If you are upset about the Casey Anthony verdict
I have three things to say to you: 1) unless one of the jurors or spectators read this blog, which I seriously doubt, none of us were in that courtroom, and while I can't speak for you, I don't trust the media's coverage of most criminal trials, especially not sensational ones; 2) the burden of proof lies with the prosecution to prove she was guilty NOT repeat NOT with the defense to prove she was innocent; and 3) most importantly, just because someone may be a poor excuse for a mother, or even a human being, does not automatically make them a murderer.
This notion that "justice for Caylee" somehow required the conviction of her mother for her murder speaks not of a concern for the rule of law but of a pursuit of retribution. And the equation of "justice for Caylee" with her mother not only being convicted but receiving the death penalty demonstrates a desire not for justice but for blood vengeance.
However you feel about it, the system worked.
