I TOTALLY Agree! While watching I was intrigued by the science...but because I live in the area, I KNEW the SA was leaving out so much that would really drive it all home to just how warped and twisted family dynamic of KC, CA and GA really was...I wouldn't call it reality tv world DRAMA but it would have solidified the MOTIVE. After the state rested I felt very uneasy...I thought to myself THAT'S all you have, this is not good. Not one person testified to the love/hate relationship between KC and CA. Everyone testified that KC was a good mom. IMO, leaving out the true nature of the family dynamic was a HUGE mistake on the SA part and I still don't understand why they didn't pursue that more.
The problem with that would have been that it would have made little difference. Those jurors who have spoken, have stated that they saw the dysfunction, but they interpreted it as the reason for CFCA not reporting Caylee missing.
Giving them MORE dysfunction, was giving them more reason to excuse CFCA's behaviour.
I have a theory to tender, on how so much got overlooked.
Usually the accused has the presumption of innocence and the SA gets to overcome that presumption with evidence and testimony.
In this case, the DT kept saying WE don't have to prove anything, we don't have to do X Y Z etc, but here's what happened.
The jurors took the DT OS and tried to get the SA to prove the OS didn't happen.
Well, you can't prove a negative, there is NO evidence to support a drowning theory and the SA wasn't trying to tell us what DIDN'T happen, it was trying to show what DID happen.
Because the SA didn't prove the DTs theory didn't happen, the NG verdict was reached.
It is so totally NOT how it's meant to be,but each of those who expressed an opinion during selection said they thought she was guilty. The JUDGE asked them to set that aside.
They agreed and then used the trial to prove her not guilty, using the DTs strawmen.
EG - She could have drowned because the ladder was left up.
Cindy said both she didn't and then, yeah I even called GA.
The EVIDENCE showed she didn't call GA, which leaves only she didn't leave the ladder up.
So no possibility of an ACCIDENTAL drowning.
