WHO EMAILED SPLASH??????

YAHOO NEWS POSTED AUGUST 4,2011 1:00 PM

Yesterday, photos and video of Casey Anthony hanging out, checking her cell phone, and shopping at Old Navy surfaced on celebrity gossip site TMZ.

Today, The New York Post has the same photos, which show Anthony in a red Ohio State baseball cap, glasses, and faded jeans, strolling about an Ohio town—which eagle-eyed online commenters have identified as Columbus. (Anthony has several relatives in the area, according to TMZ.)

The photos and video were taken by celebrity photo agency SplashNewsOnline.

At first, speculation that TMZ had worked in conjunction with Anthony’s legal team to pay for the photos ran rampant. But The New York Post credits the photos to the news agency that took them, SplashNews, meaning the agency is the owner of the photos.

So the question is, how did SplashNews happen to know that Anthony was prowling around Ohio? Did one of its long-lens "photojournalists" just happen to be in town?

“Oh God, no,” says someone familiar with the workings of celebrity photo agencies. “There’s no one in Ohio.”

Often, photo agencies get tips from regular people about where a celebrity (or in this case, a notorious but acquitted murder suspect) is hanging out. SplashNews has an email address dedicated to this very thing on its site. So did someone in Ohio give Splash a tip that Anthony was in town?

Possible. But it’s also possible that Anthony’s team worked with Splash to sell photos of her—staging the Ohio walkabout. “That happens all of the time,” says the insider. “If she worked out a good deal, she’d get half or 75% of the [money for the] photos each time they were sold. How else is she going to make money?”

A few observations that make the photos and video somewhat suspicious in terms of being unwitting on Anthony's part: For one, the videographer and photographer who caught Anthony never approach her for a comment. Wouldn’t they have run into her face and begun screaming questions like every other paparazzo does?

Also, check out the video where Anthony shops at Old Navy. She’s supposedly in fear for her life yet she chooses a store with very large front windows, and she stays by them for a long time while she rummages through the clothing racks.

Then there’s that outfit. “Her disguise doesn’t look very disguisy,” says the insider. Okay, she’s wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, but why didn’t she dye her hair or cut it off? How about a wig? Maybe a moustache?

And let’s not forget that she’s completely alone. Isn’t this a bit imprudent for someone with so many enemies? Wouldn’t she at least have one person with her, to call police if something happened?

Here's a thought: Could someone have hacked into her phone messages and found out where she is? Happens! "Nah," says the insider. "You need to be a big company to do something like that, with a lot of money."

People online are questioning whether the woman in the photos actually is Anthony or a look-alike. Much of this speculation is fueled by the fact that Anthony looks about ten pounds heavier than she did while on trial. The insider isn’t bothered by this sudden weight gain.

“Are you kidding? She probably lost weight while she was worried for her life. I’d pig out now too.” Plus, the insider ads that a photo agency wouldn’t sell fake pictures. “If that got around, no one would deal with them anymore.”

So how much could Anthony and her team have made if they had anything to do with this? The insider thinks up to half a million, especially since these were the first photos of her. “She has to capitalize now. In a couple of months, people won’t give a sh*t.”

The insider is also sure that bigger deals will follow, most likely with a big tabloid: “It won’t be a legit organization.”

While taking photos of Anthony and even splitting the cash with her isn't illegal, many feel it's immoral. Says the insider: “Um, hello. So is all of the other stuff that goes on. It’s hard to stay ethically clean when your living depends on these things.”

I’ve emailed SplashNews for a comment and will update this post if I get one.

BLOOD MONEY PAID BY SPLASH

A friend of mine from the E-Lynchers page just posted an article he found on Yahoo News about Spash Apparently they have no problem paying out millions of dollars to the Spawn of Satan and her freak show defense team. Blood money from the victim in this case Cay lee Marie Anthony. What kind of bottom feeders would pay a baby killer for photos. Especially in the millions of dollars. One has to wonder how much of this blood money is being pocketed by the defense team aka BOZO and the BILL HILLY. This entire case has been about nothing but money. Right from the start the Anthony's started cashing in. The freak show defense team went out of their way to make this a media circus. When the verdict came in it was like one big fat PAYDAY to the Spawn and her Defense team. Is it ethical for her defense team to be cashing in on millions? Where all the lies from this Defense team for profit. All I hear from them is telling the public aka the E-Lynchers to "get over it" The Jury has also cashed in and they are asking for outrageous amounts of money for interviews. Yet, they have chose to remain in hiding since the verdict was announced. The Spawn surely got a jury of her peers alright. Her Attorney We will just call him BOZO has quite a record himself. One of his charges for writing bad checks. He was denied admittance into the Florida bar and the Florida Supreme Court because of his criminal background and his failure to pay court ordered child support. 8 years later he again goes to the Florida bar seeking acceptance in the field of Law. The Florida Bar reversed their decision and allowed him in. He was admitted to the Florida bar in 2006. Since 2006 he has had at least 6 complaints filed against him with the Florida bar. He was sanctioned jury the Casey Anthony murder trial for violations of Discovery and the Prosecution requested he be sanctioned for that. It was We the peoples thought that he was suppose to appear in front of the Florida bar at least that is what was said in the court room. The public is supposed to just deal with this and go away. However , it is impossible for the public to go away when they see so much injustice not only from the verdict, but from the freak show defense team. The Spawn left Orange County Jail with only $500.00 in her pocket. She was whisked away on a plane to an unknown destination who paid for that. Is it ethical for her defense attorney aka Bozo to be paying her expenses and if he is doing this what would the reason be? Maybe the millions he just received from Splash for the first photos of the Spawn shopping in Toledo Ohio at Old Navy. Did they personally email Splash to let them know where to meet them at? Splash works through an email system and since the Defense is the only ones who truly know where she is how do you think they found out??? Why is Jose Baez being flown to New York in a airplane paid for by NBC to participate in Bidding Wars for which network can come up with the most cash to get an interview. The Spawn was in hiding so bozo was the one running that cash cow. Do we have any ethics or morals left in this society. Since when did we condone Attorneys and Jurors making a huge profit off a Capital Murder case. Has the world gone totally mad? Where is the Florida State bar when all this hush money for blood is going on.? Is the legal system that flawed that this Attorneys can go out into public and throw it into the public face.? The public is angry of course they are. This case was the most horrific case I have ever personally witnessed with all the clown antics going on right in the court room for the whole world to see. A defendant on trial for duct taping her baby and riding around with her in the trunk for days. Then puts her into trash bags and throws her in a garbage dump. Does this defense team truly believe the American public is stupid? Are we supposed to pretend that this has not happened. Are we too supposed to forget about the victim Ca ylee Marie Anthony who would have turned 6 years old on August 9 of this year. It is apparent the Spawn and her family and this outrageous defense team have clearly moved on. The public outcry about this verdict is loud and clear. The jury made its decision and they have to live with it. But, to sit back and watch the Spawn and her Attorneys make a profit of it. This only adds salt to the wounds of the public. The public has an attachment to this victim and they seem to be the only ones who have not forgotten about Cay lee Marie Anthony. She was a 2 year old child who did not deserve to die in such a way that we as humans cannot begin to comprehend. Tossed away in garbage bags like she was nothing but the trash that existed in the Spawns trunk. She forgot to take out the trash but she remembered after that awful smell in her car appeared she remembered to dump Cay lee on the side of the road into a swamp where she used to buy her pet hamsters. It is beyond comprehension that this Defense team goes to the media and points their finger at the public calling them E-Lynchers as if they are nothing, but a group of animals with a vigilante mentality. Vigilante feelings only come out in people when there is a severe break down of the legal system. When people know in their hearts that the justice system has failed. The need and the want to make things right begins to exist. I am appalled at the networks and the book publishers who have offered millions to this baby killer. The evidence was there and yet she was not convicted and that is something we can never change. Social networks have popped up everywhere and the word is out. This verdict was unfair and unjust and we are just plain angry about it. Then to sit back and watch the millions of dollars that are on the table and defense attorneys being flown around the world to compete in bidding wars to see who wants to pay the most to interview their client. They continue to file petition after petition to quash just law suits that have been filed to make the Spawn accountable . Not guilty does not by any means mean Innocent they can try to throw a blanket over our heads and tell us to go away. But, we are not going anywhere. Social media has managed to create Cay lees law to prevent parents from failing to report their children missing. The Spawn never reported her child missing and after 31 days her mother is the one who reported Ca ylee missing. Numerous petitions have been filed at change .org to make change to a system of justice that has spiraled out of control. Should jurors be allowed to profit because they served on a capital murder case? Should the Feds of stepped in and recharged this Spawn for her crimes against her child and society. Should the search teams be repaid for the hours they spent looking for a little girl named Cay lee marie when the defense team walks into the courtroom and tells the world they knew Cay lee was dead from day one. These teams spent thousand of dollars and man power searching for a child that was never missing according to the Spawn and her Clown defense team. Other children who were legitimately missing were ignored because these search teams felt the need to find Cay lee...Where is Cay lee.?? her mother tells the world she was kidnapped and she is out there somewhere and someone needs to find her. Zanny the fake nanny has her and we want her back. What about Roy Kronk thrown under the bus for doing a good thing and finding this child's body. what about bozo telling Dominic Casey if he were to find Cay lees body to call him and not the police. WHY? Who in this trial was not sacrificed so the defense team did not have to blame their client? What about all the police hours and money that was spent on this investigation? How shocked were the police when bozo opened his mouth in that court room slapping them in the face with his remarks about a drowning? How many thousands of dollars did the tax payers of Florida pay out for this Spawns defense? Is the Spawn not responsible to repay the State of Florida. Is she not responsible to pay the search teams. What about Zanny the nanny and the life she has lost out on because of the Lies that came out of the Spawns mouth? And last but not least what about a 2 year old little girl who now lays in a Vase in the Anthony home forever silenced? The main question here is what about our victim CAY LEE MARIE......This case was never about a murdered or missing child. This case was about MONEY. Millions of dollars to be pocketed by the Spawn and her crooked defense team off the blood of a child. That my friends is the only Fact in this case. Is it ok for bottom feeders like SPLASH to pay MILLIONS of dollars to any of these blood suckers? That is the true question of the day. Don't point your finger at the public and tell them to go away. Stop the madness and BOYCOTT them.
