That means Anthony's life is only going to get harder, say legal, media and mental health experts.
"I suspect she's not going to have a very pleasant life," said Karin Moore, a law professor at Florida A&M University who has watched the case. "This will follow her where ever she goes."
I just hope she has a lifetime of misery.

I'm glad you took my comment in the spirit that it was meant. It was not meant to be insulting.
I can understand why you would be angry. I would caution you that your understanding of the facts is most probably colored by the Media. People (and I use that word loosely) like Nancy Grace who start screaming at the top of their lungs that the accused is guilty can't help but have an influence on you. It's only natural. 12 people who did nothing but focus on the case were unable to find, beyond a reasonable doubt, that she was guilty.
In this particular instance, the whole thing has been highly publicized and it's unlikely that you would be able to bring any more exposure to the issue. Working to "punish" the mother can't help but keep you involved and in an negative emotionally charged way. I submit that you don't need that sort of energy in your life. I can't imagine anybody really does.
Unfortunately, when you're talking about the death of a child, or any person for that matter, Justice is an empty word. Unlike property theft, fraud, etc nothing can ever undo the event. It's easy to slip from justice to vengance when emotion gets involved.
If you really feel like you want to do something, I would suggest take a more positive approach to the situation. Perhaps use your same skills and resources to help publicize options for parents that don't want their children for whatever reason. Maybe you could even volunteer at an organization that deals with child forefeitures.
It's my thoughts that any parent that even considers killing their child is obviously mentally ill, but maybe just one borderline case comes accross some information that pushes them to leave their baby at a fire hall and not in an alley, well or bag. If that happens just one time, I submit it would be far better justice for Calee than any negative campaign against her at very least cold and uncaring mother.
