More than a decade after the death of 2-year-old Caylee Anthony, her grandparents, George and Cindy Anthony, have agreed to take lie detector tests on camera in response to Casey Anthony's recent claims against them.
In an exclusive sneak peek clip from the A&E special, Casey Anthony's Parents: The Lie Detector Test, Cindy is asked about whether or not she thinks Casey knows what happened to her daughter in 2008.
"Yes, I believe [Casey knows what happened], 100 percent. I kept hoping upon hope that she would confess," Cindy says of Casey. "And that's the only reason I've been putting myself through all of her drama and everything."
Caylee's disappearance was reported by Cindy in 2008 after Cindy claimed Casey had offered up varied explanations as to Caylee's whereabouts. Caylee's remains were later found in a laundry bag near the Anthony family's house. Casey was charged with first-degree murder. The defense at the time claimed that Caylee had accidentally drowned in the family's swimming pool, accusing George of disposing of her remains.
In 2011, Casey was found not guilty of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, and aggravated manslaughter of a child. She did receive a misdemeanor for providing false information to a law enforcement officer.
"I lost Casey and my granddaughter that day, but Caylee has always been the priority," Cindy says in the new special. "Caylee has always been the priority."
The two grandparents have come forward as a result of Casey's claims that she was sexually abused by her father and that he was involved in concealing Caylee's whereabouts after her death.
"To sit here and keep listening to her make different stories as it fits," Cindy says, before breaking down, and getting up from the interview.
"I'm having a hard time. I'm having a panic attack. I'm sorry. I'm gonna take my anxiety pills. I'm sorry," Cindy says before going in the other room where George goes to comfort and hold her. "I'm starting to lose it. I'm starting to faint. I'm starting to pass out."
Casey doubled down on her claims of sexual assault against George in the 2022 docuseries, Casey Anthony: Where the Truth Lies, and also accused George of staging the crime scene to point to Casey in her daughter's death.
Casey Anthony's Parents: The Lie Detector Test premieres Thursday, Jan. 4 at 9 p.m. ET on A&E and Lifetime.
