Anthony’s still selling missing toddler t-shirts

Friday, January 19, 2008

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35, Orlando) --

Weeks after the remains of missing toddler Caylee Antony were found, t-shirts bearing her likeness and asking for information on her whereabouts are still being sold.

The place? The MySpace website set up by the Anthony family shortly after Caylee went missing. The website said it was updated on January 13th.

The message says that in response to folks who want bracelets and shirts from the search for Caylee there are some left and they are for sale. All you have to do is write a check to the Anthony’s.That isn’t setting well with some people.

“I don't think they should be profiting, I think it's wrong,” said one visitor to the makeshift memorial set up where the toddler’s remains were found. Then there are blogs with dozens of email from folks, who say things such as " they (the Anthony’s) are sick individuals, morbid” they say since Caylee is no longer alive.

But according to Michelle Bart the woman in charge of the website, she put the message up at Cindy Anthony’s request.

“Since dr. G's announcement on December 19th,” Bart said. “I have had numerous requests still for bracelets and shirts." The money Bart made from the items she said will go to nonprofits that helped with the search. Bart added that said she would be talking with Cindy to see if they should close the sale.

I admit to having an old Grateful Dead T-shirt, but this just doesn't feel right...
