Casey Anthony Released from Jail

NewsCentral Producer

Casey Anthony is a free woman Sunday as cameras followed her out of the Orange County Jail in Orlando, Florida just 12 days after she was acquitted of murder for the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

Anthony and her attorney Jose Baez got into an SUV and drove away without speaking to reporters.

It's unknown where Anthony will be staying, but one attorney said Friday that Anthony was scared to leave jail.

Protesters rallied outside the jail to express themselves.

"To protest that this killer is getting out. that she had such a jury trial that was such a joke. a six-year-old would have made a more conscious effort and decision than what they actually did," said one protester in Florida.

"People need to respect the judicial system and respect due process and just let her and her family live their lives," says a man in support of the jury's verdict.

Anthony was acquitted of murder on July 5th, but was found guilty on four counts of lying to police.

She was given credit for time served.
