Caylee Anthony’s murder was not a random act, but rather an exact plan that was put into place leading up to and after her death. When she disappeared in July 2008, Caylee Anthony was two years old and her mother, Casey Anthony, was an outgoing twenty-two year old. Due to Casey’s frequent partying and drinking, she claimed the identity of Caylee’s father was unknown, but he may have died in a car crash before Caylee’s birth.

In Orlando, Florida, the Anthony family carried on their lives as normal until July 2008 when Cindy called 911 reporting ‘“I found out my granddaughter has been taken, she has been missing for a month’” (Escherich). On that hot summer day, the Anthony household was changed forever. Immediately, Casey Anthony was questioned for not reporting Caylee’s disappearance for over a
