Yep, we helped. We helped spread awareness and knowledge. Awareness and knowledge that made people take a second look at their neighbor, their relative maybe even their spouse. That was Caylee's gift......I have no doubt that many children have been spared a fate similar to hers because of the attention this case has received. As for the DT and the PT reading here...if they weren't they could get it else where. Mock juries for one. This is not anything they have not been doing forever...the net just makes it easier.
Time to move on. Working on getting a new president might be worthwhile
expenditure of rhetoric/typing skills
according to the jurors interviewed so far:
1)the prosecution lawyers weren't as fun to watch as JB
2)George behaved badly on the stand
3)they didn't want to be responsible for anybody's death without knowing "manner of death" of the victim
Ohhhhh the insanity!!!!
I have wondered about this. Nancy Grace gave a lot of attention to this case, and I thought it was good during the 3 years...but after the verdict, now I have serious doubts about how "good" the attention actually was.. Escpecially if it meant picking a jury of people who are so far removed from what is going on - just because they were the last 12 people out of hundreds in a county 2 hours away that hadn't heard of the case enough to be obvious about it. IMHO, justice was NOT done, and I can't help but realize that it probably is because of the media circus that was created.
And I'm not sure what good we did here, either. Maybe we should just focus on solving mysteries and not get involved in dialogue-ing during the trial. Just a thought, i really don't know, but i feel concern about the topic.
I hope FCA rewards her supporters and benefactors by robbing them blind. They deserve it.
I have no doubts this will happen and guess who'll be first? JB, then CM, then the electric hair lady. :floorlaugh:

I think JB will be the one to get robbed blind. CM said in an interview that if Casey needed a place to stay that he would only allow her to live with him for awhile. I think CM is the type of person that would eventually tell Casey to support herself. As for Dottie Clay Sims, she probably wouldn't let Casey stay in her home. The purse incident during jury selection and Dottie's incident on Joy Behar of her dodging a babysitting question showed that Dottie isn't 100% comfortable around Casey.
JB seems to have gotten too close with Casey.
Otto,
I agree with your final paragraph. How can we stop 'helping' the defense teams in upcoming trials? Now that we KNOW they are picking our brains for their guilty client's benefits. We laid out George as the perfect Defense strategy. What can we do differently for Drew Peterson's trial? I am sure that Amy Singer lady will be back here, with her paid vultures once again.
Exactly, so if social media reduced the discussion of this case at this time to one thread, rather than 5 or 10, it begins to push the story out of the media ... and it stops feeding the lawyers the information that they crave and need in order to make their next move.
I can only pray that this be a lesson to the Judicial System, to change what can or cannot be allowed into opening statements.. This case was BEYOND what should have been allowed into opening statements...
THIS NEEDS TO STOP NOW..!!!!
This is our JUSTICE system for God's sake... not who can outlandishly lie ..... C'mon..!!
Seriously, where have you been for the past 2 -3 years? Social media (SM) has sucked the life out of us. It almost dictates everything we do, how we think, how we behave. You can resist as much as you like, SM has become ingrained in our lives and is steering behaviours and reactions. I'm not surprised the DT looked at SM for direction. It's not rocket science to gauge general reactions and feelings via any platform. We're all whoring ourselves on the Internet ... why is this case any different.
We fed this machine, everyone needs to take some responsibility if the DT truly looked at SM for direction.
