Casey Anthony Seeing Shrink, Grief Counselor

Her parents may still be divided over her guilt , but no one disputes that whatever happened in 2008, this is one seriously messed up individual. Casey Anthony’s attorney, Jose Baez, said she would seek psychological treatment as soon as she was a free woman. Looks like that was doubly true. Sources close to Anthony says that the acquitted murder suspect has been seeing a grief counselor and will soon see a female psychiatrist to boot. “She needs serious help,” says the source . “We’ll see what this will do.” Casey Anthony needs more than counseling. But it can’t hurt. Anthony has been traveling extensively since her acquittal, likely in an attempt to keep her whereabouts a mystery amid serious death threats. She is now back in Florida while she serves a one-year probation on a check fraud case. Baez said that Anthony needed treatment for the trauma of losing her child and her subsequent incarceration for the better part of three years. Yesterday, she was ordered to pay nearly $100,000 for misleading law enforcement officials in their efforts to locate missing daughter Caylee.

Casey Anthony Sentenced to Four Years in Prison, May Be a Free Woman Soon

Casey Anthony was found not guilty of murder earlier this week, but was sentenced to a year in prison today for making false statements to investigators. Her lies to police during the investigation of the death of her daughter Caylee came early and often following the toddler’s 2008 disappearance. The Casey Anthony jurors believed that, despite her lies about what happened to Caylee, there wasn’t sufficient evidence that she killed her daughter. However, Anthony was convicted of fours separate counts of lying to authorities – fabrications that sparked a massive manhunt for her missing child. Casey Anthony was also hit with $4,000 in fines. The charges each carried a maximum of a year in prison, and Judge Belvin Perry gave her four years . However, she’s already served most of that. In custody since 2008, Casey may be released from jail in late July or early August based on time served and good behavior while incarcerated. The exact date of her release is still TBD. Anthony’s defense argued that the four misdemeanors occurred during one day of questioning and therefore should be counted as a single crime. To punish her on four counts would violate double jeopardy rules, the defense said, but Perry was unmoved and Casey was jailed – for now. “As a result of those four distinct lies, law enforcement expended time, energy and manpower looking for young Caylee Marie Anthony,” he said. Nevertheless, while she’ll be working on her new advice book from a cell for the time being, it won’t be long until the 25-year-old walks free. [Photo: WENN.com]
