Mother of missing Caylee Anthony seeks jail release to help in search Amy L. Edwards and Walter Pacheco | Sentinel Staff Writer 10:16 AM EDT, July 22, 2008 The grandmother of missing 2-year-old Caylee Marie Anthony wants her daughter out of jail to help search for the toddler, but admits her daughter cannot tell police the truth about the girl's disappearance or why she has lied. "I don't think she can tell police anything," Cindy Anthony said this morning on CBS's Early Show. "She has her reasons why she can't be completely honest." Cindy Anthony alluded that 22-year-old Casey Anthony left the toddler with someone who has possibly threatened the family. "I think she entrusted [Caylee] with the same person who has been threatening her and that's why she can't be honest," Cindy Anthony said on the nationally televised show.

I posted this because I think this grandmother is NUTS! She’s been on every news channel lately (Megyn Kelly, Greta, Nancy Grace) and she’s combative and bombastic. She told Greta she should do something she’s finally proud of (paraprased).
I'm sure she does.
This whole story is bizzare and so is the family. All these cloak and dagger comments flying around are ridiculous when they need to just come clean and let folks know where the child is.
grandma didnt like Greta’s multi-part Bret Favre interview?!?
I heard the phone in interview with the grandma on Fox yesterday - boy Meghan was not happy by the end of that convo! Is the Mom of this little girl a druggie?
That mother has sold that child or traded her for drugs...
Mark my words..that’s what’s happened...And the grandmother knows the truth.
This is the strangest story I’ve seen in some time, yet probably still pretty basic. Th “mom” can’t tell the truth to the police to help find the girl, while the police are singularly focused on finding the girl. The grandma is completely nuts (and is likely complicite in whatever occurred). To me, there is a good reason the “mom” doesn’t mind being locked up on obstruction charges: because she is trying to avoid a worse charge. Strange, yet basic.
honestly, she acts like it. she is SO defensive and weird and I can’t figure it out.
I loved how Meghan Kelly ended her interview with the rude grandma by saying something like "obviously we are trying to help locate the child, unlike some of the family members" - it was a great slam
something else that was too weird; there was a comment made that when the little girl was born she was taken directly from the mother and given to the grandmother.
Either 1) mother tested positive for drugs (VERY possible) OR 2) grandmother is a complete nut control freak that has wedged herself between the two.
Bottom line is, I do think the grandmother knows what happened and either the little girl is already dead or she’s been sold off.
The crazy granny even had almost exactly the same fit on Geraldo on Saturday night I think. She’s too defensive for someone who doesn’t know anything.
She knows exactly where that baby is..and if the cops are smart, they won’t play her game.
So you probably hit the nail on the head there - the daughter is a white trash drug addict who sold off her child for a fix and didn't even realize it or care for weeks. Probably didn't care until someone in her family finally started asking questions and she had to lie to cover her a$$
It’s nuts! The mother needs to start talking. The grandmother is a bit nuts. You can talk to her but don’t ask any hard questions or she goes off the handle.
I saw the Greta piece yesterday and something about this story doesn’t seem to past the smell test.
If this daughter has been in trouble for years, they probably didn’t see her for weeks at a time - drug addicts hide from family - So they probably didn’t realize the baby was missing at first. However, how do you leave a baby with a drug addict anyway? I would turn my own child in if she/he were harming their child. The child’s welfare comes first over the selfishness of the adult -
And the worst part is that's the happiest scenario we can come up with. My fear is that mommy killed the child.
If the child were alive, you would think someone would have seen her and reported something to the cops by now.
I can’t imagine why no one has questioned the whereabouts and background of the boy friend she was supposedly living with at the time the child went missing.
I think its time to get out the waterboard for that mother. And Grandma too.
Seems like grandma is enjoying being a victim in front of cameras. If she is truly innocent about the whereabouts of Cayley, I sympathize with her. But no one goes on camera that often without knowing questions will be asked. She is a weird lady.
