Casey Anthony TRIAL Thread #4

[ilovepete]

I'm honestly glad the defense won that one.

Slap me down if you must, but I don't blame Cindy. She became a desperate woman during this trial. It's CASEY I want to beat the crap out of. When she heard her mother testifying about the chloroform searches, Casey should have sttod up right in court and said "Mom I can't let you take the blame for me!! Stop speaking right now!!"

Not a slap down, but I do blame her. She swore to tell the truth when trying to find the facts about the murder of her grandchild. She chose to try to protect her killer. I could not have done that

I wouldn't want my child to do something to put her in Casey's shoes. However, if my child did something so heinous there is no way I would impede law enforcement/lawyers/courts. I would tell the truth and hope for the best. I do believe the death penalty is applicable in some cases, so if my child was involved in that heinous of a crime, I would understand and accept whatever fate they were given, no matter how much it hurt me as a mother.... As a mother I have to understand there is a victim and that victim needs justice... in whatever form it comes. I would never lie for my children, they know it, I know it, they had better not do something so heinous that they would need such a thing, they'd have to look elsewhere for someone to lie. And for the record, I do love my children very much

I've been thinking about this a lot. What if were MY daughter? I keep saying I'd lie for her, but after reading your post, something clicked in me.

If my child got to walk free, how could i look them in the face everyday? At first I'd be relieved and hug her and drop to my knees and thank God she didn't get the death penalty, but then I think I'd begin to have very terrible feelings towards her. Over time, I wouldn't be able to look at her, I think, without wanting to beat the **** out of her every single day. What kind of life is that? Maybe it's better to just tell the truth, let the chips fall where they may and then deal with the emotions afterwards in a healthy way with a therapist. At least my life could go on eventually without having my murderer daughter around and having my granddaughter dead by her hands. I think THAT would be more of a living hell than losing my daughter. I don't know.

So true. It's a fine line.

I honestly wouldn't be able to look at myself if I aided my child in such a way...

Did I miss something? How long were they given to check out the records?

 

[reelmom]

Can Casey decide to testify at any time? Could she say she has decided to change her mind and testify? I know it would never happen, but if she wanted to, could she still decide to?

Good question I never thought about that before.
