THR reported Friday that the Paradigm talent agency backtracked on supposed plans to represent Jose Baez, the attorney who defended Casey Anthony to an acquittal her more serious charges this week.
Reports broke Thursday that Paradigm was to represent the lawyer in book, broadcasting, film and TV offerings, but following some backlash from the industry–which has seen its key players voice disapproval over the Florida jury’s ruling–the agency no longer plans to offer the representation.
“We have informed Jose Baez tonight that we will not be representing him,” read an office email Thursday night, according to THR.
