I smell a cover-up!! I always had a feeling the parents knew more than they let on.
ORANGE COUNTY, fla. – The FBI is investigating an email, obtained only by Eyewitness News, and legal experts say what’s in it could land Cindy Anthony in a jail cell for obstructing justice.
If the FBI finds the email is legit, it could prove Cindy was deliberately hiding evidence from detectives and, while Eyewitness News investigates the possible cover-up, the state wants the Anthony family to shut up.
When Eyewitness News obtained an email from Larry Garrison (read the email), it was handed over to the FBI because of the explosive evidence inside. The email says Cindy gave investigators the wrong hairbrush when they asked for Caylee’s brush in late July to compare DNA from her hair to the hair they found in Casey’s trunk, where it smelled of death.

It’s about time someone stood up for all of the gays and lesbians in this community, especially regarding this issue. I believe that a child can be brought up with love, respect, and dignity in a gay relationship, just as they can in a heterosexual one. Why should they be discriminated against because of sexual orientation? All children deserve a good home and if it so happens to be with a gay couple, more power to them! Kudos to this judge!!
MIAMI – A judge on Tuesday overturned a strict Florida law that blocks gay people from adopting children, declaring there was no legal or scientific reason for sexual orientation alone to prohibit anyone from adopting.
Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Cindy Lederman said the 31-year-old law violates equal protection rights for the children and their prospective gay parents, rejecting the state’s arguments that there is “a supposed dark cloud hovering over homes of homosexuals and their children.”
She noted that gay people are allowed to be foster parents in Florida. “There is no rational basis to prohibit gay parents from adopting,” she wrote in a 53-page ruling.
Florida is the only state with an outright ban on gay adoption. Arkansas voters last month approved a measure similar to a law in Utah that bans any unmarried straight or gay couples from adopting or fostering children. Mississippi bans gay couples, but not single gays, from adopting.
The ruling means that Martin Gill, 47, and his male partner can adopt two brothers, ages 4 and 8, whom he has cared for as foster children since December 2004.
“I’ve never seen myself as less than anybody else,” Gill said. “We’re very grateful. Today, I’ve cried the first tears of joy in my life.”
He said the two boys have been practicing writing their new last names, and the older one said: “That’s what’s going to make us a family.”

On the cover of the new Rolling Stone magazine, out December 11th, Britney tells them that she “feels like an old person now.” No more late night partying, club-hopping, panty-dropping for her these days. In fact, she says she’s in bed by 9:30 pm every night.
Spears turns 27 on Dec. 2, the same day her album, Circus, hits stores. “This is going to be the album that cements her legend status,” says her manager, Larry Rudolph.
Indeed, the pop star has come a long way from her two trips to hospital psychiatric wards this year, the magazine says. After the last trip, in early February, her father, Jamie, filed for legal conservatorship so that he and attorney Andrew Wallet would oversee her finances and personal affairs.
Interviewing the star is a “rigorously micromanaged process,” according to Rolling Stone.

According to his soon-to-be ex-wife, Cynthia Rodriguez, Alex Rodriguez has his priorities - and they are not his children. In an email she sent to a confidant (obviously not much of one since the email has gotten out), she said
“My 6-foot-3, 220-pound soul-less, soon-to-be ex-husband is abandoning his kids on Thanksgiving to be with Madonna . . . She called and he ran on her command back to New York City . . . Gross!”

Updated information from WFTV. Turns out Padilla may be a bit shady.
ORLANDO, Fla. – For a few hours Thursday afternoon, searchers thought they’d found bones that could have been part of the remains of Caylee Anthony. But detectives quickly determined the evidence found by bounty hunter Leonard Padilla’s dive team was nothing but sticks and mud.
The detectives also cast suspicion on the find by asking Padilla to take a lie detector test.
Early Thursday afternoon, the dive team confirmed to Eyewitness News it had located several children’s toys inside a plastic bag in the Little Econ River including a plastic shamrock toy. The divers also claimed to have found three or four bones.
But Orange County Sheriff’s Office investigators said, in fact, there were no bones and the bag had nothing to do with the Caylee Anthony case. Additionally, the shamrock toy turned out to be a Gumby toy.
“There is nothing … at the scene that is credible or of a significant find,” said Capt. Angelo Nieves of the Sheriff’s Office (watch full statement). “Nothing that was discovered has been retained by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.”
FBI agents and sheriff’s office detectives arrived on the scene Thursday afternoon and sifted through the remains (video).

ORLANDO, Fla. – Divers searching for a sign of missing toddler Caylee Anthony on Thursday found a plastic bag with toys and small bones weighted down by bricks, bounty hunter Leonard Padilla said.
Inside the bag were two toys and bones the size of fingers and toes, diver David Badalai told WESH 2 News. There also was a shamrock, which Padilla said was a favorite symbol of mother Casey Anthony.
The bag, Balalai said, was held underwater by two bricks.
While law enforcement, including the FBI and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office headed to the scene, divers continued to pull items out of the water. The Sheriff’s Office plans a media briefing later this afternoon, but told WESH 2 News reporter Bob Kealing that the bag is of no value as evidence, and its lead investigator in the case left the scene.
From the air, Chopper 2 pilot Dan McCarthy said divers could be seen going down into drains and handing bags and other items up.
