Casey Anthony, who was acquitted of murder six months ago, has finally come out of hiding! Kind of. Sort of.
In this “vlog”—that’s a “video blog,” grandpa—Anthony gives the date as October 13, 2011. Sheesh, it doesn’t take that long to edit your video, lady.
In the video, Anthony tells us how excited she is about her then-new computer. She’ll be able to Skype now! Maybe she’ll even take some photos! “…I have something that I can finally call ‘mine,'” she sighs, adding how long it’s been since she’s had a computer or a phone.
She talks awhile longer how excited she is, um, about her computer. And the camera. And how she won’t have to talk to the dog anymore. Don’t get her wrong! She loves that dog! She adopted that dog! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE, DOG!
Anyway, The Hollywood Reporter transcribed most of the video:
Anthony does not talk about the trial or her current location, only saying that she plans to stay there “at least until the end of February.” She also mentions that she’s adopted a dog to keep her company.
“Now I in some ways have someone to talk to even when I am by myself so I am not bothering the poor dog who I have adopted and I love,” she added.
In the video, Anthony has short blonde hair and sports black-framed glasses. Despite being the center of a highly televised trial, she mentions that she still feels awkward on camera.
“I don’t know whether to look directly at myself or up,” she said. “It’s a little scary because I hate being on camera.”
Fascinatingly, Gawker isn’t too sure this video was ever really supposed to be seen. “This feels like an unintentional release to me, of a video meant for a smaller audience, or therapy, or something,” blogger Maureen O’Connor speculates.
The video doesn’t tell us much, but here’s what we do know:
– Casey Anthony looks like Kate Gosselin now (thanks, Gawker, for pointing that one out)
– Casey Anthony’s dog may be in danger
– Casey Anthony has a computer
If Casey Anthony started posting vlogs on the regular, you’d watch them, right?
And, in her now-copious spare time, she can kill more innocent children and hide the bodies, dontcha think?
I kept trying to figure out a “forgot her laptop in the trunk of her car for three months” joke, but it just never quite came to me. Also, uh, too gruesome.
It’s fascinating how boring a person who (probably) murdered their own child can be.
Reminded me of a poem by Leonard Cohen called “All There Is To Know About Adolph Eichmann” (Couldn’t find a good link for it.)
When did murderers become celebrities? Sick shit. I hope to not see stories about this person unless its news of her violent death.
ITA with Bunny.
I agree with Bunny. I am grossed out by the media being so excited for any news of her or her stupid location. She’s not a celebrity. She’s an insane sociopath who most certainly murdered an innocent child and will likely give birth to new victims soon (and if she didn’t kill her kid, then she definitely didn’t care about it being murdered). This is sick.
