STORY: Casey Anthony Found Not Guilty (PHOTOS)
As Reported By ABC NEWS:
Casey Anthony was ordered today to remain in jail after Judge Belvin Perry sentenced her to four years in jail and a fine of $4,000 for lying to law enforcement officials.
The judge gave her a four year sentence, but she has already served nearly three years and would get credit for time served.
Spectators lined up all night to get seats for Anthony’s final appearance in her murder trial, and if the day of the verdict is any indication, it will be another highly charged crowd.
After the verdict was announced Tuesday, where law enforcement had to rope off the front of the courthouse as all of the key players in the case were expected to exit, bystanders chanted “Appeal, Appeal” and “Justice for Caylee.”
Corrections officials in Orlando have said that the “intense, emotional interest” in Anthony’s case means they’ll take special measures to make sure she’s safe.
