Casey Anthony trial starts today...*Found not guilty*

[CowboyMcCoy]

fact - that is not evidence beyond a reasonable doubt she killed her child

What was she doing with the chemicals with which they previously used to bury their pets? Why was she googling these things?

Do you believe her?

If so, why?

I mean, we don't hear her testify. All we get is insinuations, likely thrown out (yet not disregarded by the jury) as to what her defense may be.

I'm usually on your side, playing devil's advocate, but if i'm a defense lawyer and you come to me and I don't believe your didn't do it in a case involving a child...i'm passing, like I would on this case, or throwing in the towel most honorable way a slimy lawyer could.

I know just a tad about criminal law, and I think that the jury was bored with this prosecutor. Of course, I delve a lot into the anthropological aspects of law--not just the obvious.

I really like this clip...

I can't wait in 15 years when she's broke, needs cash and pens a book called, "If I killed my daughter, here's how I would do it."

I'm baffled at people who can't put logical common sense together. Sorry she never took the time to pose a picture with Caylee's decomposing corpse. Seems like that's the only proof they'd accept to convict her.

The detective work was sloppy; seems like the prosecution did an even sloppier job.

Bingo. Emotion and common sense aside.. that's all that really matters in court.

The jurors did what they were supposed to do.. try the case and give their verdict based on the evidence and the guidelines they were instructed to follow. Don't blame them.

True. At least Casey laid out the blueprint on how to get away with murder though. Let the body decompose for 6 months. Give law enforcement the runaround for a month. Most of the vital evidence will be gone by then. And viola! You're a free man/woman

Also, include terrible police work. Could have found the body 6 months earlier had they not ignored three seperate calls about it. How the crap does that happen? Unreal.

By the way, this is what her mother does....after a month.

The child was last in Casey's care!
The child found dead, stuffed in a bag, wrapped in a blanket and duct tape!
Casey said it was the babysitter that didn't exist!

Think about that for one second. If that confuses you or that's not enough evidence, then I feel sorry for your brain cell...because it's awfully lonely in there.

If I leave the house with a child and the child winds up dead left in a swamp, it's my fault unless there's a real explanation as to who else did it. If my excuse was a magic purple rabbit took her, then that I'm sorry, I'm guilty. If you're excuse is to blame someone that doesn't exist....you're either guilty or covering for someone. No one else was proven to have done it so it sits squarely on Casey's shoulders. This is a pretty cut and dry case in my eyes...I have a lot of common sense and my IQ is well past single digits. I have a feeling the jurors were passing around 5 braincells and took turns using them.

Bingo.

Did we ever get an explanation for the phrase tot mom?

How about the video of her defense attorney joking around in front of a courthouse camera like a buffoon?

What an ..

Seems entirely possible the kid drowned and tot moms craziness took over from there

 

[RoyTheHammer]

Bingo.

Not bingo.

If you leave the house with a child and the child winds up dead in a swamp, that doesn't automatically equal you murdered the child and threw the body in a swamp.

I don't think that's possible at all. The entire family would be involved in the cover up if that's the case.

If it's your child and you know your child is missing and you don't report it, then you breech a parental duty--if we're using logic here.

If we're not using logic, you can leave your kid with any old [fictional] clown...have them end up dead, not report it, and just blame it on them...and you, by law, did nothing wrong.

She has a parental duty to protect that child.

Dude.. not reporting your daughter missing does not equal you murdered your daughter.

We're all aware that she's a horrible person, parent, etc.. but what are you trying to prove here?

She's not, by law, guilty of murdering the kid because it simply wasn't proven.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Accidental drowning seems more likely than a Mother snapping and doing what most people couldn't imagine.

I don't know all the facts so I don't know if the father would have to be involved in a cover-up. I heard he was former law enforcement so I don't think he'd be involved in a shoddy cover-up

Or the mother played the role her very intelligent and talented defense attorney wanted her to play--for her daughter's sake.

Think about it. She was still the mother and going out dancing and stuff isn't what you do a month after you know you're child dies....

Her behavior is the most telling thing to me..only because I've dealt with an uncontrollable situation where someone had my child and I wasn't dancing, nor feeling like it.

Unlike Scott Peterson, she has breasts and generally juries don't convict females as much statistically last time I checked.

In any case, poorly done by the state of Florida. Someone killed that little girl.

My hunch is the role of the cop and boyfriend was played in to imply he could have maybe told her not to call and report because she'd potentially be charged with murder by the defense, yet downplayed by the state.

I disagree and will use the old cliche'. The proof is in the pudding....

What if reporting your daughter missing earlier than a month could have saved her life?

Just curious if you think she should be punished at all...
