Although the neighborhood is quiet now, residents of Hopespring Drive have endured months of chaos in the wake of the Casey Anthony case.

During the height of the search for missing toddler Caylee Anthony, the east Orange County neighborhood was inundated with around the clock news coverage and dozens of protesters as Anthony was arrested and then released on house arrest several times last summer.

Torres said there was so much traffic on the street that he got to the point that he would not let his young daughter go outside.

"We were not able to let her outside because cars were driving all the time. A lot of traffic," Torres said.

The grandparents of slain toddler Caylee Anthony say they want to bring awareness to the cases of other missing children.

Cindy and George Anthony told CBS' "The Early Show" Tuesday that on the first anniversary of Caylee's disappearance they want to help other families whose children are missing. Cindy Anthony says so many missing children are forgotten.

One of Casey Anthony's defense attorneys appeared on NBC's Today show, but answered very little about the case.

Host Meredith Vieira asked Anthony's defense attorney Linda Kenney Baden if she could provide some insight into her client's thoughts on today's date -- a year after anyone last saw Caylee Marie Anthony alive.

But Linda Baden, who appeared alongside her husband, Michael Baden, avoided answering Vieira's questions, saying only that "we have an innocent client and we are going to be addressing all those issues in court in the next year to come."

The Badens' new criminal thriller Skeleton Justice debuts today. They answered questions about their book.
 
Casey Anthony: What the reporters have to say about the story -- WFTV's Kathi Belich cites 'concern people have for Caylee'

But what has struck the reporters who have covered the Anthony saga?

I asked a few who have been on the Anthony beat for nearly a year.

Kathi Belich, WFTV-Channel 9: "What strikes me most about covering this story is the outpouring of love and concern that people have for Caylee even though they never knew her. And the difficulty in dealing with her family's unpredictable and perplexing behavior. People feel protective and attached to this adorable little girl and want to make sure that her memory is honored and that justice is served. They believe deeply that she deserves it, and they are tireless in efforts to communicate that on a regular basis. I have never gotten so many e-mails about one story!"

Tony Pipitone, WKMG-Channel 6: "At first, the high level of interest from all over the country was surprising. This was, after all, at its heart, a domestic missing child investigation, but with some photogenic main characters. As the investigation progressed, though, it seemed each development led to some bizarre or, at least, interesting twist, and as we dug into the details, a pretty rich story developed. And people still ask me about it in the Publix."

A memorial for Caylee was held Tuesday evening in Blanchard Park in East Orange County.

"I didn't want to do this along Suburban Drive," said Richard Grund, memorial speaker. "I immediately said no that's not how I remember her...swinging, singing."

A Facebook sight dedicated to Caylee's memory has more than 22,000 members. When he saw that number, Grund said he realized Caylee has become a symbol for many all over the world who've felt abused and abandoned. But, he said it's time to move past the obsession over Caylee.

"There are other kids out there," Grund said. "Let's take this focus and share it."

Lawyer: George and Cindy Anthony Don't Know Truth, Casey Likely to Take Stand in Trial
Anthony Attorneys Battle to Quell Information Leaks Which Fuel 'Scewed Version of Events'
"Snip" By LEE FERRAN June 16, 2009
Brad Conway, said the Anthony's do not know the truth about what happened to Caylee, but he knows of no theory in which the Anthony's daughter and Caylee's mother Casey Anthony is above suspicion.
"They support her, but they don't know what the truth is," Conway said. "There's probably one person that knows the whole truth. That's Casey Anthony."

It's a truth that should come out, Conway said, in the course of a trial during which Casey Anthony would likely take the stand in her own defense.

"In this matter, it's almost inconceivable that she wouldn't take the stand. I think based on [Casey Anthony's attorney] Mr. Baez's assertions, she has to take the stand," Conway said. http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=7844545&page=1
 
Casey Anthony: WESH analyst says Jose Baez is not focusing on issues that will help his client

Her attorney Jose Baez wants to interview five more jail employees about that tape of Anthony's reaction on the day Caylee's remains were found, WESH-Channel 2 reported. Prosecutors say Baez is "is trying to deflect attention from the evidence in the case and focus on bogus claims of government misconduct," WESH's Bob Kealing reported. Prosecutors are asking Judge Stan Strickland to decide what to do with the tape without having a hearing about the issue, Kealing added.

Defense attorney Richard Hornsby, who offers legal analysis for WESH, gave a blunt assessment of Baez: "You have an inexperienced lawyer who might be in a little over his head who's not focusing on the real issues in the case that will really help Miss Anthony at the end of the day."

Casey Anthony Charged With Murder In Daughter's Death

A man who once thought he was Caylee's grandfather helped organize a memorial at Blanchard Park Tuesday evening. Richard Grund's son, Jesse Grund, is Casey Anthony's ex-fiance.

"From the day this case started the world was invited in," Grund said. "If you remember, any time there was a camera, the family said, 'Come on in. Learn about Caylee.' Well people fell in love with Caylee. You can't invite everybody into your home and then say, 'Oh, go away. We don't want you anymore.' Now these people are emotionally invested."

Around a dozen people had gathered at the memorial by 6 p.m.

Local 6 reporter Tony Pipitone used cell phone records to track Casey Anthony's day on June 16.

UPDATED: Vigil Marks 1 Year Since Caylee Was Last Seen Alive

A vigil Tuesday night marked one year since Caylee Marie Anthony was last seen alive.

A Facebook group called &#8220;In Memory of Caylee Marie Anthony&#8221; hosted the event at Jay Blanchard Park.

Caylee&#8217;s grandfather, George Anthony, appeared on the CBS &#8220;Early Show&#8221; Tuesday morning, on which he talked about the last moments he had with his granddaughter.

&#8220;One year ago today, I woke up with her that morning, at 7:30, and got a chance to have breakfast with her,&#8221; George Anthony said. &#8220;Just before 1:00 that day, I never realized I would never see her, kiss her, hold, hear her call me &#8216;JoJo&#8217; and put me in a car and wave goodbye with her.&#8221;

Caylee Anthony: How the grandparents, the lawyers and television have kept it a case that grips the nation

But their baffling actions have spurred constant speculation: Did they do enough to protect Caylee? Have they done enough to get justice for the toddler? Did they help law enforcement as much as they could? Why do they keep popping up in the media?

Why aren't George and Cindy visiting Casey in jail? "This is a decision that's been made by Mr. Baez," Conway told "GMA," referring to Casey's attorney Jose Baez. "Mr. Baez does not want the videotapes, the audiotapes that he feels would be released when they go in to see her."

These practices have been in place a long time. But the Anthony case brought them home to the public in a new and jarring way.

Something just doesn't smell right in this media circus, and the public knows it.

Pathetic party girl Casey Anthony on her own wouldn't make this a case that captivates the country. But her parents, the lawyers and national television have elevated the saga to that status.

"But do you know of any theory that rules out Casey as being under the umbrella of suspicion here?" asked GMA reporter Chris Cuomo.

"I do not, no. I don't," responded Conway.

But Conway does think someone else may have been involved with the crime.

"I think there's reason to believe that other people were involved. The question is what was their involvement? How deep was it? Was it minimal or was it actually bordering on conspiracy?" asked Conway.

Conway went on to say that he and his clients are trying to take control over the information that the public gets to see. They want to make sure Casey gets a fair trial.

Anniversary of Caylee&#8217;s disappearance

Tonight, dozens of people will gather at J. Blanchard Park to remember the toddler. "We're getting together to acknowledge the loss of Caylee a year ago and to honor her and remember," Richard Grund. His son, Jesse, was once engaged to Casey.

Grund, who is an ordained minister, will lead the prayers. An Internet group which started on the social networking site Facebook.com has been raising money for a balloon and butterfly release following the vigil.

Grund said little Caylee always loved butterflies, so he feels they are symbolic. "I'd like for people to remember her for what she was, a singing, laughing little girl," he said, adding, "if we remember her as a butterfly, we will see her beauty."

The vigil begins at 6 p.m. this evening at J.Blanchard Park.

The next day, Casey Anthony paraded past Eyewitness News' camera after being caught in a litany of lies about a nanny and a job she didn't have. Her parents pressed her in jail about what happened to Caylee.

"We're going to see her little face again. I pray to God, Casey," Cindy said.

"I know in my heart she's not far. I can feel it," Casey told them.

While Casey seemed to be comforting her parents, prosecutors believe she might have been taunting them because she murdered Caylee and knew where she was.

There was no hiding for Casey on October 14, 2008. Her father testified against her. Later that day, a grand jury indicted her for first-degree murder.


Next in the case, there will be a hearing over whether the state should be allowed to release a videotape of Casey's reaction the day she learned a child's remains were found. The hearing date has not been set.

The Anthony family will also be in court soon to fight the release of Caylee's autopsy report.
