OVIEDO, Fla. -- It's been 28 days since now 3-year-old Caylee Anthony was reported missing. Caylee's grandfather told Eyewitness News on Tuesday that she was kidnapped and the people that have her are being watched.
George Anthony told Eyewitness News he was supposed to meet in Oviedo on Tuesday morning with "people assisting outside the normal scope of things" and he seemed to suggest that the people are doing surveillance on kidnappers who he believes have his granddaughter.
"These people know they are being watched. They know it," George told Eyewitness News on Tuesday morning.
"Who are these people?" WFTV reporter Derrol Nail asked.
"I really can't get into that with you," George said.
"Are there people out there who can help you find these people?" Nail asked.
"Yeah, you would think that the people who have my granddaughter right now would be smart enough to turn this girl back in to her family. I don't want anymore of this going on," he said.
"You really believe that, George, with all the evidence out there to the counter?" Nail asked.
"Oh, deeply. You know something? Stuff that's out there so far, I hope I can say this as politely as I can, evidence that's out there is circumstantial. Evidence that's out there is being drawn up in someone's mind. Just because some things look like it's going in one way, it could go in a totally different way," he said.
During his time in Oviedo on Tuesday morning, he passed out shirts and fliers to random strangers who came up to him, but the person who he said he was supposed to meet in Oviedo didn't show up.
Eyewitness News asked if he has hired a private investigator and he would only say that the people who are doing the surveillance are private people who are helping him.
After his brief conversation with Eyewitness News, George hit the road with a Caylee billboard in tow. He said he plans on driving it to Sanford and possibly Daytona if time allows.
PSYCHIC TEAM SEARCHING FOR CAYLEE
It's been 28 days since now 3-year-old Caylee Anthony was reported missing and a psychic has joined the efforts to find her (See Images | Raw Interview).
Gale St. John said she had a vision of a place in Orlando near a lake, surrounded by trees and wildflowers. That is where she believes Caylee Anthony can be found, but not alive.
"It's just a feeling that we have. We don't like to talk about it because it hurts us," Gale St. John said.
St. John was the star of a planned cable TV show, The Body Hunter, and now she has a team searching an area near Lake Conway with cadaver dogs. Gale said that she was not just doing it for TV, she was also asking for donations on her website.
Since the low budget show has not debuted yet, St. John said donations were the only way she could afford to travel.
"Geez, I wish I wasn't losing my house right now. So if I'm making a profit somehow, it's not doing me a lot of good," she said.
St. John has not promised anything, but said she had something to offer.
"Can we be wrong? Yes, but we're doing more than sitting around talking about someone missing," said St. John.
