Casey Anthony's murder trial

[pomtzu]

I also noticed that the attorney has had somewhat of a makeover. She now has a stylish haircut and she's wearing makeup. I guess if you're going to make the rounds on the talk circuit, you have to look pretty. When you're defending someone in a murder case, not so much.

LOL - kind of like Marcia Clark, the prosecutor in the O.J. trial. Quite a striking difference in the before and after with her.

And how about all these lawsuits that are now popping up to slap Casey with? Even if they win - and some most likely will - how do they ever expect to collect any $$$. You can't get blood out of a turnip. I suppose they could order her to pay with any future earnings, but I don't really think she's going to make much by attempting to tell her side of the story of Caylee. I heard she may be headed for Puerto Rico when she gets out on Sunday. I also heard that the people of P.R. don't want her there either. I say ship her to some deserted island in the middle of the ocean!

Give me a break. She has a team. I wish her luck leaving jail on Sunday. I hope her "team" takes care of her, better than she took care of her daughter.

I just cannot believe that a child is dead and no one is responsible for it. No one. Nadda. Not only did she die, but her body was tossed in a swamp to rot and be eaten by wildlife. How cruel. No one is responsible for this either. I cannot believe that the police could not establish who Caylee was with during her missing time.

What goes around, comes around. I don't like that expression but I hope it applies to this matter.

Casey will be in for a rude awakening when she leaves jail. She better high tail it out of town to some remote location.

If I never hear her name again, it will be too soon.

I hope her parents, for as odd as they are, recover and love their son and his wife as much as they can, to get over that freak of a person, Casey, they birthed.

Amen.

I see that there are already petitions on their way to the President to try her under Federal jurisdiction.....I got this one on Facebook today.
If anyone wants to sign it, I'll give you the link.

Under the separate sovereign doctrine, a defendant may be prosecuted for the same offense by separate sovereigns, such as State and Federal governments. Heath v. Alabama, 474 U.S. 82, 88, 88 L. Ed. 2d 387, 106 S. Ct. 433 (1985)

Florida v. Casey Marie Anthony was state-level, and the FBI's involvement - along with false statements made to the FBI by Ms. Anthony - makes it possible for the Federal Government to prepare a case against Casey Marie Anthony.

The Fifth Amendment regarding "Double Jeopardy" and its exceptions, which include prosecution by separate sovereigns so long as each unit draws their authority from separate sources of power:

This will never end -

Casey Anthony, acquitted of charges that she murdered her daughter Caylee, filed an appeal today of her conviction that she lied to law enforcement officers.

How in the world can she appeal that??? She's on tape lying for everyone to hear!

Online petitions carry no weight, and frankly I'd rather the President and Congress stick to other important matters at the moment.

Yes, I've been told that before about online petitions, but they deserve some sort of credit for at least trying I guess.

But didn't she plead guilty to the charges too?? - I thought she did. And on different occasions, her attorneys stated that she lied to authorities. I don't get it! And so now some guy in prison in SC says he could be the father and wants DNA testing - and if he is that he will file a wrongful death suit against Casey. I wonder who will come up with what, next??? This is getting to sound more and more like a very poorly written soap opera - only worse.

Did you happen to see the woman who claimed that b/c she resembles Casey that someone ran her off the road and her car overturned twice? She said that the woman called her a baby killer, etc. I think it's bogus. Just b/c her haircut is like Casey's WAS doesn't mean she looks at all like her. Say what we will about Casey, she's an attractive girl, much more so than the doink who wants her 15 minutes, both she and her mother.

Anything to get her the attention she wants I think.

I read that she is also going to need a safe house and body guard. How is she going to pay for those? She is supposed to be broke. Hope lawyers plan to adopt her.

People, mostly men, have been sending her money during the 3 years she was in jail. That's how she was able to buy cosmetics, personal products, etc. and at one point she was overdrawn. She has at least $500 to leave jail with and the average prisoner has 30 some dollars when they leave. People are stupid enough to send her money, people that don't even know her, so I'm sure she'll play upon the sympathy and generosity of others to get by.

She's going to go from one jail to another. For all her dreams of going out dancing and drinking and more tattoos, she's going to be stuck in a safe house somewhere.

This is without doubt a part of the OJ Simpson conspiracy.

I heard Jose Baez say that people are sending in checks for her, and some large amounts too, not just a couple of $$ here and there. Also, people have been offering her safe havens to hide out in, such as large ranches, etc, psychiatric counseling, and a lot of other services. And they say that crime doesn't pay????? Guess the person that coined that phrase, had no way of knowing the likes of people like Casey Anthony!

And her lawyers will see to it that she gets everything she needs (and wants). If she wasn't an attractive, young female, I doubt that they would be so accommodating. The way she flirts and bats those eyelashes at Jose just makes me sick. Does anyone think that some guy would get the same special treatment that she is getting???? - I doubt it.

I think think broad is just plain SKEEZY and anyone that has anything to do with her is just beggin' for trouble and should have their head examined. That said, I sure hope she ties to stay out of trouble and doesn't physically harm anyone else again. Don't really think I should hold out much hope of that though. One can always pray.....
