A Serious Post: Thoughts on the Casey Anthony Case



Hello, everyone.  I've decided to put aside Mz. Chick for a moment and discuss some of my thoughts on the Casey Anthony case.  I just wanted to jot down some of my observations and the reasons why she "got off."  I'm sure I'm gonna get a couple of Mz. Chick's fans upset over some of my observations, but I invite you to read this post with an open mind and post your own reactions.  I'm not going to ban anyone from my Twitter or think you are an awful person if you disagree with me.  I'll listen to your point of view with an open mind as well.

Again, this is all in my own opinion.

The main reason why Ms. Anthony got off was because the prosecution did not do its job.  They did not prove their case, plain and simple.  They did not tell the jury how Ms. Anthony killed little Caylee, when she actually killed her or even where Caylee was killed.  Instead, they were relying on the juries emotions.  Obviously, a precious little life was taken, someone has to pay, and evidence be damned!  This is what I call the "Nancy Grace" effect, and why I detest this woman so much.  Our judicial system does not work on emotions, but on facts.

To bolster my point on this, the defense won.  If you have been following the trial, you know the defense was lousy, and I can't imagine anyone truly "liking" the attorneys based on their behavior in the court room alone.  In fact, in my opinion, all of the attorneys were lousy.  That is a big plus for the defense because the prosecution has the burden of proof, while the defense can throw a bunch of shit at the wall and hope something sticks.

Something that is quite disturbing is some of the reactions towards the jurors.  The jurors were only allowed to consider the evidence presented to them and had to be sure beyond a reasonable doubt that Ms. Anthony was guilty.  They did their job as they were sworn to do.  Quite frankly, I'm surprised at all the hate towards the jurors, when it should be going to the prosecution.

The bottom line is this: the prosecution failed to give justice to little Caylee.  I'm not sure how they will sleep at night for doing such a lousy job.

Rest in peace, little girl.  I'm sorry we couldn't give you justice.
