If Casey Knocked on My Door I'd Turn Her Away: Dad

More tidbits from Dr. Phil interview released

By Evann Gastaldo, Newser Staff

Posted Sep 13, 2011 12:55 PM CDT

(Newser) – Casey Anthony isn’t welcome at her parents' home—at least not while George Anthony is there, he tells Dr. Phil McGraw. More bits of the Anthonys’ interview with Dr. Phil are trickling out, and the AP reports that while Cindy Anthony was slightly more forgiving of the couple’s daughter, she also acknowledged it would be difficult for Casey to come back home due to defense attorney Jose Baez's accusations that George molested Casey.

But Cindy has her own hopes and dreams for Casey, she admitted: "I would love to see her be happy either in a career or in a family setting. You know, I'd love for her to get married if she so chooses and, if she's healthy, to be able to be a mom again." She also wants to see her daughter get therapy and treatment and eventually “move on.” Click for more from the interview.

Dad: Here's How I Think Casey Killed Caylee

His theory: She pumped Caylee full of drugs so she could party

(NEWSER) - Dr. Phil has certainly squeezed a number of juicy revelations out of George and Cindy Anthony, but the money quote (or quotes) appeared in yesterday's show, as both parents shared their personal theories on how their daughter played a part in Caylee's death—or actually killed her. Mom, for her part, believes there's a kernel of truth to the drowning story put forth by the defense. "I buy the part that Caylee drowned, but I don't buy the circumstances surrounding the drowning."

Casey Anthony's Parents Open Up

Dr. Phil interviews Cindy, George on Caylee case

(NEWSER) - Casey Anthony’s parents are finally speaking out about their daughter’s case in an interview with Dr. Phil McGraw set to air tomorrow and Wednesday, and tidbits are trickling out, People reports. In a clip aired this morning on Today , McGraw asks Cindy Anthony about a post she wrote on MySpace 12 days before Caylee was reported missing that read, prophetically-seeming, "Caylee is missing." But Cindy had no idea Caylee was actually gone that day. She was "missing in my heart," she explains. "She wasn't missing physically. I wanted Casey to know how much she was hurting me. And I thought she was purposely keeping Caylee away from me." More»

Mom Blames Seizures for Casey's Odd Behavior

But when she learned Casey lied about Caylee she wanted to 'choke her'

(NEWSER) - Casey Anthony's loyal mom blames a seizure—and post-partum depression, and maybe even a brain tumor—for her daughter's chillingly cold behavior after the death of her toddler Caylee. "I'm not making excuses for her. I want to find out what's wrong with Casey. I know that there's something wrong," Cindy Anthony said in the first part of an interview with Dr. Phil McGraw, aired yesterday. How could "this young person who cared about everybody, loved kids and then all of a sudden something tragically happens to Caylee, and Casey completely goes off the deep end?" she wondered. Casey partied hard and got a tattoo reading "Bella Vita" after Caylee's death and before she admitted the little girl was "missing"—later testifying that the girl had accidentally drowned in the family pool.

Anthony Lawyer: Casey 'Did Not Kill Her Child'

Relationship with her parents is 'burned'

(NEWSER) - Casey Anthony’s lawyer is sure she’s telling the truth about Caylee. He believed her story “from the first time I met her,” he told the Today show. “She did not kill her child. Period.’’ Still, Cheney Mason sees a rocky road ahead for Anthony, saying of her relationship with her parents: “I don’t know that anything is ever beyond repair, but I would say odds are pretty strong that it is,” he said.
