The Wacky World of Casey Anthony

September 10, 2008

Casey AnthonyWe've got bloggers stealing trash, Lee Anthony destroying protesters’ signs, and Casey Anthony giving high fives. It would seem there is no end to the lunacy surrounding the Caylee Anthony case.

Before we get into these most recent developments, I would like to point out one thing I've learned since my return from Florida, and that is the fact that the "breaking" news you're getting from Nancy and Gretta is not necessarily breaking.

I found it humorous the other night when Gretta's show announced the protester fight that took place in front of the Anthony home as "breaking" news, when in fact it had occurred two or three days prior. I had the video of the fight online within an hour or so of the occurrence.

Then you have Nancy on the television talking about this bone discovery, which is supposedly "breaking news." I knew about that before I left. The only reason I did not mention it was because a spokesperson for EquuSearch had already told me that they were 99.9 percent positive they were animal bones.

I also find it funny that everyone is now jumping on the bandwagon regarding the book and movie deals. That is rehashed news from last week.

What I am trying to say is, don't get overly excited by everything they call "breaking" news. More often that not, it is tabloid fodder.

Casey AnthonyGetting back to the latest developments, can you believe someone actually took the trash from in front of the Anthony family home yesterday? I kid you not. I drove by the house about an hour or so before it happened. According to Myfoxspringfield.com, the woman, identified only as Lorraine, said she was a "blogger on MyFoxOrlando.com." Lorraine later reported that she found a pizza box, flowers, cards, and miscellaneous irrelevant items.

Meanwhile, Lee Anthony has been busy today as well. Perhaps taking the cue from his father, who allegedly assaulted a protester a few days ago, Lee grabbed a protester’s sign and attempted to destroy it by jumping up and down on it. His feeble attempt failed, and the lady and her sign were reunited a few moments later. Lee did get one good lick in—he tipped over a water dish the woman had set out for her dog. Go, Lee! <implied sarcasm>

And finally, what is up with Casey Anthony and the high five? I mean, come on, you have the entire country watching you, and you can't control yourself once you think they’re your out of sight? In case you haven't heard about this, it occurred on Tuesday when Casey and Lee were walking into her attorney's office. Once the pair thought they were out of sight, they smiled and each other and high fived. It remains unclear why, but it was tacky nonetheless.

Fun. Fun. Fun. Check back later for more updates on this bizarre case.
