Was there proof of a crime? No, there was only proof that a death occurred. If you can’t prove a crime occurred then nothing else matters. The prosecutors didn’t have the evidence.

That's it in a nutshell.

All the rest is the impotent howling of a frustrated mob. Frustrated with the government, with inflation, with their job situation, with their destroyed retirement funds, just frustrated... and howling for the blood of not just someone they suspect of wrongdoing, but for those who ruled in the case the only way they could have under the circumstances.

I expect it from the lemmings who get all their news from the tube, but here? in a place for conservative thought? My turn to be shocked.

Of all the places I expected to see Due Process upheld, I admit I am surprised by the vitriol against it.

I think our nation is closer to the edge than at any other time in my life.

Maximum dittos! And I think you are right that Casey Anthony, her Lawyer and now the Jury are serving as punching bags used to vent other general frustrations.
