    Inside the Mind of Casey Anthony: A Psychological Portrait

    About this audiobook

    The trial of twenty-five year old Casey Anthony for the death of her daughter Caylee was the most sensational case in America since O.J. Simpson's—with a verdict every bit as stunning. After being acquitted in July 2011, Ms. Anthony instantly became one of the most infamous women in the world.

    Dr. Keith Ablow distills tens of thousands of pages of documents he has obtained, his behind-the-camera, one-on one interviews, and his decades of experience in the world of forensic psychiatry to make sense of a woman whose defense attorney described as an innocent victim of childhood sexual abuse, but the state insisted was a cold-blooded murderer.

    Inside the Mind of Casey Anthony delivers an incisive, riveting way of understanding this troubled young woman.

      What a crock. The author puts the blame squarely on the parents shoulders but mostly Cindy’s. He completely exonerates Casey.. Not even -“well, she had SOME responsibility…” Author Tried to make George this HUGE weak pervert and Cindy, this huge controlling monster. Listen, I was abused, my whole life. I couldn’t make a move without my mom‘s permission. I was terrified of her. My father was weak . I didn’t kill my children. I got pregnant very young and I took care of them. and I didn’t lie even though my mother lied about constantly about everything. constantly so that she would look good in front of parents and friends. This is the worst true crime writing I’ve ever read. It’s so biased I couldn’t finish it . Terrible!

      Speculation, Repitition, speculation and some more speculation. Just because you emphasize and repeat guesses a few thousand times doesn't mean that's the truth. People are more complex than that, more impulsive than that, more layered.

      I remember when this happened and how it made me want to cry for the loss of such a precious innocent little girl. I got to say I didn't settle any questions I had over this case from reading this book. While I do believe Mr. Ablow has done his job with the research needed to write a true crime book, it felt like he was trying to convince me of how innocent she was and I'm not sure she is. Lots of people have bad upbringings. See the thing is she may not have done the killing of her little girl but to me she is still so very guilty of failing Caylee in her life and in her death. She hid, ran and lied after Caylee disappearance and that to me is unforgivable. He just really never convinced me her parents were terrible people but, instead, convinced me she was a nut who needed serious help and didn't sound as if she was capable of raising a child. Just a sad, sad case. One of thousands that make my heart bleed.

      Full of redundant and repetitive statements as well as some outlandish claims. I thoroughly enjoy psychology. It is one of my favorite subject, and I tend to believe much of what people think is unbelievable. But the claims that Ablow makes are even too much for me to believe. In essence, it's like a long-winded, dull blog entry that turns annoying really quickly.

      Keith Ablow writes good novels. With this non-fiction book he repeats himself endlessly. One scene at Caylee's birth, in particular, he must have referred to in detail at least a dozen times when once was clearly enough. I learned a lot about the background of Casey and a bit about Cindy, George, and Caylee from a psychological viewpoint, which is Ablow's intent but I think he wrote a 100 page book on 236 pages. The trial is not covered.
