New details have emerged in the case of missing Caylee Anthony - The family has now hired a 'psychic detective', Gale St. John, in hopes of finding Caylee.
It's also been revealed that Casey Anthony, the mother of missing Caylee and a person of interest in her disappearance, stole gas cans from her father's garage shortly before her daughter went missing.
Let's start with case facts (Scroll down for latest updates): The mother of a missing Florida toddler is a "person of interest" in a possible homicide.
Casey was formerly charged with child neglect and other charges involving alleged lies to police about her daughter's whereabouts. Caylee Marie Anthony, 2, has not been seen for more than a month. Caylee allegedly disappeared on June 9th.
Investigators have said stains, along with hair and dirt, were found in the trunk of a car belonging to the mother, Casey Anthony. There also was the odor of human decomposition, the same odor detected in her parents' backyard. Two separate cadaver dogs hit on the car, indicating the scent of death.
Investigators found nothing when they dug in the backyard of Caylee's grandmother Cindy Anthony's home, however.
Cindy Anthony, Casey's mother, told an interviewer on the "Early Show" on CBS that her daughter "has her reasons why she can't be completely honest" with police. Caylee's grandmother, Cindy, has maintained that she does not know anything about her granddaughter's disappearance and will not discuss her daughter's unwillingness to be honest with police.
The 911 tapes in which Cindy reported her granddaughter missing have been released. In the first tape, Cindy said her daughter Casey had been missing for a month and that she just found her. (Cindy recently said in court that she spoke with her daughter everyday between the time she disappeared and the time she returned.) She wanted Casey arrested and reported that she had stolen her automobile and "some money" on the 30th of June. Cindy said Casey would not tell her where Caylee is.
In the second tape, Cindy Anthony is obviously panicked and goes into detail about her granddaughter's disappearance. She told the dispatcher that her daughter just admitted that her granddaughter was taken by Casey's long-time babysitter. "There's something wrong," she said. Cindy found her daughter's car and told the dispatcher that the car smelled like there was a dead body in it. (Cindy recently insisted she did not smell a dead body, but a rotting pizza.) Casey then talks with the dispatcher, confirming that her daughter has been missing - and that she's been trying to find her through "other resources" before reporting it to police. Casey claimed she knows who took her daughter - her nanny. Her name is Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez.
It was revealed earlier this week that Casey Anthony was out partying a week after her daughter went missing. Casey was photographed partying with some lovely gentlemen at a club on June 20th - well after the date she told police her daughter went missing.
Casey has changed her story, as has her attorney, claiming the date she gave police as the day her daughter disappeared is false and that Casey was lacking the guidance of an attorney at the time. Apparently Caylee disappeared "much later" than the date Casey gave authorities, perhaps even early July. The grandmother Cindy, however, says Caylee was gone on June 15th.
Casey was also seen partying with friends on July 4th.
Crime Scene Investigators, or CSI, have taken "evidence" from the home of Cindy Anthony after arriving with empty bags and leaving with two full bags recently.
It is believed that CSI officials collected bags of evidence in the search for Caylee. Reports suggest Casey may have borrowed a shovel around the time Caylee disappeared. A new 'concrete slab' in the backyard was also brought into question.
Caylee Anthony's grandfather has alleged in a television interview that Caylee's mom stole two gas cans shortly before the youngster disappeared. George Anthony told Fox News Tuesday night the containers and about $50 worth of gasoline disappeared from his backyard tool shed in Orlando June 24 and he saw one of them in the trunk of a car belonging to his daughter, Casey Anthony, later that day.
The Orlando Sentinel said Orange County, Fla., sheriff's investigators recovered the cans from Casey Anthony's home Aug. Casey Anthony remained in jail Wednesday after being formally charged with child neglect and lying to police.
Authorities were searching lakes nearby the Anthony home last week, but claim the dives were not related to the Caylee case.
On August 11, the family of missing Caylee has reached out to psychic detective Gale St. John, who has appeared on several TV shows and has been hired for other cases. Gale planned to search the streets of Central Florida for a "person signature": "We will not even look at street names."
"We drive and go completely on feeling instinct, chasing down what we call a person signature," Gale explained.
Also, Casey has been refusing visits from her family, including her parents. (UPI contributed to this story.)
This is Lifetime Movie stuff for sure...
Sorry, but I’m gonna exercise my God-given right as an American and make a rush to judgement: the mom is guilty...
Paging, Dr.Phil,Dr.Phil
"Psychic wins mega lottery, again."
Caylee is dead. Her Mom knows it, and the grandparents know it.
Um, they don’t need a psychic, they need to ask that PWT mamma what she did with the baby. AND the grandmother seems as crazy as a loon.
Maybe the psychic will locate the fake babysitter.
Oxygen...............
LOL!!...........
They found the “fake babysitter”.......She’s never heard of these people and wants to be left alone........
Scott Peterson’s mother hired a psychic to find Lacey and the psychic told her her son killed her.
Needless to say, the psychic wasn’t retained after that.
Greta is giving this woman far too much face time. Calee’s grandmother is starting to believe her daughter’s stories. Oh, and the grandfather believes his daughter “more than 100%”.
My guess is that the baby died in the hot Florida sun while “mom” partied like a crack ho’ with a new EBT card, inside an air conditioned bar..............
The grandfather is even nuttier that gradma, imo.
I hope we do not have a winner.
I can’t wait ‘til the grandparents set up a ‘Help Bring Caylee Home’ fund. (Those interested will be able to pay through Paypal, although cash, credit cards, and checks will no doubt be welcome.) This will pay for any number of psychics and the poor child’s funeral expenses, plus her lying mother’s legal fees. At some point, and at the very least, the cops should charge the grandparents with obstruction of justice.
LOL- GOOD ONE!
Until then, it's all circus, but as the media gets bored, the loons may grow desparate and make that mistake.
