Casey Anthony NOT GUILTY & Sentencing Thread 6

[SweetJoy]

Making an accident look like a murderdoesn't help? Just the FACT that it wasn't called in ,if it was an accident, and the body was thrown in a swamp isn't enough? Why spend 31 days hiding an accident? Not enough to show it was homicide? What other proof do people need?

Its that little pesky common sense coming through again...

Who knows? Maybe she panicked. Maybe she was concerned with saving her own butt. Maybe the hypothetical accident was all her fault, maybe an overdose of medication so she could go out partying. Point being - the prosecution did not fill in those gaps. They gave their best guess. Like I said before, I think she's responsible for her daughter's death - but in what legal capacity? Her callousness in the days and weeks afterwards are appalling, but that doesn't prove she is a murderer.

I have quite a bit of common sense myself ...

The problem was not the case the state presented. .

I don't know about that. The commentator and lawyers on tv are starting to change their tune. Now they're beginning to say, "well, come to think of it, the prosecution overcharged, didn't have evidence, yada yada".

Wow - I guess I better go and change my major!!.

You'll be in good company apparently...a certain Mr. Mason, Mr. Biaz.....

Do you think retirement makes him look like a sore loser or a weak person who has thrown in the towel?

Not at all. I can't imagine how physically and emotionally draining that job must be. Many prosecutors go into private practice at some point in their career. Financially, it is usually a very good move. Next time you see Jeff Ashton, he'll probably be a defense attorney.

Those crack me up too . Common sense tells me to use the ignore button, but like a train wreck I like to see what else might be said.[/COLOR [/I][/SIZE]

That's why I look at your posts too!

They say whatever they can to keep the public tuned in to their programs. That is why my TV is off.

The commentators need to say whatever makes them look good. They all want to be back for the next trial. They all want to be hired. I find very few of them to be genuine.

Of course they are! What kind of talking heads would they be if they didn't back peddle - lol. Yes - with hindsight being 20/20 - there are things to be changed now.

This. Too many "maybes" that the prosecution used as definites. I wish they had that ONE PIECE of concrete evidence, Caylee's blood on Casey's clothes, DNA, witness, something!! But they didn't have it.

The ignore button is your friend. It makes the Dis a much happier place LOL

Six weeks of trial, hundred witnesses, not one piece of evidence asked for or questions asked, priceless...

She will never have to work, she'll have the books and movie proceeds... As for where she will live in the meantime, I'm sure Baez & Co. will represent her for those interviews/books/proceeds so I'm sure they're okay spending the money setting her up with a place to live.

Priceless is right. Unbelievable.

Maybe Baez can start up another bikini company, starring Casey Anthony. She'd LOVE the attention.

Maybe Casey can go on Survivor. That would be fun.

You and that common sense...geez, joviroxx.

Did we leave the spray in the other thread?

even Jane Velez just said "in confusion there is reasonable doubt". A few hours ago she was crying travesty!

I just LOVE "no offense, but..." comments.

Translated: Hey you stupid idiots that don't know as much as I do.........no offense, of course.

Can people really type that with a straight face?

Not going into criminal law so I guess I'm good there.

Exactly! I am not going to listen to everyone "start" to turn this all around. She did it. Period. No one will get me to change my mind. I cannot listen anymore.

So we let guilty people go? Its not about concrete smoking guns. Its about the preponderance of the evidence, circumstantial and otherwise. Its about looking at everything, using common sense and evaluating.

If we always needed a piece of concrete evidence, most of our criminals would be free. Reasonable doubt is not Possible doubt. This is not a CSI tv vshow

 

[caribear]

Too bad Casey didn't decide to go and party in Aruba after Caylee died.....I think her and Joran Van der Sloot would have made a great hook up.....taken a nice long walk on the beach and justice would have been served.

 

[minkydog]

I'm just sick over this verdict. You will never ever convince me that Casey Anthony didn't kill her baby. Never. She is free to walk the streets just like OJ did. But she'll never be truly free, you know. This case will stalk her for the rest of her life, no matter how many books and movies she makes. Her parents will never have any peace. They will never be able to work again--who would hire them? The three of them will be looking over their shoulders for the rest of their lives. Everyone in America knows who they are, what they look like, where they live. There will be no hiding for the Anthonys and no rest until the draw their last breath.

Who do they think they are offending anyway?
