Most of the world was outraged when Casey Anthony was acquitted of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee Anthony, in 2011 — but perhaps no one more so than Nancy Grace. The former prosecutor and TV host made no secret of her disdain for the ‘Tot Mom,” and more than a decade later, that hasn’t changed. Now that Casey is on TikTok offering legal advice, Nancy made it clear she isn’t buying it.

“I said, ‘We will hear from her again,’” Nancy, 65, told People in an interview published on March 29, as she recalled predicting the world hadn’t seen the last of Casey, 39. “Now she’s making money off of her daughter’s [death].”

However, Nancy said that the devil “has to come up through the ice when hell freezes over before [she] will give her a penny.”

Earlier this month, Casey made a video on TikTok where she claimed to now be a “legal advocate.”

“I am a researcher, I’ve been in the legal field since 2011 and in this capacity, I feel that it’s necessary, if I’m going to continue to operate appropriately as a legal advocate, that I start to advocate for myself and also advocate for my daughter,” the Florida mother said in the clip. “For those of you who don’t know, my name is Casey Anthony. My daughter’s Caylee Anthony. My parents are George and Cindy Anthony. This is not about them.”

While Casey said her goal was to “give people tools and resources that they can utilize so they actually know where they can turn to,” Nancy scoffed at the offer.

“I truly do not believe that the public expects legal advice from Tot Mom,” she told the publication.

Nancy also discouraged people from following Casey or giving her any attention at all, saying, “That’s where self-control comes in. Don’t give in to the prurient curiosity to see what Tot Mom says next.”

Caylee wasn’t reported missing until 31 days after she vanished from her Florida home, and Nancy extensively covered the case from the beginning. It soon came to light that during those 31 days, Casey, who was 22 at the time, was seen out partying at clubs.

When questioned by police, Casey led investigators on a wild goose chase, claiming that Caylee was taken by a fictional babysitter, “Zanny the Nanny”, and that she worked at Universal Studios — both of which were proven to be lies. Police later found traces of human decomposition and chloroform in the trunk of Casey’s car.

On October 14, 2008, Casey was indicted by a grand jury on first-degree murder and arrested. A little less than two months later, a utility worker named Roy Kronk discovered Caylee’s remains in a wooded area near the Anthony family home. Her badly decomposed body was wrapped in a Winnie the Pooh blanket and an expert testified that there was residue from a heart-shaped sticker placed on her lips.

Casey pleaded not guilty to all charges, including first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, and aggravated manslaughter of a child. However, the lawyer leading her legal team, José Baez, claimed that Caylee had accidentally drowned in the family pool and Casey’s father, George, 84, encouraged her to cover it up. George denied the allegations.

Casey was acquitted of the murder, child abuse and manslaughter charges on July 5, 2011, despite the public’s overwhelming belief in her guilt. Since then, she’s mostly stayed out of the spotlight.
