Hey all you WS ers. I just checked my little "last logged in" message and the last time that I logged in on here was exactly a year ago on July 6, 2010. So much has happened since then. I must say that I am so shocked still and distressed over the verdict. I woke up this morning and the first thing I thought was that I will not mention this to my 12 year old son. He's away at camp and does not know the verdict. We have been following the case since the very beginning since poor Caylee was missing and even watched the trial together and the poor child had to witness his mom act like a crazy lady and scream and yell at the screen. He thinks that Casey was not guilty b/c he did not understand how "they know it's her" b/c according to him there was no proof. But, we adults know better. I just cannot bring myself to tell my son that if you lie, hide evidence, let you child go missing for 31 days, party after your child goes missing, drive around with the body in the car, steal from your friends, etc, etc, then you still be a free citizen allowed to roam the earth and as Mark Klass so well put it last night on Nancy Grace "continue to victimize".
For me I cannot understand how the jury was not bothered with the lack of sympathy from Casey and the 31 days non reporting. All they had to ask themselves was would they not report their own child or grandchild for 31 days.
I was always irritated by the prosecution's motive theory. I never understood why they did not bring up the fact that this idea was planted in her mind when Cindy forbade Casey to go on that trip with her buddies and she was stuck in Florida watching Caylee. I really believe in my heart that is when she started to plot to kill her.
The last thing that I wanted to ask the jury is THE DUCTAPE!! How do you wrap that around your own head??????? I cannot wrap it around my head on how they let her walk.
