Casey Anthony, who was found not guilty less than two weeks ago of the murder of her, was freed from jail in the early Sunday hours. This was a very high profile case, and the verdict was extremely controversial due to the popular opinion of most in the U.S that Casey is guilty of murdering her child. Casey Anthony’s behavior and attitude during the time the child was missing, the parents change in testimony, and the rest of the trial’s twists and turns kept avid followers of this trial on the edge of their seats to see what happens next. The trial is over, Casey is free, and we highly doubt that means it’s the end of this saga. We will continue to keep a close eye on this story, and keep you informed, and up to date. You can also stay up to date with this timeline of the Case Anthony case. It begins when Caylee Anthony was last seen, and ends with today’s release from prison. We’re sure that won’t be the last addition to the list.

Below is the video of her walking free from the Florida prison.

From Reuters:

Witnesses saw Anthony, who had been acquitted on July 5 of culpability in Caylee’s death, exit escorted by guards wearing bullet-proof vests and carrying rifles, and stepped into a black SUV a few minutes after midnight. The Orange County Jail later confirmed her release.

A crowd of 300 had been waiting since midafternoon Saturday for Anthony’s release, and many rushed into the street to follow the vehicle as she was driven away, briefly blocking the eastbound lanes of a six-lane road before police cleared them away.

Many carried signs for and against Casey Anthony, and some chanted Caylee’s name.

It says in the article that Casey “left with the $537.68 remaining in her inmate account.” That’s more money than I have right now. FML – Sal
