Non-Fiction Analysis


The article “Prosecutors: Caylee's mom a 'person of interest'”, published by the Associated Press, details the disapearance of Caylee Anthony a 2 year old girl in Orlando, Florida. Her mother Casey Anthony is a person of intrest but has no been charged. Although, she does face charges conncected with lying to investigators ,child neglect and Circuit Court Judge.Anothony’s daughter has been missing since late June, and she did not report Caylee missing until last month. "Not a bit of useful information has been provided by Ms. Anthony as to the whereabouts of her daughter," Stan Strickland Circuit Court Judge said in ordering the bail. "And I would add that the truth and Ms. Anthony are strangers." Investigators said that Anothony’s truck smells of decompission and said they had found what they believe is a piece of Caylee’s hair. "The risk of her flight if she is released on some low bond increases exponentially, especially now that she's heard this additional evidence and that she is their person of interest," said assistant state attorney Linda Drane-Burdick.

A missing child is one of the most stressful and scary thing to go through. In this perticular case, Casey Anothony incriminates herself by not taking action right when her daughter went missing. It took Anothony about a week to report her daughter missing. How can a mother not take action right when she finds out her child is missing? Even though this story has nothing to do with polictics or oil prices, its just as important as those two things or even more; politics will change and oil prices will eventually go down, but a missing child could be found dead or alive.
