SR4 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 from what i gather the whole case was pretty much circumstantial evidence? one of those "maybe she did it but you really cant prove anything so STFU and stop watching the news" things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamos scorcho Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 pretty much. people are seriously furious about it - 'the justice system has failed us!'

joshuatxuk Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I had literally have literally associated the case as "that bullshit on the top of my google news feed" for months. She's getting sentenced for not reporting the kid missing right? Yeah it's sad, kid dead, mom's a white trash skank blah blah blah... What's next for the 24 hr news cycle? I mean, they can only have explain to dumb people that not guilty means "the jury couldn't find the evidence" and not "she's innocent" for a couple days.

azatoth Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 If you are about to sentence someone to death, you better have a waterproof case. This did not, even if it's pretty obvious she was somehow involved in it all. But what can you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delet... Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 yeah, evidence is crucial. Yet they would have convicted if she wasn't a pretty young whitey, i bets. Also it was funny when her brother took the stand and was weeping because no one had let him in on what was happening. I wasn't following this case, but i watch nbc nightlynews every now and again.

Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 its weird because i read the news daily but this story passed me by completely. i saw people being outraged on facebook and didnt know what they were on about. the part about her car trunk/boot stinking like corpse is kinda weird.

Guest Coalbucket PI Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Had to dig around to even find a story on this. Strange stuff but I don't know how you could expect a guilty verdict on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamos scorcho Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 you would expect a guilty verdict for this reason: you've been watching the TV set for 10 hours a day and Nancy Grace said so. since nobody here knows much about it it seems irrelevant, i'm glad it's over and dont want to think about it much more. basically this was like the OJ simpson trial except somehow far more vapid I've been sitting through everyone I live with watching this case go on day after day on HLN, and I'll be honest that unlike most people I’m relieved that this is the verdict that was reached. Thank the Founding Fathers’ that the jury has to be secluded from the media. Most people's opinion on this case has been shaped solely based on the constant yammering on by former prosecutor Nancy Grace and her various clones on all the news outlets out there. The totally one sided coverage of the case, convicting her as guilty by circumstantial evidence for the sake of ratings, and knowing full well that most people will hang someone based on rumor and conjecture was irresponsible and unprofessional at best, and a travesty of unbiased news reporting and how American's view the Justice System at worst. Americans have a penchant for seeing those on the defense as guilty just for being put in the seat, and it killed me a little inside every day when this prejudice was preyed upon by the media, and most of all that most of the people I know and love were completely willing to burn someone at the stake without taking in all of the facts and taking themselves out of the equation. There was no way to know what happened to that child, and there’s no direct evidence of to what actually happened to her. I'm glad that the Justice system still works. Nothing the prosecution said convinced me of what happened to Casey Anthony's child, and there were too many holes and possibilities as to what happened. I would have voted not guilty well beyond a reasonable doubt based on just the prosecution’s case. To critique the defense, they did a very poor job pointing out these holes; buying into the prosecution’s reliance of assassinating Casey’s character and not providing physical evidence. The whole case was pretty terrible, and I’m very glad it’s over. Unfortunately as I type this, I have to overhear Nancy Grace eat crow and continue rail on about her absolute guilt with such banter as “The jury has to live with their decision”. It’s insane, and quite sad that this is what we consider journalism, and that most people have bought into this and have personally convicted someone they don’t know.

superstix Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I agree with Vamos on this one (shocking) You can't blame the jury for the lack of evidence presented. You can't convict someone on a gut feeling. Car smelling like corpse + borrowing shovel from neighbor + constantly lying herself into a corner + partying & getting "Beautiful Life" tattoo just after it all happened + no noticeable grieving or sadness + her daughter's cadaver was found with duct tape over the mouth and and a little heart sticker on it = VERY weird. But not enough to put her away. The gross part is that she will now probably get rich from people offering huge amounts of cash for interviews and possible book / film opportunities.

superstix Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 (In case it wasn't clear, my gut feeling is that she did it, and that's based on facts, not media hype. But the prosecution couldn't prove it.) Interesting case / story though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
