Hello WS
I did not know Jose Baez is the one who hired Leonard Padilla.(!) I had read it as speculation, here at WS but I did not know it was a fact. What I chose to post below is from the same news story. Is Larry Garrison the same guy that still sits with Cindy and George? TIA.

News of Casey Anthony's possible release came the same day that her family acquired a spokesman. Larry Garrison, who is based in Los Angeles, said
he will handle media inquiries for the family. "They will not be speaking publicly anymore," he said by phone Friday.
Garrison is a film and television producer, journalist and actor. He is an author of Aruba: The Tragic Untold Story of Natalee Holloway and Corruption in Paradise, about the 2005 disappearance of an Alabama teenager.
He also represented the family of John Mark Karr, the man who falsely admitted to killing Colorado 6-year-old JonBenet Ramsey.

Garrison said he has been watching the Caylee Anthony coverage and reached out to the family when he saw the "spin" happening in the media.
"I have never seen a case so blown out of proportion," he said.
Casey Anthony has told investigators she left the child with a baby sitter, who cannot be found.
Media coverage inferring that Caylee might be dead kept at least two people who claim to have seen Caylee alive from alerting authorities, Garrison said.
"That's just a shame," he said. His goal, he said, is to get the public to focus on the search for Caylee. He said he's not getting paid for his work.
"This is not about a movie or a book," Garrison said. "I'm trying to help get these people their life back."

I know this isn't what everybody is talking about right now(sorry) ...I was reading and following links and came across it and I felt compelled to post. Plus, seeing the older stuff in contrast to what we "know" now interests me.
