Update: Anthonys Release Statement

Excerpt:

update: The Anthonys have just released a statement denying the defense's opening statement. The timing suggests that the calling of critical witnesses is close.

Is Casey Anthony about to take the stand?

6 weeks before the trial, the Anthonys learned, after 3 years, that Casey would claim that Caylee died on June 16th, 2008, in a drowning accident in their home. It is unclear if they learned that the defense planned to blame George for dumping the child's body and for causing Casey's "insane" behavior (celebrating after the death) at this time, or closer to the opening statement. Added to this claim was that the meter reader, Roy Kronk, would also be implicated by Casey (via her attorney) in moving the body.

Yesterday, and then today, the Anthonys released a statement through their attorney that says that they recognize that Casey is guilty, but will fight the state's death penalty. The statement itself shows sensitivity via repetition.
