I had to do it once a week for 16 weeks. (Grand Jury) - never got to see anyone, just hear from witnesses.

Oh my god, I would so have convicted this b*tch! She was out partying, getting bella vita tattoos and not once being concerned about her child. Not once. Not ever. And did everything possible to blame others for everything. She accepted no responsibility for anything.
I don't like to wish ill will on people, because Karma listens, but....
I wouldn't have been fogged. I may have wondered, "did he?" But I would never have let it be a pass to kill your baby. EVER. She is a piece of trash. Not her daughter thrown away in garbage bags.Her trying to throw her dad under the bus was a nice tactic. That's a helluva yarn cooked up by her attorney. You don't have to prove the abuse against dad, just the mere mention of it to a jury is enough to fog up things.

I just don't get how it happened.Sociopath and narcissistic for sure. Goes to show you how a 90 degree monkey wrench thrown into a case can screw up a jury's mindset.

I mean, Scott Peterson was convicted on circumstantial evidence. And yes, I think he did it.
I will say, maybe they over shot their charge of murder. How could they prove murder? But she definitely killed the kid -- whether on purpose or accident. And maybe that's where the rub was. They could speculate on murder, planned and carried out, or they could've gone with accidental? I can't remember all the details. I just know in my heart I would've convicted her no matter what. I wouldn't have let her walk.
Was the jury allowed to consider lesser charges of manslaughter etc? Or was murder it?
Yep, I think you're right.The prosecution always seems to want to go a little farther than what they have evidence for. One of my reasons for opposing the death penalty is because of the prosecutors abuse of it. I think they screw up a lot of cases using the death penalty. I think a death penalty charge screws up the jury unless it's a flawless case or some complete dirtbag like Dylann Roof.
The prosecution over reached with the George Zimmerman case too. A negligent homicide or manslaughter charge probably would have got a conviction but there was no way to prove the premeditation part of a second degree murder charge.
I would have been more than happy to flip the switch on this person while she sat on an electric chair. She deserved to be put down like the dog that she is. She took her own daughter's life away and felt no remorse whatsoever. How can a person do something like that? How? Karma is definitely going to catch up with her in the end.Oh my god, I would so have convicted this b*tch!

I'm sorry, but, I watched the trial. I heard the evidence they heard. I would have convicted her of at the very least manslaughter. I think there was plenty of evidence.Wow! Jurors aren't given all of the facts and so can only vote according to what they know. Even though there was a mountain of circumstantial evidence against her, it didn't prove she killed her daughter beyond reasonable doubt. Prosecutors really dropped the ball on this one. Thanks NN, for finding this article.

Bottom line, Casey Anthony was found not guilty because she is a good looking, young, female. Really.
