Casey Anthony: Free in One Week

Tot mom Casey Anthony's probation ends a week from today and she will be free to go on her merry way. Oh, wait, hold that thought, Casey! The civil trial, brought about by Zenaida Gonzalez, starts on August 28th. This trial stems from Casey giving her name as the nanny who took her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, in 2008.

First of all, this trial is ridiculous. Ms. Gonzalez is just trying to cash in on her 15 minutes of fame, much like Roy Kronk. Casey never identified this particular Zenaida Gonzalez as the one who took her daughter. Of course, as everyone knows now, this was a complete fabrication, as was just about everything else Casey Anthony told police regarding her daughter's disappearance. But how can this woman sue Casey for "ruining her life?" By the time this woman was discovered, almost everything Casey had said had already been declared fictional. Yes, she may have used the name, she may even have somehow come across the signature card at Sawgrass Apartments to provide a link to this particular woman, but the physical description was nowhere near the reality of the woman's appearance and Casey was unable to identify her in a photo line up. So, really, unless she is the only Zenaida Gonzalez in the world, how does she have the right to sue? Or does that mean everyone who shares that name can attempt to collect money from the clearly disturbed Ms. Anthony?

Ms. Gonzalez, your name was cleared of any involvement with the Anthony family almost immediately after it was spoken. Your life was not ruined and your case is pointless. Talk about getting blood out of a turnip.

Really? The woman lost her job, her home... and was shunned because of what Casey said. She suffered damages... because people believed what Casey said and thought she was a kidnapper/killer. All Casey had to do was sign a paper while she was in jail saying this was not the woman who was the babysitter and this case never would have happened. Casey chose not too. Of course we NOW know Casey changed the story to one where Caylee drowned. She also stated on tape when money was raised to look for Caylee, that she wanted it used to bail her out of jail. Yea.. a whole lot of people went to a whole lot of trouble to look for a child that "accidentally drowned"... and this "worried" cough cough, didn't say one word of appreciation... because she knew her daughter was in a bag a few blocks from her home where she "loving" cough cough, left her. I think her retired detective father would have come up with a much better plan if he was involved in anyway. Anybody who watches crime shows could have come up with a better plan.

I agree with you Heather. I think Zenaida Gonzalez has every right to sue Casey for defamation of character. I in know way think that her case is unjustified or seeking her 15 minutes of fame. Casey not only killed her child but hurt so many people in the process. She deserved to be found guilty and deserves all is thrown at her.

Thanks Rhonda! Orlando is not far from where I live. Our local news coverage of the whole thing may have been a lot more than what was broadcast country wide. Casey could have signed the paper, but I think at the time, she was still going with the "kidnapper" story. All she had to do is say this was not the woman she left Caylee with and she refused to do it. When there was a hearing about it before the trial, her parents had to go and Cindy was hostile and down right rude. Their daughter put them in the spotlight... but she also put this Zenaida too.. and Zenaida didn't even know her. Seems to me Casey has no conscience of who she hurt, she wouldn't even lift a finger to clear this woman's name. It makes it easier to believe she is the heartless person who murdered her daughter even if the prosecution did not prove it to the jury. Most said they believed she did it, but the prosecution didn't "prove" it.

Are you serious? I would be willing to bet Zenaida would trade her "15 minutes of fame" to get back the life she had before Casey Anthony had her name plastered all over the national news!! You say "Casey never identified this particular Zenaida Gonzalez as the one who took her daughter" but are there that many women with the name Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez running around Florida? No matter how briefly her name was out there, the fact of the matter is she was blamed for something she was absolutely not involved in and as a result had her life ruined! I hope she wins a judgement so large Casey will be forced to eat Ramen noodles for the rest of her miserable life!

I agree Mystic though I prefer that Casey does not have enough money left for Ramen noodles. she should be locked up. She got away with murder and I think even her parents believe that.

Exactly how much money did Dr. Phil McGraw shell out to get Casey Anthony’s parents on his show back in September? According to a forthcoming article in People magazine, McGraw donated $600,000 to Caylee’s Fund, a controversial charity George and Cindy Anthony set up to protect grandparents’ rights and exploited children. But People reports that much of the money actually went to support Casey, who was acquitted of murder in the 2008 death of her daughter a year ago this Thursday. The story, titled “The Strange, Lonely Life of Casey Anthony,” is slated to run on the first anniversary of her acquittal

I guess if Casey does an interview for free... but theirs a donation to the "charity" she can avoid paying a judgment.

Doesn't seem right does it?
