Excerpt:

Atlanta, GA – More than 900 pages of discovery documents related to the Casey Anthony murder case were released by the Florida State Attorney’s Office. We’ve read through the documents and have more information on the investigation and the Anthony family.

On the investigationThe discovery includes a letter and affidavit from a Michigan inmate to the prosecution. Curtis Jackson wrote that Casey asked him about hiring a hitman. Jackson said that Casey “asked me in coded language if I knew of anyone who was willing to be paid to kill someone." Jackson also wrote that Casey asked about disposing of children and if he knew which types of poison were untraceable. Jackson said he met Casey and her ex-boyfriend Anthony Lazzaro through a pen pal.

Another document describes Casey’s reaction to television reports that a child’s body had been discovered near the Anthony family home on December 11, 2008. Tammy Unser at the Orange County jail wrote, “She looked at the TV and immediately fell into the chair, doubling over and began to breath [sic] rapidly... [at] approximately 1140 she stated ‘Oh No’ after she heard the location of the news and that it was the body of a small child.”

Unser went on to write, “I asked her again if she was OK and she said yes, it was just too early to cry and she was not going to break down. She then changed the subject to football and began talking about the national championship game.”
