Casey Anthony Trial!!!

This is so disgusting,
She sold her soul to the devil,
But one of this days she will get so drunk and she will tell all the true, because the devil is a traidor.
Horrible.0 -
God knows the absolute truth, and He will have justice on whoever murdered Caylee. Just because Casey was found not guilty doesn't mean she won't reap the consequences. God's ways and thoughts are higher than ours...and HE will deal with her.0

dont know anything about this case......... sounds bad........ but if all 12 came back as not guilty then there must be evidence to support that.
i know the death of a child is a bad bad thing and i am not defending that in any way, but there had to be some evidence that pointed 12 random people towards this verdict.
It a justice system, good or bad, agree or disagree, but in a world of hurtful things, its all we have to protect us. Its what makes the West what it is
FREE
(please note any of may friends no wise cracks about the French)0 -
Here is my take and it may not be popular. But the prosecution did not prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. Did Casey kill her daughter? Yes she did. Did the prosecution PROVE she did it? No, they dropped the ball. Instead of relying on evidence they just played on emotions. The defense was able to poke so many holes in what evidence the State did have and in the end the jury followed the evidence and not their emotions. I think that Jose Baez and Cheny Mason had great closing arguments the other day where they attacked the lack of hard evidence. That said, she did just get away with murder. But we all meet our maker one day and she will have to answer for her actions.
This.
Most of you have CLEARLY never served on a jury, nor do you have a grasp on how our criminal justice system works.
I honestly commend the jury for what they did, they were able to do something SO hard and take their emotions out of the equation and make their decision solely based on the evidence presented.
I'm glad some people are paying attention!
Reading everyone's statuses and responses that justice wasn't served, remind yourself she was found guilty of lying...THE ONLY THING THEY COULD PROVE BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT! If it was you on the stand, would you want them to take into account their emotions or the facts?
Also, keep in mind we've been subjected to all the media frenzy surrounding this for over a month now and the jury hasn't. Keep that in mind as you form your opinion of who is guilty of what.
We know that she used to knock her kid out so she could party.
We know that she didn't report her missing for a month.
We know that she showed no emotion over the whole thing.
We know that she lied to the police.
We know the trunk of her car smelled like a dead body.
That was enough to get her. These are facts, not emotions.0 -

I agree with these posts.
I honestly believe that she is guilty but I also believe that the jury did the best they could with the evidence they were presented. The prosecution’s case contained very little hard evidence and a lot of circumstantial evidence. While It is disgusting I am not disgusted with the jurors, I am disgusted with the prosecution for compiling such a week case and allowing a murderer to walk.0 -
Hey if OJ could get away with it, then anyone can. Like Grglandr said it all comes down to the evidence and the jury can only use that in making its decision. Did she do it, most likely, could they prove it, no.0
-
Reading about the verdict made me sick to my stomach. Another child murderer (whether the mom or someone else) got away with the murder. And yet they didn't really get away with anything. God will provide punishment unless the murderer truly repents and asks forgiveness from God. What a sad day. The one consolation is that, because of her young age, little Caylee is definitely in Heaven.0

My jaw dropped to the floor!!! WHAT??????? I am shocked!! Someone is guilty of something here!!! HOW the heck did this little girl die??????? And ?really? why would there be duct tape on her mouth???????? This is wrong on so many levels!!!!!!0

These facts do not prove she murdered her child. They prove she was a crappy mom which she was not on trial for.
As for the car, several people had access to it and they never could prove beyond a reasonable doubt that it was indeed a decomposing human body, let alone that it was Caylee, let alone that Casey had put it there.
So many holes in this story you can't prove it was the crappy mom who murdered her daughter.0 -
From what I heard from those who watched the verdict, Casey and even her parents looks surprised when she was found not guilty. Not enough evidence to convict.0
-
All of this being said...how long til her book deal? 'If I Did It: How I Would Have Murdered My Defenseless 2-Year Old So I Could Party And Also Made Up Confusing and Conflicting Stories And Also Accused My Father And Brother Of Raping Me'?0
-
They jury can only do so much. My boyfriend was just a part of a trial where he so very much wanted to convict a guy but he just couldn't because the evidence wasn't there. They have so many rules and so much that has to be proven to get a guilty verdict. And all of the jurors have to agree...
It's not a problem with the people, it's a SEVERE problem with the system. That horrible woman will get what's coming to her eventually.
I agree. It is really sad. I am sick in my stomach too! But if they had no positive evidence that she did it for sure, than they can't convict her. I don't know all of the details, so I can't say for sure. But WE all know she did it. Poor Caylee.0 -
I had a feeling this was what was goingto happen too much back and forth for them to be sure of the verdict....has to be beyond reasonable doubt...OJ all over again.0

LMAO! OJ's a douche. Still can't believe he got that repulsive book deal.
Let's hope Casey Anthony decides to turn her life around now and do some good things.0 -
I am disgusted by this. Not even guilty on the negligence charge.... just seems impossible.
That little girl died, scared and alone, and no one is forced to take responsibility?
ugh0 -
Am I the only person that does not really seem to care about this?
All I can say is Karma is a B*tch?0 -

Horrible.
Unfortunantly she could confess NOW and cant be re-tried unless the prosecution can PROVE the jury was tainted/incapable.bought out.
The most any of us can hope for is for new evidence to be found (since the FBI and local police NEED to start looking for a new killer) that will tie her to it and she will be found guilty for accessorie to murder, aiding and abeting, and covering up a crime.
IF the state appeals the decision they need to dig up hard evidence. IDK how closely you all followed it but Im not shocked, there wasnt nearly enough HARD EVIDENCE.
And YES people abuse and kill their kids on a regular basis in this country and dont even get caught for YEARS. I think the prosecution fell victim to media pressure and went to trial too soon. A better job needed to be done in securing her fate before putting this infront of a judge, jury, and the entire US0 -
Who will play her on the Lifetime Movie Network version of the story?0

Lets not forget the Scott Peterson trial either. Circumstantial evidence can be used to connect the dots and convict.0 -

Correct but only if the defense cant poke holes in it, or enough successful holes. And unfortunantly for Caylee, her grandparents helped her mother get away with it and helped the defense destroy the prosecutions circumstantail evidence. In the Scott Peterson case her family was against him and he had a STRING of bad marriages/missing/dead wives. If Casey somehow has another child and it ends up dead, she wont make it to trial before someone decides to serve justice themselves0 -
Poor little Caylee Anthony... There will never be any justice for the death of that little girl. Do not avenge yourselves, dear friends, but give place to God’s wrath, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. Just some words for thought for you, Casey Anthony.0

Too sad. This baby is dead and no one is going to be held accountable.0
-
Prosecution dropped the ball. I cant wait to hear what the jurors have to say. Im working but has anyone heard from them? Usually the defense will have a moment with them.
They had to prove without a reasonable doubt which they didnt. You have to take the emotion out of it when youre in the jury box. Is it difficult? Absolutely! Is it necessary? yes.
Right now everyone is upset and emotional. I get it. Im not on Casey's side but this is how it goes. Someone talked about the movies and its so true. We see movies like A Time To Kill and thats TV. Things are messy in the real world. The evidence is not in black and white.
Correct me if Im wrong but werent they unable to even find the real cause of death? Im just asking cause i didnt get to see the trial.0 -
Amen. It is sad but you're correct. Vengence belongs to the Lord0

I didn't watch the whole thing (so I am not as informed as others)...but I thought that Caylee was found to have drowned accidentally in the pool.. will they reopen it as a murder investigation?0 -
Our system isn't so cut and dry. It IS set up to give a person the most benefit of doubt as possible. Prosecution must prove they did it, not show they probably did it. "We need justice and she most likely did it, " is not how our court system runs.
And criminal counts are funny. They each come with a very specific thing they must prove and those things are intentionally hard to prove.
I know this is murder, but ask any spouse of a jealous person if they'd think it's fair to judge on circumstantial evidence rather than actual proof. Sometimes circumstantial evidence is really against someone, but they did not do it. All of the time? No. But sometimes. Our court system is there to protect those sometimes people.
People might think our justice system is flawed for that... I'd rather have a murderer go free, who had to live with their pariah status for the rest of their life... than to have an innocent person die for crimes they did not commit, but we just can't believe that. It makes murders out of everyone if that happens. Her life=ruined.
I'm not against the death penalty... if we have undeniable proof for conviction.0 -
There may have not been enough evidence to convict her of 1st degree murder (Although if I were a juror, that's what I would have went with), but there was absolutely enough to convict her of child abuse or manslaughter (which means her actions/neglect led to her death)0
