the biological father of Caylee Anthony is unknown, Casey won divulge who it is”
Downing told authorities Casey told her that Caylee’s father was a man named Eric who had been in Orlando during Spring Break while she worked at Universal. She told Downing that “Eric” died the day before or the day of Caylee’s second birthday in August 2007. Downing said Casey told her that Jesse Grund had keys to the car that had been abandoned, suggesting that Grund could have done something with the car before it was discovered in the Amscot lot. Downing also said Casey came to her at one point, saying she was having an emotional breakdown and wanted to commit herself, leaving her daughter with her mother. In the report, Thompson said Casey appeared to be jealous when he showed some attention to her daughter by giving her a beanie baby. Later, when he saw the two in another store, he said Casey didn’t help Caylee with a heavy store door.
