Casey Anthony's murder trial

[kaycountrygal]

The defense would not want me on the jury. I would find her GUILTY. It is very sad to see photos of that pretty sweet little child. Many people would have wanted her and loved her. I really believe Casey killed Caylee because she was in the way... cramping her party lifestyle. Can you imagine partying and getting a tatoo while your child is missing??? Beyond belief! I wouldnt be able to do anything if my DOG or CAT was missing, let alone a child. That Casey is a cold one.

I also think Casey has some mental problems or is disconnected or something wierd going on with her but still, I think she should be punished for killing Caylee. I doubt that she will get the death sentence but I hope she gets many many years in prison. I will be very upset and mad if she is found not guilty because imo she is guilty.

I keep thinking of the Susan Smith case. It still haunts me that someone could drive a car into a lake with too small babies buckled in their car seats. And she did it on purpose because she thought the man she was chasing at the time wouldn't take her if she had them. Like he would want a murderer?

I had nightmares for weeks thinking of those babies crying for her, the one person in the entire world they trusted to keep them safe, to save them.

I really do think Casey will only do jail time. Even if she would be on death row, there would be years and years of appeals.

Just wonder if she will think the wonderful life will be worth all she may go through.

I thought Baez did a decent job of defense and I was thinking that if I were on the jury, I'd have to find her not guilty by reasonable doubt. Not that I think she's not guilty, b/c I don't, but I felt there just wasn't enough evidence to convict her. However, when Jeff Ashton and Linda Drane Burdick came on w/their rebuttal, they brought back a lot that I had forgotten or hadn't heard b/c I missed some of the trial. Then I changed my mind. Guilty of murder one, IMO. The longer the jury is out, the better it is for her. I do think, though, that she'll be found guilty of a lesser charge and probably not do life. Who knows. This whole case has been a mystery to me.

I wonder what theatrics will be displayed by any or all of the Anthony family when the verdict is read? I'm certain the judge will warn against any displays, but I look for something anyway, in spite of what he says.

This is something that's been bugging me: who does Casey's clothes? Who does the laundry, brings her clean clothes, shampoo and personal hygiene products, etc? She wears a different outfit each day so who is responsible for seeing to it that she's presentable, that she can take a shower, do her hair and makeup, etc?

At this point, I would assume it's her defense team providing it - telling her what to wear, how to fix her hair, etc. You notice that there's no jewelry or tight tops like she was accustomed to wearing, except for one day when they wanted to point out her non-existent belly bulge. Make her look plain and simple with those oxford type shirts and her hair pulled back. Doesn't even look like she has on makeup, other than some mascara. It's probably that lady lawyer that always sits next to her, making sure that she looks the part of Miss Innocent, as she appears to be playing the part of surrogate mother or big sister. Just a guess..........

Yes, you're probably right. The female atty. that's so mothering to her could take a lesson or two on hair styling, that's for sure. Her hair looks like a dust mop.

Now that you mention it, I'm wondering the same thing Ellie. I've been watching Casey these past few days and her expression never seems to change, I can't help but wonder what's going through her mind as the jury decides her fate.

There have been a lot of comparisons between this trial and OJ. I've noticed one big difference. Unlike Judge Ito, Judge Perry never lost control of the trial. He hasn't tolerated anything and has been pretty tough on both attorneys, he even said there may be sanctions against both after the trial. The Judge really came down on the spectator that gave the prosecutor half a peace sign.

Are George and Cindy there anywhere? I haven't seen either of them.
