I was going to try and watch the movie as it aired, so I could follow along with you all. You always have such great discussions here, but my little ones had other plans for me. I'm watching it now, and already so frustrated! This trial, the jurors, the dt, all of the A's, and most especially, fca, get under my skin like no one, or no thing ever has. I wasn't a member here during the trial, but my mother and I spent most of that month and a half on the phone, watching it together. When that verdict came down I was physically sick. I can't explain why this case affected me so much. I've followed other cases where mothers have killed their child/children, but this was different, even before the verdict. I'm sure part was because of darling, little Caylee, and the other part is probably because I hate fca so much. I truly hate her. And I looked so forward to seeing her get convicted...
During the movie, when LDB is giving her opening statement, the camera shot is from the perspective of the jurors, and smack in the center of their line of vision sits fca... IMO, she's just plain creepy, and gives me the heebie geebies... And I knew she was straight across from them, but actually seeing what they saw the whole trial ticked me off even more. Little bitty fca in her toddler chair, with all kinds of lovemaking going on... She was more like the prom queen than the defendant. I don't know why any of that was allowed. The dt created a circus over there, and the jury had the best seats in the house, and yet still missed what the rest of the world saw right through... So much of this case I just don't understand... Probably time to turn the tv off... :banghead:
All jmo.
