Anthony family attorney: Memorial toys for Caylee to be donated to charity

The Anthony family has decided to donate toys that have been accumulating at a makeshift memorial for Caylee Marie Anthony to the Orlando Union Rescue Mission to help children in need.
The Anthonys' attorney, Brad Conway, made the announcement at a news conference Sunday afternoon alongside the memorial of balloons, notes, pictures and hundreds of stuffed animals that has been building near the crime scene.
"The Anthony family knows that what Caylee would want is for some other children to have these gifts," Conway said. "She always shared her toys with other kids, and they know if Caylee was here, she would share these."
The family has not made specific arrangements for a funeral for the Caylee, the toddler whose remains were found Dec. 11 in a plastic bag about a quarter of a mile from her grandparents' home on Hopespring Drive.
Caylee was 2 when she was last seen in June. Her mother, Casey Anthony, 22, has been charged with murder in Caylee's death. On Dec. 19, investigators said a DNA sample taken from bones found at the crime scene matched a sample of Caylee's DNA.
Earlier this weekend, a steady stream of mourners continued to visit and leave toys on the makeshift memorial for Caylee.
About 3 p.m. Saturday, the Orange County Sheriff's Office shut down the crime scene, and many of the people gathered around the memorial made their way down the street to see where Caylee's remains were found.
