Casey Anthony's murder trial

[sasvermont]

So, your child can die, and be found in a garbage bag months later, and you can be found not guilty of anything. Maybe the state should have come up with more, lesser charges...but what? Double parking? Well, Casey will have a tough time the rest of her life. She is an odd duck and will have many an opportunity to get in trouble again. She will. No matter where she lives, she will find trouble.

I hope her parents get their lives back to normal, if that is possible. They too seem odd, but Casey the oddest of the lot.

Another little child dies at the hands of a relative. Do I think she drown? Maybe. Then why not have a burial for her? Why toss her away? They buried their pets better than Caylee was treated.

I am surprised the jury came back with this verdict. Juries can do strange things. I have served on juries and I would NEVER want to be judged by a jury of my peers. NEVER!

LOL! I second that!

I hate the verdict. No wonder the jury wont speak to the media. What a 3 ring circus this whole trial was.

I think the jury's verdict was because, it is their job as jurists to prove - beyond a reasonable doubt - that the person is guilty of the crime. The prosecutors never even showed or gave any concrete evidence how Caylee died, everything was based on conjecture and supposition.

She WAS found guilty of lying to the authorities on 4 counts, hopefully the sentencing with be strong enough and include some clause that she not make any money from this whole thing, but I don't know if they can do that without a murder conviction.

Also isnt chloroform(SP?) abuse all in its own?

The presence of chloroform was disputed, and no evidence was given that it was used on Caylee. The court of popular opinion and media hype is not the court of law.
