ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The trial of a young mother accused of killing her 2-year-old daughter almost three years ago is set to begin this week in Florida amid great media hype.
The trial of 25-year-old Casey Anthony is drawing so much attention that the judge is keeping the location of jury selection secret until it begins Monday.
The court has received about 600 media credentials for the trial. The judge says that could dwarf the number who covered the infamous O.J. Simpson murder trial.
Anthony is facing a first-degree murder charge in the death of her daughter, Caylee. She could face the death penalty if convicted.
