Longshot, but this psycho should have to really get a fair trial. One where the prosecution actually gets to present the whole case.

Maybe Casey can hook up with Joran VanDerSlut when she gets out Sunday.

It’ll NEVER happen. Ridiculous to even talk about it.

On the tube today, I saw some of the volunteers who had searched at length for the “missing” girl, while all of that time Casey knew that Caylee was not missing, but was, in fact, deceased. Would they have a civil case against her?

I did’nt pay attention to this media extravaganza the first time around & I will not watch it this time either. The press will use this tragedy until there is not an ounce of blood left. What a waste of air time.
That being said we pray for the innocent child.

Although she was acquitted in state court, double jeopardy does not attach if she would be accused of depriving her daughter of her civil rights in the federal court system. That's what happened in the Rodney King case. The cops were acquitted of assault and related charges in the California state court (isn't everyone,) but then convicted in the federal courts of depriving King of the civil rights.

That federal charge involved police depriving King of his civil rights as they were acting under color of law--that is in their role as law enforcement. There is no general federal civil rights criminal law applying in the Anthony case permitting a federal prosecution, at least in the absence of some police or other official involvement or some conspiracy (two or more persons acting in concert where the old federal anti-KKK laws can be invoked).

Lynch mob mentality - I am ashamed to be associated with some on this forum.

There is a reason the founding fathers forbid double jeopardy.

I often wondered how anyone could become part of a lynch mob, and I am viewing the process here, on Free Republic, home of conservatives, protectors of our Constitution willing to throw it all over because they disagree with the jury’s verdict.

Shame on all of you that are out for blood. We are still a nation of laws, and sometimes we may not agree with the results but once we go down the path of vengeance we lose the high ground, we become no different then the liberals for whom anything can be justified if we get our way.

I am also amazed on how many can not tell the difference between what was presented in court and what was presented on the TV talk shows. I know you think you know what happened but that is not the same as it really happening.

Spare me the attack on those such as myself who are willing to defend the system, at this point in time, you will be ignored, angry mobs can not be reasoned with, and I am not going to try.

I still prefer to live in a nation where it is a jury that decides my fate rather than an angry lynch mob.

I just want this crap off my TV so they can start talking about real issues instead. This case has no real meaning, other than “another dead cute white girl”

Some questions I want to ask about this trial regards the allegation George Anthony and his son molested Casey. Does anyone know if there was any evidence it actually happened? Did Casey tell her lawyer about it or was it some ploy the defense team came up with to get sympathy for her? If her lawyers made it up, can they be punished for making such an allegation against someone?

Please put me on your ping list. Thanks!

I was wondering if the Feds would charge Casey for making a false claim that her baby was kidnapped, since kidnapping is a Federal crime which brought the FBI into the case.

Also had heard that one juror hired a publicist before the trial began, but do not know if that is true.

My bet is on Roy Kronk’s son. I didn’t get a sense he was telling the truth - or that possibly he had his dates confused. Just something about him didn’t seem right.

River Cruz...not sure what to make of her lies. Was she lying in her original deposition when she said she didn’t have an affair with George, or on the stand when she said she did? She told Tony Pipitone she thought she could tell the story without having to admit she and George had an affair. I never did find out how the police found the “I need you in my life” text on her phone- obviously she must have saved it, so did she volunteer the text to LEO or to Baez first? Lots of questions around her credibility.

Frankly there is/was so much deception in this case on the part of so many involved it’s hard to see how it will ever be clarified, UNLESS the defense theory of George being in on it is true- (which seems unlikely for a number of reasons) and he comes forward and tells all. It would have required him to allow his daughter to sit in jail for three years facing capital murder charges, knowing what really happened and not stopping it. His behavior during the search for Caylee would be inexplicable. At some point while he’s demanding from Casey that she tell them what she knows- Casey would have turned on him and told him to own up to his part...nothing in letters or jailhouse phone calls shows any hint of collusion between them. ALSO- if he played a real part in it I think the defense team would have been investigating it carefully...and there’s no evidence or rumor they did so.

I wonder if anyone on the jury, in hindsight has considered there was no cause of death in the Scott Peterson case either. Barely any clues and a defendant who lied, lied, lied after the fact. Yet he sits on death row in California. He must wish he lived in Florida.

I think that Prosecution (Ashton) in his closing statement made a grievous mistake when he said, looking at the jury, “SOMEBODY killed Caley”.
Prosecution had Casey on trial for the evil deed and let her off the hook (gave the jury doubt) when he indicated “somebody killed her”.
Prosecution should have said “Casey killed her”!!!!

She can’t be tried again for the same crime. She was acquitted by a jury of her peers. She could go on national tv and tell exactly what she did, when and how, where and why, and couldn’t be tried again for those charges.

Anyone who suborned perjury or perjured him/herself would face criminal charges, but not Casey.

I watched the prosecution's so-called press conference after the verdict was announced.

I looked into the eyes of Lawson Lamar, the States Attorney, and the sheriff as they spoke.

They are both political hacks and incompetent boobs. They would both be better off to pretend they never heard the name "Casey Anthony".
