George Talks About “Distinct Odor”
New FBI interviews released Friday revealed the most damaging evidence in the case against Casey could come from her own father.
“The worst odor that you could possibly smell in this world. I’ve smelled that odor before. It smelled like a decomposed body,” George Anthony told investigators during a July 31 interviewGeorge is a retired homicide investigator. He said he would never forget the smell of human death and that’s what he said he smelled coming from his daughter’s car.
Eyewitness News obtained new video Friday showing the FBI interviewing George and Cindy Anthony.
George Anthony, in the video, appears to be agonizing over what he knows and what he doesn’t want to believe as a grandfather and father. One thing he seems sure of is that what he smelled in Casey’s trunk was not rotting pizza, but rather the smell of human decomposition and, he said, it emanated into their home.
Two weeks after Caylee’s disappearance came to light, George talked to the FBI for more than two hours. His emotional turmoil was raw when he talked about smelling Casey’s car.
”That distinct odor. That’s, that’s something you never forget. That distinct odor. I, I, I believe something was placed in the back of that trunk,” he said.
George told FBI Special Agent Scott Bolin the basketball-sized stain in the trunk also reeked and the agent said he expected to find out from the lab that there was human DNA in it.
”It all boils down to my daughter knows something. She won’t say anything,” George said.
Not for the first time, George blamed Casey’s defense attorney, Jose Baez, for keeping her quiet at Caylee’s expense. George told Bolin that he knows Casey is going away for a long time, but believes if she talks she can spare herself possible harm from inmates who target people who harm children.
”The answers are still very nearby,” Bolin said. “They may not be at the house with you right now, but they’re nearby.”
George was trying to piece together the disjointed details Casey was revealing, but came to the same conclusion investigators have: that her story makes no sense. He said he misses looking at the moon and stars with Caylee every night at bedtime.
”I’d give up my life for her,” he said.

GEORGE EXPECTS CASEY TO GET JAIL TIME
Anthony describes his daughter as a young woman who has been weaving a web of lies for months.
He also said he expects his daughter to get jail time.
The videotapes of FBI interviews done with George and Cindy Anthony in late July also reveal in the months leading up to Caylee’s disappearance, Casey Anthony was leading a life her parents claim they knew nothing about.
”She’s going to be going away. I know deep in my heart she is,” George Anthony said. “If there was some way I could get to her and talk to her…your life as you know it is over…”
George Anthony admits hiding from his wife and son the fact that sheriff’s detectives had found over 1,000 provocative photos of Casey retrieved from the family’s computers, cameras and online.

Video Released Of FBI Questioning Cindy Anthony
Cindy Anthony told FBI agents on Aug. 7 that Casey revealed to her brother, Lee, that the person who possibly took Caylee was “teaching her a lesson.”
“Lee has more information on why Zannie would double crossed her,” Cindy Anthony said. It’s unclear what kind of lesson or why.
At some point, Casey gave her family her password for the home computer. She changed the password to “timer55.”
“We have no clue what ‘timer55′ is,” Cindy Anthony said.
She went on to say that Casey told Lee that “timer55″ meant she had 55 days to be taught that lesson. It’s 55 days from June 14 to August 9 – Caylee’s birthday.
“We don’t know if anything is going to change now because who knew police were going to be involved in this,” Cindy Anthony said.

Video Released Of FBI Questioning George Anthony
FBI tapes released Friday reveal new information about Casey Anthony and her web of lies surrounding the disappearance of her daughter Caylee. Casey Anthony told lie after lie to her parents and even stole from her daughter’s own piggy bank.
Detectives told George that they were going to find out what happened to Caylee, regardless of whether Casey or the Anthonys got hurt in the process. During the interview on July 31, they made it very clear their focus was finding Caylee.During investigators’ interview with Casey Anthony’s father George in late July, he told detectives that Caylee would run to grandmother Cindy or George before running to Casey, because they were always there for Caylee.
George told investigators Casey stole money from them for years, sometimes forged deposits and even stole from Caylee’s piggy bank and her savings account. Investigators said Cindy was presenting the family through rose-colored glasses, because she could not accept the reality of what Casey had become and had a hard time facing the amount of money that Casey had stolen from them.
George also told detectives how Casey would not let him near her car trunk a week after Caylee disappeared. He wanted to retrieve the gas cans she had taken from his shed.
”She’s done some bad things. I started to get sick about it. I got sick. I thought I knew my daughter,” George told investigators. “Casey just blows past me. ‘Dad, I’ll get it.’ I said, ‘Casey, I’m capable of getting it out.’ Then she says, ‘Dad, I’ll get it.’ And she keeps pushing her hand back.’ Don’t come close, you know, type deal. Finally I get back to the back of the car. She opens up the trunk and she says, ‘Here’s your f****** cans.’”
George said his gut feeling told him something was wrong. Caylee was not with Casey that day, June 24, and she kept telling him Caylee was fine and was with the nanny.
George told detectives Casey added the job “nanny” to her own resume, which he called her out on because she had never worked as a nanny.
George also admitted he lost thousands of dollars on an emailed UK lottery scam, something he lied to his wife about, telling her instead he had gambled it away.
