Reaction to Casey Anthony being found not guilty on murder of her child

[Scholar]

She clearly killed her damn baby! WTF kind of bullshit is this?
Anybody saw the verdict live?

She was found not guilty of aggravated child abuse as well. The damn jurors must have been smoking crack. It took them 10 hours to make the verdict, but I was expecting her to get the death sentence. This is more bullshit than OJ's murder trial.

[Styles p]

good thing i don't care. :rockon:

[RoTM]

They really didn't have a case from what I could tell.

[Abd El-Krim]

I didn't really follow the case, but I think the prosecution probably lost it around the time when they presented as evidence a can which allegedly contained the 'smell of death' inside of it.

[sunsfan1357]

II watched the verdict live just now, I honestly forgot all about this case until I kept hearing my friends talk about the verdict coming up. Just browsed the wiki about the case but I can't really give an informed opinion except for it always being real shady when someone claiming to be innocent lies to the cops so often and having forensic traces of a dead body in the trunk of the car is shady as well.

[rufuspaul]

And here I thought it was only California where you pretty much have to kill the victim in front of the jury in order to get convicted.

Sad part is she can now profit off of this.

[DeuceWallaces]

Unbelievable. So full of lies and deceit, but prosecutors couldn't seal the deal. Where's Jack McCoy when you need him?

[kaiiu]

f*ck her and that case.

Free my ni99a Anthony Sowell

[iamgine]

Prosecution didn't have enough concrete evidence.

[Styles p]

free mumia abu-jamal. :bowdown:

[pete's montreux]

Prosecution didn't even know the cause of death.

[Abd El-Krim]

Sweet, a juror's new conference. You only get those a couple times per decade.

Is anyone in America not an attention whore?

[Scholar]

Man, for those saying there isn't any frikkin' evidence, what about the chloroform search on her computer, the duct tape, heart stickers, etc.?

[rufuspaul]

Man, for those saying there isn't any frikkin' evidence, what about the chloroform search on her computer, the duct tape, heart stickers, etc.?

The kid obviously did it all to herself. What an attention whore.

[bballer]

ladies and gentelmen of the jurry.

her trunk smells bad.

we reccoment the death penalty.


i rest my case.

[DeuceWallaces]

Yeah, I regularly do google searches for "neck break" "chloroform" and "death" then lie everyone at every step of the way.

[Meticode]

Well parents, apparently if you don't report your daughter missing for a month and she's found dead and during around that same time beforehand you do searches on Google for "How to make chloroform? you're innocent. Wow.

[iamgine]

Man, for those saying there isn't any frikkin' evidence, what about the chloroform search on her computer, the duct tape, heart stickers, etc.?
No one's saying that.

[Meticode]

No one's saying that.
Not here, but there's plenty of people on Facebook saying that. Someone here said they don't have concrete evidence. While they don't have a smoke and gun, they have multiple things that a normal mother just wouldn't do if you're daughter went missing. I think it amounts up to solid evidence. Not reporting for 30 days, lyng to the police for no reason? searching weird terms on Google around the time of your daughter's death.

[StateProperty]

Man, for those saying there isn't any frikkin' evidence, what about the chloroform search on her computer, the duct tape, heart stickers, etc.?
It's not nearly enough though. I'm 99% sure she did it and the jury probably is too but too bad there's that 1% of chance she didn't. There isn't enough evidence pointing directly to her. It could have been a friend of hers or somebody she knows...and she's just covering up for them for whatever reason. I don't believe that but I'm just throwing it out there.

Like pete said, they couldn't even get the cause of death. Recreating the scene is huge in a murder trial.

beyond a reasonable doubt is a high standard. I don't think they met the standard BUT I would have convicted her anyway as a juror based on my feeling of whether she did it or not.

they picked a bad jury imo.

if you wanna blame anyone, blame the prosecution.

[rufuspaul]

She should probably form a support club with Jonbenet Ramsey's parents.

Also not true. What's said was there's not enough concrete evidence.

[rufuspaul]

I think the juries in a lot of these cases can't think analytically. "Reasonable" is the important word in regards to reasonable doubt.

She was too pretty and white to get convicted. :cheers:

if it was clear, she would have been convicted.

the prosecution did not have a lock down case.

[PleezeBelieve]

She can now do porn. It would be a damn waste for all that ass and tits to go to jail for life.

[Scholar]

Here's what I think happened with the jurors:

If found guilty for murder 1, Casey would've been given the death sentence. I think in their minds, the jurors didn't want to convict her and cause her to die. I definitely would've done it, but these jurors must've been weak minded.
They sat exactly across from Casey the whole time, so there's the possibility that some of them actually developed some sort of relationship with her in their own minds, even though none of them spoke to her whatsoever.
You all know how the human mind works. People can create shit out of nothing in their heads.
I'm not saying that what I believe happened with the jurors is 100% true, but it sure as hell makes sense.
There were people rejoicing over her being found innocent; I bet that idiot who flipped off the prosecutors early last week is probably going to be sitting in his jail cell for contempt of court, smiling because he believes in his mind that he might've saved Casey.

[PleezeBelieve]

Jurors ain't talking. Media pissed. :oldlol:

regardless she will never be able to get a husband unless the guy is a complete idiot and lived under a rock. but if that's not what she wanted anyways then i dont know what she's gonna do in her life, just porn i guess. but when you reach 40-45, what then?

[bdreason]

Let's not argue about what happened. She obviously killed her kid and dumped the body because she couldn't handle the responsibility.



As for the case, well, I kind of saw this coming. The entire case was built on circumstantial evidence, and the defense really threw a wrench in the prosecutors case when they started creating their own hypothetical scenarios. I was actually surprised the judge let the defense create alternative scenarios with absolutely no proof. Many judges wouldn't allow that type of posturing.

girl on fb


soo the 800pages of web history they printed off her computer about neck breaking and household weapons...the shovel she borrowed from her neighbor..her partying while shes missing, her making up that story about the nanny kidnapping her...her turning the blame on her dad when she was cornered saying he ducted taped her mouth and dumped her...then she tried to have a pity party by saying she was molested by her dad...really? the woman killed her daughter because ONE juror said not guilty. not because there was no case against her. read up on your info bud.

I lol'd.

[Skywalker]

how can this happen smh

[Godzuki]

this is some of the most ridiculous shit i've ever seen. worse than OJ. i've never seen so many lies told from someone getting accused, EVER. i've never seen a bigger liar so exposed. and yet she never had to testify or answer to those lies.

Even the Defense tried to say Caylee drowned in the pool and it was covered up but everyone they called denied that. they tried to make Casey's dad and bro out to be molesters which they also denied. I mean everything the Defense brought up was never proven and denied, and yet they won. seriously WTF? :facepalm

there is just soooooooOOOOOOOO much incriminating evidence here it makes OJ's case look like peanuts.

Someone may just beat her ass for no good reason though(she wanted to party but if I club owner she would be blacklisted). Sad part is that I think she may actually PROFIT though, she can sell her story and have made for TV movies and stuff.

That guy straight up murdered two people, blood everywhere. Then he ran from the cops on live TV with a hostage, and dumped a bunch of bloody clothes in an airport trash. He even had a black lawyer...

actually murder convictions and death penalty convictions have a lot to do with race. In the jury system a white life is worth more than a black life. If you think race has nothing to do with application of justice in the jury system then you are ignorant. whether or not it is an intervening or substanial factor is one thing, but it has been proven to be a factor in death penalty and 1st degree murder cases.

Girl kills her daughter and dumps her in some park. Goes out partying for a month in public without reporting the child missing, and then when asked about what happened, claims some imaginary babysitter kidnapped the kid. Cops find the kid's body, and charge her with murder. Despite a crapload of circumstantial evidence and a laundry list of lies and cover-ups, she is found not guilty.

you'd have to be a robot or retard to think she didn't do it if you followed the case.

-she abandons her car at a tow lot, they notify her parents their car was abandoned, her dad shows up where he and the tow driver smell a human decomposition smell in the trunk. they do analysis and find overwhelming evidence of chloroform in the trunk.

-she reports Caylee kidnapped/missing, she takes a trip somewhere i can't remember staying with friends, telling her parents and everyone else she was looking for Caylee. Throughout that whole week she spent with multiples of people she never mentioned searching for Caylee, and this is where that infamous hot body contest she won happened. None of her friends were aware she was supposed to be looking for Caylee or anything along those lines.

-she lied about everything. from her previous employment, people she supposedly knew from previous employment, and she kept saying a nanny kidnapped her, and when they found the nanny she named, the nanny didnt even know who she was, and threatened to sue. I've never seen someone lie that much and get blown like that in court, and yet she never once had to own up to them since she pleaded the 5th :rolleyes:

-she also kept saying Caylee drowned in her parents pool. or that might've been the defense argument for a while which both her parents denied.


theres a lot more to this but i'm not thinking straight and typing fast right now, i'll get back to this later, but i've never seen a more guilty person. Its worse tho that she never had to testify(with so many questions crucial to the case she should've HAD to answer) and got off :wtf:

[boozehound]

Then why is he in prison now?
for something with very concrete evidence. WTF does OJ being in jail now have to do with his murder verdict or this?

So OJ got away with murder because he was popluar? Then got busted for armed robbery because he's black? I love the race card, it's so convenient because you can pull it whenever you want, with out any actually facts.

Actually she is not. She already served more than 3 years in prison and there are four counts of lying (each with a one year sentence). So she either serves a month or more or she gets let go on thursday.

[IGOTGAME]

OJ was a "somebody" (athlete/movies/etc) therefore reaching "white" level.

there is no reason to explain OJ. This sufficient evidence that shows the difference in treatment on large samples of blacks vs. large samples of whites for the same or similar crimes that result in death or 1st degree murder.

I feel the same way.

Sample Size = 1
OJ=rich athlete
Defense team = $$$$$$

You're entirely wrong.

He was acquitted because he's a famous athlete and movie star that white people loved in conjunction with a total lack of DNA understanding in 1994 and a dried up glove that didn't fit.

He's in jail now because the latter trial was not turned into a media circus with larger than life personalities and evidence that could easily be misconstrued.

[boozehound]

I was responding the the posters who think Casey Anthony was found innocent because she's white.
her personage certainly played a role, it always does. It definitely colours how each juror views you, especially during the course of a long trial. I do agree with others that most black women probably would've been convicted with the same evidence. I also agree that the judge let the defense create some serious doubt through extended hypothetical scenarios that seemed somewhat over and above.

Yeah so crazy they could go on and on about uncorroborated cover ups and childhood molestations.

that's all there is on my newsfeed. i posted a status pretty much saying "why do we care about the casey anthony trial? it doesn't affect your life" i was getting at the media blowing it out of proportion-i got 22 comments on it thus far, posted an hour ago.

[TylerOO]

Not so much sticking up for her as I'm questioning how one can reach based on the case being pretty much entirely circumstantial a definite conclusion of guilt.

Well you sound pretty ridiculous. "Maybe she was getting into the air conditioning business". You realize how fcuking stupid you sound? GTFO

And one last thing, for those claiming race was a big factor. Isn't the biggest argument for race the way that the media portrays the case to the public? For example, if it were a black women, her character would be victimized in the media, and people would write her off as guilty from the beginning.

The problem with that argument, in this case, is that's exactly what happened to (white) Casey Anthony. All the coverage I saw for the past few years was negative, and everyone I know thought she was guilty from the start. There weren't major media outlets making Casey look like an innocent, confused white girl. She was painted as a twisted murderer from day one... because that's what she is, black or white.



In general, I have no doubt that skin color can effect a verdict. I just don't see it in this case, and the claim that she would have been convicted if she were black is just playing the race card for no reason.

when was the last trial you saw get covered where they didn't assume the defendant was guilty? that's how it is now-guilty until proven innocent not innocent until proven guilty. and even when proven innocent, often still seen as guilty.

Why is "beyond a reasonable doubt" such a tough term to understand, especially when the prosecution admits they don't know the cause of death?

[tpols]

A lot of this can be explained away.
Not the first person to abandon their car.
They're forensic experts now? How did they know it wasn't an animal unless they've been around the decomposing flesh of humans.
Could've been getting into the air conditioning business or a frame job.

She's a bad mother..

Seriously bro.. what the fuvck are you talking about? Could have been a dead animal? Who the hell has dead animals in their car? She could have been going into the air conditioning business? This one is really mind boggling because it simply makes zero sense.:oldlol: Are you fvcking kidding me with this nonsense?

You're trying to sound smart by dissecting the post line by line and coming up with bs hypotheticals but the truth is you can make an excuse for ANYTHING. They could find my blood on someone who was killed and find the knife in my car, and you would say that it could have been planted there and someone might have scraped my arm earlier in the day, got some of my blood on them, and brushed up against the victim while stabbing them leaving me looking like the killer. Shit is just lame and naive..

[Bladers]

And if she really WAS what happens then... Just because something sounds ridiculous doesn't mean it isn't possible.


There's no proof or evidence that she was.

It sounds like you have an emotional attachment to this girl.

sorry the likelihood of every excuse you made being remotely a 'what if it were true?' is 0. its why she didn't testify to incriminate herself. she had no way to even explain half her lies since she was just flat out caught, but thats also why everyone wanted to see her on the stand to try and explain where half her lies came from, and why she was lying about anything and everything.

your excuses of air conditioning business for heavy traces of chloroform in her trunk is how realistic? coupled with decomposed remains of something, that her father who was a ex cop supposedly knew the smell, as well as the tow driver who said he had smelled human decomposition before. and you're pretending the tow truck driver and the father didn't know what the smell was, and how Casey was starting a air conditioned business to explain that? To even explain how she went away to stay at her friends house under the impression she was looking for Casey, but she partied all week with no mention about Casey that whole time, as just being a bad parent? sorry thats WAY worse than just being a bad parent, thats very incriminating.

I didn't even talk about the duct tape with a smiley sticker or something coming from her house roll, and her borrowing some large cans from her father that had some relevance i can't remember right now. i mean theres a lot more than i stated...

this circumstancial evidence is a bunch of lawyer crap to get her off....realistically speaking there is no way she's not guilty.

Do you really have that little understanding of the topic?

The defense doesn't have to prove how a smell got there. They don't have to prove anything.

The burden of proof rests solely on the prosecution. In this case, a prosecution that not only couldn't prove when or where the girl died. They didn't even know how she died.

The defense has to create reasonable doubt...to the extent that there could be no "reasonable doubt" in the mind of a "reasonable person" that the defendant is guilty.

I'm shocked that so many people seem surprised by this verdict. It's not racism or the legal system. It's a prosecutor that did a really lousy job.

[nightprowler10]

I realize that most of the evidence was purely circumstancial, but still....wow.

i think most people thought it was a given she was guilty, at least a vast majority that followed the case. it was all the lawyer talk BS that dragged the case that apparently must'v'e convinced some dumbass jury members she wasn't guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. i've never seen a bigger liar, and its just unbelievable how she never had to own up to any of it, never had to testify, and gets off. what a joke :facepalm

yeah sure, people, i'm sorry females that have no skills start air conditioning businesses out of the blue, right? they all have decomposed stench coming from the trunk of their car they abandoned when they decide to start that A/C business, right? loving parents report their child missing while everyone is out looking for them, but go on vacation party'ing with friends the day after, right? This shit does not happen period. Maybe one of those once in a blue moon, but all of that? which isn't even nearly everything that is incriminating, because her lies about her jobs, friends, pretty much everything just puts this case over the top.

the sad thing is she murdered her kid in such a sloppy, horrible cover up way, didn't even testify, and still got away with it. almost like some teenage girl wrapped up in her friends thinking its no big deal and out of sight out of mind mentality, with tons of evidence there, and she gets away with it. just sad.

5th ammendment rights are pretty far reaching. You can't suspend them in isolated cases because it looks like the accused is guilty.

Her testimony wouldn't have made a bit of difference for the prosecution. It's not like the movies. They can't scream "You killed her, didn't you???" until she breaks down in tears and cries "YES! YES! I DID IT!!!".

They didn't know how the baby died, how she got where she was found, etc. They had no substantive questions to ask, and she would have continued to say she knew nothing about it.

[B]

The case never should have gone to trial. The prosecution never had a way to connect the dots. Chloroform in the trunk none on the body, duct tape with no DNA on it. Only a single hair in the trunk of the car no other DNA or fiber samples to say a body was decomposing in it. Not one witness who saw the mother ever mistreat the child. There was not one shred of evidence that allowed the jury to make that jump from the mom is a lying slut to a murderer

i can't agree with that considering its the jury making the decisions. she can easily say the wrong things, that would sway jury opinions, and she had a LOT to answer for.

its impossible to answer soem of the questions you all expect MUST be answered. imo there is more than enough evidence at the very least to incriminate her. i think if they didn't seek the death penalty they could've gotten a guilty verdict. but the ramifications for a jury to make a decision 'beyond a reasonable doubt' for the death penalty is a huge burden.

The higher level the crime the burden of proof raises tenfold when you want to send somebody to the electric chair and take their life you better have a case that proves that person took somebody elses. Jury got squimish wasn't about to have a death penalty conviction hanging over their head for the rest of their lives because the Cops found a single hair in the trunk of moms car

wtf do you mean what questions? like the billions of lies she told throwing off investigators, changing stories from a nanny kidnapping her to her drowning in her parents pool, questions about her behavior matching that of a parent who just got their kid kidnapped, etc. there are TONS of questions the prosecution culd have asked taht would have made her look EXTREMELY guilty.

but she pleaded the 5th.

don't give me that fishing expedition BS. you all are retarded if you think this is some case with no evidence :facepalm too bad you're only willing to accept physical evidence and not common sense reality. from the way some of you talk i'd even have my doubts if they had her on video camera with the whole act and somehow you all saying theres no physical evidence still :facepalm

The way this whole case was carried out on television and the news was disgusting. There's a thousand murder trials going on, but for her, America tuned in like it was an episode of Law and Order.

If she was convicted, it would've seemed like a group-punishment. Everyone in the country waving their fists, sending this woman to jail without hard-evidence.

Prosecution didn't have enough concrete evidence.


Not reading all these responses, but this is basically what it boils down to. In all odds, Casey had something to do with her daughter dying whether it be by accident, or murder. However, the prosecution has to prove that she killed her, to which there is no evidence. The jury's decision is solely based on the evidence and not anything else as it rightfully should be. You may think she's a horrible person, but at the end of the day we cannot convict if we do not know the truth.

That pretty much describes me in regards to this case. I remember one morning I didn't have anywhere to be, turned on the TV and saw they were having coverage of some trial for this chick I thought was sort of ok looking. I watched it for 10 minutes and just tuned out and went back to sleep. I Googled the case one day, too, and could only read on it for 10 minutes before I got bored.

I still really never knew much about the case and evidence against her, but I still just always felt she was going to be found guilty.

[lpublic_enemyl]

imo she did it, but that does not matter, the burden of proof is on the state beyond a reasonable doubt and clearly they did not do that.

[DeronMillsap]

Yeah, all young trashy single mothers now can kill your babies and avoid reporting to authorities, party up, lie and get away with murder. :applause:

[SCY]

Your link doesn't work (at least for me) so that might be why people ignored it. Either way, the prosecution made it no secret that they were seeking the death penalty with a guilty verdict.

Yeah, the link broke for some reason. It's the first thing that comes up when you Google "Florida Death Penalty". Anyway, of course they were pushing for the death penalty as it's their job to get the highest possible sentence. Doesn't change the fact that the jury can convict without imposing the death sentence.


Florida is one of the few states that allow juries to issue death penalty recommendations that are not unanimous. Here, 12-person juries recommend by majority vote whether someone convicted of first-degree murder should be executed.

[rufuspaul]

The lesson learned here is if you want to kill your child be sure to lie to the authorities again and again, even fabricating imaginary people, so that the body rots beyond the point where a cause of death can be determined.

[JMT]

wtf do you mean what questions? like the billions of lies she told throwing off investigators, changing stories from a nanny kidnapping her to her drowning in her parents pool, questions about her behavior matching that of a parent who just got their kid kidnapped, etc. there are TONS of questions the prosecution culd have asked taht would have made her look EXTREMELY guilty.

but she pleaded the 5th.

don't give me that fishing expedition BS. you all are retarded if you think this is some case with no evidence :facepalm too bad you're only willing to accept physical evidence and not common sense reality. from the way some of you talk i'd even have my doubts if they had her on video camera with the whole act and somehow you all saying theres no physical evidence still :facepalm

You're reacting to all the tv news headline crap that's inadmissable in a trial. Like many people who watched the summary of the trial, you've seen and heard stuff the jury never has presented to them. Not because she didn't testify; because it's stuff they couldn't ask her about.

In my case, you're mistaking defending the process with defending her. I believe she probably did it. Again, I've seen hours of stuff that the jurors never did. That's the prosecutions fault for trying to (1) hang her with the death penalty and (2) build a case basically on the fact that she'
s really unlikable.

[JMT]

Well I'd totally bang her, but she looked pretty hagard in the trial footage I saw. I googled her that night and saw most of the party pics, she is attractive but I wouldn't put her in the upper eschelon of women. She seems trashy as hell, a little crazy, and kind of busted.

Youll be able to see her all made up and airbrushed in Playboy soon.

[Scholar]

Either the prosecution didn't do a great job or the jurors are a bunch of ****ing morons.

If you seriously believe she didn't kill her baby, you're on crack.

What person searches for "how to make chloroform," "asphyxiation" and all that shit if they don't have a plan to do something horrendous?
What kind of mom goes 31 days without informing the police that her child went missing?
Who the hell tells police that he/she works at Universal Studios (or whatever the hell it was she said she works at) as though the police wouldn't follow-up and check there?
Why would a kidnapper put heart stickers on duct tape over a baby's mouth unless there was a strong bond between him/her and the baby?
Why would a person claim his/her baby got kidnapped and then change the story to "she drowned in the swimming pool?"
Why lie in the first place if she didn't do anything to her child?
Why did Casey get a tattoo that read "Beautiful Life" during the 31 days that her daughter went missing?
Why did her trunk smell like a "dead body" had been in there?

I honestly hope this terrible mom gets shot to death or made to suffer somehow, and the person who does it gets away with it because the prosecutors don't have sufficient evidence to put him/her away.

[InfiniteBaskets]

I always figured the vast majority of viewers knew Casey Anthony was guilty from the start. That we were all just watching for court precedence. Whether the court would make a ruling based on common sense/logic over the precendence of providing a sound recreation of the murder. After seeing the verdict, it's apparant the courts are still following historical trend.

historical trend? since when did the reasonable doubt standard get reduced to a "historical trend."

This is the justice system. The one that would rather let a guilty person free than lock up an innocent person. That is the value judgment that this country has made. I for one don't have an issue with this ruling. I think she did it but it couldnt be proven beyond a reasonable doubt to those 12 jurors. I still would rather let her go then to put innocent people behind jail which would happen more often with a burden of persuasion.

If you wanna be mad at someone be mad at the Da's office for going Murder 1 instead of negligent homicide. Who bases their whole case in chief on proving Murder 1 when there is no cause of death or time of death and the only thing linking her to the death is a susposed "smell", disputed google searches for chloroform that, and the 1 hair in a trunk. Come on, you can't convict someone of murder 1 on those facts.

Can you really say she killed that baby without a reasonable doubt if you have no idea how or when then baby died. And the type of evidence is what she did afterwards. She prob had something to do with it but you don't know she killed the baby, it could have just as well been a accident or someone else could have did it and it could have been a coverup. All these things are just as "reasonable" as the Prosecution's theory that she just wanted to party more.

[rufuspaul]

If you wanna be mad at someone be mad at the Da's office for going Murder 1 instead of negligent homicide.

This. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that lawyers that work for the DA in most states don't get paid shit. They might have looked at a Murder 1 conviction as a stepping stone to fame and wealth.

[Godzuki]

i thought the analysis by some experts like Marcia Clark and some others were interesting in how they got into how 'beyond a reasonable doubt' is interpreted. she said something like the jury members were probably misdirected/misconstrued judge instructions into it being 'beyond a shadow of a doubt' which is impossible to prove, and how 'beyond a reasonable doubt' in their minds was proved. basically its very subjective how that guideline for jury verdicts is taken and then twisted by the courtroom arguments or the judges instructions.

a few experts gave this take, but i thought Marcia Clark explained it best, altho i'm not using the same terms she used, more a mix of all of them. i wish i could quote what she said verbatim.

[HylianNightmare]

i'd hit it

[Nanners]

If she did kill the kid, I think her dad was involved in some way or another. Wasnt the guy a homicide detective for a few decades? I dont believe for a second that Casey is smart/capable enough to pull off this crime without leaving behind any hard physical evidence.

What kind of mom goes 31 days without informing the police that her child went missing? A bad mother


Who the hell tells police that he/she works at Universal Studios (or whatever the hell it was she said she works at) as though the police wouldn't follow-up and check there??A pathological liar.


Why would a kidnapper put heart stickers on duct tape?
over a baby's mouth unless there was a strong bond between him/her and the baby?? You do realize no DNA was even found on the duct tape...


Why would a person claim his/her baby got kidnapped and then change the story to "she drowned in the swimming pool?" A person trying to find someone to blame..



Why lie in the first place if she didn't do anything to her child? Same reason so many others lie who aren't guilty but when faced with the prospect of jail time, in an attempt to 'alleviate' the so called evidence against them they concoct stories.


Why did Casey get a tattoo that read "Beautiful Life" during the 31 days that her daughter went missing?A bad, carefree mother..


Why did her trunk smell like a "dead body" had been in there??
She keeps it in terrible condition...


I honestly hope this terrible mom gets shot to death or made to suffer somehow, Why don't you do it because it seems you're just angling to be in that position..


and the person who does it gets away with it because the prosecutors don't have sufficient evidence to put him/her away.

Ummm she was as much a retard as someone can be which is why its amazing how she got off. a huge reason for that tho is the time it took to find Caylee's body which she didn't report until a month later and they didn't find the body until like a year?, and the other stuff that happened like cleaning the car before forensics could do their thing.

she just abandoned her car with the body odor in it. like she was thinking if she left it at a tow lot nobody would never find it? :wtf:

and she just left Caylee's body in the middle of the woods with her bag of stuff next to it, and her duck taped. didn't bury or even try to burn the body.

she did everything you could possibly do like a idiot. thing is she didn't report it until 30 days after it happened, and then it took them a while to find the body, where they say animals messed with it too.

i mean this is the same girl that told everyone around where she lived including media/family that she was searching for Caylee, then takes a trip to her friends and partying all week like nobody was ever going to know.

it seriously killed me inside watching this case and all of the lies she never had to answer for. like i said earlier this case was unique in the ridiculous factor, and all the people pretending like this is like every other case are idiots.

you'd think someone accused of a crime would have to explain themselves, answer SOME questions, say SOMETHING but they don't. then you'd think if they pleaded the 5th it would be held against them in SOME way but nope :facepalm

Does she seem like someone who needs to know the "technical aspects" of anything?Except to commit murder mind you...


She's a dumb party girl. So I'm guessing in your mind it is above a dumb party girls purview to show an interest in anything of a technical nature unless they plan to commit murder.. Oh I see.



She doesn't know shit and doesn't want to learn shit.Except when she wants to kill someone, then she hits the books..

It's called Circumstantial evidence, and it's more reliable than Eyewitness testimony (the human memory sucks). And circumstantial evidence can make anyone innocent look guilty, given the right circumstances (Case in point the number of innocent people on death row who have been cleared by dna..) which is why you usually need MORE than that.. maybe a little hard concrete evidence to remove reasonable doubt.

[KOLBCTEW]

...So do you think she killed her child or not?Based on the evidence or lack thereof I can't make a definitive conclusion on whether she's guilty or not. There's nothing that really confirms guilt yet given her dubious actions surrounding the disappearance there's nothing that completely rules her out as a suspect.

It just doesn't make sense that other people can be suppoena'd to testify and face jail time if they don't but she can just claim the 5th and get away with murder. Couldn't the prosecution claim that she was a material witness?

[IcanzIIravor]

Based on the evidence or lack thereof I can't make a definitive conclusion on whether she's guilty or not.

I agree with this. The whole family was odd, so you can't say for sure she killed the kid. Her behavior while odd, probably would have been the same if her dad, mom or brother had done the deed too.

I felt for some time the Prosecution made the mistake of riding the wave of public sentiment stoked by Nancy Grace and others. With little evidence they should not have even entertained making it a death penalty case, but riding the way they got arrogant and figured it would be a slam dunk cinch case.

Another issue is too many people think the real world investigations go like they do on CSI, NCIS and others and thus they are outraged when David Caruso doesn't whip off the shades and provide the missing link.

[Eat Like A Bosh]

After checking out this case, I'm 90% sure she's guilty.
Her behaviors are just not what a normal mother would act like.
She obviously doesn't care about her kid.

Ugh, as much as I detest this case and the woman at the centre of it, I can see why she was let off on first degree murder.

Fact: Somebody looked up all that shit on how to make things, break bones etc.

Fact: The woman's baby was found with all those symptoms of death.

Logically speaking, there should be no connection unless you make certain assumptions, that 1) She used this information, and 2) She carried out the murder. And in a law court where you are potentially sentencing a person to die, unless that assumption is incredibly strong and undeniable (which this was not) then I don't think the jury can vote to sentence a person to die.

My mind can rationally understand the jury's decision, but my heart cannot.

[BRabbiT]

[Updated at 9:30 a.m.]

Judge Belvin Perry has sentenced Casey Anthony to one year in jail for each of the four counts of lying to police, which will run consecutively.

The judge and defense attorney Jose Baez said it will take about an hour to figure out what exact time Anthony has served and how to apply that to the sentence.

It appears that for now Casey Anthony is headed back to jail - we'll just have to wait for the specific calculations from the court to find out for how long.

Analysts appear to be saying that based on Perry's ruling - and calculations that she served about 1,000 days in court - it is likely Anthony could be free by the end of the summer.


Anthony has remained stoic during this portion of the court hearing. She is conferring with her other attorneys as the judge hands down the sentence.

But as she prepared to exit the courtroom, Casey Anthony let out a tiny smile.

its up to the jury to decide what "reasonable" is...it is there approximation. just because they come up with a different result doesn't mean they don't understand the standard. If you don't know the cause of death or time of death then how could there not be reasonable doubt. Their timeline was screwed up and the father came off as being involved, the mother was lying for her etc...Everything seems a little to fishy to say without a reasonable doubt CASEY ANDERSON killed her.

And as far as juries. There are two schools of prosecutors from my experience. Those who think that jury selection wins the case and those who just put 12 people in the box and get it going. Remember you only get a finite number of challenges that are not for cause(think race, sexual origin) and there is no guarantee that you will end up with a better juror and there is no guarantee that you adversary will not use his challenge to get rid of the juror you end up liking.

cause of death was likely aspyhixiation or chloroform, too bad the body had been decomposing for more than 6 months, partly due to Casey not reporting it for the first 30 days.

you can't expect anyone but Casey (who pleaded the 5th) to know the time of death. how would anyone but her know when Caylee died?

a lot of the stuff you're pretending we should know is impossible to know. especially given the circumstances of this case, and the person that had the most to answer for never having to answer anything.

It certainly seems like the prosecution over-reached and should have gone for manslaughter or something similar. But Grace has a point to some degree. Were there doubts about her guilt? Yes. Were these doubts "reasonable"? That's debatable. I think oftentimes juries confuse "beyond a reasonable doubt" with "beyond a shadow of a doubt". There will always be doubt in these cases. One expects the jurors to be able to put 2 and 2 together though.


i might be wrong, but they could've convicted her on lesser murder charges i think that wouldn't have been the death penalty but they didn't. i read something about Florida law allows juries to do something along those lines.

again someone correct me if i'm wrong here, and i don't remember where i read it.

cause of death was likely aspyhixiation or chloroform, Or something else entirely...




you can't expect anyone but Casey (who pleaded the 5th) to know the time of death. If she didn't do it, maybe the person that did...

how would anyone but her know when Caylee died? Of course that's assuming she was even around Caylee when she died.

It was just announced she's getting out of Jail next Wednesday.

It's clearly obvious that the crazy bitch killed her daughter, but sadly there's not really much evidence (other than circumstantial) so she has to walk. I really would've liked to see her fry, though. Living in Florida I see a lot of unhinged single moms like her all the time and it probably just hit too close to home.

Remember guys, don't stick your dick in the crazy

like what else entirely was her cause of death? any ideas? and explain why we don't know what her cause of death is...i mean you don't think it being 6 months after she died and the body decomposed, with tape around the mouth and nose areas of her skull indicates anything? nor the chloroform found in Casey's trunk? oh thats right she was starting a air conditioning business.


but how would we or anyone know? its like you're expecting us to HAVE to know time of death to prove her guilty, but in reality nobody but the killer would know, and even if we had the killer or Casey was talking its not like they'd tell us. I can't see how this is such a necessity considering how difficult/impossible it is to know.


i'm just really curious but how do you explaiin Casey not reporting Caylee missing for the first month? :confusedshrug:

nor the chloroform found in Casey's trunk? None was found on the body...

I can't see how this is such a necessity considering how difficult/impossible it is to know.You do realize that even without that there's still not a shred of concrete evidence that confirms her guilt.

She's a bad mother that doesn't care enough for her child to report when she goes missing. There's countless absentee and neglectful parents out there, doesn't necessarily mean if their child turns up dead they murdered them.

If she was a man or even another race, I'm sure she would have gotten convicted... :confusedshrug:

They shouldn't have pursued the death penalty. They should have just pursued life imprisonment. I really think the jury didn't want a death of a female on their hand and I'm sure they all feel bad once they get home and see what everyone sees, after all they don't get to know all the "facts" as they are not all allowed in court.

Personally I think she did it. Hopefully her The State Attorney sue for or try her in in court for another crime since she cannot be tried again for the same crime (double jeopardy). Why can't they get her for involuntary manslaughter, something else that can stick for more prison time.

IF she didn't do it, and that's a big if, she definitely knows who did it or played a part in hiding up an accidental death, which should definitely be punished.

what i'm trying to say is the lack of direct evidence is all related to the time and circumstances it took to find Caylee's body, which was hindered by Casey to begin with, and that it would be impossible to prove everything you're expecting HAS to be proved when the body has decomposed and the trunk cleaned.

Where did you get the tape was placed well after she had decayed? so you're saying someone went back and put the tape there? i never read that...

Bad mother might fly with a 12-16 year old being gone for a week, but a 3 yr old doesn't just run off and the parent not knowing or just being a bad parent can't be normal whatsoever for a month period without reporting it. you keep making up these very far reaching, unbelievable excuses across the board, and acting like there is no evidence. theres a TON of evidence IF only Casey had to answer for being the prime suspect and impeding the case at every opportunity, as well as her ridiculously guilty behavior.

[ihatetimthomas]

I can see why she was not found guilty given the lack of concrete evidence. Although all the circumstantial evidence points to her, reasonable doubt is there.

What I have a problem with is that she got what only 4 years for lying and obstruction of justice for 30 days? If anything, they need to increase the punishment for this.

KOLBCTEW, Do you believe, Caylee died in an accidental drowning in the family's backyard pool?
