I dont understand why people are mad? Lets just think about this for one second If you were the defended and you HONESTLY believe you didn't kill your child. but that it was an accident that you just fucked up afterwards. Would you want to be put to death because you hide your child after death?

Because i wouldnt want to kill or be killed because of a death that was an accident. Since the only thing that person did wrong was hide the body and lie about it. If lieing about someone thats already dead worth killing one more?

I feel like this was a powerful testimony:
http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/2011/0630/Casey-Anthony-trial-Her-father-spoke-of-accident-alleged-mistress-says
"Testifying before the defense rested in the Casey Anthony trial, George Anthony's alleged mistress says he tearfully described Caylee's death as 'an accident that snowballed out of control"

This was around when I stopped following so I don't know much more. Compounding the mistress's testimony along with the expert analysis of the duct tape kind of had me expecting a not guilty charge.

She did not hold her head underwater. She gave her pills to go to sleep, ducktaped her mouth and went out to party. when she came back her daughter was dead.

This is what it would seem

is there any kind of good resource for the information in this case?? I am still kind of confused where the doubt is, but i had only been following it quite passively

I believe the first hole in the prosecution's case was when an expert showed that the duct tape had actually been placed on after the body had already decomposed. This brought up a lot of questions about the first post-mortem autopsy's accuracy and the competence of the original examiner. I didn't follow too closely after that but I also believe the defense brought up the possibility of a cover up story/possible accident that may have taken place involving Casey Anthony's father.


Cool, thanks.

Our justice system is so fucked up it doesnt matter. All that matters is there was no physical evidence despite all the lying and bullshit. Anyone who has followed this with common sense would say she killed her daughter.



how fucked would the whole system be though if you could convict on flimsy evidence?


People don't understand how the justice system works. They think people should be found guilty based on how they are perceived. They think they should be found guilty of murder because they're bad parents, etc.

A woman at work said to me "I dont think that they can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that she is not guilty." That's how people perceived this case, which is disgusting to me.

One more thing the defense put up a great fight to just show that their was no 100% evidence that the child was killed by the defended only that the child died and it was hidden.

I don't know still makes me wonder how she got off on aggravated child abuse / neglect since she didn't report her daughter missing after 30 days. Just enough time to party and get your parents to lie for you.

I wonder if her mother will get charged with purgury after saying she did the searches at home when she was really at work.
I used to be just like you, then I took a sweetroll to the knee.

There is a difference between being imprisoned and put to death, or even charged with murder 2 or EVEN FUCKING NEGLIGENCE.

There was NO justice for her child.

this is really sickening, im not a law expert but jesus christ. I learned that the law doesnt follow common sense.

there's no evidence of premeditation, so the correct ruling was not guilty on the charge of 1st degree murder

not entirely sure what aggravated manslaughter is, but based on what manslaughter is, doubt she is guilty of that either.

Involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide, more likely as to what happened, but they didn't try her for those crimes.

there was no violation of common sense.



This. I didn't follow this trial and have only heard about it in passing. I've served on a jury before, though. Generally, the judge gives the jury instructions about each possible charge. Each charge has a number of criteria that must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt before you can convict.

Murder one, for example, requires premeditation among other things. I have no idea what aggravated manslaughter is, either, but it likely has a component in addition to killing someone.

Sometimes, prosecutors overreach. They think they can convict on a greater charge than what they have evidence for. They deliberately do not include the lesser charges to prevent juries from finding the suspect guilty on the lesser charge. That strategy can sometimes backfire.

I don't understand this she told them the child got kidnapped 30 days before it was reported to a cop by her mother how isn't that child abuse. Even waiting a day or 2 wouldn't look good but an entire month WTF REALLY.

I'm guessing that aggravated child abuse requires certain elements which they didn't prove, such as malice or intent etc.

She was not guilty because she didn't abuse her child she died by an accident according with the defense. and you cant neglect something that's dead.

So my take on what probably happened:

Casey was looking up ways to put her child asleep, so she could go off and do random shit without getting a babysitter. She finds something, accidentally OD's her kid in an attempt to put her to sleep, freaks out and tries to cover it up.

Is that murder? No.
Is it manslaughter? Probably not.
Criminally negligent homicide? Likely yes.

The hardass DA trying to make a career /name for himself did more to prevent justice being served, not the jury, or the defense, or the court of law.

There is no justice in wrongful conviction or, as a previous poster puts it, "mob justice". And there apparently wasn't enough evidence to convict for aggravated child abuse.

Child neglect was dropped by both parties because you can't neglect a dead child.

People care because they have been so exposed to it, people want justice for a 2 year old that was killed.

Take your emotions out of the equation. And look at the evidence the state only proved that the child was dead and was mistreated after death. The state provided no evidence of murder other than3 pieces of tape. Which was stated in court that the tape was around the child and was speculated that the tape was the murder weapon but with no proof would u give an guilty plea with no evidence of that action?

The best part about this verdict is listening to the manufactured rage of that shrill hag Nancy Grace and her murder-profiteering colleagues.
