The infamous tot mom Casey Anthony who is accused of murdering her 3-year-old child appeared in court last week with her fleet of high profile criminal defense lawyers. The issue in front of the judge? The indigency of the accused child killer. The defense of Casey Anthony wants the tax payers in the state of Florida to foot the bill for her defense.
After hearing arguments from Casey's defense and after questions were raised by the Justice Administrative Commission, Judge Stand Strickland ruled that Florida taxpayers will be paying for Casey Anthony's defense. Despite the fact that Jose Baez dropped a bombshell in court that ABC News paid tot mom Casey Anthony $200,000 in exchange for photographs and video of little Caylee.
Is this unethical for an attorney to get paid in this way? It has also been reported that Jose Baez attempted to sell an interview with tot mom Casey Anthony for $500,000. Baez also dropped a bombshell in court that he was in talks and negotiations about a possible book deal!
It has also been reported that NBC News has paid $5,000 for photo licensing fee's and George and Cindy Anthony were paid for their participation in a 48 Hours Mystery special on the case.
Despite all the money being funneled to the defense and family of Casey Anthony the tax payers are being forced to foot the bill for her defense!
