Casey Anthony Latest News: First Appearance Since Jail Release in New Court Case

Casey Anthony was back in court Saturday morning for a defamation lawsuit brought against her. She gave evidence by video and wore a disguise consisting of a wig, sunglasses and a baseball cap.

The lawsuit has been brought by Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez. During the police investigation into the disappearance of Anthony’s two-year-old daughter Caylee, Anthony lied and blamed a fictitious nanny of the same name.

During the court hearing, Anthony’s lawyer invoked the Fifth Amendment a number of times; which grants the right not to self-incriminate oneself.

Anthony joined by video from a secret location in Florida wearing a Philadelphia Philllies baseball cap, as well as a pair of “gigantic sunglasses,” according to The Daily Mail. She also wore a dark-haired wig to complete what numerous reports are describing as a very peculiar disguise.

Anthony was questioned for about 45 minutes but most answers were blocked by the Fifth Amendment.

Fernandez-Gonzalez's lawyer John Morgan claimed that Anthony came up with the name of the fictitious nanny after both women visited the same Florida apartment complex on the same day.

According to ABC News, she claims that Anthony’s lies caused her to lose her home and job because people thought she was involved in Caylee's abduction.

Fernandez-Gonzalez received death threats and phone calls in which she and her children were threatened, her lawyers claim.

Saturday’s appearance by Anthony was the first time she has been seen since she was released from jail in July.
