Jury rules Casey Anthony Not Guilty
- Thread starter HumpinHop
- Start date
I agree completely. While my gut says "she did it," I suspect that is just my "mob mentality" meter going on alert. The evidence simply was not enough to convict beyond reasonable doubt, and I don't think, had I been in the jury, that I would have entered a guilty verdict. If she did it, then she has to live with it for the rest of her life. If she is innocent, then justice was done. I just hope that people can let her get on with her life.DracoSuave said:
Everyone in this thread already made up their minds before the trial starts, and then they claim the justice system is broken when they did not get the result they wanted to hear.
Holy shit. I finally get to see if a white woman will get treated like OJ Simpson after his trial.
The jurors did their job perfectly. The defense found reasonable doubt in the prosecution's case, and the jurors did exactly what a juror is supposed to do in cases of reasonable doubt: Acquit.Dimitriov said:
This isn't at all like a civil case where whichever side is most likely wins. It's criminal; all or nothing. Innocent until PROVEN guilty, not unnocent until it seems guilty.
Her guilt was not proven. Case closed.
Honestly? I don't care. It's a small tragedy, but it is not worth all the attention media gives it. There are murders every day here in Moscow, and our media stopped mentioning them because nobody cares and the news stations will lose traffic, lol.
But seriously, I hope someday media will reform and will be showing what's really important: like how HIV is on the downroll, or how Gulf of Mexico is almost back to normal. But no, news are one big pile of soap opera.

Eh. I was never emotionaly invested in thsi case, and when Nancy Grace pretty much propped herself up on it since it started, i was at the point where i was hoping the case would go against whatever made Grace happy (I dont care for her).
But now that its over... i still dont care. I think she did it, but then again, the key word is THINK. Not know, and I'm not triyng to push that on anyone else to be their decision.
In the end, the most important thing is a child is dead, she cant come back, and no one was really brought to justice. so another "unsolved" child death case, sadly one of many in the world.

There is a reason a court and not the media are the people who run trials.

A quick brief of that story.
Someone was arrested for a murder.
Media went crazy saying he was guilty and gave evidence.
The person was then released without charge
A few months later someone else was arrested and admitted to the murder.
Now same papers are on contempt of court charges because their "evidence" would have made a fail trial inpossible.
Though I am guessing there will not be any contempt of court charges against the media in the US due to free speech.
Side note: I also belive that she is guilty but there is no way in hell I would ever give someone the death penalty if no one could tell me if someone had drowned in a pool or suffocation.
By the way is there any kind of protection program in the US to stop someone taking "justice" into their own hands when she gets out?

Casey Anthony is a disgusting "human". If ever there was a time to dust off the Gallows, it would be to hang her. However since I'm against the death sentence I must rethink my.....no screw it, she should be hung.
I understand they need more evidence to convict her of anything....but come on, It's pretty damn obvious that she's the person behind her daughter's death. I just hope they find more evidence pertaining to the case later and can pull that sorry waste of space in front of a jury again. Too bad they couldn't find something major to prove once and for all that she did it.

this all started back in 2008, yet I'm hearing about it now, hmm.
anyway, I read through the wiki article and this is just too suspicious. Everything points to Casey Anthony as the murderer.

I'm getting sick of these people on hear saying how our system is corrupt and unfair. Sure there were cases in the past the carried some reasonable suspicion on verdict, but those cases have been called out on and have been publicly berated by all judges and even by all the justices on the U.S. Supreme Court. The fact of the matters is while I do not agree with the verdict, the verdict still stands. "Beyond a reasonable doubt" means that there has to be absolutely no doubt in whether or not a person is guilty. The facts from both sides of the case were sort of vague and weak. Along with that there were many other possibilities as to what caused Caylee's death but no one is really sure.
So before you go about saying how our legal system is rubbish, the point of it is to prevent an innocent person from going to jail, not to agree with your what the verdict should be (unless your in jury of course).
Remember, you are entitled to your opinion of her innocence. Although she may have been found not guilty of murder, like most of you(myself included)I still think she was guilty, and knowing the sheer number of many other Americans disproving of the verdict she is going to have an incredibly hard life ahead of her both mentally and physically.
If you want to absent mindlessly vent your frustration then just got to youtube.
sorry about the abrasiveness but some of these comments are getting a little out of hand

Agreed. Now I don't know much about the case, but it sounds like the only evidence of her guilt is that she wasn't sufficiently sad about her child's death, and partied afterwards.Woodsey said:
That makes her a worthless ****, but it doesn't make her a murderer. A court of law needs to be impartial and require hard evidence, and I just don't see that here.
