Inside Casey Anthony's Relationship With Patrick McKenna

While Patrick McKenna has been most closely associated with Casey Anthony for upwards of a decade, the private investigator is a veteran of his field, so to speak. As InTouch Weekly noted in their own recent summary of McKenna's life and career, the veteran PI first became a household name in the early '90s — years before Anthony's lengthy trial — as a key figure in the O.J. Simpson trial. Per the magazine, McKenna was the one who discovered an audio recording of Mark Fuhrman — a former Los Angeles detective who reportedly found a bloody glove alleged to be worn by Simpson during the murders of Simpson's ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman — in which Fuhrman spewed racist language and frequently used racist epithets. The recording was instrumental in Simpson's subsequent acquittal of all charges. 

McKenna again surfaced as a subject of media scrutiny during and after Anthony's trial, when she was acquitted of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, but was found guilty in 2011 of giving false information to police authorities in 2008. Despite the fact that, per Florida law, Anthony was sentenced to a year-long incarceration and a $1,000 fine, she was given credit for time served and was released shortly following her sentencing hearing. After leaving prison, however, Anthony reportedly went to live with McKenna — sparking rumors as to what, exactly, their relationship entailed.
