(September 5, 2008)--The mother of a missing Florida toddler was released from jail again Friday.

Casey Anthony posted a half million dollars bond for a second time, Friday.

She is charged with child abuse and making false statements to investigators.

Her daughter, 3-year-old Caylee Anthony, was reported missing in mid-July from Orlando, but the girl hadn't been seen for a month before Anthony told authorities.

Detectives said the trunk of Anthony's car had contained a decomposing body and that it was likely her daughter's.

However, no other charges have been filed against Anthony.

Prosecutors had asked for a high bond, hoping Anthony wouldn't be able to get out.

I have seen better results from television CSI. I do not understand why the system does not hold her without bail. Do they think she will make a mistake and lead them to the baby? That is the only thing I could think of as to why they keep letting her out on bail. Unless she has a big bank account someone is helping this sicko.

I say stop all the media attention for this story and pathetic family, IGNORE them and all their theatrics! Once the spotlight is shifted to a real missing child, that Anthony beatch will be singing like a bird, she is eating up all this attention, and as long as she can keep people strung along and guessing, she will.I bet, in her sick, twisted mind, she is getting such a sick thrill of EVERYBODY WANTING HER! She burned that child's body, and with all the rain in Florida, no evidence will ever be found. She may get away with this, but someone, somewhere, will find her in a club, partying with her friends, and introduce her to justice!

I don't understand why charges have not been filed against this mother if they have evidence that a decomposing body was in the trunk.
