You're right, the prosecution proved nothing. They had to have an airtight case to get a conviction and they didn't.

I'm not happy about the way this thing went down and was shocked as anyone when I heard the verdict.

I also understand they could of given her 2nd degree murder with the aggravated child abuse and still got the death penalty, but did not choose to go there.

I wonder how much of putting a *woman* to death played into the decision? From what I hear, Floridians don't like that prospect.

huh? Floridians have the castle doctrine.....and they are squeamish about the DP?

I think we are seeing the dumbing down of America....did you read about the jurists? One woman her husband died in jail, another had kids in jail, another was convicted of drug charges.....the problem is more with them than anything the prosecution did or didn't do.

this explains a lot

From the info on these jurors, many have problems in their families with the law already - they should never have been seated
