Casey Anthony Is Back! - The Casey Anthony Story
14 Mar 2025
The Casey Anthony case gained national attention in 2008 when her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Anthony, was reported missing in Orlando, Florida. Casey initially lied to authorities about Caylee’s whereabouts, and after a month-long search, the child’s remains were found in a wooded area near the family home. Casey was charged with first-degree murder, but in a highly controversial 2011 trial, she was acquitted of murder but convicted of lying to law enforcement.
Full Episode
So this woman just joined TikTok and she might already be the most hated TikToker in TikTok history. Let me explain. So her name's Casey and Casey is unemployed, living in Florida with her parents. And one day in 2005, life drops a bomb on her. She's pregnant. Now, why is this a problem for Casey? Well, not only is she unemployed, but she's also only 19 years old. She ain't ready for all this.
So she decides, oh, I'll just give the baby up for adoption. But Casey's mom, who we'll just call Casey's mom, Casey's mom says, absolutely not. So Casey has the baby and she keeps her. And the baby's name is Baby Kaylee. So now Casey and Baby Kaylee live at home with Casey's parents. But here's where we run into problems.
According to Casey's friends, Casey is a little jealous that all her friends get to be normal 19 year olds and get to go out and party and stuff while Casey is stuck at home taking care of a baby. So then over the next few years, Casey starts lying to her parents about having a job. She'll tell them, oh, I got to go to work.
And her mom will watch baby Kaylee while Casey leaves and goes off to party with her friends. These are actually some pictures of her partying. There's another picture of her partying. You get the idea. And to keep up the lie to her parents that she has a job, she starts stealing from people, from her friends, from her family. She's taking money from her mom's purse.
She's forging checks, all kinds of stuff. Plus, she keeps making up lies to get other people to babysit for her. I mean, she clearly no longer wants to be a parent. And eventually, she unfortunately gets her wish. Because it's now 2008. And one day, Casey tells her parents she's going on some work trip and that she's going to leave baby Kaylee with a nanny.
And this all seems pretty normal behavior from her at the time. But then, Casey suddenly just... disappears like she doesn't come home and her parents haven't seen her in a while and they start to get a really bad feeling that something terrible happened then a month goes by and Casey's parents get a letter saying the car Casey had been driving was impounded
So Casey's dad, who we'll just call Casey's dad, her dad goes to pick it up. And when he gets to the impound lot, something immediately is very wrong. Because there's a really strong odor coming from the trunk of the car. And there's nothing of importance in the trunk right now, but it smells like there had been a body in there.
Now, at some point during all this, Casey finally comes home, and baby Kaylee is not with her. And that is when Casey's mom freaks out and calls the police.
My daughter was missing for a month. I just found her today, but I can't find my granddaughter. She just admitted to me that she's been trying to find her herself. There's something wrong. I found my daughter's car today, and it smells like there's been a dead body in the damn car.
