    Everyone wants to condemn this woman to hell but only God can do that. Honestly, as a woman in pursuit of my law degree I pretty much, after reading all the evidence don't think that she killed Caylee in cold-blood. I think that she made the bad choices as a young mother and was a horrible parent (like tons out there) and one of her times drugging Caylee so she could go out went over the top and she ended up accidentally killing her daughter. After that, she got the help of her parents to try and cover it up. I honestly believe that is was a horrible accident that they won't ever own up to because it would be negligent homicide on the part of her parents too. She defiantly should have been found guilty of the negligence and child abuse but not capital murder.

    Oh, and don't worry about her living her life outside. She will move to California and live with the rich people who DO get away with everything and there she will live out her life, with all the money she is going to make. Oh, and that money....we can all thank the MEDIA for because if they hadn't made this case the gargantuan one that it became, Casey Anthony would have just been another woman being tried for killing her kid. Oh, and just so everyone who may not know, there are hundreds of those same cases that are tried in our courts each and every year, and most of those children never get justice.

    The court of public opinion is something that must be set aside when you really look at the evidence, or lack there of. The state simply didn't prove their case and there were none of her friends or family that were going to turn on her, the state gambled and lost the house!

    I could never make the jump that a precious 2 year old accidentally died and ended up in a swamp with 3 pieces of duct tape on her mouth!! No way. That is no accident. People who dont believe the state proved its case, seem to believe its an accident. Theres not any proof of this.Many are ready to jump on the grandparents, for what? There is no eveidence they had anything to do with this at all. At some point in every adults life, you have to quit blaming your parents and take responsibilites for your own actions.

    And the Media can't be blamed, they are just doing a job. Its up to us, the public, to show that we will not support this type of behavior. Dont buy the book or watch interviews that will be coming out. I would never watch or buy anything OJ Simpson was attached to and I won't anything that has Casey Anthony tied to either. It is a very sad day. We too often forget about the victims!

    I completely agree with you.

    As far as her moving and making money, some big porn producer has supposedly offered her a movie deal to her lawyer. I can totally see her doing that maybe in a year or so

    It was reported this morning that the porn deal was pulled off the table due to the public outrage over the verdict...too controversial even for the porn industry!!!
    According to the media, she owes the IRS $68,000 for not paying taxes on the $200,000 she and her lawyer were paid for an interview with ABC early on. Also, she is being held financially responsible for the investigations and searches for Caylee based on her lies. Who knows how much that will be total, but at least she wont be "banking it" as others have said. The whole thing makes me ill.

    Well.....i was surprised too when i heard their verdict. Thing is one of the judges said they were just like a family. Like a bunch of cousins. A lot of people get used to their group..they become close like a family or just plain wanna fit in so if someone says something....a lot of them may not have wanted to make enemies so they went along with it. Which is ridiculous since one they prob will never meet again and two...it was about a child's death. But eh just goes to show.....someone certainly raised those buncha....donutholes right!

    First i wanted to say...i admire that you are saying what you believe even though i am sure you know most dont agree with you. I find that very admirable since most people dont. Haha well i do but that's a different story.

    But along other lines. I am just curious to see what you find as no evidence. I mean...okay...say your a mother. Your child...not your teen...your baby...goes missing for a month..yet you dont report her missing:noway: ...that in itself says....HELLLLLOOOO.

    Also....she was left in the trunk of...not your neighbors car...but YOUR car. Idk...that also says.....HELLOOOOO.

    I don't like the verdict, but all along I was saying that they didn't have enough evidence to prove anything other than she was/is a lying, conniving terrible mother who didn't report her daughter missing for a month. I was surprised that she wasn't charged(and convicted) with something that would keep her in jail for at least some amount of time.

    True...but that was only two things....that wasn't all of the evidence they found. I just stated a couple in curiosity to how come some people didn't think their was enough....just curious to know what others think. Thanks for replying to it:)

    Unfortunately though, that is circumstantial evidence and generally doesn't fly when asking a room full of 12 adults if it passes the muster of reasonable doubt. That's not proof.

    I've had people make personal judgements against me for things I didn't do, because to them, it just made sense that I did based on the circumstances. People do this all the time and call it common sense, except common sense sometimes flies in the face of truth.

    I'm not saying she didn't do it, I'm just saying without further evidence...

    i work for a local tv station in orlando.
    we were "wall to wall" with the Casey Anthony trial coverage.

    i honestly believe that if the jury had heard some of the things they weren't allowed to hear (ie: those many times they were escorted out of the courtroom so the lawyers could debate something), they would have found Casey Anthony guilty.

    She's scheduled to be released next week.

    I don't think she did it. She might know who did it but i dont believe she killed her little girl. Those pictures of her and caylee show that she loved her and still does love her. i do agree that she should be in jail for lieing to police and i dont think she should have lied about anything and i do agree with that she should have reported caylee missing right away, but people do make mistakes. I'm not saying its okay but what about the grandparents? Why didnt Cindy call the police until a month later? Why didnt anyone else worry either? I believe it was someone else. why didn't they look into anyone else? So, they believe everything everyone else says? Cindy lied to the court, why doesn't she go to jail? Why don't they question her and her husband more? What about the meter reader who called the police THREE times saying he found a body and there was none there until the 3rd time?

    I'm really sad as I don't feel that little girl got any justice.

    However, there is no real evidence that proves she killed her and since Florida has the dealth penalty, you have to be open minded and really examine the evidence brought forth....the state did not do a good job in proving she was at fault.. Does she probably know exactly what happened or who may have killed Caylee? I wouldn't put it past her. I had hoped they couldve gotten her on some sort of negligence for not reporting the girl missing, but not doing that isn't an actual crime..just makes her a sh*tty mother.

    She'll get what's coming her way, and I'm really disappointed that she's getting time served.

    Frankly I wouldn't be surprised if someone off's her out in public because it seems that the general public are REALLY pissed....interested to see how the next few weeks go.

    RIP Caylee

    Coming from someone who has worked on a psychiatric unit: Just because it appeared in pictures and videos she loved her, it does not mean she isn't mentally ill enough to murder her daughter and then party, have wet body contests, and plan trips to Puerto Rico while her daughter's body is decomposing.

    If she didn't do it, wouldn't she be the slightest bit concerned where her daughter was for 31 days? That's a loving mother..

    EEEK! Really??!! Are you saying she loved her daughter soooo much that on the day the"nanny" kidnapped her ( her original story), it was ok to go to blockbuster, rent movies and go back to her boyfriends house and get freaky?? She loved her so much that 2 days after that she went to shake her butt and smile for the camera? or lets go with the "drowning' theory... she drowned and went on with her life as stated above and partied hard like nothing happened?? Regardless what story she used, what mom doesn't report their kid missing!!!!----FOR 31 DAYS!!! That alone is cupable negligence. Reckless disregard to a human life!!

    “To find aggravated manslaughter of a child, the State must prove beyond a reasons doubt two elements” JUDGE PERRY told the Court. First, the jury must find Caylee Marie Anthony is dead. (CHECK) Second, they must find that Casey Anthony’s acts caused the death of Caylee or that the death of the Caylee was caused by culpable negligence by Casey Anthony. (CHECK, SHE DIDN'T REPORT, ELUDED POLICE IN FINDING HER CAUSING THEM TO GO ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE-HER WORDS- AND NOT SAY HEY THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED OR SHE IS AT THIS SPOT OR THE NANNY KIDNAPPED HER OR WHATEVER WAS THE STORY OF THE DAY) Judge Perry told the court that a "culpable negligence" exists when you do an act, or follow a course of conduct (hello!!!) , that you should have known would cause harm to others. Perry thereafter focused on the “of a child” section of the charge. HE SAID ( HE TOLD THE JURORS) that Casey was Caylee’s caregiver (hello!!). Perry said that a parent is defined as a caregiver; a child is defined as anyone under age 18; and the negligent of a child by a caregiver can be exhibited with lack of food, nutrition, clothing, shelter, supervision and medical services essential for the welfare of the child. Reckless disregard to human life (cup negligence)- no supervision (check).

    You couldn't charge her with the first charge, not enough evidence, but she should have been charged with aggravated manslaughter and aggravated child abuse.

    Well, lightening struck down on a tree where her remains were found today after sentencing today..... it's only the beginning.
