Just saw the CA: Where the True Lies Peacock Documentary (2022). Note that I have never really followed the case to any extent before - other than being aware of this (like almost everyone else on the planet) on at least a peripheral basis off & on from 2008 - 2011. And, other than just seeing this doc. & also recently looking at a time-line of the case - I haven't done any other research and/or read up on this to any great extent.
-It's interesting that this case got so much attention when the news first broke back in 2008. You would think something like this would definitely make local news, but for it to go "viral" was somewhat extraordinary. Not to downplay the horrific nature of this case/crime....but, as everyone who follows TC knows - crimes that are equally horrific happen all of the time everywhere, and rarely do they get any kind of media coverage.
-IMHO it's really impossible to know what to believe. I'm not even going to speculate on what actually happened here.
-I do find it interesting that it took so long for CA to be found. I.e., if we are to believe that CA was missing for a month when this was first reported to the authorities in mid-July 2008, then she was missing from mid-June - on. And, the body was found in mid-December 2008...a full six months later. And, it wasn't even found by the authorities - but by a utility worker. It doesn't even look like that area was searched to any extent (if at all) prior to the discovery, either - despite it being a relatively short distance from CA's house. This is despite the fact that this case got international media attention almost from the beginning.
That all being said, this doesn't surprise me at all. I.e., in a lot of other MP cases, it sometimes takes years before anything turns up - sometimes by accident. And, in other cases - nothing is ever found.
FWIW, here's the time-line:

Casey Anthony: A Complete Timeline of Her Murder Case and Trial
The young mother raised suspicions with her behavior after the disappearance of her daughter, Caylee, though prosecutors were unable to conclusively tie her to the toddler's death.
