A producer claims he met with Casey Anthony in Palm Springs today to discuss a $1million television deal, the MailOnline can exclusively reveal.
Al Taylor, who on Sunday said Anthony's first interview was a done deal, claims he was called to the early morning meeting in an undisclosed location by Anthonys legal team this morning.
He claims to have met with Anthony, who was flanked by her lawyer Jose Baez, for 15 to 20 minutes to discuss his proposal, he said.
I made a plea to her last night Mr Taylor said referring to his appearance on CNN's Issues show.
Jose's a great lawyer but he's not a great agent. Take the money, he had said.
Mr Taylor claims Mr Baez is reluctant for Anthony to work with him, but that she was keen.
She (Anthony) made them come to Palm Springs. She wants the money that's for sure, he said.
'No one else has the balls. I'm offering money from my own company. We're the only game in town.
Mr Taylor said he has offered Anthony $1million to be interviewed by an as yet unconfirmed host, through his own company Private Elevator Productions.
The money was raised by unnamed investors, he added.
Mr Taylor had said part of the proposed show would include Anthony taking a lie detector test.
But after his alleged meeting with the 25-year-old this morning he said he would be willing to reconsider this aspect.
She was a little concerned about how she is going to look with the lie detector test, Mr Taylor said.
I said: "You're the most hated woman in America, if you have to do some weird things
'We were worried she wouldnt answer the questions. We wanted to get our million dollars worth.
Anthonys lawyer Mr Baez admitted he would meet with Mr Taylor to hear what he had to offer but denied the deal had been sealed during an interview with Fox News.
Mr Taylor, a freelance producer, also claimed he had given the Jerry Springer show first refusal of the Anthony interview.
A spokesman for the Springer show denied the conversation ever took place however.
Mr Taylor claims he has a written and verbal agreement with Mr Baezs law firm and said he threatened to sue Anthony should she back out.
She said "If you're gonna sue me, join the line, Mr Taylor said of Anthony.
He refused to comment on what Anthony had been wearing or where she was heading after their alleged meeting but did say she seemed normal.
You would never know she had been in jail for three years, he said.
Mr Taylor also claimed Anthony asked him never to call her 'Tot Mom.'
That was a sort of dig at Nancy Grace, he added.
While Mr Taylor said he would offer the interview with Anthony to a U.S. network for free he claims to have also contacted countries around the world even African countries to discuss network deals.
The pair also discussed a potential $1million book deal at the alleged meeting, Mr Taylor claims.
The freelance producer said he told Anthony he had a ghost writer and also a title Not Guilty in mind.
Because he is an independent publisher he 'can take the heat' of the likely boycott that would occur with such a controversial publication, he added.
Mr Taylor claims he left Anthony with the decision.
I gave her a hug and said "you do what you need to do."'
He then claims to have told her: 'youll be worth $100,000 in six weeks.
Mr Taylor said he could turn a show around in a week should Anthony agree to the deal.
Anthony was thought to be in Carlsbad, California, according to the Today Show.
The private Pilatus PC-12 jet Anthony was whisked away on the morning of her release from Orange County Jail is owned by California attorney Todd Macaluso's firm, according to the news programme.
Macaluso had, at one point, been a member of Anthony's defence team and had given her $70,000.
The firm has an office at the Palomar Airport in Carlsbad.
However a Florida TV station claims Anthony was spotted landing at an executive airport back in Orlando late Monday in a private jet.
