Anthony lives in the South Florida home of Patrick McKenna, a private detective who was the lead investigator on her defense team. She also works for him, doing online social media searches and other investigative work.
McKenna was also the lead investigator for OJ Simpson, when he was accused of killing his wife and acquitted; Anthony said she's become fascinated with the case, and there are "a lot of parallels" to her own circumstances.
She still dreads the supermarket checkout line for fear she'll see photos of her daughter on the cover of tabloid papers. Her bedroom walls are decorated with photos of Caylee and she weeps when she shows off her daughter's colorful, finger-painted artwork. Still, she asserts she is happy.

Watching in the wings was another Florida lawyer, Cheney Mason. A former president of the Florida Association of Criminal Lawyers, Mason, who just that year had been selected by Florida Monthly magazine as one of Florida's top lawyers, was disgusted with the local media coverage about the relatively inexperienced Baez.
I was offended by the fact that he wasn't being treated fairly. I didn't know Baez. I had never met him," Mason said.

She traveled extensively, campaigning on the behalf of women. She spent years promoting the society's cause up until the Civil War. After the Civil War was over, Anthony began focusing more on women's rights. She and Stanton established the American Equal Rights Association in , calling for the same rights to be granted to all regardless of race or sex.
In , Anthony and Stanton also created and began producing The Revolution , a weekly publication that lobbied for women's rights. The newspaper's motto was "Men their rights, and nothing more; women their rights, and nothing less. Anthony was tireless in her efforts, giving speeches around the country to convince others to support a woman's right to vote. She even took matters into her own hands in , when she voted illegally in the presidential election.
Even in her later years, Anthony never gave up on her fight for women's suffrage. However, it wouldn't be until 14 years after Anthony's death — in — that the 19th Amendment to the U.
