Also, LOL at people on other sites saying she got off because 'shes white'.

The same tape found in moms car that was on the child
Trunk smelled like something died
The child was drugged, the same drug that the mom looked up on the comp
She constantly lied to police, saying she knew where her daughter was for a month
She's been partying even when her child went missing

this is getting into psychological territory, get Lasombra here

the defense poked holes in all the evidence they did have, and created alternate explanations for everything. Reasonable doubt, not guilty.

As much as the ruling sucks, the jury did exactly what they were supposed to do. It was the prosecutors who failed at getting any convictions outside of the lies to the police.

She could have just locked her in the house. Surely the child would have been able to survive for more than 24 hours on her own.

I live in Orlando, have followed the case for years, and do not believe there was solid, conclusive evidence that 1. the child was murdered, as opposed to accidental death and 2. that Casey Anthony was directly responsible for the death. The evidence in the case all was paper thin. Casey Anthony's behavior after her daughter died was outrageous. She is a bad person and a liar. However, the state did not prove their case, and I would have voted the same way if I was on the jury.

Who was saying she needed to kill her child to party?

People are saying went partying while her child was "missing" which is something mother's don't do. Usually a mother can't find her child she worries or spends a minute to look around rather than going out for a night of fun(this sort of plan also gets cancelled).

The point is she didn't do that, the trunk was more fitting. You are trying to apply logical thought to the mindset to someone who was accused of murdering their young daughter, not reporting it, and showing she didn't care. Whether she actually intentionally killed her kid or not she still has undeniable mental issue and can't be considered to rationalize this type of situation, and is guilty of child abuse and negligence even if the courts said otherwise.

Feel free to apply this kind of logic to most other case of murder/manslaughter, you will find that the person charged technically didn't have to kill the other person to get/do "xyz." (Unless they just wanted the person dead)

I don't see where the hell you are coming from. She is obviously a bad person, and should never ever be allowed to raise another child ever again. Whether she intentionally killed or allowed her daughter to die is up for question, but the woman was an asshole and deserves every bit of criticism these meanies on the internet throw at her skank ass.

No, there was plenty of evidence to suggest at least murder. The damn duct tape. I will agree that there was no evidence that created a solid link that pointed specifically to Casey.

The bitch still did it though.

I believe she's been drugging her kid for a while now, be it with Xanex (sp?) orgradually moving up to chloroform for the purposes of having her completely subconscious and out of the way. Almost like a doll that she could conveniently deposit just about anywhere, go about her business for hours on end and then return once the fun she'd been engaging in ended.

My theory doesn't mean jack though. What's interesting to note is that  the jurors are trying to spin their justifications now that they've witnessed the almost unanimously negative response and backlash to their verdict. In my honest opinion it was a perfect example of three major contributing factor's that resulted in the jury's decision: 1.) jurors with limited intelligence and the inability to accept science beyond their scope of familiarity (e.g.  CBS's late night programming roundup), 2.) buyer's remorse, and 3.) group-think. These people thought that they initially wanted to be a part of this jury which is the only reason why they were there, but as the trial waned on they grew weary and were simply ready to arrive at the simplest conclusion they could form. I don't believe that this jury truly understood what reasonable doubt meant, they really used an accused criminal's mindset when rendering their verdict IMO and anything beyond them seeing actual video footage of Casey Anthony murdering her daughter was not going to sway them from their decision. Cases are won with circumstantial evidence everyday, & I believe the State's case, compounded with catalogued and recorded evidence of the accused's behavior during the 31 days beforehand and the deluge of lies after the fact, points the finger definitively at her but once again, they were a jury of her peers, and anyone who can't see the value of a highschool education isn't likely to be too perceptive when it comes to other matters.

What disturbs me more is that people are going to hire Jose Baez because he'll be known as, "the lawyer who got Casey Anthony off," despite the fact that he is the absolute WORST fucking lawyer I've ever seen in my entire life. He HELPED the prosecutors, behaved inappropriately both in and out of the courtroom, and yet there was STILL a not guilty verdict.

More like I'll hire Casey Anthony if I need to have a baby killed without anyone asking questions.

I should mention the Salem witch trials every time some one goes on on a conspiracy theory.

Why did the person who found the body tamper with it? Tampering leads to acquittals.

The whole family are liars.

Don't you see?
She knew that it wasn't Casey Anthony.
She's just trying to get on the inside so she can finish the job.
