Anthony verdict

[veronica_rich]

OK, Florida fen (and others, I suppose) - I kept up almost not at all with the whole Casey Anthony thing, aside from having heard her and her daughter's name once in a while in the news the past few years. (Yeah, you might think this hard to do, but I assure you, there's plenty else in the news to occupy me, since watching certain other topics is sort of part of my job.)

What do you think about today's acquittal?

As a Trial of the Century it seemed okay for cheap entertainment value. We should get a better one before the century's up (still 89 years to go!) Hopefully Ms. Anthony will get some money from the inevitable book that will come out in the next year or so to compensate for the entire country believing that she's a murderer who got away with it. I have no opinion on guilt/innocence since the only things I've heard about it are by those who profit off her being guilty-as-hell, other that to consider that she seems to be at least guilty of being pretty stupid with her actions back in '08. Murder? Eh, I'm not on the jury, and they already had their say.

My sister is convinced she's guilty and was upset not only that she "got off" but that now she's free to go have other kids and potentially kill them. My response: "Well, I guess if another one turns up dead, she might be convicted of that one, eh?"
