Orange County investigators said today that they are the only credible source of information in the case of missing 3-year-old Caylee Marie Anthony.
"The Orange County Sheriff's Office is not going to put information out there that's not going to benefit finding the child," said Chief Mark Strobridge.
Authorities made the statement during a "roundtable session" with reporters in Orlando to recap details of a case that's received intense media coverage and sparked various theories.
This morning, the grandmother of missing 3-year-old met with officials at the Orange County Sheriff's Office.
Cindy Anthony left without telling reporters what was discussed, though she and her husband have made surprising statements to the media in the past.
Today also marks the 28th day since her daughter, Casey Anthony, has been locked up in the jail.Authorities booked her on charges of child neglect, a felony, and filing a false statement, a misdemeanor.
Casey Anthony, 22, remains there until she can post a $500,000 bail.
She is living alone in a 7-by-12-foot cell in the county's female detention center.Jail officials say she spends most of her days reading books from the jail library and sleeping. She is not allowed to have pen and paper.
In addition to her legal team, Anthony's family can visit her. The jail does not allow face-to-face contact with the public.
Visitation -- limited to three a week -- is done through live video, and participants talk by phone.However, Anthony has refused to see her family for the past several visits -- including her parents Sunday night. She gave no reason.Her brother, Lee, canceled a visit Tuesday. Like his sister, he gave no reason.
Her parents are scheduled to visit again Thursday. Jail officers will ask her that day whether she wants to see them.
