Casey Anthony Found Not Guilty.

Wow..I'm not really shocked after considering evidence produced by the prosecution. Its sad at the same time no one has been held accountable in the case.

Are you kidding me? The prosecution was weak. The motive was ridiculous and they didn't even attempt to back up the assassination of character they attempted. Not to mention the forensics were non-existent. To me, it definitely looked like an accident that the whole family was involved in covering up. But that doesn't even matter to me. If you don't have sufficient forensic evidence, you shouldn't convict. Period.

I'm sorry, that was my original thought also, I should have explained myself a little clearer

. I find myself wanting to question, "Would this have happened anywhere else in the world besides here in the states"? A no guilty verdict.

Sure , it would have happened the same way anywhere else in the world. As long as the jury was able to look past their feelings about the matter and stick to just the facts of the case

there's no better person to answer that question than me

here, because of the way society frowns upon unwed mothers and the constant need to force "fornicators" to marry, there's a propensity for newly born babies to be dumped everywhere

they are trying to implement some sort of DNA process to prevent mass infanticide but it's not really happening so.....

that didn't really answer the question though, would they have found her guilty or not guilty?

What I gathered from his answer is that she just wouldn't have been in the situation she was in and not gone to trial in his country?

Maybe?

I think she probably did it but but I agree with Conan that, as far as I can tell, the prosecution didn't prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. If I had been on the jury I think I would have had to find her not guilty just like these people did.

Right decision, and it's good to see the jury had their heads on straight. People are way too easily tied up with their emotions (although I can see why they would be watching those clowns on CNN give their views on the case). I thought Baez did a great job in his closing arguments outlining that.

The evidence just wasn't there to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that she did it. Do I think she did it? Probably, but it's just pure speculation.

Pretty much agreed with all of you. I can't say whether I think she did it or not because of the evidence.
