@occasionalrain.  Juries get it wrong many times. For a lot of different reasons. Innocent project comes to mind.

They said there was not enough evidence to convict her,  i don't see her father doing it, and the body was in her trunk.


 

 

@goldensrbest  The body wasn't found in her trunk.  It was found wrapped in a blanket inside a trash bag in the woods near her family's house.  I'm not defending her.  I think she was clearly guilty.

Not guilty doesn't mean she was innocent. It means the jury didn't find enough evidence to convict her, which means she could very well be guilty like most of us believe she is.

Isn't she the one that didn't report her daughter "missing" for 30days or more?  Never told anyone until her Mom started calling the police on her?

 

Just because her lawyer got her off with murder doesn't mean people shouldn't use better judgement

@goldensrbest  The Father and Mother  have no relationship to Casey anymore. They cut her  out of their life.  SMART PEOPLE.

There have been a ton of ‘parent-kills-child’ stories

Why has this particular story remained in the news cycle?

Whenever I see her name, there’s always a thought-bubble

over my head that says, “Geeeze, why is she relevant?”

 

In the age of not naming the shooter/killer, I’m always surprised

why the Public hangs on one particular icky person. 

 

I’ve never commented on a Casey Anthony thread & probably 

never will again, but just perplexed,

 

Why do people crawl over themselves to keep her name in the news? 


@sidsmom

 

Many people spent a lot of time watching every minute of her trial on TV.  I don't think there are other trials of parents accused of killing their children that are televised and that get the kind of coverage hers did.

 

People seemed totally invested in it and obsessed with it.  It was a TV event.  Like O.J.'s trial was.  Lots of men kill their wives, but their trials aren't a TV series.

 

So news about these people brings them back to their obsession.

No pattern of abuse.

No broken bones, old injuries.

No trips to the ER.

No police reports.

Most importantly, no cause of death so it could have natural cause or accidental.

 

Most likely she died from accidental drowning in the family pool. Casey, and possibly her father, paniced and attempted a cover up.

Why dredge up these subjects during the holidays.

@sidsmom  To answer your question, it's because she got away with murder.

Like O.J. remains newsworthy.  Both of these people should be in jail for life...at the very least.
