The 60-year-old comedian and TV personality took to social media over the weekend to share her thoughts on the newly released true crime series Casey Anthony: Where the Truth Lies, which aimed to offer previously unheard details about the tragic death of three-year-old Caylee Anthony. The series contains new interviews with Caylee’s mother and the prime suspect in her disappearance, Casey, who was later acquitted of murder charges and sentenced to four years in prison for lying to police. But fans were not too fond of O’Donnell’s takeaway. In a TikTok video O’Donnell posted on Dec. 1 with the caption “casey anthony #caseyanthony,” the Long Island native explained that after watching the documentary–which she referred to as one of the best documentaries she’s seen–she now believes Anthony to be innocent. “I’m in my car, and I’m thinking about Casey Anthony,” she prefaced in the clip. “I watched that whole documentary, and I believe her father did it,” she said, adding, “I do.” “Now, when I started watching that documentary, I thought, ’there’s no way in hell that this girl is innocent. And,” she said, pausing briefly, “I changed my mind.” Just one day earlier, O’Donnell had shared a different video that marked her completion of the second episode in the three-part series and that she was “not sure” of what to make of it. But a few hours later, she seemed to have had some epiphany. “It kind of made sense what she was saying, and I believed her,” O’Donnell revealed, noting, “everyone said she was a great mom.” “I don’t know; I know this is going to be a controversial opinion.” In the nearly three-minute video, O’Donnell attempted to share the evidence she believed to be profound enough to change her mind, but to her dismay, most fans weren’t as easily swayed. “Oh Rosie, no one waits 30 days to report their child missing. She did it!!!” one TikToker wrote back in the comments. “I watched it and I think she had 10 years to perfect her story. No one waits 31 days to report their child missing. Even then her mom made her,” explained another. Other TikTokers have gone viral for digging up the original court footage and tagging O’Donnell to jog her memory of the original evidence that they had against Anthony, citing the strange phone call that she made to her mother after she was arrested, the fact that Anthony was convicted of lying to authorities. How, years later, Anthony frantically called the police when a drink was thrown on her at a Miami bar but not once in the days her daughter was missing, reminding O’Donnell that Anthony was seen partying instead of searching for Caylee in the days the three-year-old was unaccounted for.
