For Casey Anthony, today marks a special day behind bars: her 23rd birthday.

But the day will likely be routine for Central Florida's high-profile mother, who has been charged in her 2-year-old daughter's death.

Other than her attorney, Anthony doesn't have any scheduled visitors. If family members did want to visit, they would have to talk to Anthony from a separate building via a video stream.

More Evidence Turned Over To Casey's Defense

http://www.wftv.com/news/18965023/detail.html

More of the prosecution's evidence in the case against Casey Anthony could be revealed as soon as Thursday.

The state attorney's office just handed over more files to the defense. That includes e-mails sent from Orange County investigators to the lab that tested some of the evidence.

The defense will also get to see videotapes of the wooded area near the Anthony home taken a month before Caylee's remains were found. The video shows the Anthony's private investigator Dominic Casey talking on a phone.

Prosecutors have also handed over three-dimensional photos of the scene and a photo of a child's t-shirt with the words "Big Trouble" on it.

Casey Anthony Turns 23 Years Old

Casey Anthony turned 23 years old on Thursday, a birthday she will spend almost entirely in her 12.5-by-7-foot cell.

Anthony's family has avoided meeting with Casey Anthony because the visits are recorded and released to the public as part of the discovery process.
In birthdays past, Internet photographs show Casey Anthony wearing a tiara and celebrating with her brother, Lee Anthony.

At a memorial service for Caylee in February, Anthony's father, George Anthony urged the public to reach out to his daughter.
"She deserves letters. Take the time to write a letter to her. Just say, 'Hi Casey, I'm thinking about you today," George Anthony said.
Casey Anthony's attorney screens her mail, however, and it's not known how much, if any, is passed on to her.

The Anthony family celebrated Caylee's August birthday without their granddaughter being present, and now will do the same with their daughter.
"Our emotions are really tough right now because tomorrow's a big day, and every day that gets closer to her birthday gets harder," said Cindy Anthony, Caylee's grandmother, a day before Caylee's third birthday.

Meanwhile, more documents in Casey Anthony's murder case were expected to be made public through the discovery process, but it's now known when that will occur.

Casey Anthony spent her 23rd birthday at the Orange County Jail on Thursday with just a visit from two of her attorneys and money from her dad.

Her father, George Anthony, also deposited a $100 money order into her account for purchases at the jail commissary.
Jail officials said no special treatment was planned, and no family members have made plans to visit her. Two attorneys. Jose Garcia and Gabriel Adam, visited.

Meanwhile, the property where a roadside memorial to Caylee is located has gone up for sale, and a real estate agent said two people have expressed interest.
Some mourners said it needs to stay there because it provides closure, but others who pass it every day said it needs to come down.

FOX 35 has learned the "Sunshine Caylee" doll is officially off the market. Showbiz Promotions out of Jacksonville, Florida announced they put the doll on the market in late January. After rage from the public, the company's owner changed his mind saying quote "After reviewing the response to our media introduction of the Sunshine Caylee Doll and listening to the advice of the general public. We feel that is it best to suspend the launch of The Sunshine Caylee Doll."

Today Conway called Showbiz Promotions and told the owner to take the doll and all caylee products down immediately. "We've come to an amicable agreement," said Conway.
That agreement, by midnight tonight the Caylee dolls and everything with Caylee's name on it will be off the site, no longer be for sale.

By midnight tomorrow www.cayleedoll.com should no longer exist. If it does, "We'll take the next
step," said Conway.
By 5:00 pm. Thursday the dolls, t-shirts and bracelets were removed from the site. FOX 35 will be checking. We'll let you know if cayleedoll.com is gone by midnight Friday.

Jaime Salcedo, President of Showbiz Promotions Speaks Out!
Thursday, March 19, 2009
<snipped>

Mr Salcedo commented on the story by Fox 35.
"I dont know how the story got twisted. It's typical of the media to do that. The basic idea is correct. However, a few statements are not. First and foremost. Mr Conway did not send a a cease and desist order. That statement is just not true. We had a 30 min conversation and I thanked him for the call and I provocatively advised Mr Conway that the products would be pulled immediately. He never asked me to pull anything. Truthfully, We have every right to sell them, and if we had bad intentions, we would have followed through with the sale of all the products. But we made a commitment back in January to pull the plug if any representative from the Anthony camp called. It was a courtesy, it was a promise."

Mr Salcedo also made us aware that a man who identified himself as Dominic Casey had called him the prior evening, but was slightly intoxicated, and made statements that led Mr Salcedo to believe he was not a legitimate source. Mr Salcedo said;
"He (Dominic Casey ) was just all over the place, and was making threats. I told him to have the Anthony's call or ask a lawyer to call, someone who can make some sense."
