This is a news story that I have been following since day one. Nancy Grace has covered this story every single day since the end of July around the time Caylee went missing. It is often discussed nightly on at least one of the cable news shows.
I have done many posts on Caylee, so here are some links to my posts for those who are not familair or want to refresh their memory on this story:

More Photos In December, the state's attorney's office filed court papers indicating that prosecutors would not seek the death penalty in connection with the first-degree murder case.
In a notice of intent filed today, prosecutors said additional information has become available. The filing says that "sufficient aggravating circumstances exist to justify the imposition of the death penalty," according to the Orlando Sentinel.
A spokeswoman for Jose Baez, Anthony's attorney, said in a statement, "This is not a death penalty case. We will do whatever is necessary to defend Casey Anthony from the state trying to take her life. We already have death-qualified defense lawyers on our team and are prepared for a vigorous defense."
Anthony, 22, has pleaded not guilty in the death of her daughter, Caylee. She is scheduled to go on trial in October.
Frustrating, Curious Investigation Into Caylee Anthony's Disappearance
The child's remains were found Dec. 11, less than a quarter-mile from the home she shared with her mother and grandparents.
While looking for updates to this story I found this on the web: :)
Top 10 indicators you are too obsessed with Casey Anthony
If any of this applies to you, it's time to go cold turkey on Casey.
1. You read all 13,453 comments posted on today’s Casey story.
2. You typed 100 of those comments.
3. You typed them in capital letters.
4. You haven’t said goodnight to your kids in six months because bedtime is during Nancy Grace.
5. You know who Leonard Padilla is but not Joe Biden.
6. You just bought two hamsters and named them George and Cindy.
7. You get in shrill arguments on message boards with complete strangers about duct tape.
8. You called all your friends to vote in our online poll supporting the death penalty for Casey.
9. All your friends are starting to avoid you.
10. This list really upsets you.
I'm not as bad as that list but I will follow this story until Caylee gets justice. And even though I'm 99% sure because of all the evidence that Florida has leaked out that Casey is guilty, as a mother I still have that 1% of hope that a mother did not do this to her child.
