Caylee Anthony's skeletal remains were found with a blanket inside a laundry bag in a wooded area near the Anthony family residence in Orlando, Florida, in December 2008. Casey was charged with first-degree murder in October 2008 and pleaded not guilty. Casey's defense claimed Caylee had drowned accidentally in the family's swimming pool and that George had disposed of the body. On July 5, 2011, a jury found Casey not guilty of murder, aggravated child abuse, and aggravated manslaughter of a child.
