UPDATED: Family Prepares For Caylee's Memorial Service
Casey Anthony Has Not Asked To Watch Service
POSTED: 6:11 am EST February 9, 2009
UPDATED: 4:08 pm EST February 9, 2009

Family members of Caylee Anthony will say their final goodbyes to the slain toddler on Tuesday.
Caylee's grandmother, Cindy Anthony, is expected to speak at the 10 a.m. service at First Baptist Church of Orlando.
Caylee's mother, Casey Anthony, is in the Orange County Jail, and so far has not asked for permission to watch her daughter's memorial service on television.
Corrections spokesman Allen Moore said there's nothing in its policy to prevent Casey Anthony from watching the memorial Tuesday, but she has to ask for that access. Moore said Casey Anthony also has access to a radio and could listen to a simulcast in her protective custody cell.
A Kansas-based group is planning to protest Tuesday's service. The Web site for members of the Tokepa-based Westboro Baptist Church said they plan to picket outside Caylee's memorial from 9:15 a.m. to 10 a.m. The group gained national notoriety in 1998 when they picketed the funeral of hate crime victim Matthew Sheperd.

UPDATED: Casey Anthony Does Not Want Public Service For Caylee
Memorial To Be Held For Slain Toddler
POSTED: Monday, February 9, 2009
UPDATED: 4:44 pm EST February 9, 2009

<snipped>
In a statement read by her attorney, Casey Anthony said she does not want a public memorial service held for her slain daughter, Caylee.
The full statement, which was read by Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, Monday afternoon said:

"I miss Caylee every day and every minute of every day. I can't be there for Caylee's funeral, but some day I want to go and visit her grave and tell her how much I miss her.
"I love my parents to be in charge of the funeral for Caylee. I told them I wanted her buried in a casket, and I wanted there to be a gravestone so I can go and visit her. I asked them if there could only be a private funeral for just the family. I know they cremated her. I still don't want a public event with cameras and everybody around for Caylee's service, but I can't stop my parents from doing what they want. I truly hope that it will help them."

Orange County corrections officials said if Anthony wants to watch the service on television, she has to submit a request, which has not yet happened. Anthony does have access to a transistor radio and could listen to the service, which will be aired on Local 6 News and 87.7 FM. The service will also be streamed live on ClickOrlando.com.
Local 6 News will air the memorial service with coverage beginning at 9 a.m.

The growing Caylee Anthony memorial is a sign that the community is still grieving. Sunday night, residents came together to see and read the words of a grandmother who's come to terms that her granddaughter is gone.
"Bless her heart. I can only imagine what her and her family is going through right now," said Orlando resident Sherilyn Shavings.
"Even though it was a short life lived, just to celebrate the things she brought into the world," said Orlando resident Leanna Ramos.
Security will be very tight and the Anthony family does not want any disruptions.

TIGHT SECURITY EXPECTED AT MEMORIAL SERVICE

February 9, 2009
Security will be very tight and the Anthony family does not want any disruptions.

"The people that aren't welcome, most of them know who they are. The security team for the church and the Anthonys will know and they will be respectfully turned away,"
an Ormond Beach grandmother and her husband went out of their way Friday to pay their respects to Caylee at a memorial where her remains were found. To her, it's hallowed ground. http://www.wftv.com/news/18667721/detail.html

Members of a controversial Kansas church known for protesting military funerals plan to picket Caylee Marie Anthony's memorial Tuesday.
The Westboro Baptist Church detailed its plans in a recent news statement, which concludes with the phrase: "GOD HATES AMERICA."
The Topeka church claims that U.S. troops killed in combat are God's punishment for a nation harboring homosexuals.
Westboro Baptist Church is considered a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

FYI: Subject: RE: Anthony case photos and documents at FOX ORLANDO'S NEW WEBSITE!

I e-mailed them a letter the other day about some technical difficulties.

My e-mail:
Topic: Press Releases

Comments: Concerning the Caylee Anthony Timeline page etc. they don't work anymore!!!!! There is a huge problem with all of the videos, documents, video interviews, will not open at all.

This new set up is very confusing & not user friendly anymore. I speak as a Graphic Designer that much needs to be improved or go back to the other set up which was MUCH better. I hope you can clear this problem up quickly! Dianne

Casey Anthony has not asked for permission to watch the Tuesday morning memorial for her daughter, Caylee, WESH-Channel 2 and WKMG-Channel 6 reported at noon Monday.
Casey Anthony has to ask for the chance to watch, although she could listen on a radio in a cell, an Orange County corrections spokesman said. She is charged with Caylee's murder.
The stations and WFTV-Channel 9 warned that the security will be tight Tuesday at First Baptist Church of Orlando. Mourners will pass through metal detectors; cameras, phones and bags will not be allowed.
"The service will be a worship service. We don't want anything to disrupt that," pastor Scott Link told WESH.

CONTROVERSIAL ORGANIZATION COULD PROFIT FROM MEMORIAL

Hundreds are expected to attend Caylee's two-hour memorial Tuesday. Eyewitness News found out some of the groups the Anthonys are asking people to make donations to on behalf of Caylee have checkered pasts and questionable motives.

WFTV reporter Kathi Belich was the first reporter to break the story about how the founder of the Kid Finders Network has a criminal past and the group is still on the donation list for Tuesday.

Even though Kid Finders Network, out of Palm Beach County, has never found a missing child and even though Caylee has been found, they're still latched on to the Anthony family in Central Florida and the Anthony family has latched onto them.

Attorney Reads Casey Anthony Statement On Caylee Memorial
Monday, February 9, 2009 &#8211; updated: 5:36 pm EST February 9, 2009

<snipped>
Casey Anthony broke her silence Monday through her attorney, Jose Baez. She remains in jail, charged with her daughter Caylee's murder, but through her attorney Casey said she missed Caylee every minute, but wished her family wasn't holding such a public funeral Tuesday.
Casey was also pretty adamant that she didn't want Caylee's funeral to be public.
Obviously, Casey's parents didn't follow her wishes, as the First Baptist Church of Orlando plans for thousands to attend the public service Tuesday at 10:00am. Casey made it clear, through her statement, that she wasn't happy about the decision.
CONTROVERSIAL ORGANIZATION COULD PROFIT FROM MEMORIAL
WFTV reporter Kathi Belich was the first reporter to break the story about how the founder of the Kid Finders Network has a criminal past and the group is still on the donation list for Tuesday.Even after Eyewitness News exposed Milstead's arrests, Cindy is asking for donations to the Kid Finders Network rather than sending flowers for Caylee's memorial service Tuesday.
Milstead has been arrested for assault and for impersonating a police officer, claiming to be one and using a phony blue light. He uses a phony badge as Kid Finders' logo.The president of Crime Stoppers in south Florida got a restraining order against Milstead for demanding a 90-percent cut of donations he fraudulently solicited for Crime Stoppers by claiming to be an employee.

In an afternoon press conference Monday, Casey's lawyer, Jose Baez, told reporters that she does not agree with a public memorial, but does want to host a private one.
Baez will not be attending the service for Caylee Anthony.
He said he supports his client in her wishes for a closed-door service.
So far, Casey has not asked the Orange County Jail to view the funeral service. She does have a radio and may choose to listen to coverage.
Baez did visit Casey in jail Monday.
News 13 will have LIVE coverage of the memorial.

Casey Anthony: 'I miss Caylee every day'
Sarah Lundy and Eloisa Ruano Gonzalez | Sentinel Staff Writer
5:37 PM EST, February 9, 2009

<snipped>
Casey Anthony wants the world to know that she misses her daughter and regrets she cannot attend Tuesday's memorial service.
She allowed her parents, Cindy and George Anthony, to plan the funeral and made a few requests -- that the service be private and Caylee be buried in a casket with a tombstone to mark the grave.
However, her parents planned otherwise, are hosting a public memorial and may have had the child cremated.
Baez said Casey Anthony has not decided whether to watch the funeral coverage on TV from the jail. She does have a transistor radio. But Baez said he doesn't know whether Anthony will watch or listen.
Members of a controversial Kansas church known for protesting military funerals plan to picket Caylee Marie Anthony's memorial Tuesday.
Baez called their intended actions "despicable."

Anthonys set to celebrate short life of Caylee Marie
Amy L. Edwards | Sentinel Staff Writer

<snipped>
Thousands of people are expected to convene at the First Baptist Church of Orlando on Tuesday morning to attend the public memorial service for Caylee Marie Anthony, the toddler who captured the hearts of people around the world when she was reported missing seven months ago.
The service is expected to last about two hours, but few other details have been released. It was unclear Monday afternoon whether Caylee's grandparents, George and Cindy Anthony, will speak.
"It will be a celebration of this child's brief life -- brief, but very special life," said Brad Conway, the lawyer representing the Anthonys.

If you're going to Caylee's funeral, here's what you need to know

There will be security at the First Baptist Church of Orlando, and everyone who attends the funeral service for Caylee Marie Anthony must pass through a metal detector.
If you plan on attending the memorial service, here are other details you need to know:
*NOTE: Refer to article for all of the details.
Q. Who is allowed to attend?
A. The service is open to the public, but the Anthony family is reserving the right to refuse entry to certain people. California bounty hunter Leonard Padilla, who once helped bond Casey Anthony out of jail, is one of those not welcome.
Q. Can Casey Anthony watch the memorial service on television?
A. It's possible. She can request to watch television during the one hour per day she is allowed out of her cell, but as of Monday afternoon, she did not make a request to do so. Anthony does have a transistor radio, so she could listen to broadcasts of the service.

Padilla plans to hold his own Caylee Memorial
MORE DETAILS: http://www.myfoxorlando.com/dpp/news...dilla_memorial
Created On: Monday, 09 Feb 2009, 11:59 PM EST

- Bounty Hunter Leonard Padilla is back in Orlando. But is he back on the publicity bandwagon or really looking to help?

Cindy Anthony said Padilla is not allowed in to the memorial at the First Baptist Church of Orlando Tuesday, so Padilla is holding his own memorial on Suburban Drive
...... he organized the alternate memorial with Richard Grund, the father of Casey Anthony's ex-fiance
