Casey Anthony Received a Tongue Lashing From Judge

July 17, 2008

Casey Anthony, mother of missing toddler, Caylee Anthony, was officially charged with suspicion of child neglect, providing false official statements and obstructing a criminal investigation.

Orange County Florida Judge John Jordan denied bond for Anthony, telling her, "You left your two-year-old child with a person who does not exist at an apartment you cannot identify and you lied to your parents about your child's whereabouts. You cared so little about your child."

Casey stuck to her original statement, maintaining that she did not know where Caylee was, but that she knew she was alive.
