VIDEO: George Anthony speaks out
.....................................................................
Anthony said he can't drive down Suburban Drive, where the remains were found, because he's not ready to see the makeshift memorial left for his granddaughter. He doesn't know if he'll ever be able to drive further down Suburban drive near the area where a meter reader found Caylee Marie's remains.
Anthony said he is doing all right, at least as well as could be expected, under the circumstances. Lee, the Anthony’s son and brother to Casey, has moved back home to be with his parents.
George says his family has not yet made funeral arrangements for Caylee. They are still waiting for Casey's defense team to conclude their second autopsy. George was asked if he thinks the family will find any closure once they are able to have a funeral service for their granddaughter? George replied, "There is a hole in my heart big enough for a truck to drive through.” “I don't think I'll ever have closure. At this point I'm just hoping to someday be able to accept that Caylee is gone."
George also said he misses his daughter, Casey, as well. He would like to be able to visit Casey in jail, even if it’s just to say hello, hear her voice and see how she is doing. However, due to the video visitations, the family is uncomfortable visiting their daughter because of disclosure of the tapes under the "public records law". George said he and Cindy feel they would not feel at ease and would not be able to share their feelings or ask questions and get answers from Casey because of the video taping of the visits. Casey Anthony has asked for "no visitors" except for those from her defense attorney, Jose Baez, and his associates. She has neither received or accepted any visitors, other than Baez, since her last arrest on October 15, 2008. This arrest came as result of the grand jury indictment of first degree murder.

@Robyn:
It does break my heart. My heart aches.. I can not imagine what they must be going through and is has to be especially hard at the holidays. To have that precious child ripped from them. I can not say I feel for Casey. As much sensationalism Cindy has added to the story, I wouldn't be human to not "feel" something for her.She is a grandmother and I have no doubt that she loved Caylee. I think she wanted to "try again" with Caylee, to make up for mistakes with Casey. I mainly feel for George. Something tells me he has had a very hard life in this family. Thanks for your visit. ~Chrissy
