Casey's back in jail as of today? Any news why?
The charges include petit theft, uttering a forged instrument and criminal use of personal information. She faces earlier charges of child endangerment and charges of lying to authorities in the case of the disappearance of her young daughter Caylee.
According to the Orange County Sheriff's Office, she was arrested "in connection with their ongoing investigation into Ms. Anthony's illegal use of a friend's bank account. The defendant was arrested without incident at the Orange County Jail following a scheduled visit with her home confinement release supervisor. She was with counsel at the time of her arrest and is expected to remain in custody until her first appearance tomorrow morning."
According to Eyewitness News sources, Casey had worked out a plan to turn herself in on the new charges while already at the facility in order to avoid the hysteria that has accompanied her previous arrests. Casey Anthony won't be able to bond out at least until Tuesday, because she has to face a judge on the new charges. That's the rule in Orange County when you're rearrested while you're out on bond. The bond for the new counts is set at $1,250.
The three charges Casey was arrested on Monday are in addition to 10 other charges not related to Caylee's disappearance. The now 13 charges in total are all connected to Casey's friend, Amy Huizenga, whom investigators say Casey stole checks from.
"When we have probable cause, we make the arrest," said Carlos Padilla, Orange County Sheriff's Office.
The PR firm for Casey's attorney, Jose Baez, issued a statement through their spokesman accusing investigators of grandstanding with the latest arrest.
"It is like addicts going through withdrawal," spokesman Todd Black said in a statement. "When things start calming down a little, the authorities inject another media fix, instead of conducting themselves professionally and taking care of whatever charges they have at the same time."
"We make the arrests as it benefits the cases we are investigating and when it benefits law enforcement," Padilla said.
