Florida Prosecutors Bill $140G for Casey Anthony Case

Picture
The Florida State Attorney's Office wants Casey Anthony to cover the costs -- more than $140,000 -- incurred in relation to her prosecution, according to documents revealed Thursday.

Anthony was found not guilty earlier this month of murdering her two-year-old daughter Caylee in a high-profile trial that gripped the nation. Since her release from Orange County Jail in Orlando, Fla., on July 17, after spending nearly three years behind bars, her whereabouts have been unknown.

Anthony was convicted of four counts of giving false information to police officers, but because of time already served and other factors, she was set free.

On Thursday, prosecutors filed 281 pages of documents detailing a range of expenses related to her trial -- including airfares and hotel accommodation for witnesses, and payments to experts -- totaling $141,362, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

The State Attorney's Office wants Anthony to pay for its prosecution and investigative costs and intends to address the matter at a hearing Aug. 25.

The $141,362 bill does not cover all expenses associated with Anthony's case.

Earlier in the week, it was revealed that work done by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation came to around $82,000.

Expenses incurred by the Orange County Sheriff's Office, which headed the investigation, have yet to be submitted.

Wanna Dress Like Casey Anthony For Halloween?

Will the Casey Anthony costume be all the rage this Halloween? If the bidding frenzy over a single Casey Anthony mask on eBay is any indication, then then answer is a resounding “yes.”

The disturbingly life-like mask was part of a film shoot, and the prop was crafted by an artist that goes by the name “Torro” according to the listing, and seller “prophunter” thinks the mask is more horrifying than anything, saying, “Forget Freddy, Jason, Meyers, here’s your chance to scare the *#&% out of everyone and win every costume contest,” adding, “No matter what your opinion of the trial is, this is still one heck of a conversation piece. I bet Nancy Grace would love one of these.”

Nancy Grace may be one of the ones bidding — the current bid for the mask is over $1,000 at the time of this writing.

The auction description says the mask is one of only 9 made, and declares it to be a “significant piece of crime history” after Anthony’s widely publicized trial for the murder of her daughter Caylee. Anthony was acquitted of all charges related to Caylee’s death beyond four counts of lying to police.

So if you want to be the talk of your Halloween party this year go ahead and place a bid — but be warned, looking like Casey Anthony can have some unexpected consequences.
