findingcaylee.jpgWill Lee Anthony face charges that he obstructed justice? He's hired a lawyer. Lee's attorney Thomas Luka appeared on Greta van Susteren's show on Fox last night and addressed the issue with guest host Megyn Kelly. Quote:

KELLY: What do you make of these charges, these potential charges? What are you hearing is the possibly basis behind them?

LUKA: Well, first of all, there has been no announcement, formal or otherwise, that there are charges pending against Lee Anthony. This is all speculation and rumor at this time.

What I can tell you is that there has been speculation that he may be charged as an accessory after the fact for some sort of obstruction of justice charge.

The law in Florida, the statue in Florida dealing with obstruction of justice is very broad and gives prosecutors a wide latitude to use that power to charge individuals in order to motivate them to testify against other defendants.
Later, in the same interview, Kelly asked Luka an interesting question: "Does [Lee] still believe in the innocence of his sister?"

And Luka's answer was equally interesting:

At this point, he has not made a determination as to that fact right now. That fact has yet to even be determined--that fact can only be determined by a court of law...
In short, he didn't really answer the question at all, not in any direct way. So you have to wonder if the Anthony family's internal cohesion where defending Casey is concerned has finally begun to crumble.

It looks to me like the Orange County, Florida authorities are putting the screws to the Anthonys in general to get them to cooperate with the investigation. If solid speculation about charging George and Cindy Anthony with obstruction starts popping up in news stories soon, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised. [FoxNews.com]
