George Anthony, Father of Casey, Denies Krystal Holloway Affair Allegation

by at .

When the Casey Anthony trial began, her defense attorney, Jose Baez, threw out some stunning allegations against Casey's father, George.

Namely, that his prior abuse of Casey caused her to act erratically, and that he had an affair with a woman named Krystal Holloway who was helping him look for Casey's missing 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Anthony.

Tuesday, on the stand, George Anthony denied any infidelity.

"She was someone who volunteered at our site," he said. "I considered her a friend. She worked at our command center to help find Caylee."

Why does it matter to Casey Anthony's defense whether or not he had an affair with Holloway? Because of something he supposedly told her.

Holloway told police that during an intimate moment, George confided that Caylee's death was "an accident that snowballed out of control."

"Did you say that to her?" Baez asked the father of the accused.

"No," said Anthony. "I didn't confide with anyone during that time."

During the testimony, jurors swiveled their chairs towards George Anthony, watching him intently. Cindy Anthony shook her head in the gallery.

    I am interested to know what Casey Anthonys father does for a living ? From what I can see of the judicial system in this United States poor people don't usually get off someone must have money . Every part of me says she is guilty a good mother does not wait to call for help if her child is missing.

    How do they know that George Anthony or Lee were not searching for chloroform because they used it as part of sexual abuse?

    I think George Anthony sexually abused Caylee and didn't want her body found for awhile. He would have known that evidence of molestation would disappear as her body decomposed. Child sex abuse victims often do something called disassociation. It is a means of coping with the early sexual abuse and then later as a means of coping with other stress. Casey acted like a sex abuse survivor using disassociation. I'm suprised the defense didn't bring an expert on this to testify. All experts that treat trauma survivors are aware of this.
