The fall-out after the shocking not-guilty verdict in the Casey Anthony trial has included everything from sideshow-style predictions to what many feel is a crime covered by another crime.
As I read articles about it, I see comments like “get over it, the jury spoke” or “haven’t we heard enough of this already“.
“Jeez! Can’t ya move on?” and such.
I am so full of Casey Anthony that yes! I’d love to never hear her name again!
But, to let it go and accept the injustice that a massive majority of people feel was carried out here seems to me like we are being asked to abandon what we’ve all been standing for since July of 2008! That’s a long time to care and then be asked to look away! Especially in this day and age where these crimes of “disposable children” is on the rise! How, as a society can we look away?
People spent every means possible to find Caylee whether it be on foot or on a prayer-bent knee. People looked until Caylee’s body was found and then what did we see? A cute little swivel-assed girl getting away with her murder while destroying everyone in her path! What does that say about us? What kind of society are we?
Lawyers say that there are other cases where the defendant is found guilty all the time so just know that the system works!
Um, no it doesn’t!!
Even Casey’s lawyers wouldn’t let her babysit their children because they know she’s guilty but likable! She’s likable!?
The system doesn’t work! How many people are in prison today that shouldn’t be just because they got the wrong combination of “peers” and not all of the evidence was admitted? I personally know one. As I’ve said before in previous articles, take a look around at your peers, man! It’s scary!
So, while Casey Anthony’s 3-year prison stint that was supposed to be for other charges that she was found guilty of, check cashing fraud, etc., is being used to fulfill her new charges that she was found guilty of…4 counts of lying to authorities, we are supposed to let it go! Wow! She’s serving double-duty time? What is that? Is that even legal?
While there are still unanswered questions as to why the jury heard several times that duct tape around the mouth was the cause of death and then states that they had no cause of death and that’s why they acquitted her, we’re supposed to “let it go”? WTH?
The more I hear from the jury, the more I cannot believe their verdict! I just listened to the foreman tell Greta that basically Caylee committed suicide, got into her mother’s trunk and then waited to jump out when she got near the pet cemetery after miraculously duct taping herself and putting herself into bags. Unbelievable!! It’s almost as disturbing as the crime they were judging!
When you care about something you do not let it go! You fight until children are no longer thrown away without repercussion, peers are more closely evaluated and the jury’s are given all of the evidence rather than a few bartered-on pieces! How can we ask anyone to lay their head on a pillow after making a decision on a half-baked scenario!
Actually, I’m waiting for her release. I don’t sense in my gut that it will go well. And, she can change her name and her face but the evil that is within will still come out! I cannot imagine stepping into the world and being her but, I can’t imagine anything that Casey does because my mind cannot conceive that kind of evil.
I’ve still been praying really hard for Cindy, George and Lee and the rest of their family and friends who grieve. I pray for the neighborhood and hope that the neighbors forgive the Anthony’s. I pray for the jurors because I think that they were served an immense injustice by not having all of the facts, even though I believe that they had more than enough to do the job that they were asked to do. Remember that they were given other choices besides 1st degree murder and they let her go! Let it go, right?
And I’ve been watching a lot of silly stuff, even the weather channel to wean myself off of the addiction of watching the car-wreck of a trial, having had way more of Casey Anthony than I ever want to have but still standing tall for Caylee Marie and the countless others like her. May we bring them all out of the darkness into the light! To me that is the most ideal way of getting justice for Caylee, since we cannot bring her back.
And now you know how I feel about it.
Peace!
