Casey Anthony: Guilty or Not Guilty?

Interesting take my friend. I am maybe the only person in America that hasn’t followed this trial. Seems just about everyone else I know is really caught up in it. So my take regarding her guilt or innocence is really based on what I have heard second hand.

I use to be a strong advocate of cameras in the courtroom because given the miscarriages of justice this country has witnessed over the years I thought it would provide some sense of accountability among the participants and in most cases that is true.

But in the sensational cases….the ones that many in society use for television ratings and material to further their prurient interests in the misfortune of others….televised trials can really compromise the proceedings and if not the legal rights of defendants than at least the social perception of their charges.

I am sure Casey is guilty of some heinous act and probably will be found by a jury of her peers accordingly….but the nature of the proceedings and the circus that comes with the coverage…turns our legal system into entertainment and that is the problem in my eyes.

The legal system seems to be going the way of our news coverage… 24 hour cycles that need to fill dead air with sensational content in order to attract viewers. Don’t get me wrong….I was GLUED to the tube when the OJ trial was on. Hell I knew the minutes better than the court reporter. But since then I have been able to see how murder is “glamorized” and pundits and experts make good livings out of arguing the case nightly. Progress I guess.

However this trial comes out….a beautiful young child that deserved so much better is still dead. The mother is left to answer for her deeds if judged guilty and Nancy Grace and the rest of the judicial parasites will find another host with a dead child or a crawlspace full of death and the world will move on.

In its wake will our judicial system be made better or worse by its presence? Hard to say….but I am sure the ratings will be through the roof….

My ex was a holy roller before I met her and she would never tell me what she was saying when she spoke in tongues. If it was anything like she said to me….I am glad it was indecipherable….. ; )

Thank you Abby. I love Jehovah Witnesses. I have argued with them for years. During the summer I would take them lemonade under the tree and debate. Never had a good explanation for the omission of the dinosaurs…but they tried. I have the ONLY house in my area that is blacklisted by them….LOL!

What Is Love?

Thank you A….. ; )

Thank you Abby and well said. When I wrote this I never really expected the level of outpouring from so many different people. We all have much in common in what we love but the way we dispense it and the walls we at times erect to guard us from it varies greatly.

Your post like so many of the others does illustrate one thing. Love comes in many shapes….exists on many levels and is still a bit of a mystery to most people.

Reading everyone’s comments really gives one a rare glimpse into a world that makes them uniquely who they are.

For me it seems when I am looking for love I rarely find it but when I close myself off from it….it finds me….
