Jose did not scold anyone. He is torn, and you can hear it. He believed Casey innocent, but has concern for Caylee. It was the other guy, his “mentor” who scolded the crowd. And that was disgusting. But I think Jose seems truly humble about the verdict, and even praised the prosecution team.

I caught that. I think he is wrong about TV lawyers. As a lapsed lawyer myself, I think those of the public who have an interest in these sensational cases have a right to have the legal system explained to them. The laws differ all over the country, so having someone who is familiar with a particular jurisdiction or particular judge is useful for these explanations.
That said, they aren’t in the courtroom. They aren’t in the jurors’ room. When the TV lawyers go out on a limb and say ‘for sure’ the defendant will get X punishment, that’s when they go too far. They don’t know and all too often, their predictions come back to bite them in the butt.
I hope that she will be renounced by her parents and end up a pariah, unable to make a living, and the object of jokes, disdain, and derision by all who cross her path.
