Everyone is keeping a tight lip about who is flipping the bill for Casey Anthony's "Dream Team of Experts".
It has been reported that a trust fund has been set up to fund the team. This would mean that a person or persons are contributing funds to an account to be designated for payment to the defense team.
Also reported, all of the experts have signed a confidentiality agreement as part of their contract.
On Larry King: Live, Friday, December 19, 2008, Dr. Kathy Reichs, forensic anthropologist, author, and producer of the TV series "Bones", said she was not aware of who was paying for the defense team. Dr. Lawrence Kobilinsky also said he was unaware of where payment is being directed from.
However, Reichs did say she could "squelch some of the rumors" that have been surfacing regarding payment.
The rumor she referred to was that she has signed a book deal and that the proceeds would go to the Anthony family to pay for the defense team.
Reichs said she could "unequivocally say that's untrue". Adding that she has never been approached about it and she is very busy writing her own novels (Temperance Brennan) and producing the show (Bones) that she would not have the time.
Reichs also stated that if it were true she would be constrained by a confidentiality agreement and non disclosure law in regards to the case.
Media outlets have also reported some members may be working pro-bono. Dr. Henry Lee stated on Nancy Grace, that he was working "pro-bono" on the case.
Casey sure has a way with getting her way, let's just hope she doesn't get away with murder.
