State: Casey Anthony "responsible" for daughter's death

Casey Anthony was found not guilty in July of the murder of her two-year-old daughter.

CASEY ANTHONY’S ACTIONS or lack of actions led to her two-year-old daughter’s death, Florida State has said.

The Orlando Sentinel reports that Florida’s Department of Children and Families has released a report that states that Anthony failed to protect her daughter Caylee Marie from harm “either through her actions or lack of actions”.

The investigation took three years and comes after Anthony was cleared of the charge of murdering her daughter.

The report notes that Anthony failed to report Caylee missing “in a timely manner” and left her in the care of a babysitter “for which she was unable to provide accurate information”.

However the report does not carry legal weight.

The 25-year-old was convicted of four counts of lying to investigators looking into the disappearance of her daughter in June 2008.

    I have so much respect for these women. Fair play to them.

    Respect ? In fairness they were a bit stupid in the way they protested. They just screwed themselves over.

    Bill Clinton was due to get involved until someone explained exactly what ‘pussy riot’ meant :-(

    Before you go to far defending them they also protested against gay/ lesbian marriage and the influx if immigrants. The more I read about the full extent of there beliefs the less support I have for them. In saying that I still have no love for Russia

    Mixed feelings on this one. On the one hand there’s freedom of speech and all that sort of good stuff – then on the other hand there’s a bunch of headline-seeking knob heads. If you kick a wasps nest – expect to get stung.

    The Russians – an inspiring people. Pity they killed off all the quality during their still born revolution.

    Frightening a gaggle of headscarf-wearing grannies does not make a person the next Martin Luther King. The only successful part of their protest was that the authorities very stupidly overreacted, something that seems to be dawning on them, hence the backpedalling. Russia deserves better activists than these….
