  • Casey Anthony, and Personal Feelings

    I admit, I set myself up.

    I simply couldn’t believe a jury would let her walk…but walk she has. And please…no words about how they might get her for perjury…or the slap on the wrist for lying to the cops in the first place. No. I will never believe justice was done in this case. Over at Facebook, some people were discussing the “evidential” aspects, and more or less saying there just wasn’t proof.

    Several years back, one of my cousins lost her child. That’s the polite way to state it. Factually, someone murdered her six month old daughter. She had recently moved in with a new boyfriend. She went to the market…and when she came home, the EMT’s were fruitlessly trying to bring her baby back.  The boyfriend said he had no idea what had happened. But there was a mark on the wall. A mark the exact shape and size of an infant’s head. The baby died of massive head trauma. There were no witnesses. Just that mark…and a dead baby. He was convicted, I believe.

    But what bothers me is that there really wasn’t any more proof in that case, than they are claiming for Casey Anthony. He didn’t hide the body. He didn’t lie to the police about a fake kidnapping. And for damned sure, no one will offer him a book deal when he gets out.

    this just bothers me…
