Am I the only one who thinks all of the hype of the Casey Anthony case was ridiculous?

Question

I mean there was nothing really interesting about the case at all. Yet people are so worked up over it. What factor do you believe race and gender played in this case? If Casey Anthony had been a black man would people have been as interested? If Caylee Anthony had been a hispanic boy would people have been as interested? Plus consider the fact that while everyone is so worked up over this case, A 13 year old boy justdied after living his whole like in a cage from being beaten and malnourished yet I see no publicity for that heinous act. Was Missing White Woman Syndrome the driving factor behind the publicity of this case.

Answer 1

It only made news because there were lots of pics of her and the baby. If they were black w no pics, the news would not care.



People don't care about the evidence, they just want to bash Casey. Why don't they look up Dr. Vass, the one who claims there was a shocking amount of chloroform present. He also dabbles with divining rods, ok? DIVINING RODS. And the FBI guy REFUTED his evidence. This trial was a joke and people are media-brainwashed, pitchfork-toting sheep.



Nancy Grace stirs the THUGS up emotionally with the precious baby girl and devil is dancing stuff. They are also clueless about reasonable doubt. I don't mind if someone thinks Casey is guilty, I DO mind when people say they hope she is killed on the street, or that the jury should be killed. The verdict was just.



Proof media lies/misleads: CAYLEE WAS NEVER FOUND WITH DUCT TAPE STUCK TO HER NOSE AND MOUTH.



Mouth was rotted and bones chewed by animals, so how can they say tape was on mouth? But I covered my dog's face with cloth and tape before I buried her. It is almost universal, people want to cover or close eyes and mouth before burial, not throw dirt in open eyes, etc, Maybe Caylee had mouth open, with death gasses coming out, flies crawling in it, fluid leaking, so they cover with cloth then tape, maybe just tape. THEY FOUND 3 Pieces of tape, one for mouth area, two for eyes? You don't want to kiss child goodbye without closing mouth and eyes by mortician wax, insecticide, and thread, or at least tape or cloth in a panic. I think the body was gonna get moved again to some final resting place, or possibly "cremated".



Expert witnesses said tape was likely applied after death. There was a piece of tape stuck to her hair and side of skull. Expert says tape was probably simply holding jaw bone to skull after decomp. Also, tape sticky enough to stick to matted hair, but no DNA on tape leads one to believe tape might not ever have been on skin. Tape could have come from the bag. Three small pieces of tape cannot be murder weapon by themselves, you would need to tie arms back too, do something else. And there was no heart sticker found on Caylee, that's a fact. But so what if there was?



Dad probably told Casey he would bury child, because she could go to jail for drowning accident, police will call it murder. Casey went along with Dad's plan, did not report death. Accidental drowning MUCH more common than someone killing child in order to have more sex. ACCIDENTAL DROWNING NUMBER 2 KILLER OF KIDS UNDER 5. Casey might have drowned in grandad's pool, he didn't want to lose his house and insurance. Perhaps Grandad had bad fence around pool, or negligent in some other way? Casey could then sue her parents for negligence. Maybe Casey was negligent in some way. You want evidence of drowning, like finding water in lungs? Sorry, you can't have that. The body was rotted.



Waiting 31 days to say child was missing, well because she was dead. Maybe someone was negligent about the drowning because they had drugs in their system, and that's why they waited a month to clean system? Now I don't know this happened AT ALL. But people don't report car accidents, taxes, injuries all the time. People make Bad decisions. There are reasons why someone would cover up accidental death.



Prosecution COULD NOT EVEN PROVE A MURDER TOOK PLACE, COULD NOT RULE OUT ACCIDENTAL DROWNING. Jury was right to come back with not guilty verdict.



Casey's support system is young and socializing, not in her room alone with her. That is why she goes out. Regarding the tattoo, lots of people in this country drink and get memorial tattoos shortly after a loved one dies. "Bella Vita" could be a tribute to her daughter. She certainly couldn't get RIP Caylee at that time. Couldn't wear an ever-popular memorial t shirt. Couldn't put a memorial sticker on her car.



I google bank heists, bullet-proof shirts, ice bullets, and poison pens. I just googled chloroform. Googling is not a crime. "Casey" googled chloroform after "she" saw a joke about it on the internet. Doesn't make her a murderer. 84 times googling is a ridiculous, unreliable number. Do they count reading several search results for the term as googling it several times? Or refreshing page? Or favoriting? Or emailing to oneself?



The reports of a "no regrets" diary entry confessing to a murder are just not true. Look for the YEAR the diary entries were written. The chloroform stuff was insignificant traces that proved nothing. YOU probably have chloroform in your house right now.



Bottom line, NO PROOF A MURDER OCCURRED, NO PROOF CASEY DID IT. NOT GUILTY. Disagree with my theories and opinions about what happened and there is still not enough evidence. Before you sentence someone to death, the dots MUST to be clear and close enough on their own for you to see the picture before you connect them.

Answer 2

Whether or not she's guilty, there was not enough evidence to support that verdict. The jury cannot convict based on circumstantial evidence. They can, but it's very difficult to do so. I think she had something to do with the crime. The way Caylee was "murdered" is very sad. But the jury had no other choice but to say not guilty. Casey Anthony, that is if she killed her two year old daughter, will burn in hell for her actions. Someone will try to kill her in the coming years. Or she'll end up on Celebrity Rehab.

Answer 3

I don't have TV, but I was visiting family when the case was being tried, and it was the only thing CNN bothered to show, though cases like this happen in all 50 states all the time...there wasn't really anything that remarkable about it.



I don't think the fact that she was white made the networks cover it so much, tho she was kinda attractive, which might have helped a bit...

Answer 4

The people who mistreated the boy will have justice done while Casey Anthony walks free as a bird. In ANY case where the culprit doesn't get what they deserve would have this kind of publicity.





s s@ Not guilty does not equal innocent. I think she did it, just the fact that she didn't report the child missing for so long screams guilty, the fact she lied about her being kidnapped screams guilty.

Answer 5

It had nothing to do with justice, because this has been happening for years and yes I think if she would been lower white trailer trash or some inner city black person or hispanic they would of blew it off

Answer 6

Nope, Im sick of hearing about it as well.



There was simply not enough evidence for proof. And that is was our justice system is all about. PROOF.



On my FB page people were going on and on for days about it. So sorry, maybe Im just emotionless, but get over it.



I'd rather pay tribute to all the Soldiers that die protecting our freedoms.

Answer 7

Yes, you are the only one. Grown-ups care about the safety of children and when that is betrayed by the mother, it is a very big deal. If that's boring to you , you can post in subjects you are interested in. What are they doing over in 'bongs' without you?

Answer 8

The news made it ridiculous. She has since been released, but they're still replaying her case and analysing it... as though they can miraculously change the verdict.

Answer 9

No, I think so too.
