Casey Anthony - guilty, or not?

I am glad I was not on that jury. I don't know what I would have decided, as from what I have read and seen, which is minimal, it would have been VERY difficult for me to make a decision based on law and not on emotion. And I say that because I was exposed to the media's interpretation of the case, not the facts that were presented in court. I've been a registered voter for 20 years and have never been called for jury duty, and when I think about it, I am somewhat glad I haven't been in fear I would get put on a case such as this.

I am not familiar with Florida law; however, I am surprised there wasn't an endangering the welfare of a minor charge in there.

I fully expect her to walk on Thursday with time served.

JVM just announced that George and Cindy are getting death threats. I can't imagine the kind of life Casey will have when she is freed, if her parents are getting death threats.

I don't care what kind of life she's going to have, not guilty does not mean innocent, and she is not innocent, just not guilty. My anger is fully on the prosecution and their lousy case.
