Casey Anthony hopes she will “redeem herself” one day, says new report
Enlarge picture
Casey Anthony has started psychological treatment and, as per a fresh report, she actually hopes she will live to see the day when she puts her daughter’s murder and the trial that saw her become “America’s most hated” behind her.

People magazine which, no later than last week, ran a story about how Anthony was in hiding and feeling depressed because she couldn’t go out and socialize with friends, is now saying she has high hopes of rehabilitation.

For those not in the know, Anthony stood trial for the murder of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee and, though evidence seemed damning from the get-go, she was acquitted.

The trial is one of the most controversial ever in the US, getting the public opinion inflamed about how the justice system worked (or didn’t, to be more precise) to allow a “monster” to walk free.

Now that she’s theoretically not guilty of the murder, Anthony hopes she will, one day, have a normal life or, at least, something close to it.

“A week after her psychological treatment began, Casey Anthony is doing ‘well,’ according to a source close to her, who adds, ‘She hopes she will someday redeem herself and live a productive life’,” People writes.

The same publication reports that more evidence in the case may emerge pretty soon, as media organizations have petitioned the judge to release a tape of Anthony in jail, reacting to news of the her daughter’s possible death.

“In court on Wednesday, a media organization argued for the release of a jailhouse video of Casey watching TV news reports saying police found remains, which turned out to be her missing daughter, 2-year-old Caylee,” People writes.

“According to detectives, Anthony doubled over and hyperventilated before asking for a sedative in the video,” says the mag, pointing that her reaction was odd because “the remains had not yet been identified,” which means she must have known they belonged to her daughter.

The tape in question was sealed in 2009 because the judge felt that it would be too inflammatory to show the jury, making the jurors lose objectivity.

A decision regarding its release will be made this week.

I think she did just what her father said on the Dr. Phil show....she was drugging Caylee to put her to sleep so she could go out and party. This one time Caylee didn't wake up. I strongly think she used Chloroform and killed her daughter by accident. I think she was scared and upset at first and tried to call her mom and couldn't get her. Then I think she decided she liked the idea of not having the responsibility of having a child and hid her.
Her parents put their foot down when they found out that she stole alot of money out of her grandparents account and found out that she was not working. She had been leaving Caylee with them on some nights telling them she had to work some nights ..they found out she wasn't working and told her they weren't keeping Caylee for her to go out and party.
I have been glued to this story since day one because it hit close to home with me. I have a daughter living in my home with her two children. She would leave them with us all the time and for days and sometimes weeks. We suspected drugs but could not prove it. She has so many so called friends that would let her and the kids move in with them if we kicked her out. We were so afraid for our grandchildren's safety that we would just keep the kids to protect them. Atleast this way we knew where they were and they were safe. We love our daughter so much but she is an adult and making her own choices. I wanted so many times to just kick my daughter out but I was afraid she would take the kids and something like what happened to Caylee would happen. Well one night at 3 in the morning a deputy called and told us my daughter was passed out in her car with the engine running and she had her one year old daughter in the carseat... ( the 5 year old son was home with us)....DSS was called and they gave us temp. custody of the kids. Months later my daughter went to rehab and as of today she has been clean and sober for 9 months. THANK YOU LORD!!!!!

To Gramma: That must of been very painful for you and your family. I have a 25 and 21 year old daughter, and my first grandchild due this December. Thankfully, neither of
my children have any type of substance abuse. I think the Anthony's did what they could, and love their daughter, in spite of all she has done. I cannot judge them. I am
sure I would be the same way with my children.

i'm not a lawyer or judge, but the judge couldn't release evidence that was too inflammatory. I thought that was the purpose of evidence?

That's exactly the same thing that I thought. This is evidence that the jury should have seen. There was a previous news story about remains that were found of a child in another location, and Casey just laughed when she watched that video, because she knew that wasn't her daughter! Now when they show the location of these remains, she freaked out? Obviously because she knew that was her daughter, because she is the one who dumped her there! Since when is "evidence" not supposed to be "inflammatory"?
That's what evidence against someone would be. DUH, as in Flori-DUH.
