And she's out again.
Casey Anthony took the familiar trip home -- followed by media helicopters that broadcast her travels live -- after being released from the Orange County Jail on $1,250 bond.
Tuesday's scene marked her third arrest and release since investigators identified her as a person of interest in the disappearance of her 3-year-old daughter, Caylee Marie, who was reported missing in mid-July.
The latest check-fraud arrest came Monday when she surrendered and was booked into jail on charges of uttering a forged check, fraudulent use of personal identification and petty theft. This is related to checks taken in mid-July from one of Anthony's friends.
The 22-year-old single mother appeared before Orange County Judge John Jordan, who ordered her to stay away from the victim, Amy Huizenga, and remain on home confinement.Anthony's attorney Jose Baez blasted the Orange County Sheriff's Office for dragging out the economic-crime charges over several weeks to put pressure on his client. He said investigators arrest her on check-fraud charges when news quiets about the high-profile case.
"I think we are seeing the games that are being played," Baez said outside the jail. "I'm not intimidated -- not in any way, shape or form." And neither is his client, Baez said. "If police can do this to her, they can do this to anyone."
Baez later gripped his client's hand as they walked out of the jail accompanied by two bodyguards. Anthony -- who was wearing sunglasses and a T-shirt depicting her missing daughter -- held her head up and did not respond to reporters shouting questions. They climbed into a waiting red pickup and left without saying a word.
Anthony returned to her neighborhood, where residents aren't backing down from their effort to keep protesters from yelling and gathering in front of Anthony's home.
On Tuesday, Orange Circuit Court Judge Reginald Whitehead denied a request by the Chickasaw Oaks Phase Three Homeowners Association for a temporary injunction. He wrote in his order that the association did not "give notice" to protesters as required by Florida law.
Karen Wonsetler, the association's attorney, had asked the judge to waive the notice since the protesters weren't part of an organized group and their names were not known. The judge did not -- but allowed the association to try again.
Starting Tuesday night, association members planned to hand out notices of a hearing Monday morning to protesters. They may put up notices in neighbors' yards near the Anthony house. Wonsetler hopes this addresses the "notice" requirement that prevented the judge from ruling in their favor. "We are going to keep trying," she said.

Its a darn shame that the working class have to pay for this girls lies, she knows exactly where her daughter is, was her mother aware of any babysitter, most likely NOT!! she should be put in jail and stay there to rot, shame on her and her family, and not looking for that little girl hang her give her the death penalty.
Nancy Grace is so on the money. The lies that come out of this girls mouth, shame on her!!!! She most likely burned her and spread her ashes somewhere in a lake or something to that effect. She has no compassion, no feelings, what is wrong with her, oh she is going to try and plea insanity go figure, she is sane and should be held accountable for her actions.
