During the interview, the two said that even if their daughter Casey is found guilty of killing their granddaughter, they will still support her.

"I don't want to believe I have a child that would hurt a child and I still don't think she would hurt a child," said Cindy Anthony.

The Anthony&#8217;s said they went on the show to cope with what they have been going through.

They have said over and over again that they are tired of the media circus, but that didn't stop George and Cindy Anthony from talking up a storm on CNN&#8217;s "Larry King Live" on Wednesday night.

George and Cindy Anthony were flanked by their attorney, Brad Conway. Both of them said they support Casey 100 percent, and they have no doubt about her innocence.

"I don't want to believe that I would have a child that would harm somebody else," George Anthony told King. "To say I believe my daughter would hurt my granddaughter, no."

"There's just so much a person can take. You know you're trying to protect your family. I never really cared about myself. All I ever cared about was how my wife was being taken care of, my son, my daughter, and do whatever I could to protect them. I think anyone would do the same thing,&#8221; George Anthony said.

"I mean a lot of people, they don't understand. They've never been in our shoes. So a lot of people, especially bloggers, they'll sit back, they like to pick things apart, and we're the target. They're picking apart the fact that we are standing behind our daughter, and they're picking apart that we're trying to make something out of Caylee&#8217;s tragedy,&#8221; Cindy Anthony said.

The body of their 2-year-old granddaughter, Caylee Anthony, was found in Florida in December. And their daughter, Casey Anthony, is charged in her death. She could be executed if convicted. It's a case that has gripped America.

George and Cindy Anthony answered their critics in an exclusive interview on "Larry King Live" Wednesday night.

Appearing with their lawyer, Brad Conway, they talked about whether they still support their daughter completely and what their lives have been like under the media glare.

King asked the Anthonys why their Casey Anthony did not call police until 31 days after Caylee went missing and was photographed out partying while Caylee was missing.

"A lot of people do weird things under stress and tragedy. It doesn't make her guilty," Cindy Anthony said.

When King asked the Anthonys about what should happen to whoever did kill Caylee, Cindy Anthony said she did not believe in the death penalty for anyone.

George and Cindy Anthony also discussed a foundation they have launched in Caylee's name. They said the proceeds will go to counsel families when a child goes missing.

DEATH PENALTY QUALIFIED ATTORNEY TERENCE LENAMON ISSUES OFFICIAL STATEMENT REGARDING CURRENT CASEY ANTHONY REPRESENTATION
Miami, Florida &#8211; May 2009 &#8211; In response to the current media coverage regarding legal representation of Casey Anthony, who is currently being held without bail in the Orange County Jail while awaiting an October 2009 trial for the murder of her daughter, Caylee Anthony, where the State of Florida is now seeking the death penalty, Miami criminal defense attorney Terence Lenamon issues the following statement:
&#8220;The importance of an experienced death qualified attorney's independent involvement in Ms. Anthony's case cannot be over emphasized. The penalty of death is unique in both its severity and finality. Standards consistent with both Florida law and the American Bar Associations Guideline's for the Appointment and Performance of Counsel in Death Penalty Cases (Feb. 2003) require conflict free investigation, evaluation, and preparation. In that I am no longer involved in the case, I am confident that Mr. Baez will aggressively pursue assuring that Ms. Anthony is provided death qualified counsel that will diligently represent her interests.&#8221;

Casey's Ex-Death Penalty Attorney Releases Statement
Posted: 4:40 pm EDT May 14, 2009
<snipped>
Casey's former death penalty attorney Terence Lenamon released a statement Thursday that appears to be a thinly veiled criticism of her current defense team.

Lenamon says American Bar Association guidelines require conflict free investigation, evaluation and preparation.

He and defense attorney Jose Baez parted ways over a disagreement about whether Casey should use a mental health defense.

Eyewitness News has learned that Baez is keeping very tight control over Casey and her defense, even though he is not a death penalty attorney and has not yet met the requirements to hire one.
