Caylee Doll Outrages Anthony Family

I think this guy is a SCUMBAG!
************************************************** ************************************************** ***
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/...,6550304.story

A Jacksonville promotions company came under fire Monday after it announced its latest product: a doll inspired by slain toddler Caylee Marie Anthony.

The Inspirational Caylee Sunshine Doll, which plays a song when her bellybutton is pushed, is on sale for $29.99 at cayleedoll.com.

Late Monday afternoon, the lawyer representing Caylee's grandparents, George and Cindy Anthony, was outraged.

"This is an example of another person trying to profit from the tragedy of Caylee's death," lawyer Brad Conway said. "He has never met my clients, spoken to my clients and has not gotten authority of any type to do this. And after I have a chance to research it, I will likely take whatever legal action I can."


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Initially this guy claimed he is "planning" to donate money from the doll to some charity but he is waiting to hear back from various ones. He says he is donating $3 per doll to the charity (Out of $29.99 charged per doll) and the public doesn't understand the production expenses associated with the production of the dolls.

On the Cayleedoll.com website in small print at the bottom you will see a disclaimer that contains this....."The distribution of donations to any charity is done so at the discretion of CayleeDoll.com. All names, characters, images and logos on this site are protected by copyright, and other Intellectual Property Right laws. All rights in the products and creations are owned by CayleeDoll.com. "

Since this hit the media, the website now states: It was our intention to begin the sale of the Sunshine Caylee Doll at 12:00pm January 27, 2009. As we mentioned to the media in our press release it was very important that we allow the press to present our idea to the public first, in an effort to measure the reaction to our fund raising efforts. As the story developed we also announced that we would be donating 100% of the profits to charity. However, after reviewing the response to our media introduction of the Sunshine Caylee Doll and listening to the advice of the general public. We feel that is it best to suspend the launch of The Sunshine Caylee Doll.
While we still feel it is important to raise awareness and raise money to help stop this type of crime from being committed. We feel we can be more effective using more traditional methods.

We would like to that everyone who made comments or called us to express their opinion.

Sincerely,
Jaime Salcedo

I think its very sad. As for the Anthony family....there were rumors that Casey is in talks with numerous agency to *sell* her story as well. Which...to me, is just as bad as the doll idea. Its sad what people will do for buck..

She better hurry...Isn't there a law that says convicted felons cannot sell their stories to make a profit?

I'm glad that it sounds like the sale of the doll has been suspended. I bet I know why the only reason he suspended it...can you say lawsuit? As the OP said...this guy is scum. He'd probably sell his own mother if he could make a quick buck. What a creep. ~Lisa

I wonder if they were as outraged about the death of Caylee?
