George and Cindy Anthony are reportedly in hiding after receiving death threats following their daughter CASEY’s shocking acquittal on murder charges for the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee.
Their attorney Mark Lippman said the threats against the couple were posted on the Internet and that the Orange County Sheriff’s Office was investigating.
Lippman also said it was too early to know if the Anthonys would welcome their daughter back.
Until her arrest three years ago on the murder charges , Casey Anthony had lived in her parents’ home in Orlando, Florida, RadarOnline.com reported.
After the verdict was read in court Tuesday, George and Cindy were the first ones out of the courthouse.
The couple later released a statement through their attorney.
"While the family may never know what happened to Caylee Marie Anthony, they now have closure for this chapter in their life," Lippman said in the release.
"They will now begin the long process of rebuilding their lives. Despite the baseless defense chosen by Casey Anthony, the family believes that the Jury made a fair decision based on the evidence presented, the testimony presented, the scientific information presented and the rules that were given to them by the Honorable Judge Perry to guide them.
"The family hopes that they will be given the time by the media to reflect on this verdict and decide the best way to move forward privately.”
Jurors in the case refused to talk to reporters after their verdict and their identities are being kept a secret.
Caylee would have turned six on August 9.
