Anthony is learning about the business from private investigator Patrick McKenna, who was the lead investigator on his defense team during the 2011 trial, according to the Daily Mail, which was the first to report on the new business.

In recent years, Anthony has lived with McKenna in a home in South Florida, according to the Daily Mail, and has also worked for him, doing research on online social media and other investigative work.

McKenna was also the principal investigator for OJ Simpson, when he was accused of killing his wife and was not found guilty.
