10 Beautiful But Shockingly Brutal Female Killers

1. Casey Anthony

Casey Anthony became one of the most notorious women in the world when she went on trial for the murder of her 2 year old daughter, Caylee Anthony. Caylee Anthony went missing in July 2008, and her mother was charged with Caylee's murder in October of the same year. In what would become one of the most talked-about murder trial of the 21st century, hundreds of pieces of evidence were presented in a case against Ohio-born Casey Anthony. Prosecutors sought the death penalty for Casey Anthony. Circumstances weren't on Casey's side: She was partying while her daughter was missing, her car - according to Caylee's grandmother - smelt like there had been a dead body inside it. More damning still, an internet search on chemical chloroform was found on the Caseys' computer. There had been chloroform detected in the trunk of Casey's car. Despite this evidence and Casey's conflicting testimony provided to police, the jury made the hugely controversial decision to find Casey not guilty of her daughter's murder in July 2009. She now walks free, unencumbered by the damning title of murderer but plagued by the legacy of her highly-publicised legal battle. What did you make of this list?
