>>Justice was not served in this case - Casey got off on slimy, unethical legal tactics.<<

And the irony is, there are those who say they think Casey was guilty (as I do), yet the fact that she got off is proof that “the system worked.”

HUH?????

Good point.

To me, inane statements like that are indicators that 40 years of brainwashing people to be "nonjudgmental" has taken hold, much to the detriment of us all. Being "nonjudgmental" has become a crutch and a way to avoid responsibility for making tough decisions.

We see the results in jury trials like this and in the thoughtless "zero-tolerance" policies in schools. Too many people no longer have the ability to discriminate between good and bad, truth and lies, harmless and harmful.

One of the jurors even said she didn't like judging others and did not want to serve on the jury. But the judge would not allow her to be discharged. How can a person like that be trusted to make a fair and responsible evaluation of guilt or innocence?
