so who do you think killed Caylee?
To clarify my posts in this thread ...
The trial is over
The accused was pronounced 'Not Guilty' via the jury's verdict
Things have now changed exponentially. What we were free to say, to speculate, etc. pre trial and during the trial -- we are no longer free to say, unless we're prepared to face lawsuits (should certain persons deem lawsuits a way of drumming up needed publicity. OR -- if members of blogs and websites were threatened with libel/defamation, etc. and were they to lose -- even just on paper -- this could well be used to silence discussion AND to persuade the public that the previously-accused in this case IS innocent by virtue of the fact certain bloggers etc. had been forced to apologise to her)
We're in a transition stage. People were posting their opinions etc. freely prior to the verdict and they were basically safe from litigation
After the verdict, the accused individual was returned to society as 'Not Guilty' -- in other words, anything said or written NOW about that individual could be construed as defamation/slander/libel
I have nil faith in the individual's legal representatives' integrity. I don't want to see this site closed down and don't want to hear that any member has been charged with defamation, that's all
The media has a lot more leeway than private individuals insofar as what they can get away with. In addition, the talking-heads are covered by their networks' lawyers, insurance, etc.
It's my opinion that the previously-accused's handlers will be seeking ways of reinventing her for public consumption. It would help their case if they were able to use lawsuits against websites or individuals -- in order to portray the previously-accused as a 'victim' -- 'tiny, exhausted, wrongly-accused and defamed little victim ' -- 'poor little victim' who's being disgracefully defamed by 'witch-hunters' and 'mob mentalities' in blogs and websites
Don't know about anyone else, but I have no intention of helping them in any way to bleach that woman's reputation
Anyway, seems my posts have been miscontrued/misunderstood, so I'll sign off. Was just trying to deliver a warning to the posters here. Because I suspect a certain team of unscrupulous lawyers will stop at nothing ...
