Jose Baez Shopping Casey Anthony Interview to Networks
by Free Britney at .Casey Anthony's lawyer Jose Baez is reportedly at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in New York City, holding meetings with all of the major TV networks.
NBC, ABC and CBS are all competing for the first interview with the accused child murderer, and you can bet HUGE dollar amounts are involved.
Sources connected with the negotiations say there is a "big price tag."
The networks don't technically pay for interviews, however, they can offer to license photos and other material and pay whatever amount Baez asks.
NBC, which is paying for Baez's hotel room, looks like the frontrunner, but ABC is in the game, while CBS "is a distant third" to land the sit-down.
Baez spent part of last night in the hotel bar with famed lawyer Mark Geragos, whose clients include or included Michael Jackson, Susan McDougal (Whitewater), Greg Anderson (BALCO), Winona Ryder, Scott Peterson and Chris Brown.
Geragos, who is well-versed in high-profile cases and tricky negotiations such as this, reportedly gave Baez some advice in reaching a deal.
Whether or not Casey Anthony is back in Florida already, it looks like she'll only be in hiding - and flat broke - for so long.

To add a few educated people to the mix of a jury is an excellent idea and would prevent the type of corruption the framers probably were trying to avoid by using a jury of peers. I hope the media will pursue the jurors so we can get a better idea of their thought process. If it becomes clear that they lacked the capacity to understand the legal concepts, it may help to change the system. Again, I hate to see someone guilty go free, but I am truely afraid of how many innocent people are convicted because our jury system is flawed. It seems impossible to change, but any ideas on how to start?
Casey never did want a baby and one of her friends said she would adopt it, but Cindy prevented it. Casey and her boyfriend called Caylee, "snot head" "the kid", the "Offspring". Casey was tired of taking care of Caylee, and never getting to see her boyfriend, as much as he wanted. Casey knew something had to be done, so she killed her, smothering her. She was happy and went partying. Caylee ib the trunk, and thrown in the bushes to decompose. This woman was rid of her problems when she killed her baby. Waiting 31 days, and telling lies. This woman is not just a murderer, she is a devil.She sure should not get any money off the killing, and also neither should her evil lawyer. He told so many lies and never proved any of them. What a mess, and now she is going to get off serving probation after jail, which is the way it should be, not while in jail. What a circus.
Gretta, EXACTLY. You would think our judicial system would learn that a jury of peers, is not that. A more professional jury would have someone or two who have studied the judicial system and have a doctorate in that judicial system. They would become professional jurors, to add to the mix of lay people. Someone who proclaims prior to the trial " I can't judge people" must be excused from duty. Judging people is exactly what the jury is for. Guilty or not guilty is judgmental. Explaining that reasonable doubt and circumstantial evidence are both equally as important in a decision would render a more true verdict. It is sad to see someone like Casey Anthony be found not guilty because of jury incompetence.
I hope the media will still be interested in this story when Judge Perry releases the jurors names. I really feel it is important to know how they decided this case. I don't think stating "the system worked" is accurate and furthermore, nothing is perfect. Just because it is our system, does not mean it can't be improved. Remember: If confustion or intellect was the reason for this decision, then how many innocent people may be sent to prison because the jury does not understand the law?
This jury proved our system is just not the best. How could 6 people who thought she was guilty of manslaughter change their minds. Think about that. 6 people and they ALL agreed suddenly she was innocent? Not possible. They have a lot to answer for. Judge Perry can't hide them forever. Their mistake allowed a murderer free to do it again. Watch for Judge Perry to allow her to already have served her probation. He seems to be her biggest fan. Probation should only be served AFTER YOU HAVE BEEN RELEASED. We know she talked to other prisoners, THAT IS A BREAK IN PROBATION. She was not visited by a probation officer, another break. One crime has nothing to do with the other. pimp
