Beauchemin runs Wicked Weaponry, a gun store in Hooksett, New Hampshire, just outside Manchester.

The pair were seen Wednesday night enjoying food and drinks together at a local sports bar.

Photos show the two smiling and relaxed during their night out.

Sources said the two aren’t officially a couple but are referring to their bond as a “situationship.”

Anthony, now 39, gained infamy during her high-profile 2011 murder trial in Florida, which ended in her acquittal.

She has been accused of killing her 2-year-old daughter Caylee, whose body was found wrapped in duct tape inside a laundry bag.

Anthony kept the toddler’s disappearance quiet for over a month before police got involved, igniting public outrage and media frenzy.

The explosive case captivated the country and turned Anthony into a national pariah.

Now, she is rebuilding her personal life, and has found company in Beauchemin.

Beauchemin previously served in the US Army Rangers and was a police officer before opening his firearms store.

He also skydives in his free time and was recently featured in a January 2024 New York Times article about undecided voters.

“I have a lot of liberal friends, and I sometimes don’t wanna tell them that I own a gun store,” Beauchemin told the Times.

“There’s a part of me that believes it would be business suicide to admit that I am liberal and I just happen to really love the Second Amendment.”

The outlet noted he supports gun rights as well as women’s reproductive freedom.

Infamous Case

Caylee Anthony was last seen alive on June 27, 2008, when she left her grandparents’ Orlando home with her mother, Casey.

Weeks passed with no trace of the 2-year-old until Casey’s mother, Cindy Anthony, discovered her daughter’s deserted car in a parking lot and made a horrifying 911 call.

“There is something wrong,” she told the dispatcher. “I found my daughter’s car today and it smells like there’s been a dead body in the damn car.”

Caylee’s skeletal remains were discovered months later, in December 2008, inside a trash bag dumped in a wooded area behind the Anthony family home.

The body was so badly decomposed that medical examiners couldn’t determine the exact cause of death.

The prosecution charged Casey with allegedly using chloroform to sedate her daughter, then suffocating her with duct tape, and abandoning her body close to her parents’ residence.

Gerardo Bloise, a retired crime scene investigator involved in the case, previously mentioned to The U.S. Sun that the odor emanating from Casey’s car was undeniable.

“I put the vehicle in the garage, and when I opened the driver’s door, man, that blast hit me and I immediately recognized the smell,” he said.

“I’ve been dealing with decomposing bodies for years.”

He said the odor intensified as he checked the rest of the car, and became overwhelming when he opened the trunk.

“That’s when I knew there was a body inside this car [at one time] and it had been in the trunk,” Bloise recalled.

“I relayed the information to detectives and continued to examine the car for the next three months.”

Bloise said he remains convinced that Casey was responsible for Caylee’s death.

“In my opinion, based on what we found inside the car, what investigators found on Casey’s computer […] it’s common sense that Casey was behind this,” he said.

He believes she may have used chloroform to put her daughter to sleep so she could go out and party, but gave her too much and panicked when the child didn’t wake up.

Despite the circumstantial evidence, Casey was acquitted in 2011 after a jury found there wasn’t enough proof to convict her beyond a reasonable doubt.

The verdict that stunned the nation and sparked international outrage and she was dubbed “the most hated mom in America.”
