Casey Anthony completed her first interview since her acquittal in the murder of her daughter Caylee. She tells interviewer Piers Morgan that she’s gone through hell and is ashamed but innocent. Click below for the video.
Casey Anthony says she’s “ashamed†of herself — but innocent of killing her 2-year-old daughter Caylee.
In her first interview since she was acquitted of murder, the Florida woman admitted she came off as “horrible†in some interviews before her trial.
“I’m ashamed in many ways of the person that I was,” she told CNN’s Piers Morgan Tuesday. “Even then, that wasn’t who I am. I’m 26 now, and I’ve gone through hell.â€
Anthony was accused of chloroforming and suffocating her daughter, then partying before reporting her missing a month later.
A jury found her not guilty last summer — and she says that was the right call.
“Obviously I didn’t kill my daughter,” she told Morgan.
“If anything, there’s nothing in this world I’ve ever been more proud of, and there’s no one I loved more than my daughter. She’s my greatest accomplishment.”
Anthony did not appear on camera, but Morgan related the comments she made in a 10-minute phone conversation — her only comments since a video diary she made in the fall.
She said she has no plans to capitalize on her infamy, and has been reading the “Hunger Games,” watching “I Love Lucy’ and avoiding the news and booze.
“I’m not making gazillions of dollars at the hands of other people, or trying to sell myself to anyone willing to throw a couple of dollars at me,” she reportedly told Morgan.
