Casey Anthony video surfaces; No Caylee mention

Casey Anthony, the Florida mother cleared in the killing her young daughter, Caylee Anthony, has been in hiding since her acquittal in July.

Now, she's surfaced on YouTube.

Pictures: Casey Anthony personal photos

The video was made last October. Her lawyer, J. Cheney Mason, confirms the woman in the video is indeed Casey Anthony, but angrily fumed at its "unauthorized" release.

Mason told the Orlando Sentinel that Anthony had been "maintaining some notes for her personal use and for future counseling purposes" but said she didn't release the video. He said her computer may have been hacked.

In the video diary-style recording, she talks about being lonely and about her new computer. She never mentions Caylee, but says her life is getting better since she was found not guilty. She adds that the recording is "the first of many."

Caylee Anthony was 2 years old when she was first reported missing in July 2008. She was found dead five months later.

You can watch the YouTube video below.

This woman - a.k.a. Casey Anthony obviously does not have a conscience nor sense of shame. She even has the audacity to come out trying to test water so that she could weigh in what the general public thinking of her after her wrongful acquittal. I for one am believing that she got away with murdering her own daughter. For that - she deserves to hide herself under the rock and should never come out of it.

Hope she is doing O.K. Never believed she did anything to her child. Don't like "circumstantial" evidence, my own view is she never came close to having the ability, backround or experience to completely cover up how the poor child died which created the guessing game at the trial. Since then reading about the serial killer and all the bodies found in a small beach town in New Jersey months and years after they were murdered, has reinforced my belief she is innocent. The monster that killed her child is still running around loose. That is scary.

you are correct on one point: the monster that killed her child is running around loose. a group of 12 jurors couldn't see the evidence that was presented to them, and set her free.

Let's see my child disappears for 5 minutes my heart is racing and panic sets in, she waits for who knows how long to report it.... You get out of life what you put in to it.... Oh and she admits her daughter was missing for 31 days or accidental drowned.... So no one killed her is what Casey would like everyone to believe she had nothing to do it but ultimately most of us can see past her out laddish bull$hit....

I can understand the outrage some feel, and I agree that even though she was found not guilty - it doesn't mean she didn't do it. It just means the jury didn't think the prosecution proved its case. But for people to get to wound up is only hurting themselves. I don't think Casey Anthony has a conscience, so all the frothing at the mouth and condemnations is falling on deaf ears. She doesn't care. Personally, I refuse to get too riled up, as she's not worth it.

This is a sick *****. She talks in circles. She may have been judged and found Not Guilty here on Earth but best believe, God has a bigger judgement for her.
Who really cares if she has a computer with a camera? I personally would rather not look at her sick face. If her life was getting all that great, why don't she come out of hiding? Because she knows someone will make her pay for what she did to that precious Baby that's why!!!!!!
