Years ago, within the first year or so of being a freeper (class of 2001), there was a child abduction, rape and murder in Arizona, IIRC. An older gentleman accused of the rape and murder, also IIRC.

One of the TV watchers, in response to those who clamored that he was guilty as sin (and he was so found), suggested that he was innocent because she had looked into his eyes (on tv).

I don’t know how or why some become so invested in cases they have no actual connection to, but watch on TV and assume that they are as well informed as anyone actually involved in the case.

For the record, I sure thought Casey was guilty, and would not have been surprised by a guilty verdict, but also was not surprised by the not guilty verdict.

Well stated, I too thought she was guilty but she walks free. In this case a little girl died and the possible murderer is walking free.

Revamp the jury system or force defendants to prove their innocence as has been proposed on this thread and many more cases of injustice will occur.

One of the ignorant Hags on HLN actually claimed Caysey Hypnotized the Jury because she was sitting across from them. I kid you not.
