Remembering the OJ Simpson trial. He was on trial for the murder of Nicole Brown Simpson. Was he also tried for the murder of Ron, her friend?

There were numbers of people who were 100% certain that he was not guilty. And in fact, a jury of peers returned a verdict of the same.

Does anyone hold the opinion that Casey is fully without any fault whatsoever in the death of Caylee, whether it be accidental or premeditated? Either here or what you've read on another board, a friend, neighbor, co-worker, etc.

I won't criticize anybody for their opinion. Opinions aren't wrong. You can maybe not have all the facts, or see them differently or even a life experience may lead one to feel another way.

I'm really just curious what other people think.

 

[Kurby]

i think the difference with Casey and OJ is that OJ was a celeb.

it's really hard to confict a celeb. look at Lindsay, Paris, Robert Downey Jr. how many chances do they get. how many slaps on teh wrist do they get?

you and I would NEVER get that many chances - and that's with a judge. put a jury in the mix and the odds go down that a conviction will happen.

too many people think - ohhhhh he couldn't do that he doesn't have to - he could have any women he wanted - what does he care about her when he's got another gf and another one and another one.

screw ups on the prosecution side didn't help either. they never EVER should have let him put that glove on - he deserved an oscar for that performance.

Here you are!!! I knew I'd find you somewhere!

I wish I didn't have such a demanding job so I could join you guys.

One thing I wonder about that one of you may know--does anybody know who Caylee's father is? I read that her boyfriend Jesse Gund (or is it Grund?) took a paternity test and it wasn't him. I believe I read somewhere that her father and brother were also ruled out.

I wonder if Casey herself even knows.

My bolding. I'm not sure the jury thought he was not guilty; I think it was more on the lines that they didn't think the prosecutor's proved their case.

That's the tricky part of all of this. Casey's trial is based mostly on circumstantial evidence. The prosecutor's have to convince the jury that Casey is guilty beyond a resonable doubt. That's not easy to do. The defense does not have to prove she's innocent.

It's funny because during his trial I went back and forth thinking guilty/innocent. By the end I was pretty sure guilty BUT there was a small doubt. I do think prosecution blew it. Now of course I think he is 100 % guilty.

He was actually at a Bills game and was going down the stairs that DH and I were going up. He gave us a smile and I just turned my head. My DH who is totally oblivious to anything didn't even look at him so had no idea who I was muttering comments about after he was past us.


With Casey, most that I talk to think she knew exactly where Caylee was and that she was dead from day 1..but they are mixed with whether she killed her or was it an accident.

I wish I didn't have such a demanding job so I could join you guys.

I think they said he was killed in a car accident, but I don't remember hearing a name and how could they prove anything if he is dead. I think she has no clue who the dad really is.

watching Nancy Grace. I see Baez was full of himself today. Taking pictures with young woman? Posing at the cameras going off? Hard to believe that he's involved in a murder case of a 2 year old child. That man irks the hell out of me!

Yes, me too!

If I understood correctly, it was TWO women - one on each arm. I thought the same thing about little Caylee. How sad that he has used her murder to become a celebrity.

 

[JerseyJanice]

I don't buy the defense story about Casey being abused. I think her lawyers came up with this defense from watching the first Menendez brothers murder trial. Maybe they think they can make her look sympathetic enough to create doubt in the minds of the jurors?

 

[Samba]

Okay, what death penalty cases has HoseA tried?

He is taking a beating on the TV shows though he may enjoy some strange celebrity on the street.
