Casey Anthony case

OK, I wasn't going to offer up my opinion however, after listening to people in my little neck of the woods, I feel compelled to announce a few facts on the verdict.
When we go to trial, a jury is selected by both the prosecution and the defense. Each agreeing on every juror in the box. The trial begins and both sides have the right to present their side of the story with the times, events, witnesses and oh yea facts. Only the jury hears the complete case and has the ability to go over all the testimonies and facts that were presented. Why is it that when a jury agrees on a verdict that we (out side the courtroom) don't agree with, we assume that our thinking was correct and the jury's verdict was wrong.
The prosecution has the ability to leak magnified information to the trial audience such as all who followed. This information can completely dictate our judgment causing the masses to jump to false conclusions. This my friends it happens all the time and especially if the jury isn't sequestered. This jury was sequestered and my complete sincere thank you goes out to each one of them and their families as they paid a price to help our social structure.

Casey Anthony is NOT GUILTY of murder. Casey Anthony is NOT like OJ. Please understand that the only people that have the in depth facts is the jury.

Well, now that you have heard my opinion,  what about you?


ORLANDO, Fla. -- After 33 days of testimony, 400 pieces of evidence and more than 90 witnesses, the jury in the Casey Anthony case has reached a verdict.
After just a day of deliberation, jurors informed the court at midday that they had reached a decision, and both sides in the case were ordered to assemble in the courtroom.
Anthony has been found not guilty of killing her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee. She was also found not guilty of aggravated child abuse and aggravated manslaughter of a child. But she was convicted on charges of misleading law enforcement.
The case against Anthony was mostly circumstantial, but as it unfolded she was portrayed in the trial as a promiscuous, self-centered woman who became a cold-blooded killer. The motive, prosecutors alleged, was to allow her to live a carefree life without her daughter.

The state's case theory was that a desperate Anthony used chloroform to subdue her daughter and then suffocated her with duct tape. Anthony then fabricated fantastic lies to cover up her deeds, they said.

Anthony's attorney Jose Baez told the jury his client was the victim of an abusive upbringing.

According to Baez, Casey Anthony and her father, George Anthony, were home alone on June 16, 2008, when they noticed Caylee was missing. They began a frantic search, looking under beds and in the garage. Then George Anthony took the search outside to the above-ground pool where they found a lifeless Caylee floating in the water, Baez said.
