I have been thinking this all along. Baez stated early on we will be shocked at the truth when Casey gets to tell her side of the story. I always felt that the defense was going to use an insanity plea, maybe they will argue that yes there was a nanny in Casey's eyes by the name ZFG and that is who killed Caylee. They will make this claim since the so called ZFG has not been found; Defense: Doesn't mean that she (So called ZFG )is not the one responsible, and that is where the reasonable doubt will be drilled into the juries head.
Or they will claim that Casey has another personality. I have heard here and there that Lee didn't know who Casey was, same as Jesse. They claim this is not the Casey they know.
In either case, I don't see how the judicial system or anyone for that matter can disregard the fact that a child died at the hands of her mother or whom ever.
Insane or not, it's a crime and the person should pay. Regardless of who that person may be. Any child that is murdered should have more rights. I see all these stipulations and exceptions for the criminal. Where are the Rights for the victim? It just doesn't seem fair in this case or any case regarding a murdered child "IMO".
In regards to someone that is insane committing a crime because they are not in the right frame of mind, then the penalty should not matter, there insane, they won't know the difference right? Bottom line...a child is dead. And whom ever killed the child should face the maximum penalty. Old, young, pretty, male, female, regardless of race or other. If you do the crime, serve the sentence whether it's death or life. No cold hearted murder should ever be set free. :behindbar
