Casey Anthony: Will she win appeal?
posted by halboedeker on January, 8 2013 6:08 PM

Casey Anthony was back in a big way on Tuesday newscasts, although she was nowhere to be seen.

Attorney Lisabeth Fryer argued in the Fifth District Court of Appeal in Daytona Beach that Anthony’s four convictions for lying to law enforcement should be tossed.

WFTV-Channel 9 legal analyst Bill Sheaffer predicted that Anthony won’t win. “In the end, Casey needs two of these three judges to find in her favor. The likelihood is, she’s not going to get it,” he said.

WFTV’s Kathi Belich highlighted that both sides “faced a barrage of questions from the judges during the 15 minutes they each had to make their cases.”

WOFL-Channel 35 titled its Anthony segment: “Will Anthony Get Another Break?” Attorney Hal Uhrig, serving as WOFL’s legal analyst, said that if Anthony wins the appeal, the misdemeanor convictions will go away.

What would that mean in a civil trial against Anthony? Uhrig predicted that Anthony’s statement about Zenaida Gonzalez might not be introduced if it’s determined that the comment was obtained unlawfully. ”She may avoid the consequences of a Zenaida Gonzalez case,” Uhrig said.

Gonzalez is suing Anthony for defamation for being linked to Caylee’s disappearance.

WESH-Channel 2’s Bob Kealing quoted the prosecution’s representative who said that it could be weeks or months before the judges decide. (Belich said it could be days before a decision.)

WESH anchor Jim Payne summed up the story: Anthony’s legal team argued “that she was placed in handcuffs, then later questioned illegally without being read her Miranda rights.”

Kealing said that the judges “really bored down on that defense notion that Casey Anthony was actually in custody because she’d been handcuffed when she is alleged to have lied to the police.” But Kealing added that the judges “went after” the prosecution’s representative by “asking perhaps if the detectives had used the guise of looking for Anthony’s daughter, Caylee, to question Casey illegally.”

WKMG-Channel 6 anchor Gaard Swanson wanted to know what happens if judges side with Anthony.

WKMG reporter Mike DeForest said, “If Casey Anthony does win her appeal, it’s possible the judges could order a new trial. But since she has already served her time in jail, it’s unclear whether prosecutors would ever take her to trial again.”

After that, Swanson added, “Still a mess, isn’t it?”

What do you think?
