Casey Anthony TV Deal in the Works?
The Florida woman was acquitted in 2011 in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

The Florida mother whose trial in the death of her 2-year-old daughter back in 2011 captured the attention of the nation may soon be breaking her silence.
Casey Anthony was reportedly flown first-class by NBC to New York’s 30 Rock headquarters to speak with the network about a possible TV deal, Page Six is reporting. NBC isn’t confirming the meeting, which reportedly took place last week. Page Six notes that Anthony and Don Wood, who works for NBC in Florida, were seen waiting for a limo together outside of New York City’s John F. Kennedy Airport.
Anthony was 25 at the time she stood trial in the death of her daughter Caylee, 2. The child was reported missing in the Orange County area, sparking a well-publicized search that ultimately ended with the discovery of the toddler’s body in 2008.

Investigators charged Anthony with first-degree murder, manslaughter and aggravated child abuse in Caylee’s death. She was, however, acquitted on the more serious charges but convicted for providing false information to law enforcement. The jury seated in the case was selected in Pinellas County and was transported to Orange County to hear the evidence. Judge Belvin Perry Jr. drew the jury pool from the Tampa Bay area county because of concern the Orlando area would produce a tainted selection, a previous Patch story noted.

Anthony’s acquittal sparked outrage across the country and many in the Tampa Bay area took part in the Porch Lights on for Caylee Marie Anthony campaign launched on Facebook in the days immediately following the jury’s July 5, 2011, verdict.
Anthony now reportedly lives in the West Palm Beach area, but she is not a common site, the Palm Beach Post reports.
