Nancy Grace shares why she declined to take part in new Casey Anthony docuseries
Fox Nation host Nancy Grace rips Peacock's upcoming Casey Anthony docuseries and shares why she declined to take part in the show.
Casey Anthony is the focus of an upcoming docuseries more than a decade after the young woman was acquitted in the Florida murder of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, in a headline-grabbing case that gripped the nation.
Anthony, now 36, sat for an on-camera interview for one of the first times since a jury found her not guilty of murder in 2011 for her daughter's unsolved death. The three-part docuseries, "Casey Anthony: Where The Truth Lies," is expected to air on Peacock on Nov. 29, according to a teaser released Tuesday.
The 38-second clip shows Anthony fixing her hair, looking into the camera and pursing her lips as the interview begins.

"In 2011, Casey Anthony was accused of murdering her daughter," a message states in front of a black backdrop. "She was found not guilty."
The screen then returns to show Anthony’s straight face.
"Why talk to me now when you’re not getting creative control?" someone can be heard asking in the background.
Caylee’s grandmother reported her missing on July 15, 2008, weeks after she was said to have been last seen on June 16. Anthony said her daughter was with a babysitter when they disappeared.
Anthony was initially arrested for child neglect, but was later charged with more serious counts, including first-degree murder, after Caylee’s remains were discovered on Dec. 11.
