Tell me it isn’t disturbing to watch people here who see two plus three plus five plus one, and then state that there is no proof these equal eleven.

People think murder cases are all wrapped in some neat little ball, every loose end tied up, just like on T.V. It doesn’t work that way off T.V.

In the real world, you have to weigh the evidence and come to the most likely conclusion. In this case, the most likely conclusion was that Anthony was guilty as could be.

Yep mom got off. Justice was served. Yep, it was served for everyone except the little dead girl. Aw, who gives a rats ass about her anyway? A lot fewer than I thought it seems.

I notice the same legalize drugs cop hating pro homosexual marriage Liberaltarians, who cried for months that SWAT in Arizona are “murderers” despite the evidence and investigation to the contrary - are now legal experts gloatingly siding with this horrible woman.

Think about that if you say justice was done in this case.

I was quoting another freeper, dude, just read...I didn’t get that from Baez....sheesh...

You don’t have to be rude just b/c someone has a different opinion than you do.

Since you know so much, would you mind filling me in and explaining to me the whole meter reader deal....the whole scene with the deputy....I admit I missed that part.

And tell me why George Anthony lied over and over on the stand....

I’m not saying the girl didn’t do it....as I’ve posted NUMEROUS times....it’s hard to convict without a cause of death, for one....the prosecution stuck to one cause of death story which they couldn’t prove, for 2....and so they boxed themselves in. The jury had no other choice, if they were to be honest, but to acquit....BASED ON THE EVIDENCE.

Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but you don’t have to be rude and condenscending just because someone doesn’t go with the flow and join the mob mentality of jury hate.

No, I’m not saying that a fingerprint would have been the answer to it all. I am saying that I think the case created way more questions than it even started with. George Anthony lied on the stand. That bothers me. He’s hiding something. Also, I am bothered by the meter reader and his moving/not moving the body....I did miss that part of the trial...I missed part of the issue about the deputy being rude and not looking just a few feet from where he was standing for the body or something. Can you fill me in there?
****************************************

OK, let’s say George is lying about an affair, this will sound horrible but I don’t give a chit, really—so what— who could blame him?!

George wasn’t a saint, once Cindy strong-armed George into to leaving the police force,leaving Ohio for Florida—he never really made ‘good’ again. Cindy the nurse carried that family.

George had gambled a good bit and as I understand it, that’s why he left the house in the months shortly before all this. He gambled away much of Cindy’s money.

If George was a chester-molester, and he was out of the house—why didn’t Casey take that opportunity to tell Cindy about his molesting ways, keep him out and away from her and Caylee.

After all, her friends say she was PISSED George had moved back into the home and had even told her frinds SHE would have the house, so much so her friend Amy strated having her mail directed to the Anthony home.

A cheater, and a liar does not a killer and cover-upper make. You want evidence of Casey guilt, you got it, but you have NONE against George but are willing to make that leap on a “ feeling” a liar. I propose Casey was a liar with more evidence against her—SHE was on trial, not George.

Krunk(sp?), the ‘meter-reader’ moved the body? OK, explain this one to me...I. am. confused.

You but the tape theory? Then why is the tape so degraded in such a short time? The Krunk theory doesn’t have legs, sorry there is just nothing reasonable AT ALL to hang the old hat on.

I also wonder why weather was never brought up by the state.

Read the evidence online like many of us did.

Maybe then you can insult the rest of us with your knowledge of the trial instead of just repeating things that aren’t true while telling the rest of us how stupid we are for thinking she should be in prison for cold blooded murder of her daughter.

Why don’t you show us the EVIDENCE of an accident? Just one little piece of EVIDENCE since that is what the jurors based their decision on according to the alternate juror.

ACCIDENT...no evidence just Jose Baez unethically throwing that nonsense out in his opening with no damn intention of ever presenting ANY EVIDENCE. But, hey, what the hell, he won, which is what this is all about.

Party on, JOSE!

You do know that she tried to set up her boyfriend before Jose came up with the molestation by her father and /or Lee?

I just love how some of these people claim we are a lynch mob because there was no evidence to convict but they are willing to buy Jose’s argument of an accident with no evidence, then they admit they didn’t watch the trial (or read the transcripts) which presented the evidence.

But we are the stupid ones...Color me confused.

Maybe calling people a lynch mob without knowing the evidence yourself will make people a little defensive. Just a thought.

I don’t see this case as one with the constitution in the balance and yes most class A felony cases which actually go to trial are presented as much through a preponderance of circumstantial.

And most....vast majority are found guilty

I have a fair amount of courtroom time myself at all perspectives criminal and civil and have found it works great circumstantial or not

I don’t like folks telling me what to do except my wife...I’m sure you are a wonderful mom and I did not criticize that but find your pronouncement a bit odd for a woman mommied up enough to call herself mom on the forum

Every mom I know despises this verdict...without exception

I admit, I am rusty and I can only really recall 2008 stuff—I fell off the map after that.

What I recall from then—I am disappointed by some evidence that the state didn’t bring in. I have watched almost every second of the trial, though.

I can only suspect the state was scared of opening those doors—why? I surely couldn’t be worse than THIS.

More information is better than less and as much as I think Perry is a good and fair Judge, his rush, rush, hurry, hurry took it’s toll. We see that now.

That is my opinion of this big mess. Casey walks free but we were on schedule by gosh!

No one sits in jail for three years afraid to report an accident of their daughter. No one lies about a missing daughter for 31 days. No one drives around with a dead body to the point of decamp over an accident. No one wraps their dead child in a garbage bag and throws her in the woods to rot over an accident. No one goes out to rent a movie and/or to party the day after your daughter is found dead.

Just everyday common sense tells me this. And not hundreds/or thousands of sleazy lawyers could convince me otherwise.

Have you been a case junkie from day one throughout or only followed the trial?

I’m curious because I think that tells something.

Also, if you’ve only followed the trial, I want to thank you for your honesty etc. and being brave enough to stand your ground.

I am very curious for extreme honesty in this area. I think we can all learn much from it.

I followed in what I would call hard-core in 2008, then let it go once it was determined that the corpse was Caylee.

Some have followed hard-core from day one until now...

Some have only recently started following, since the trial..serious trial watcher or semi-trial watcher.

I am curious as to where opinions fall according to how one followed/follows this case.

The child HAD to decompose (timer 55), we don’t know what she actually did—it could even be worse than we imagined. Decompose for 55 days—mom or the police could never determine what REALLY happened to Caylee.

Law dictates we can’t judge on imagination, but I truly believe the state provided evidence that left VERY little to the imagination.

The state took me as close to Casey’s warped mind as I care to venture—though they failed to bring in several things I believe would have ‘sealed-the-deal’ for them.

Jesse Grund(sp?) being a BIG one, he hurt but he helped MUCH more than he hurt! That policeman they fired but he AOL IM’d with Casey, called Caylee the “offspring” and nanny “offspringkeeper” or some such.

Casey said she was ready to “gnaw her arm off to get away”. It cetainly showed Casey’s desperation to be free of her child, her home and her LIES about NANNY THEN!!! Even nanny with Jesse...

Also, at this point, I don’t believe Casey cooked up some chloroform. It is to volatile and I just don’t buy it, Casey is a big *ahem* pussy. I do wonder about cleaners in the trunk—what is in Frbreeze?

Decomp—yeah buddy THAT was there!

As an aside—how many lives has Casey ruined, now?!

One last thought— her ears (hahaha)

In the early 9o’s there was some red-headed kid that was 12? 13? and smashed the head of a 4 yr old boy. They made some defense that included his ears, as I recall, in some vague way.

Anyhow, Casey has strange ears, so does Obama for that matter. Casey also has strange hands, all fingers close to equal.

I don’t know, only Pelosi and Casey have ever set me to hating ugly hands..hahahaha

I don’t find it an excuse but do ears and hands tell anything? *sigh* niters all!
I’m thinking stupid tired now! gah!

My experience was during selection the first question was “Are you a college graduate?”. The defense wanted NO educated people on the jury.

At least Casey will be free soon to begin the search for the real killers.
