IIRC, the family had parts of the ashes made into jewelry? Did Casey have anything/receive anything/request a piece for herself, if it's possible to know that? Surely if she had been wearing something like that or in possession of something like that, the DT would have alerted the jury to show a...

More people than we'd like to realize will fawn over anything and everything she does, be it books, interviews, movies, tv shows, radio shows, etc. and she will get $$ from it. More people than we'd like to realize will not know who/not recognize who/not care who she is, she will not quite be...

I don't believe in God/god/god(s) and I don't believe in coincidences but this sure has my head spinning and wondering if I should start! MOO

Hi, I have wondered about this too and I'm not sure if it's just my jaded thinking or if there's grounds for this thought. Can you share either here or in PM why you feel there'd be a fix, how it was done, etc? TYIA!

How in the name of all that may be holy can 12+ people believe that story to the point of "not guilty"? Hung jury is what I thought was quite likely as I can see ample room for true reasonable doubt(s). Personal experience and common sense tell me that one person can barely keep a secret, let...

I'll have to find it again in a min but I found multiple cases of people being suffocated by duct tape. I wondered if it were possibly the jury did too? I wish the state would have brought forth examples like that Why didn't they have at least some kind of charge regarding improper disposal of...

OMG??!!! What??!!

I don't think it can be good for ICA that the verdict came back this soon. I am feeling it's going to be guilty of murder in the first. With all of the evidence, I am shocked it came back so quickly. I had read several places where people thought the jury pretty much knew going into deliberate...

Did the state ever drive home that ICA never reported Caylee missing, that it was CA who made the call, even after 31 days? Is there somewhere to listen to the state's final closing arguments, the one given today in rebuttal to JB's? TYIA!

Brava! Fantastic and succinct way of stating what the wheels in my head have been chugging to state more simply. And this is something I am already instilling in my girls (not yet school age) and have been from the get-go. Regardless of what someone does to you, you and you alone are...

I'd be taking notes too if I were/my daughter/family member on trial, much less for murder 1. I'd want to take notes on any questions I had, points I wanted to make, things I wanted my attorney to correct/make clear, etc.

I can't catch up! Why did Bill S say "contempt" or "mistrial"? What happened???

I am just tuning in and trying to speed read and catch up. I can't believe Baez tried to argue being allowed to go the sex abuse route because Casey was promiscuous and compartmentalized which is indicative of sexual abuse. Yes, and a headache and stomach ache are indicative of the flu, a...

Mahalo!

OMG, I'm in HI which means I need to just stay up! It will be 3am here when the arguments start, I wonder how long they'll last? I don't want to miss it!
