Casey Anthony breaks silence in upcoming Peacock special

Since her trial and subsequent acquittal for the murder of her two-yearold daughter Caylee 11 years ago, Casey Anthony has largely stayed out of the spotlight. However, Anthony will finally be telling her story as part of a new limited series, “Casey Anthony: Where the Truth Lies,” streaming later this month on Peacock.

The three-part series is helmed by Alexandra Dean (“This Is Paris,” “Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story”) and will include Anthony’s account of the investigation and subsequent trial; and gives Anthony the chance to speak directly to speculation surrounding her actions at the time.

“Since her acquittal in 2011, public opinion of Casey Anthony has been largely shaped by the media convinced of her guilt. Casey had never given an in-depth or on-camera interview explaining her actions until now,” Dean said, adding that the series is “a startling psychological portrait of Casey Anthony and a complete narrative of what she says happened to her daughter weighed against multiple sources of potential evidence.”

In addition to the interview with Anthony herself, the docu-series will also include never-before-seen archival footage and the defense’s evidence.

“As a filmmaker and journalist, my interest was in getting closer to the unbiased truth by hearing all sides of the story — from opposing voices to Casey herself. While having access to Casey was critical, it was even more important that we had complete editorial control over the outcome of the reporting we did,” Dean said.

The first episode of “Casey Anthony: Where the Truth Lies,” will debut Nov. 29, exclusively on NBC streaming service Peacock.
