Since her acquittal in the death of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee, Casey Anthony has kept a low profile, living in hiding and refusing all interviews.
But Tuesday afternoon via telephone, Anthony, 26, surprisingly spoke to CNN's Piers Morgan in a 10-minute discussion that was not played on-air.
Anthony asserted her innocence, but says she's ashamed of who she was, and shed light on her current life as well as the public perception of her.
"Obviously I did not kill my daughter," Morgan quoted Anthony as saying last night "There's nothing in this world I've ever been so proud of."
"There's no one I loved more than [Caylee]. She's my greatest accomplishment." ‬
Living in solitary seclusion, Anthony says she has reflected on some of her mistakes. "I didn't trust law enforcement because of my relationship with my father, who is ex law enforcement himself," she said.
"I didn't give them the benefit of the doubt, which is probably why they didn't give me the benefit of the doubt ... the public perception of me is bad, absolutely horrible. I was a stupid kid, but I've never been a 'party girl.'"
"I've gone through hell. I'm ashamed in many ways of the person I was."‬
Casey is now out of hiding and on the run after being served with a subpoena in the defamation case being brought by Zenaida Gonzalez.
Anthony's lawyer, Cheney Mason, appeared on Piers' program and revealed that she spends her days indoors, reading and watching television.
Her current literary fare: The Hunger Games trilogy.
