erasure poem:
‘One of the Most Hated
Women in America’

Janet Kuypers
3/28/17

These are chosen words spoken by Casey Anthony
after she was charged with the murder of her infant
daughter Caylee (for which she was later acquitted).

she keeps a lonely,
guarded life now

in her words,
“I was in confinement
for twenty-three hours a day
for weeks at a time.”

in her words,
“My sentence was doled out
long before there was a verdict.
Sentence first, verdict afterward.”

Guilty long before a day in court.”

in her words,
she does not have a
“significant problem
with not telling the truth.”

in her words,
“I hate to say this, but
cops believe other cops,
cops tend to victimize the victims.

I see why I was treated
the way I was even
had I been completely truthful.”

“Cops lie to people every day.
I’m just one of the
unfortunate idiots
who admitted they lied.”

in her words,
“I don’t give a shit
about what anyone
thinks about me,

I never will.

I’m OK with myself.

I sleep pretty good at night.”

 

    These are chosen words spoken by Casey Anthony since the 2008 death
of her infant daughter Caylee. The toddler’s remains were found
in a wooded area near her home, and wasn’t reported missing
until a month after she was last seen.
    Casey Anthony was accused of killing her daughter —
prosecutors could not establish how Caylee died,
but Judge Belvin Perry Jr., who presided at Anthony’s trial,
suggested that Anthony may have accidentally killed her daughter
while trying to calm her with chloroform
(according to the Orlando Sentinel).
    An investigator claimed that her lawyer, Jose Baez,
told them “that Casey had murdered Caylee and dumped the body”.
    Casey Anthony was convicted of lying to police, but was acquitted
of murder. Casey Anthony was described by a Florida Department
of Corrections spokeswoman as ‘One of the Most Hated Women in America’.
