There is little doubt that the death of Caylee Anthony stirred emotions not just across the country, but also world wide. Big media was all over the story like gravy on rice. For months (seemingly years) it was the food ticket for the likes of Nancy Grace, Jane Valez Mitchel, and a host of other dubious types. “Breaking News†Nancy would tell the audience, “Tonight we have an exclusive interview with someone that might be related to a guy that once helped Tot Mom Casey Anthony change a tire on the Sunfire car at the very center of the investigationâ€.
It was ‘twaddle’ then, but it was ‘twaddle’ that got the ratings up.
Alas, the wonderful world of Mass Communicating (Watch O’ Brother) polarized an entire segment of the populous. Camps started to form, and much like real world conflicts, partnerships, infighting, and mayhem ensued. Casey was a killer espoused one side, George did it, says another fraction. It was the damn meter reader, it was the man in the moon! Bit by awful bit, these folks have formed themselves into two basic camps, Casey is innocent, or, Casey is guilty.
For quite some time I have been watching the fun unfold. Jeff Ashton’s book merely poured gas on the whole deal. I have yet to talk to an attorney that has anything good to say about how the prosecution handled the case.
This is all water under the bridge. You cannot undo what has been done.
A new Casey Anthony book is now available. As I have no ‘dog in the fight’ I have no interest in getting involved. For that reason I will not mention the title, the author, or the little hate group. But it is fun.
Amazon provides the ability for people to upload reviews of books. The important word here is ‘review’, to me that implies that you have actually read it. So lets take a look at some of the reviews:
Just wanted to tell everyone that I would not ever, ever, ever read this book even if someone payed me thousands of dollars to read it.
Note to reviewer, you likely should keep your day job, the correct spelling is ‘paid’.
Absolutely horrified Amazon that you are contributing to this garbage. That your company has been blindsided and fooled by this woman is horrifying! I certainly hope you checked your facts as to who the real author of this book is and that you did your civic duty in contacting the Florida Probation Board to advise them that this waste of space does have a job and is making money from your company’s sale of this book.
Or this one:
A load of garbage, not worth the paper it’s printed on.Just another bottom feeder trieing to become famous off the murder of an innocent baby.
As far as I can tell the book is only available in electronic form, so no paper was hurt.
Do I think Casey Anthony is guilty? Yes I do. She is the white poster child for OJ Simpson.
The bigger question is why does a marginal blogger feel the need to whip up the troops to trash an author? One of the more delightful comments:
Make no mistake this woman could do great harm to an unsuspecting family as well as get unsuspecting real crime enthusiasts into some very grave trouble.
I can’t wait to watch the next episode. A friend of mine wrote a great Civil War book. It was unique in that it relied of the ‘reportage’ of the northern New York Times and the southern Charleston Mercury. Two very different views of the same battles.

I believe the reviewer should have taken some time to research the “author” of that stupid little pamphlet – then “blog.” Correcting someone’s spelling on a comment left somewhere is tasteless
How funny you people won’t waist time reading it , but you’ll waste your time leaving comments ????? HELLO ….
Does that make you feel good judging Casey by calling her all these names? What do you think you people accomplishing by putting her down (that’s putting it mildly ? Are you bettering yourself in anyway ? are you making the world a better place by putting more hatred in the world ? Let Casey move on with her life an be happy. All this hatred towards Casey with all theses evil comments on other sites is just promoting more HATE in to the world we do not need anymore of that . THE MEDIA HAS CAUSED THIS MOB JUSTICE > and its wrong .Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., once said “Injustice anywhere is the threat to justice everywhere.” And there is no greater injustice than throwing a person in prison or death row for a crime that cannot even be proven to have been committed just to satisfy a mob’s calls for “justice”.BOTTOM LINE IS WE DON’T NEED MORE NEGATIVITY BROUGHT INTO THIS WORLD, WE ALL KNOW WE HAVE ENOUGH OF THAT HERE ALREADY AN ALL THIS HATE TOWARDS CASEY WHAT IS THAT ACCOMPLISHING? NOTHING , EXCEPT TAINTING YOUR OWN SOUL WITH HATRED WHICH MEANS YOUR PLAYING IN THE DEVILS PLAYGROUND . ALL THOSE PEOPLE OUT THERE LEAVING HATE MAIL FOR CASEY, I WOULD RECOMMEND FINDING YOUR INNER SELF AN BUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AN FIND HAPPINESS WITHIN YOURSELVES .CASEY TOO IS ONE OF GODS CHILDREN! WE NEED MORE LOVE , COMPASSION , AN UNDERSTANDING IN THIS WORLD .GOD IS GOOD AND GOD IS GREAT SO LET EVERYONE BE AT PEACE AN HAVE FAITH .THANK YOU p.s I could care less about my spelling
Simon I could not agree with you more. You think Casey Anthony is guilty of murdering Caylee. (Caylee was one of God’s children, but Casey put an end to that.) I agree with you Simon in that I think Casey Anthony is guilty.
I pray that any book does not line Casey’s pockets with any of Caylee’s blood money. (Although I’m certain Cindy has already given Caylee blood money to Casey.) I believe the money Dr Phil paid to Cindy and George Anthony is all dripping with Caylee’s blood.
I thought that I had made it plain. i have not read the book, neither do I have any intention of doing so. I know nothing about the author nor do I wish to. That was the reason that I did not publish the title, author name, or any other information.
The purpose of the article was more to point out the insanity of Amazon publishing ‘reviews’ by people that obviously had not read the book in question. Amazon would do themselves a great service by changing the word ‘reviews’ to ‘Comments’.
I personally hate child killers, therefore I really hate CONVICTED FELON, SKANK, PATHOLOGICAL LIAR, NARCISSISTIC, BABY KILLER CASEY ANTHONY. I can’t wait for her probation to be up and to get her despicable self out of the USA, preferrably far, far away. It will be a blessed day when that happens. BTW, whatever happened to the mystery person who was going to divulge the mystery of the Casey Me Me Me video logs and other stuff. I don’t remember his name, but I think it is the lawyer who does the blog talk radio with Simon. He had a client who was gonna talk about it, but they had to wait like 4 weeks and it was due to something with the National Enquirer. Did I miss the show where this lady was on?
Joe Coffee – LoL. And, correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this blog part of that wonderful world of “mass communication”?
In response to ashleylynne….Are you kidding me…! `let casey live her life and be happy….“ Well I guess we should let all the guilty people out of jail and “let them be happy`then. Let`s just not judge anybody`s actions in the world and just let every sick psycopath do whatever they want to whoever they want. I guess that is the utopia ashlylynne wants. Obviously Casey killed her daughter. Anyone with any commonsense knows that.Jury`s always let good looking people go free. That is the real injustice here. Anyone who says we should let casey anthony be free and happy is also condoning the death of her daughter.
I do not believe I have ever heard the phrase “Gravy on Rice” before. Oh well, at least you are on this story like white on rice.
The justice system should learn at least one thing from the OJ and Casey A. trial and that is that jurors should be required to have an IQ test before their allowed to serve.
I can’t wait for the book. I plan to read it.
I for one would like to know who is paying for her living expenses. Rent, food,electricity, etc.
Casey will get hers on judgement day. God will take care of her.
