Casey Anthony NOT GUILTY & Sentencing Thread 6

[bumcat]

I don't think they understood Judge Perry's instructions. How did they not understand that, if they convicted her on murder 1, they didn't have to give her death penalty!?! They could've given her LWOP, 30 years to life ... whatever. Ai yi yi.

ETA: why hasn't anyone asked this juror "Did you realize you didn't have to give her the death penalty even if you decided murder 1?" I hope someone asks a juror this in an interview! Sounds like they didn't understand that point!!!

and if I remember correctly, after Judge Perry read all that he also said there would be a copy in there for them.

I first want to say that I am not a mother yet, because many people who have been quite upset with what I have said about the trial keep saying I am not a mother so I don't get it.

Here is the thing, every single person who is upset about the verdict doesn't get it, because they are allowing their emotions to flow.

The Prosecution could not PROVE that Casey killed her daughter. There was nothing, a tattoo? A few pictures of her out partying ( Do we know exactly when those photos were taken?)

How about the police.....It took them over 6 months to find the remains just a few homes away from the Anthony's?????? If I was on that Jury and this is what I have said from the beginning it all didn't mesh well. There wasn't a motive, no murder weapon either. They don't even know HOW she was killed, so how can you convict without all the facts and evidence.

That is why you MUST by law leave your emotions at the door and look at the facts. That Juror that just spoke said it, they didn't give us enough information.

I also think that everyone is going to be wrong about Casey, she is going to move far away and grieve and be out of the spotlight. She will never be able to have a normal life. I do beleive that Caylee was NOT murdered, I think it was accidental, however, I do also feel that Casey has some mental issues that has to do with her lying and making things up. She may have been competent to stand trial but she DID lie to police.

It's just sad at how many people are now wishing death on this person. There are many Christian people on this board and I am quite shocked to be honest and not just on here. It's actually really sad, that someone would even post it. Because if someone does do this, guess where everyone is going to come looking at WHO it might have been.

Something to think about......

I'm ready to move on, I don't really care anymore. We have alot of other more important things to worry about in this country.

Simply put, you're right. You don't get it.

Yes, some people are emotional, but many of us are upset that it appears jurors were seated who not only failed to follow jury instructions, but would have been unable to undestand them in any case. You can't fix stupid.

And Casey will not grieve one second. Sociopaths do not grieve. They just don't.

Not everyone that believes she is guilty wants her dead.

And it seems at least one juror did reach a verdict based on emotions.

As far as evidence--6 weeks of testimony and all you got was party pics and a tattoo as evidence? There was so much more.


Lastly--the area got flooded. Law enforcement screwed up by not giving Kronk's initial reporting more due diligence. However, the Tropical Storm the following week flooded the area.
This was about a month after Caylee was first reported missing/abducted. Can't look for a body when you are searching for a live kid.

ETA: you are entitled To your opinion. Whether or not one has children is irrelevant. There are people with children who agree with the verdict just as there are those who do not have children who are upset with the verdict.

From Twitter:

OrlandoCoyote The new term: "Pulling a Baez" will officially replace "Throwing someone under a bus". Which has been grossly overused.

If she has a brain in that lying sociopathic head, she won't come anywhere near Texas. I'd be pleased as punch to hand her over to a Mexican drug cartel, but it would never get that far. Heaven knows they love to dissolve bodies in acid, hide them in ceynotes, bury them in the desert, etc. Casey would probably be able to give them a few pointers before they offed her.

Texas is the home of the "he/she needed killing" defense. I'm sure you could get at least one person on a jury here to buy the, "Lord, I don't know what came over me. I saw her and my brain just went into a fog. I don't remember anything after that." Nope, best for her to avoid Texas.

Sounds perfect!!

OMG! Just tuned into Primetime and the very first thing they said was:

The first time they voted TWO jurors voted GUILTY for MURDER ONE!

How in God's name did two people feel she was guilty of murder 1 and in the end they voted NOT GUILTY ON EVERYTHING?????>

Spineless. Completely spineless.

I don't know---but out of the whole trial...the first thing that comes to mind is Jose's opening statement. That should have been grounds for a mistrial.

Seems to me that JB's opening statement set a terrible precedence...the "just throw out completely unsubstantiated accusations that will not be proven, but a bell run can't be unrung, so there ya go" defense.

Jennifer Ford:
"It's someone elses life and if I am wrong and I kill someone, I can't live with that."

Why did she feel she was going to kill Casey? She did not have to vote for the DP. She didn't even have to vote for a charge that would warrant the DP.

Oh, she sounds like a real prize. Is this the nursing student? Yeah, I'd want her responsible for the care of my loved one.

Ugh...WHY didn't I stop reading when I said I would? (Because by the time I hit "submit" you all posted more! *wags finger at you all* ) Good night all!

That assumes they would have gotten off their butts, picked up the copy and actually read it. Waaaaaay too much trouble.

I wonder if now that the trial is over we finally get to see all the evidence that was sealed.

In the FBI interview with GA they showed him some pictures and GA's eyebrows shot almost clear to his hairline and said he had no clue about where those pics had been taken or how it was that she was involved in having those pics taken.

None of those pictures have seen the light of day.

So I'd like to see all the evidence now that it can no longer prejudice the jury.

 

[Samba]

I don't think they understood reasonable doubt, their instructions or options.

I didn't mean to be unkind to the jury but, somehow I get the idea that piblic education is failing us or pesticides are affecting our brains, or something.... When I heard the instructions read I thought "uhoh".

That a jury person is having buyers remorse only makes me more upset. great
Quit my career in Nursing after several decades because increasingly I found myself surrounded by people like Juror #3. It is not my profession as I once knew it. Outta there!!

Now back to my show about modern physics, the nature of consciousness, etc. Fascinating stuff!

 

[Mickeyistheman]

Not everyone that believes she is guilty wants her dead.

There is a thread on Facebook that 1 Million people want her dead. That is quite sad.

And it seems at least one juror did reach a verdict based on emotions.

ETA: you are entitled To your opinion. Whether or not one has children is irrelevant. There are people with children who agree with the verdict just as there are those who do not have children who are upset with the verdict.

But, for many who are upset with the Jurors on this and it makes me quite ill actually. Especially now the names they are being called etc. is terrible.

However, I said this to many of my friends, what if it was your husband or your wife or someone you knew that was on trial. Wouldn't you want them to have a FAIR trail and be innocent until proven guilty?

I understand the emotion, I do, but maybe it was an accident? She panicked? Someone else her father, her boyfriend at the time told her we'll do something else. There is much more to this story than we may ever know.

I'm not sure if you followed this case, because if you did, you would know it was much more than a tattoo and MORE than a few party pictures (which were taken while Caylee was missing, fact).

The area where Caylee was found was under water for about 4 months. It would've been impossible to find her. When Roy Kronk called in August, they were still looking for an alive Caylee.

The motive was Casey wanted a life with out her daughter and she was successful for a month until her mother caught up to her.

Unfortunately, when Caylee was found, she was only a bag of bones with duct tape wrapped across her skull. It would be impossible to find a true cause of death but if you connect the dots, the duct tape speaks volumes.

Casey will never grieve. You do know how she acted during the 31 days she knew her daughter was dead right? I think you'll find that YOU will be wrong about Casey. r

I completely agree with the bolded parts of the above!

Not everyone that believes she is guilty wants her dead.

I completely agree with the bolded above!

I, for one, did not want Casey dead. If I were on that jury and it went with murder 1, I'd fight tooth and nail for LWOP over death penalty.

And, agreed -- there was a lot more evidence than party pics and tattoo.

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

By what happened, you mean continue lying, right?

Yes--I am sure she will write her version Of what her daddy made her do and how he ruined her life. And I hope he sues to her for it...not that Cindy would allow that to happen.

But we will not get the whole truth from her. We will just get her version of events.

I am sure Baez has her makeover at the spa booked for tomorrow afternoon.

Juror #3 felt the evidence was too circumstantial and just couldn't be certain Casey killed Caylee on purpose. She mentioned multiple times that she needed more evidence.

Yet, she was certain that George was involved! How did she make that leap? There wasn't a single stitch of evidence to support that theory yet juror #3 was convinced George was somehow involved. Glad she can sleep at night. I guess there isn't much floating around in her head to keep her up at night.

She probably thought that GA and LA molested Casey as well even though there was no evidence of that, too.

 

[Mickeyistheman]

Okay, I am going to play Devil's Advocate here.... For those that say that the EVIDENCE was there. Tell me what it was then?


Where was the 100% proof A) that it was murder and B) That Casey did it?


Tell me what it was because many people keep saying it was right there, how could they not have convicted here.

Then if everyone else FEELS that she was guilty, what did the Jurors miss.

I am not being funny or sarcastic in any way I am being VERY VERY serious right now.
I would just like an answer.

Same here. Never would have voted for the DP.

And yeah, anyone that thinks the only evidence was party pics and a tattoo must have gotten their trial news from Geraldo.

With Deluxe accomodations also - probably Grand Floridian Club Level ...

Actually, when I heard that ABC paid for her trip to Disney World, I almost choked on my salad (I was eating dinner ) and actually said, "oh well, guess I'm cancelling our upcoming trip to Disney now" ...

Seems to me ABC paid her... why watch these shows paying these jurors?

In fairness, I can see why a trip to Disney would be in order. Did you see where the poor jury had to stay?

http://www.wesh.com/casey-anthony-extended-coverage/28466997/slideshow.html

I can't believe that, we were down there during the trial and for 2 nights at the end of our trip we were going to stay there, instead we chose the Westin down the street, the whole time I was thinking the Rosen Shingle Creek would have been better. It might have been a circus. I do think we would have been more comfortable though, at the time of booking for 2 nights in a row they kept lowing the price to 65.00 per room! I'd already booked the Westin and I'm part of their preferred club so I just kept what I had and got a free upgrade when I arrived

Sorry, but the state of FL reached its maximum on the amount of stupid we allow to live here. On Tuesday, we went over that number by 12 so Casey will have to live elsewhere. Wonder if Guam has any availability?

Please, I think the island of Guam is way too small for ICA, but we do have a heavy military presence there, so maybe Guam would be good afterall....

OMG! Just tuned into Primetime and the very first thing they said was:

The first time they voted TWO jurors voted GUILTY for MURDER ONE!

How in God's name did two people feel she was guilty of murder 1 and in the end they voted NOT GUILTY ON EVERYTHING?????>

And within 4-6 hours they completely changed their minds to innocent on all counts but lying.

And thinks that Casey is an excellent mother.

Yeah - excellent mothers wait 31 days to report their child as "missing".

Babs just asked if a good mother waits 31 days to report their child missing. Baez said "Obviously no but that's not the situation that someone should behave and I made that clear. Now I understand the actions that she took were obviously not things that anyone can condone but this wasn't about a murder case. It never was"

Baez has been drinking the Casey kool-aid for way too long.

Well, he's been such a great father, so he'd know a great mother if he saw one right? Walters is a tool.

Once again......Too stupid to be on a jury. Can't grasp reasonable doubt. Can't see that ANY conviction at all will not automatically warrant an execution. Too dense to understand that the prosecution is under NO obligation to prove a motive, yet they DEMAND one.

I was going to ask if they even read the jury instructions, but that assumes they were literate.

Apparently a lot of people think any doubt means reasonable doubt. To me it means it must be reasonable and logical with the sequence of events that you know and can be proven. There was a lot of proof, why is it nobody seems to know about it? That's right because it wasn't in the opening statement.

Dear Higher Powers That Be ... if I am ever in FL and need to go to the hospital, please don't let Jennifer Ford be the nurse on duty .... Thank you and amen.

The fact that woman is a nurse (I'm assuming) please never let me get sick in that area... she sounds like a real winner.

I was just about to post this same thing. Sounds like she was brining her emotions into the thought process. Dan Abrams thought it was interesting that she thought this as well.
