You might remember a story last week about how the Jerry Springer Show offered Casey Anthony $1-million to appear on the show. After a storm of public outcry Jerry flatly denied it. But now the producer who set the deal up is trying to do it again.

Independent producer Al Taylor has worked on several shows – including Jerry’s. It was he who made the original offer for Casey to be on Jerry’s show – which Jerry later denied. But Al’s not about to let trivial things like common sense and good taste deter him – he’s now formed his own company and made the offer again:

I spoke to you last Friday about the million dollar offer from The Jerry Springer Show I made to (Casey’s lawyer) Jose Baez,” says Al in an email to Anthony’s legal team. “It’s now apparent my freelance clients are afraid to follow through because of public backlash…but I have now formed my own independent TV production company ‘Private Elevator Productions’ and we are officially making an offer of $1-million for the first interview with your client.”

And there’s more:

We would like to meet as soon as possible to present you with a million dollar check made out to your client, so we can sign a contract and conduct the interview as soon as your client exits jail.”

Casey, 25, was found not guilty of murder on July 5 and is due to leave jail on Sunday. Since the verdict arrived she’s received death threats and hate mail and is reportedly planning to change her name and appearance and even move to another part of the country to avoid the same fate many people still feel she imposed on her daughter.

And if all that doesn’t leave you feeling unwell, try this: As of this morning Casey has received $472 in donations from anonymous supporters who think the verdict was fair. And jail staff say the cash is still pouring in.

So which do you think she will find more important – the money or staying alive? The verdict may be in but this case is not over yet – Let’s hear your reaction to this latest twist…
