Roy
Kronk, the Orlando County utility worker who discovered the remains of
two-year-old Caylee Anthony last month, has received a $5,000 reward from a
lawyer who had represented the grandparents of the toddler.
Kronk
received the check from Mark NeJame after the attorney said he felt it was the right
thing to do. NeJame had reportedly received the $5,000 while representing
George and Cindy Anthony and believed that Kronk’s efforts in finding Caylee
Anthony merited the reward.
The
mother of Caylee Anthony, Casey Anthony, remains behind bars and is awaiting
trial on first-degree murder charges in her daughter’s death. Casey Anthony has
denied any involvement in Caylee’s disappearance and death, telling authorities
that she had dropped her off with a babysitter and when she returned both were
gone.
Caylee’s
disappearance sparked numerous searches and grabbed headlines across the country
until Kronk discovered her remains in a plastic bag less than a half mile from the
home she lived in with her mother and grandparents.
Kronk
had alerted police about a plastic bag in a wooded area several times back in
August, about two months after Caylee disappeared. Police failed to act on the calls
and it wasn’t until last week that Kronk acted on his suspicions and uncovered the
bag that contained a small skull and several bones.
A
statement was released by Kronk’s attorney that acknowledged he had received the
reward, “Roy is very thankful that Mark NeJame has recognized his singular
efforts in finding Caylee and hopes that this sends a message to others that
kindness does exist for people who do the right thing in life."
