Who's Who in The Casey Anthony Saga

This is a work in progress, please accept appologies. I will be adding photos. If you have anyone else I may have overlooked, please leave in comments. It is 1:45am and I am stopping for the night. At least you have a cast of caracters, if you will , of everyone related to the case.

Allen, Sgt. John – Orange County Sheriff’s Office; Yuri Melich’s supervisor. When he pulled up all individuals with the name Zenaida Gonzalez in the DAVID system, Casey could not identify any of them as being the alleged kidnapper.

Angel, Karen – Registered nurse at Avante at Mount Dora Nursing and Rehab, where Casey Anthony’s grandfather lives. Provided sworn recorded testimony that she saw Caylee Anthony on June 15, 2008 (Fathers Day) at Mount Dora.

Anthony, Casey Marie – Caylee Anthony’s mother, born March 19, 1986. George and Cindy Anthony’s daughter. Lee Anthony’s sister. Attended but did not graduate from Colonial High School. Did not attend Valencia College, although she said she did. Habitual liar and known to steal from friends and family. Gave false statements to police upon investigation of Caylee. Stated she was employed by Universal Studios; however, she was fired April 24, 2006. Worked at Club Fusion as “manager of shot girls.”


Anthony, Caylee Marie – Missing 3 year old girl born August 9, 2005 (2 yoa when missing). Daughter of Casey Anthony. Grandchild of George and Cindy Anthony. Niece of Lee Anthony. Father unidentified at this time.


Anthony, Cindy – Married to George Anthony. She is Casey’s mother and Caylee’s grandmother. On July 16, called 911 and reported “smell of death” in car (white 1998 Pontiac Sunfire, FL tag G63XV) Washed pants that were in car.


Anthony, George – Married to Cindy Anthony. He is Casey’s father and Caylee’s grandfather. Former homicide detective (Ohio). Currently working at Lexus dealership in security (worked for security company).

Anthony, Lee – Casey’s brother, George and Cindy’s son, Caylee’s uncle. Girlfriend’s name is Mallory Parker.

Baez, José – Casey’s defense attorney.

Beasley, Charity – OCSO detective. Took possession of several items at Anthony home on July 16, 2008. Those items include computer cord, laptop, child’s toothbrush, black leather bag and belt, dinnerware knife, plastic hangers, blue crate, Dora the Explorer backpack, toy doll and various papers and binder. These were items that had been in the car. Cindy said that when she got in the car, there was a strong, unidentifiable odor. It was evident in the papers and the backpack. Regarding the dinnerware knife, Cindy said it appeared to be unused but had been washed since they found it. See page 180-182 http://www.orlandosentinel.com/media/acrobat/2008-08/41844520.pdf Conducted interviews of Tony Lazaro, Jeffrey Dale Hopkins II, Amy Huizenga, and Ricardo Morales.

Birch, Simon – Facility manager of the wrecking yard (Johnson’s Wrecker East) where Casey’s car was towed on June 30, 2008. After the car had been there a couple of weeks, he approached it and began to smell a foul odor. At the time, he did not pay further attention to the white Pontiac. On July 15, 2008, Birch was approached by Nicole Lett, who worked in the office, was dealing with two upset customers, George and Cindy Anthony. Cindy Anthony was trying to negotiate a discount for the towing fees; George agreed to pay the fees and provided the title and his driver license. As they walked, George Anthony mentioned that his daughter had been missing and that she would not allow him to see his granddaughter and has told several lies. When George opened the door of the car, a very foul odor came from inside. Mr. Birch recognized it as the same odor as had been in a car in which a man had committed suicide (his body had been in the car for about 5 days). When Mr. Birch said, “That’s rotten,” George did not reply. They opened the trunk in order to locate the source of the odor (flies flew out) and found a garbage bag, which Mr. Birch opened. Papers, a pizza box and maggots were in the bag. Mr. Birch threw the bag over a fence into the tow lot’s dumpster. George noticed the fuel gauge read empty and said he had a gas can in his car. He retrieved the gas can, apologized for his wife being upset, poured gas into the Pontiac and drove away.


Bloise, Gerardo – CSI investigator. The vehicle and the items listed above (see Beasley, Charity) were released to Gerardo (exceptions being laptop and cord; see Cawn, Sandy).

Bonilla, Rosanna – Resident of 301 Hillside, the seniors-only facility, who talked with LE during their search for Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez (1).

Bourgeois, Patrick – Said he went to high school with Casey and visited Casey in jail; Casey said she did not recognize him. Short visit. Frank Bourgeois also signed in. Could not find anyone on class list for 2001-2007. Still trying to find connection (maybe guy just wanted 15 minutes of fame).

Brown, Troy – Friend of Casey’s. Amy’s former roommate. Former boyfriend of Lauren Coppel. Troy met Casey for first time on his birthday (June 5, 2007) and became friends with her when she started dating Ricardo Morales. During discussion with sister about how much she got paid babysitting (he felt it was a low number), he said they should ask Casey since she had a nanny. Casey never gave him a straight answer. He never heard her refer to the nanny by name, nor did he see her make or take a call from the nanny.

Burner, Brian – Met with Appling Wells in parking lot of H&B Trading (his place of employment). Said he would be driving maroon Ford Taurus). Told her Casey borrowed a shovel possibly on July 16, 2008. He was doing yard work when Casey approached him and asked to borrow shovel to dig up bamboo root. She walked into Anthony garage (her car was in there which was unusual). When he was finished with his yard work, he went back to the front to see if Casey was finished. Her car was in the garage; nobody else seemed to be home (no other cars). She returned the shovel about an hour after borrowing. She then went to Burner house to get shovel, which had not been used since Casey had used it. See Bloise, Gerardo.

England, Melissa – Friend of Troy Brown’s from Virginia. Visited Troy July 2 through July 5 (but still there on July 23 or back to give testimony?). Because Troy had to work July 3, she spent the day with Casey the day she got her tattoo (possibly). The first thing Casey had said to her upon meeting her July 2 was “We should get a tattoo” to which Melissa responded “You’re crazy. I’m not getting another tattoo.” During the time they were together, there was no mention of Caylee, which was a disappointment to Melissa since she was in a relationship with a man who had a baby, and she was looking forward to talking to Casey about kids.

However, when LE tried to respond to this email address, they received a message that the domain was invalid (email does not exist). LE checked with

She was Caylee’s unpaid babysitter during her first 8 months (now and then when needed according to her testimony). Stopped babysitting Caylee in April 2006. She found out that Casey was not working, she was hanging out with friends, and that made her mad. She thought Casey was taking advantage of the situation (she took on-line classes and worked weekends, so she watched Caylee during the week until Cindy got home). She never met or heard of ZG. Lauren last talked with Casey in April to tell her that she (Lauren) was pregnant. On July 16, she got text message that Caylee was missing. She called Casey back, and Casey said she didn’t know who had taken Caylee, but that she had talked to Caylee yesterday, so she was okay. Note: Casey was fired from Universal in April 2006.

Gonzalez, Zenaida (1) (aka Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez) – This is the name of the alleged kidnapper according to Casey Anthony. Although Casey indicated that she had called Zenaida before she dropped Caylee off on June 9 and tried calling her when she tried to pick Caylee up, there are no such calls on her cell phone. Contrary to statements by Casey, Zenaida Gonzalez was never an employee of Universal Studios. Casey had stated that Zenaida was a seasonal employee.

Grund, Jesse – Engaged to Casey at one time. DNA test taken soon after Caylee’s birth showed he was not Caylee’s father . Cindy mentioned Jesse as the person who had taken Casey to the hospital earlier in the year for a seizure. He contacted LE before they called him. He said that Casey was a habitual liar. On June 24, he had received a call from Casey. She was trying to cheer him up after a recent job loss, and wanted to get together that weekend because Caylee was with the nanny, and they had gone to the beach for the weekend. After learning that Caylee was missing, he called LE to give statement because it contradicted what Casey had been telling everyone. Missing Persons Investigator Awilda McBryde later obtained a sworn statement from Jesse regarding this information. He has taken a polygraph and answers were satisfactory to LE. He is not considered a suspect but rather is a witness.

Hawkins, Mark – Active duty Marine stationed in 29 Palms, CA. He and Casey communicated on almost a daily basis via telephone and Internet. Casey said she was planning a trip to CA and she needed to tell him something. She had told her mother and brother and did not know how he would react to what she had to tell him. He had heard that Caylee’s father was deceased and that he was a security guard at Universal Studios.

Hopkins, Jeffrey Dale II – Went to high school with Casey Anthony (graduated 2003). Had not seen her for years until beginning of July when he ran into her while they were eating with separate parties at the Orlando Ale House (631 North Alafaya Trail). They had a brief conversation and returned to their meals. He has never met Caylee Anthony and no idea why Casey had called his parent’s residence. He does have son but never recommended any babysitter to Casey. Photo from MySpace page.

Hopkins, Jeffrey Michael – According to Casey, Jeff is one of the two people (see Lewis, Juliette) she told that Caylee was missing. Said he worked at Universal Studios with her.

It was through Jeff Hopkins that Casey says she first met Zenaida Gonzalez, around December 2004. ZG babysat Jeff’s son Zachary for approximately six months.

Casey talked about the babysitter but never by name, and no babysitter came to apartment to drop Caylee off or pick her up. Last saw Caylee June 13, 2008, and it was after he came forward with this statement that the Anthony family changed their story and told about Caylee visiting her great-grandpa at the nursing home.

Huizenga, Amy – Told Cindy where Casey could be found on July 15. She claims Casey picked her up at the airport around 1430 hours (2:30 p.m.) on July 15 in her (Amy’s) car. Amy had loaned Casey her car for the week she was gone. Amy claims Casey stole some checks and approximately $700. Amy lives with Ricardo Morales at 232 Glendwood Drive. Amy cannot recall the last time she saw Caylee. The address is somewhat important because it is across the street from one of the sites that Casey indicated was the home of Zenaida Gonzalez and her roommates (Raquel Farrell and Jennifer Rosa).

Irwin, Michael – OCSO Commander. Conducted investigation of Anthony backyard on July 17, 2008, with OCSOs and CSIs.

Casey has lived with him since June 9, 2008, and had mentioned several times that Caylee was with the nanny at Disney, Universal Studios, or the beach. Casey never gave any indication that Caylee was endangered or missing. Detective Gerald White later obtained a sworn statement from Anthony regarding this information. It was Tony who picked Casey up at the Amscot parking lot; she’d called him saying her car had run out of gas. She was outside the car with bags of groceries. He offered to look at car; she said her dad would take care of it. A couple days later he went on vacation (NY) and she told him story of what was wrong with the car (all lies since car was towed from Amscot). According to Nate, Tony’s temporary roommate, on June 27, 2008, Tony left between 11 a.m.-1 p.m. to pick up Casey after the car had run out of gas.

Hours later, he returned with his wife, Cindy Anthony, who appeared upset. She summoned Mr. Birch to speak with them, and when George presented her with the title, his driver license, and the cash, she completed the transaction.

This shows that Caylee is alive as of June 15, 2008; Casey stated that she had not seen Caylee since June 9, 2008.
