What's the deal with the Casey Anthony trial???

The media circus is finally over!!! Casey Anthony was acquitted of capital murder charges! I have to tell you, the verdict has restored a little of my faith in our justice system. Wait! I don’t necessarily think she’s innocent…you and I know better than that! She KNEW what happened to Caylee, that’s why she didn’t report it for so long! (That doesn’t mean she murdered her, but I truly believe she KNOWS what happened to her daughter.) However, all the prosecution had was completely circumstantial. They really stretched it with their “expert” witnesses. They didn’t have a solid case, therefore the jurors didn’t have a choice but to acquit – there WAS reasonable doubt! The only crime she was found guilty of is lying to the police, which carries a maximum sentence of 1 year per count. It is my estimation that she will get off with time served…guess we will find out on Thursday.

Either way, Casey Anthony’s joy at the outcome of the trial will be short lived. People are ANGRY and all those angry people know where the Anthony’s live. There will be no peace and quiet for them! Probably be better for them to move somewhere else, while contemplating that book/made-for-TV movie deal!!!

So while Casey Anthony is picking up the pieces of her life, we all are left with one question: “What happened to Caylee???”
