The Tragic Case Of Caylee Anthony’s Murder

Casey Anthony Stiffs Her LawyerThe whole reason lawyers defend their clients with such vigor is because they are being well-compensated for their work, right?

In the bankruptcy filings, she included her lawyer’s fairly hefty bill of $397,000. And, the final report for the Chapter 7 settlement indicates that Jose Baez received nothing. Other creditors include the IRS ($32,000) and the Sheriff’s department ($145,660). Although, many might argue that Casey Anthony did Jose Baez a favor because he worked on one of the most noteworthy cases of recent history. Most recently Jose was in the news again after he was working on the appeal of football star Aaron Hernandez’s murder conviction.
