Beware Casey Scamthony

by Levi Page

For the last three years, the country has been transfixed watching the weird antics and dysfunction of the family of murdered Orlando toddler Caylee Anthony. Now each family member seems to be in a battle over who deserves the most sympathy from the court of public opinion, and the jury deciding whether or not Casey Anthony, Caylee's mother, is responsible for her death.

This has caused the Anthony family to split apart, as Casey Anthony throws them under the bus to save her own skin. Formerly her biggest, most vocal, and only supporters, now have targets on their heads, and the defense is aiming right at them, characterizing her family as liars, sexually abusive, intimidating, and the poster family for dysfunction.

The nation watched in amazement as Casey Anthony's lead defense attorney Jose Baez gave his mesmerizing opening statement laying out how Caylee's death wasn't an act of foul play, but rather a tragic accidental drowning in a swimming pool. Baez wanted the jury to believe that Casey Anthony was intimidated by her sexually abusive, ex cop father, to not report the drowning, but to allow him to cover up the death, and dispose of Caylee's dead body. Baez even went so far as to allege that George Anthony was trying to frame Casey Anthony for murders. Jose Baez told the jury that Cindy Anthony was holding around guilt for leaving the ladder to the pool up, where Caylee could get into the pool by herself. Additionally, Baez painted a picture of a young Casey Anthony being forced to go to school as if nothing was wrong, after her father forced her to perform oral sex on him as a child.

It seems as if nobody is safe from being targeted by Casey and her defense team. Even the meter reader who discovered the body of Caylee has been accused by Casey's defense team as being a "morally bankrupt" individual with a thirst for money. The defense team claims Roy Kronk found Caylee's remains where George Anthony dumped them, and then put the remains in the wooded area 15 houses from the Anthony family home.

While the defense team wants us to believe Casey is a victim of her family, it is the other way around. Casey has victimized her family and friends. For example Casey Anthony stole $45,000 from her parents, causing them to almost loose their home. Casey even stole checks from her elderly grandmother, Shirley Plesea. Casey even took advantage of her so called best friend Amy Huizenga, stealing her check book, and then in January of last year pleading guilty to check fraud charges.

I wouldn't want to be connected in any way to Casey Anthony, as it is obvious that she is a self centered narcissistic brat that will scam people, use people, and throw anyone to the wolves in order to save herself, whether her allegations are true or not. Even to people she should love.

I'm not the biggest fan of the Anthony family, but I don't see a shred of evidence that George Anthony disposed of the body, or that he put the duct tape and heart shaped sticker over Caylee's mouth and nose. To the contrary, all the evidence points to Casey Anthony. Is it really reasonable that a male ex cop like George Anthony would put a pink heart shaped sticker over duct tape? That screams Casey Anthony and really fits into her immature personality.

Casey Anthony is a scam artist, constantly lying, constantly using other people, throwing them under the bus, and this current defense strategy is nothing unusual for her. Anyone want to bet that when this trial is over, Casey Anthony will throw her attorney Jose Baez under the bus and accuse him of some sort of misconduct? Anyone that is associated with her in anyway ends up getting stung.

It really shows that nobody is safe when it comes to Casey Anthony... or shall we call her Casey "Scamthony?"
