Casey Anthony Joins TikTok to 'Advocate' for Daughter Caylee More Than a Decade After Being Acquitted of Murder

Casey Anthony, previously accused of murdering her 3-year-old daughter Caylee Anthony, has returned to social media, intending to take on the role of a 'legal advocate' with a new Substack and TikTok video series.

"This is my first of probably many recordings on a series I am starting," Anthony said in a March 1 video posted to TikTok. "I am a legal advocate. I am a researcher. I have been in the legal field since 2011, and in this capacity, I feel that it's necessary if I'm going to continue to operate appropriately as a legal advocate that I start to advocate for myself and also advocate for my daughter."

She expressed her intention to discuss legal issues "as a proponent for the LGBTQ community" and "women's rights."

Anthony gained infamy in 2008 after her toddler was reported missing by her mother, Cindy Anthony, who had not seen the child in a month. The child's remains were located months later. Casey, who was found guilty of lying to law enforcement, was not found guilty of murder and acquitted of those charges.

"For those of you who don't know, my name is Casey Anthony. My daughter is Caylee Anthony. My parents are George and Cindy Anthony. This is not about them. This is not in response to anything that they have said or done. ... The whole point of this is for me to begin to reintroduce myself," she stated in the video.

"Moving forward, the majority of what you will see will be me speaking in a professional capacity. My goal is to continue to help give a voice to people — to give people tools and resources they can utilize so they actually know where they can turn to," Anthony continued.

She promoted her Substack, stating that people would be able to email her about their "legal issues," and she would be able to provide advice and counsel via her blog posts. Anthony was prompted to create the videos after people "close to" her were "targeted and attacked recently."

"As a proponent for the LGBTQ community, for our legal community, women's rights, I feel that it's important that I use this platform that was thrust upon me and now look at as a blessing as opposed to the curse that it has been since 2008," Anthony said.

"I am proverbially standing in the light, embracing this piece, still going to keep my privacy intact...and I will explain in great detail why it's so important for people to protect their privacy. ... With the current climate in our country especially, it's that much more important."
