HOWEVER, if she killed the kid, there's only one factor ~ she killed the kid.
We don't have degrees of Live kid, part live kid, part dead kid, dead kid. The child is dead or alive, and it's pretty obvious she didn't do it to herself. BTW, that's "circumstantial evidence" ~ the fact that Kaylee didn't commit suicide! Even the most hardcore "I's gots' ta' sees it mysef" type might well be moved to agree on that.
Any link, however minor in significance, that tells us that Casey killed Kaylee is sufficient!
“I’s gots’ ta’ sees it mysef” type”
Is that some kind of racial slur?

Unless the Prosecution presents enough evidence to prove the accused commited the crime, they are Not Guilty” under our system - not “Innocent” but “Not Guilty”.
The Prosecution had a poor case and they lost. My guess is they were hoping to scare her into a plea bargain, gambled everything, cost the taxpayers a mint and lost the case.
The Prosecutor should be fired. He’s an incompetent.
