is June 16, 2008, less than two months shy of her third birthday.
Casey Anthony was found not guilty by the jury in the murder of two-year-old Caylee Anthony. Her body, when found, was too badly decomposed to determine the exact cause of death. The evidence in the case was circumstantial and the jury, although not sure of Casey's innocence said they was not enough information to prove her a murderer.
This case is very similar to the OJ Simpson case in the fact that public opinion and the jury's decision are going to be very different. The jury found her not guilty on July 5, 2011. Whether or not she is actually innocent is something that we will probably never know.
ADDED: A finding of Not Guilty (beyond a reasonable doubt) of a crime is NOT synonymous with stating that the individual is 'innocent' of the crime.
