During the trial of Casey Anthony, her defense lawyers alleged that Kronk may have had something to do with little Caylee Anthony's murder. They tried to prove to the court that Kronk was a violent and untrustworthy man. Kronk's ex-wife Jill Kerley said that she was beaten by him in 1992 and he bound her hands with duct tape. His other ex-wife, Crystal Sparks said that Kronk "talks so many untruths" and that when he does tell the truth, "you just can't believe it." The comments made by his ex-wives were recorded on video tape and the defense attorney's planned to use the videos during the trial. The defense team filed a motion in November 2009 asking the court to allow the video interviews to be used.http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/caylee-anthony-defense-takes-aim-meter-reader/story?id=9134848
