Story by: Marva HintonCindy Anthony is explaining the photos that show her daughter, Casey, partying after Caylee was reported missing.
Cindy says Casey wasn't out having fun, and this was all part of her investigation into Caylee's disappearance.
"She told the investigators," said Cindy. "It's in her statement. She started going out where she knew these people, this person frequented trying to find clues of where this person may be."
Cindy also has an explanation for the pictures that show Casey drinking and hanging onto friends.
"I'm not a mind reader," said Cindy. "I just know my daughter, and if she's trying to not throw a red flag up to people, that's what she's doing."
Cindy also criticized the media for some of the coverage of this case. She says too much of the focus is on Casey when it should be on the search for Caylee.
What others are saying
- AnthonysAt first I felt sorry for the grandparents, but at this point I have no sympathy for any of them. This precious little girl was given no mercey when her own mother drugged her and put her in the trunk of her car, I wouldn't even put a goldfish in the trunk of my car, she knew exactly what she was doing. Depression, my ass. The bitch is a dambed psycho, and the jury needs to show her the same mercy that she showed that little girl. And as for the other family members, they are just as culpable. George was a detective and Cindy is a nurse. Please!! Then you have the brother Lee. Where is he anyway? He laughed when he commented on the odor of the vehicle. Where do these people come from? I've met gang members with more empathy. God will have the last word. Caylee is now with Him. Bless this child.
- CayleeI have been following this since day one. Remeber all the telephone calls that were made from jail? Casey at first was so cooperative with speaking to her mother and brother. "Don't worry, I know where she is" yeah she sure does. After the police found her car and had it towed, I'm wondering if someone questioned or looked at the miles that were driven, during Casey's 30 day leave from motherhood. Maybe she left a paper trail on when and how she spent the stollen money and forged checks. She needed gas in order to travel around (stollen from her parents)
One other comment, on how the "dogs" hit on the play house, possibly Casey placed Caylee in the play house (already dead) and then went back and put her into the trunk? Remember that the swimming pool ladder was raised up and then the next day, it was down? Possibly she drowned in the pool and tot mom put her in the play house until she could figure out what to do with her?
This whole case brings back memories of the Natalie Holloway story, and the lies that came from Joran.."no body, no crime!!!!!
Makes you wonder. - CayleeI don't understand how Cindy can just keep making excuses for her daughter. If this had been my daughter, I would know where my granddaughter is right about now. She keeps saying that Jose Baez is not letting Casey talk to anyone not even her family, but that is so ridiculous, because he wouldn't be telling me not to ask my daughter questions. When she got out on bond, She would have told me where Caylee was as soon as she hit the door. These people are crazy (the mom, dad, brother and killer daughter). I just pray everyday that they find her dead or alive, more than likely dead though. Also, I feel that she put her in a dumpster, because she hasn't turned up anywhere. But she's with the Lord now, so she's better off than with those coocoo people.
- Casey anthonyCasey's parents knew their daughter had many,many problems, this just didn't happen over night. Casey had been doing illegal things, that they were aware of. Why, did no family member call police sooner, if I hadn't seen or spoken on phone with my grandaughter in days, I certaintly would not wait 30 days to call police. Knowing Casey's troubled past why did someone not protect that little girl sooner? Bless Calie forever!
- casey anthonyShame on her mother, who knows their daughter better than a mother. Her mother knows in her heart the truth,she knows her daughters past. She knows the life Casey was living, her behavior did not happen over night. If that was my grandchild and I kept asking where she was and had't seen her, I would go to my daughter's house, I would not let up. I certaintly would NOT WAIT 30 DAYS to do something about it! Shame on you!
- Casey AnthonyUnfortunately we all know that Caylee is dead. Forensic evidence is pointing in that direction. Casey should have been allowed to give Caylee up for adoption like she wanted to before she was born. Then Casey could live the kind of life she wanted to and not hurt an innocent child. God Bless the child.
- casey anthonyThis oviously is a girl without a care in the world, since day one you could tell that they would never find that little girl, I have a daughter and she is my life, If she was gone for even 5 min. without me knowing where she was at I would freak out, and she is 10yr, I did not want to have children, and God gave me the most precious gift of all my daughter, life is meaningless with out her.Casey Anthony has no conscious, and her parents are idiots, they know there daughter better than anybody, they know what happend to that sweet little girl,God forgive them! Nobody else will!!!!!!!
- the ANTHONY famlyWhat a bunch of NUTS, especially Cindy, George and Casey. If they knew just how ignorant tehy come across they'd all run from the tv cameras. George & Cindy are trying to cover for Casey adn it won't work in the end.
- I prayWhy can the police get her in a room and question her for hours like thay do the other criminals.Let's face it she is a daughter of a a former cop.She knows what has happen...Is she really this cold hearted?I can not believe this.I could never sit back and let someone take my daughter.I would tell everything.She did something to that poor little.I pray she hasn't,But let's face it.kaylee meet danger when she meet her Mom.Poor sweet little girl a defensless child is on the line.Why
can't the plice be more harsh.If she doesn't care about her own daughter,Then why should anyone care about her?i pray if that little poor baby turns up alive then for god sake someone should take her away from that lying ,cold hearted woman.She has no right to have such a gift.My prayers are with Caylee.Not that family because thay can make her tell the truth,And yet thay sit back and lt her do this.SOMEONE DO SOMETHING BEFORE IT IS TO LATE.If thay are not already to late........ - AttentionNana is so upset she has to make these daily national television interviews. Seems happy to do them and as emotionless as her daughter. I like how Nana blames the Sheriff's Dept, especially after that nice 911 call asking them to arrest her daughter for stealing from her. But against the police will get you national attention. That's what nana wants right now. Yesterday's visit, no mention of how or where little Caylee is with Casey. They know what happened, know just need to keep their 15 mins of fame running 'til it runs out.
- Yeah right! And OJ is still looking for Nicole and Ron's killer.
- Terrible twosA 2 yr old can really put a kink in a party life, and that is not why they call it terrible twos! How high did Casey run up grandma's credit card?...I hurt for baby Cassey, who's job was it to protect her when she came home from the hospital? Give us all a break!
- Sentence StructureCan someone translate this sentence into something intelligible?
"and if she's trying to not throw a red flag up to people, that's what she's doing." - momWhat Investigation is Cindy refering to? I think I understand why daughter Casey is not all there. Wake up!!!!!!!!
