Casey anthony- NOT guilty

I'm glad I wasn't one during and especially post trial. Some of those people are going to deal with a lot of shit
 
The thing to remember is that she was found just that... not guilty. She was not found innocent, as some people are acting like. The jurors must have not found enough evidence to find her guilty, and had to default to a not guilty verdict from there. Whether she did it or not, I have no idea. But I just thought I should throw that out there.
 
Somingthing like 75% of women end up hating their child after they are born from anywhere from a month to three years, its not ptsd its something else, and people react differently to death. I still dont believe she isnt innocent though

one word

reasonable doubt.
the defense had proven that there is reasonable doubt although i dont agree with the jury's decision on the 2nd count, of aggravated child abuse, i think that even though the defense said she dies of drowning in the pool some one should have been watching her, and since there wasnt that is aggravated child abuse
 
I know it's fucked up, but you have to look at the justice system. A lawful conviction must be beyond a shadow of a doubt, which they could not have done. Most of the evidence was circumstantial and although it was a compelling case, it in no way proved it beyond a shadow of a doubt. Don't get me wrong, that bitch should have been guilty, but I understand where they are coming from in the verdict.
 
her life is so fucked now. she will never be able to escape the harassing phone calls, murder attempts, etc.. life=gone
 
wait, i know nothing about this and don't have time to do a lot of reading. anyone care to give me brief summary of what happened?
 
LOL @ The american Justice System... what a joke.

It's more fucking Hollywood then anything else - I watched some of the defense closing statement and the language used was SO unprofessional - completley emotionally charged, with very little substance.... it was like watching a Soap opera.... I literally had no idea Lawyers were ACTUALLY allowed to talk like that in the USA, especially in a court room in front of a Judge!

When he made the comparison between a Forensic Anthropologist, not being a chemist - and him saying "I like to drive fast, but that doens't make me a racing driver, even though i'd like to be one" - i nearly fell off my chair... what UTTER shit.... Firstly, forensic anthropolgy is hugely chemistry based... but is much more specific applied chemistry as opposed to general chemistry - and therefore made this a much more credible witness...

Just fucking retards lawyers over here - (Disclaimer - no offense to any lawyers here.... even though i think there mostly canadian anyway..... ha)

 
Thank God! It's so refreshing to know she didn't kill her daughter... And all this time i thought she did!
 
Not sure how I feel. While I hate for innocent people to get locked up for crimes they did not commit, I also cringe at the fact that this crazy psycho is going to essentially walk for a crime that she VERY obviously did commit based on the fact that the entire family did a fabulous job of hiding evidence and making things very turbulent and difficult.

Only solace is that everyone knows shes guilty anyways and will ruin her life. The downside of that though is that she will undoubtedly be a burden on public assistance. Noone is going to hire that woman.
 
and I wonder why I know nothing about this trial.. welcome to Canada, where a duke with a hot wife losing a hockey shootout is more important than real issues.

What a load of bollox.... any country that televizes this shit and turns it in to a giant soap opera where the celebrity of the case becomes bigger then the trial itself is fucking stupid - and this is exactly what happens.

The first time I've ever seen anything like this - and i was kinda shocked that that's the reality of a judge/jury trial over here....

and Yes I can call a so called legal professional - unprofessional - the language they use, the way they convey an argument, the lack of facts and just the general wishy washy bullshit they spouted was horrendous -

But in that case - the Judge let that shit be spouted - which makes him even more unprofessional...

Wouldn't have been allowed in a British Courtroom.... there is no room for sentiment, going off down tangents, irrelavent subjects of discussion.... etc etc...

I'll give you this though - they did their job in term's of having nothing to really go on - but by spouting enough bullshit, for a long enough period (using full 4hrs or whatever it is) to make the Jury members have doubts.... which at the end of the day - as is proven- is all you need over here....

The bottom line is - it's pretty obvious she did it....everyone knows it, in fact - it's a stone wall guilty... but the US justice system saved her from being convicted...

anyway - i'll leave it - im just amazed that she got off with everything really.... will get a max of 4 yrs in prison.... probably be out in 2....
 
ok you said you only watched the closing statements by the defense, and they were very unprofesional as they should, that is when they are trying to relate to the jury and the prosecustion did the same thing.
I had watched the whole trial and i must say what the defense did was confuse the jury where they put doubt in their minds, the prosecution had a good case, but they didnt have a great case and that is why she will be walking free on thursday.
 
Yeah - i haven't watched anything on this - i was just amazed at the way this guy talked... the quite honestly, STUPID statements he made - like the example i gave above.... surely there were people on the Jury who are as smart as i am, and who can see the same thing i see... ?

But you're right - there is nothing you can do if you have the slightest doubt.... that's just the way it is over here.... Murder your kid and as long as the body isn't found for a few years, when a definitive cause of death cannot be 100% ascertained... you're golden!

 
I was just going to post something similar. In my opinion, it's fairly obvious that she, or one of her family members, either killed the kid, or like they claim, had an accident and tried to cover it up. However, the evidence provided wasn't enough to PROVE that she did it, so therefore she has to be let go. It's pretty fucked up, but they can't just throw her in jail on speculation.
 
Is that it now? Case closed - or can she be re-arrested and re-tried if new evidence comes to light?

 
cant happen.. double jeopardy

she can be tried in civil court (oj was found guilty in civil court) but that would not have any punishent
 
My analysis is based on me being a smart as fuck engineer - and listening to a so called professional lawyer being allowed to make crazy statements about him wanting to be a race car driver as if it has any relevance to a case is quite honestly mind blowing.

But if that's how it is, that's how it is..... Im not a lawyer - but ask myself this - how can a legal system be have integrity and robustness when it's turned into a Reality TV show.... ?

Didn't ABC pay for one of the lawyers?

Woozy - you obviously think she didn't do it.... so that's great, and apparently you're right.

Now im off to get on with my life... but get JD in here for the Legal insight... Im clearly not qualified for this discussion.
 
Well - that's frustrating then.... . It's obvious she was involved in her dissapearance/death somehow - her parents know it, she know's it and the defense lawyer definately knows it... but i guess they have to live with all that shit. Didn't the Prosecution present a pretty solid case?

I think ABC paid 200k towards one of the lawyers - obviously to gain some kind of rights after the case was finished.... even that I believe is a huge conflict of interest...

I personally think TV should stay out of court rooms...
 
I'm dissapointed, because personally I believe that she is guilty. But that's just my opinion. I'm not shocked at all though, because there was no real evidence. As much as I'd like to believe that somebody who doesn't report their daughter for a month is guilty for her daughter's death... theres just not enough there to prove it. Such a shitty situation.
