The trial of the century

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

Nobody has mentioned this but is anyone else trial watchers on DK.

My husband and I have been those people that can barely tear ourselves away from the trial. Now that we are in the Jury deliberations it is winding down.

I won't say exactly how I feel about all of this but I can say my heart is broken whenever I look at that beautiful little girl and I can't imagine what that family must be going through.

Does anyone else want to weigh in?

 

NOT GUILTY!!!!!!!

 

No justice for little Caylee Marie today but maybe someday! My heart hurts.

A jury full of morons?

[Jane Smith]

Beyond a reasonable doubt is very hard to prove, and this is a clear example.  Do most of us think she did it.....probably yes, but without concrete proof, they can't find her guilty of anything other than what they did...giving misleading information.

I wonder if her sentence will be for time served.  She has been in the big house for a long time. 

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

The problem is she got off with EVERYTHING!

I think that is exactly what will happen, they can only do what the law allows for those 4 counts and I am sure it will probably add up to time served.

I am also equally as positive the her family has been destroyed ....wonder if Cindy and George will stay together and if they even can?

So very sad.

[Jennifer,Chloe & Myla]

Not what I expected to hear. Not guilty? Someone is so I guess there's enough doubt that they couldn't do it.

So she's only looking at a year for real?? Poor liitle child, nobody will know the real truth.

I can't believe these jurors.  REASONABLE doubt, not just any doubt.  I can't imagine having heard that evidence and saying that you have a REASONABLE doubt.  I am disgusted with our whole legal system at this moment.  It is like this trial was just a big game to see who could win, not about justice.  There is no justice for that poor little girl.

[Lucy & AnnaBelle's Mom]

Based on the case that the prosecution put forth, I have to say that I think this is the only option that the Jury had.  Does that mean I don't think she did it ...... absolutely not.  I think she is guilty of this, and probably lots of other things we don't even know about.  Does that mean that I'm happy with this verdict, not really, but when I listened to all of the closings, after listening to the majority of the testimony,  I just kept shaking my head.  One minute in my mind she was definitely guilty, then something would be brought up that made me doubt that, then I would be saying but what about this, or what about that?    Too many unanswered questions.  There were way too many people lying, besides Casey.  Way too much contradictory testimony, way too much speculation.  You can't condem someone to a life or death sentence on speculation.  Bottom line is that her life is basically over anyway. 

 

I do have to add though that I am surprised that the jury came back with the not guilty, because I really felt like during jury selection that there were some people that appeared to me that they really wanted to be on the jury.  I think that I was convinced that they were people that had their minds made up and wanted to be sure she was found guilty, so I thought for sure that if they didn't come back with 1st degree, that they would come back with something that would keep her locked up for a very very long time.

[Traci -Bexter & Maggie]

I am sad for Caylee!  If justice doesn't get served in this life, in the end, there will be justice.  I try to trust that so I don't get so worked up.

[Lynn & Casey]

We watched it on and off. No justice for Caylee Marie. :(
