I had the same conclusion. I don’t think murder was proven. I’m not entirely convinced that Casey deliberately killed Caylee. I’m not convinced George wasn’t involved. I’m not convinced Kronk didn’t mess with the remains, including the duct tape.

Involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide were more appropriate.

Also, they had the motive wrong if it was murder. Nobody kills their kid so they can party. George and Cindy always cared for Caylee while Casey partied. Prosecution should have suggested that Casey’s motive was her desire to keep the child from her parents, whom she had recently had disagreements with. Blame the overzealous prosecution for seeking the death penalty, and for trying to introduce shitty forensic evidence.

Law is not supposed to have emotion. It is supposed to be unbiased. The media, with their history of lying, got the public hysterical about this case from day 1, so much so that they couldn’t even find an unbiased jury in Orlando. If you are upset with the shoddy jury, blame the media.

You've got the law wrong. The prosecution does not have to prove motive.

Furthermore, the jury could have opted for felony murder, they did not have to find that Casey deliberately murdered Caylee.

I watched almost all of the trial and find your doubts regarding George and Kronk unreasonable, so I won't bother addressing them.

And as much as you wish it so, the media had nothing to do with this mentally challenged jury.

It's late, so goodnight.

Are you serious? First of all, people have killed children for CRYING TOO MUCH for pete’s sake. Women have murdered their children because they impeded their relationship with the new boyfriend. Nobody kills their child so they can party is, and has been proven, clearly FALSE. As for George and Cindy ALWAYS babysitting while she partied, I have read, and I forget where now, but in more than one place that once Cindy found out casey was lying about working she put a stop to all the babysitting. Her friends also testified that Cindy would call Casey home at 11 or midnight when they were watching Caylee and she wished she could stay the night with them instead. I read a police timeline transcript of cell phone records (texting that her friends had to produce to police detectives as evidence) and you could clearly see that Casey was having trouble getting mom and dad to babysit everytime she wanted them to. Casey would have to turn down offers of outings and vacations with friends. The shitty forensic eveidence might one day be considered standard just like DNA is now....and as for the law not having emotion. We are not robots and you have to have some kind of emotion in most everything you do, whehter it’s subconscious or not. I agree about them overreaching with the death penalty option. But it’s not really the point. They had the option to set that aside no?
