Claim: Casey Anthony is opening a home daycare center in Florida. On 5 August 2016, the web site _Associated Media Coverage_ reported that Casey Anthony (who was acquitted of her
two-year-old daughter Caylee's murder in 2011) was planning to open and operate a home daycare business: > Information regarding Anthony's plan to open a home daycare >
originally surfaced last month when a previous Florida Department of > Children and Families employee leaked a photo of Casey Anthony's > family daycare home registration
application on social media > websites including Twitter and Facebook. The employee responsible > for the leak was reportedly so caught-off-guard to see Casey > Anthony's
application that he took a picture of it on his computer > screen and shared it with his social media friends and followers. > The employee responsible for taking the photo has since
been > terminated from his position at the Florida Department of Children > and Families and has been unavailable for comment ... Anthony [told > a reporter] that she didn't
find her true passion and the potential > solution to her financial woes until she began babysitting for her > neighbors 2 small children. According to Anthony, she began watching >
the 2 children when their 36-year old single mother Debbie Higgins > started a new career and was in desperate need of childcare. Anthony > had been regularly babysitting the Higgins
children for around > 6-months when she decided to take apply for a Florida business > license and open her own home daycare. > > Anthony told [the reporter], "Watching
after Jade and Martin > (Higgins) has really opened my eyes to my true passion – taking > care of children. I believe that children are our greatest gift, > there hasn't been a
day that goes by that I don't mourn for Caylee > Marie, she will always be in my heart, I am hoping that by caring > for the children of others, I can begin the healing
process." Alongside its content, the article included a purported application (partially redacted, but including an e-mail address with the word "Caylee" in it): The story was
one of several hoax articles published by the fake news site _Associated Media Coverage_, and was clearly intended to induce outrage, given that Anthony was famously and controversially
acquitted of charges around the death of her toddler daughter. _Associated Media Coverage_ often spreads false claims, including a story about a motorcycle curfew in March 2016 and a
motorcycle speed ban in August 2016, invented a looming FDA e-juice ban, and fabricated a claim about several jurisdictions codifying a "two pet maximum" ordinance. It also
promulgated a false story about a transgender bathroom controversy-related shooting during a period of national debate (and increased tensions) over the issue. Although many fake news
sites feature disclaimers informing readers their content is not credible, _Associated Media Coverage_ does not. According to recent reports, Anthony lacks a steady job, relies on members
of her legal team for financial support, and runs a photography business called Case Photography where she allegedly stages photo-ops and tries to sell them to media outlets.
