Casey Anthony has been in hiding for several months now after the intense and highly publicized trial regarding the death of her 2-year old daughter, Caylee. Although she had to remain in Florida after the trial because of unrelated check fraud charges, no one knew exactly where she was until now.
Zenaida Gonzalez, the woman Anthony named as her daughter’s kidnapper when police first began investigating Caylee’s disappearance, has filed a suit against Anthony for using her name in association with the toddler’s death. Anthony initially claimed that Gonzalez was a babysitter and had kidnapped Caylee, but in reality the two had never even met. It was brought out during the trial that the story was fabricated, but Anthony still hasn’t said why she made up such a story during a crucial investigation. She was later acquitted of the charges related to her daughter’s death.
Investigators working for Gonzalez tracked down Anthony in order to serve her papers for the lawsuit, and she will likely have to take the stand next January, something she refused to do during the first trial.
“Ms. Gonzalez is happy to hear that Casey Anthony finally will be held accountable just like everybody else,” says her attorney.
