Judging by the way they ruled, which was the only way they could've ruled, I say they understood it quite fine.

In all honestly, I would rather have a guilty person go free than have an innocent person convicted and executed.

Don't understand the US system? Do you?

Party on Casey - you murdered your baby and are now free as a bird with great wealth on your doorstep thanks to an ignorant jury.
If you have evidence to prove that she is guilty, you should have given it to the prosecution, because they didn't have any.

What I mean is that she doesn't have that typical killer look.
Her posture and "little girl" appearance worked in her favor.

I understand the US judicial system is imperfect. I understand we have one more psychopath running loose.

I'd rather have n guilty people go free than 1 innocent person convicted.

They really had all the evidence they needed. As I said earlier, others equally as guilty have been convicted on less evidence.

Apparently not.
The requirement of "beyond a reasonable doubt" was not met.

Do you really think it's okay that people convict people with shoddy evidence?
That's not the US I want.

I know I am being general here
But you know the defense tries to cast the best light possible.
IMO she and the entire family should be duck taped and put in a trunk...no fan here!
