The order issued on Monday by Judge Stan Strickland requiring Casey Anthony to report in person to probation in Orlando by Thursday has been stayed by Judge Belvin Perry. Judge Strickland’s order reassigned the matter to Judge Perry so he will be the one who ultimately decides Anthony’s probationary fate. The Judge has scheduled a hearing on Friday morning at 9am to address the issue.
Casey Anthony was sentenced this morning to 4 years in the county jail for her conviction on four counts of Providing False Information to a Law Enforcement Officer. The Judge, Belvin Perry, gave her the maximum possible time in jail allowed under the law by handing down the 4 one-year terms in jail to be served consecutively. She will also receive over 3 years of credit for time served as well as gain time from the jail for good behavior. Some early estimates indicate that she could be released later this month or sometime in early August.
Update: Casey Anthony will be released on Sunday, July 17th due to credit for time already served and gain time for good behavior. It will be her 1,007th day in jail.
