Acquitted infanticidal mother Casey Anthony is in the news again. This time, she’s advertising her new personal video diary in an attempt to prolong her 15 minutes – now turned into way too long- of infamy.

Anthony talks about her current life – at the time of the video, this was still October 2011 – and the issues and changes she’s had to go through:

“It’s just a little surreal how much things have changed since July,” she starts, “and how many things haven’t changed.”

She mentions that things are finally starting to look up for her, and that they can only get better. She finally goes on about how much she hates looking at the camera all the while squeezing a few extra seconds of air time before finally ending the video.

Anthony was acquitted of the murder of her 2 year old daughter Caylee last July based on inconclusive evidence on the matter of death of the little girl. The prosecution had sought the death penalty for Casey, but because no evidence could have been provided on the matter of death of the baby, Anthony was acquitted of the more serious charges and even found herself completely free based on time already served. Casey Anthony never testified during the trial.

Florida taxpayers will continue paying the fee’s for Casey Anthony’s prosecution.

Taxpayers began picking up her legal expenses in March 2010 after she ran out of money and was declared indigent by the courts. The state has already reimbursed her defense lawyers for $119,000 in expenses, according to the Justice Administrative Commission. Another $5,800 bill from the defense is pending, records show.

Prosecutors have not finalized their overall expenses but have identified at least $91,000 in costs, State Attorney’s Office spokeswoman Danielle Tavernier said. Still being calculated are the costs of the massive, three-year police investigation that began in July 2008.

Casey Anthony was convicted of misdemeanor charges of lying to detectives during the investigation and sentenced to the maximum four years in jail. Anthony has indicated she will appeal her convictions and is requesting that the state continue to fund her defense.

An August 25 hearing is scheduled for Judge Belvin Perry to decide what portion of the trial and investigative costs Anthony should bear. After that, the question will be whether she is able to pay up.
