The trial started today, and I it's going to be a LONG one. It's being broadcast live on t.v. I'm sure most remember the story - Casey is accused to murdering her daughter Caylee in FL a few years ago. Frankly - I thought she was guilty for all I had heard over the years - but now??? - not so sure anymore.
I didn't get to hear the prosecution's opening statements, but I did hear the defense's! Holy cow - that lawyer turned the whole thing upside down - and what he was saying was very credible and believable. Casey's family was dysfunctional - father abused her, etc, - Caylee accidentally drowned in the family swimming pool, the meter reader that found the body is suspicious, and on and on. I was mesmerized.
One thing I don't understand, and maybe Johanna is reading this and can answer. If Casey's parents are to testify, then how could the judge give them permission to be in the courtroom thruout the whole trial?? Hearing other testimony by witnesses and arguments by the attorneys, could influence how they answer when they have to testify. The father was already on the stand today, I think he's lying thru his teeth!!! I smell a rat.
Has anyone else been following this case at all? If so - what do you think??

For those of you that are home during the day, and you find murder mysteries interesting, then you should watch it. It is on TRUTV and HLN if you get these stations on cable.
