Disgraced Mother Casey Anthony Files for Personal Bankruptcy

By John Clark

Casey Anthony, the Orlando, Florida, resident who was recently acquitted of killing her young daughter, is reportedly filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, according to a report from the Los Angeles Times.

Sources say the 26-year-old woman, whose whereabouts are currently being protected thanks to a judicial order, is more than $790,000 in debt, and only has $1,000 worth of assets to her name.

Casey Anthony Files for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

This Friday, the same day she learned that a Florida appellate court had overturned two of her four misdemeanor convictions for lying to investigators, Casey Anthony filed for bankruptcy in a Florida court.

Sources note that Anthony?s finances have been in dire straits since her prolonged criminal trial, which was a result of allegations that Anthony had killed her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

In December 2008, state officials found Caylee?s body inside a trash bag near Anthony?s home. After a lengthy and very public trial, Anthony was eventually acquitted, but she was convicted on four counts of lying to investigators.

After her acquittal, Anthony immediately turned to media outlets to earn back the money that had been depleted by her criminal defense.

According to sources, ABC News paid Anthony $200,000 for a series of personal photographs, but this money went quickly as Anthony attempted to repay debts to state officials and her own defense team.

Unfortunately for Anthony, she also owes a significant amount of money to the Internal Revenue Service and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

To make matters worse, Anthony has been unemployed for four years, has no current income, and only owns a small collection of relatively inexpensive jewelry, sources say.

Anthony Faces Multiple Lawsuits and Assorted Debts

The laundry list of debts was reason enough for Anthony to call a bankruptcy attorney, but sources note that the reluctant celebrity is also facing a horde of lawsuits.

For example, a Texas horseback search group has sued Anthony for her allegedly false claims that her daughter was still alive. In addition, a woman who shares the same as the fake babysitter Anthony invented during the criminal investigation has also filed a lawsuit for defamation.

During one portion of the investigation, Anthony created a fake babysitter and claimed she had kidnapped her daughter.

This allegation, however, was denied at her trial, and Anthony instead claimed that her daughter had accidentally drowned in the family pool, according to the Los Angeles Times.
