“Peacock has announced “Casey Anthony: Where the Truth Lies,” a limited docuseries featuring interviews with Anthony about the investigation, trial and media spectacle regarding accusations that she murdered her daughter, Caylee Anthony.” Variety just announced the three part series which will be on Peacock November 29th.
In Orlando Florida in 2011, Casey Anthony was tried and acquitted of a capital murder charge. She was tried in the death of her two-year-old daughter. The Florida trial reached national news as everyone at the time was very opinionated about the verdict. I still am. Here’s the trailer:
Some background to help get you back up to speed, from Wikipedia:
Caylee Marie Anthony was an American girl who lived in Orlando, Florida, with her mother, Casey Marie Anthony, and her maternal grandparents, George and Cindy Anthony. On July 15, 2008, she was reported missing in a 9-1-1 call made by Cindy, who said she had not seen Caylee for 31 days and that Casey’s car smelled like a dead body had been inside it. Casey told her parents that she had not seen Caylee for weeks. Casey lied to detectives, telling them Caylee had been kidnapped by a nanny on June 9, and that she had been trying to find her, too frightened to alert the authorities. She was charged with first-degree murder in October 2008 and pled not guilty.
On December 11, 2008, two-year-old Caylee’s skeletal remains were found with a blanket inside a laundry bag in a wooded area near the Anthony family’s house. Investigative reports and trial testimony varied between duct tape being found near the front of the skull and on the mouth of the skull. The medical examiner mentioned duct tape as one reason she determined the death was a homicide, while the cause of death was listed as “death by undetermined means.”
So what is Casey going to tell us in this series to make us change our minds about what happened? Remember all this?
