Congratulations America. Might as well throw out the Jury System with the rest of the Constitution.

When jurors make money writing books and value their decisions on monetary reward, yes it is broken to some degree. People get convicted rightfully so with very little evidence, yet this case had mountains if you in fact followed it. A non-guilty verdict is likely going to be more valuable to the jurors that want to speak out and write books. That is the sad part of this whole affair. Blame the media that rewards bad behavior. The parents apparently have signed a 2 million dollar deal to profit off the death, of which they have profited enormously from already. The perjury on the stand knowing where the profit was is sad.

Right now to forget Casey and the whore Anthony family(?) I’m going to buy a fifth!:-}

I agree the selection of Jurors needs to be reformed.
