Does this really need it’s own thread?
FLA, Orlando... sometimes res ipsa loquater...
Actually the moral to this story is if you get a jury summons GO TO JURY DUTY!! Why, because they interviewed a woman outside the courthouse who got a jury summons to most likely appear for this jury but did not go..she wiggled her way out of it..she said she would have convicted Casey had she been on that jury..so bottom line is, if people want to see justice served, don’t rely on idiots who end up on juries, go on the jury yourself and make a difference
I really don’t think anyone’s blaming entire cities or states for this.
Have Orlando pick a jury for this one...

Do you want Orlando held culpable for what would have been a BAD verdict otherwise? The actual Jury did a great job. They ignored the MOB.
I am sick of mobs and mob-frenzy “justice”!
Your DAs suck. Thy are just too use to kangaroo court action where no one messes with them...They were forced to work on this one..and got their butts waxed...
Florida the state that gave us Janet Reno, a DA dictator...
If what you say is true, then we need to credit the wise people of Pinellas County who are obviously much better citizens than the people of Orlando.
I don’t have a dog in this race, but from the comments I’ve read here, it’s the prosecutors who failed (just like in the O.J. case), otherwise, we have the best judicial system on the planet.
I’ve been on two juries this year, and I’m pretty certain it’s the jurors, and the effed up judicial system, and with the like of Nifong, Spitzer, and Cyrus Vance, Jr, in it, whadya expect?!
Strictly speaking, it was probably the correct verdict.
Casey Anthony was a party-girl, who hated the responsibility of motherhood. When she went out to party, she’d knock the kid out. She probably thought it was the perfect compromise, and cheap because she wouldn’t even have to pay for a babysitter.
If the prosecution had charged her with something that she’d serve 20 years, Casey probably would have been convicted.
Orlandos prosecutors, law enforcement etc who compiled an prepared an presented the case.....are at fault.
No places or communities fault. Comedy of errors where a small child an the taxpayers paid the price.
But you CAN blame the Orange County Sheriffs Department for not following up on early leads on the location of the child's body. Had they done so, there might have been more forensic evidence available. But they didn't and the body lay in a swamp for many months longer and decomposed further.
Heavens, and here I had planned to devote my life in attacking Orlando.
I wondered about that when the one juror spoke up today and said Casey was basically a good mother. I thought I was going to throw up.
As a white male living in California I am have been blamed by the right and the left for every problem in the world. The right, (FR especially ) lumps me in with every freak in San Francisco and every stupid thing they do. I have learned to deal with this stupidity. Blame is rarely built on fact any attempt to use facts will just feed the flames of stupidity. A radio guy out here said that the only solace he could find in the verdict that California wasn’t alone in having stupid juries. I still haven’t decided if I will choose to blame you, but I am willing to take bribes.
It is amazing how many FReepers resemble emotional head-exploding liberals today.
Emotional FReepers and the MSM agree today. Sad.
Perhaps we should just eliminate jury trials in the U.S. and go straight to the gallows.
Which is exactly why the jury was picked from someplace else, so there was no Nancy disGrace lynch-mob.
