I see her getting murder in the 2nd and doing 20 to life. From watching the experts talk, the state has not presented a good enough case for murder 1.

what a fucked up individual.

hey user what is your "unofficial" take on this case and how do you see it ending? you have an insight into these things I don't so your opinion interests me. I don't want to put you on the spot with legal stuff, just a guess.

I have only come around to paying attention this week. Until then I thought it was silly to pay so much attention to this one case when shit like this happens all the time.

But I have to admit, it's damn good TV.

is that the juror #4? I heard tv lawyers talking about her but missed why she was significant.

This chick is psycho. Apparently during some break with the jury out of the room, she signaled for some young court intern to come over and talk with her to keep her company (what they are calling a flirting session). And this went on for 15 minutes.

EDIT: Let me add - Melvin Perry totally owned that kid.

Interesting development I was unaware of:

Earlier in the trial, Cindy (grandmother) testified that she had googled "chloroform". While her work records said she was at work that day, she said that those records may not be accurate b/c she was salaried and therefore may have been at home doing those Google searches even though work records say otherwise.

She was then impeached with records showing she was indeed at work during those searches, as shown by computer input by her. This could possibly lead to perjury charges. (this is rare and probably won't happen).

My confusion is this: Cindy said that while she searched for chloroform, she did not search "how to make chloroform." Why would she lie halfway and not go all the way saying she did all the searches?

Yeah, that woman seems sketchy to me. Never trust anyone who changes her name to River Cruise. (Rainbow Sunshine is trustworthy, however).

What has me mesmerized about the case has nothing to do with the testimony or court proceedings. To me it's all about Casey's behavior and affect. Her partying while the kid was "missing", her constant weaving of lies, how she gets caught lying then spins more lies, her bratty behavior while in jail during her conversations with her parents, and her reactions/nonreactions/flirtiness in court.

She's an enigma, and that combined with her being kinda cute is just so peculiar that I can't look away. I'm a little upset she decided not to testify.

would be good tv watching but that defense lawyer will nvr work again if he had her testify:) she's def not getting death penalty. she's def a piece of shit and deserves it but i dont think the prosecution made a good enough case for it.i'm lost on the mother possibly facing 15 yrs for perjury. i mean the law is the law but it's her daughter:( i could prob steal my parents savings making them lose their house and they would 100% still lie in court to protect me:)

i like how she told the cops she worked at, shit i can't remember where, but she even took the cops there and when they got there she's like, oh yea i don't work here anymore. was fired 2 years prior. wtf?!?! she is a crazy bitch IMO and it is def a strange trial to say the least.

Obviously this is for the worst offenders, not talking about a drunk driver killing somebody on their way home from bar.

lol. Cause someone who intentionally drives while intoxicated knowing the dangers isn't a bad person, right? If anyone gets the death penalty THESE people should. It's something that is so preventable which makes it even more tragic and heinous when it happens. Fuck drunk drivers.

I have not followed this case much at all, but is it wrong to say the case is something like this:

She did not report the kid missing for 31 days and neither did her family.
She has told a bunch of lies and she comes from a family of liars.
Her behavior is inappropriate and her family history is full of dysfunction and inappropriate behavior.

She probably gets convicted of something serious, but what a weird situation all the way around.

Also - who should play all of the key members of this case in the Hollywood movie:

Casey Anthony
George Anthony
Cindy Anthony
Lee Anthony
Judge Perry
Jeff Ashton (prosecutor)
Linda Burdick (prosecutor)
Jose Baez (defense)
Cheney Mason (defense)
Ray Kronk (found body)

I've been saying for weeks, a dry megan fox would be playing casey anthony...

Tobacco - let's kill the farmers.

Lethal injection in Florida. Although being drawn and quartered would be fine with me.

I think the duct tape over the mouth and the rotting smell in the car will get her 2nd degree murder. Prob get like 40-50 years with a mandatory half served
