Shellycrash:

She got acquitted because the state made a case out of information obtained over the years to be proven "tainted".

Example, testimony from her father. What father ever would knowingly make statements on the stand, in the final hours, that not only conflict with original statements but said in a manner that would lead to her daughters execution?

Think about that for a second? He was a cop and knew exactly how cases get tried.

Is it so far fetched that Caylee actually drowned by accident?

Well the answer is no by a jury of 12 people in 11 hours saying, all you have given me is a possible story and fuck you florida for putting me through your attempt of a lynching!

Whether she did it on purpose or by accident and then attempted to cover it up, fact is whatever she did she got away with it. Like Shelly said the state failed to fully prove their case. Now she's free, free of her 'burden', and can soon party like she always wanted to.


Mothers and mothers-to-be: If you ever feel that inconvenienced by your offspring, try adoption rather than chloroform. :2 cents:

If you agree that the parent's contradictory behavior is what created reasonable doubt then we are in agreement there.

A few of the reasons I don't find the pool drowning plausable- I don't believe if George found his granddaughter drowned in the pool he would not attempt CPR, or call 911. I agree the whole family is shady, but as dysfunctional as the family is I feel the one thing that was established is the grandparents loved and cared for their granddaughter. I also can find no reasonable explanation for duct tape to be placed over a child's face other than homicide.

It may not have been premeditated murder, the tape may have been placed there in a fit of rage, but there is no logical reason to put duct tape on a corpse. It also doesn't make alot of sense why someone would dress an accident to appear to be a homicide, but if I were to believe if a former police officer was going to stage a kidnapping / homicide to the point they applied duct tape to the child's face that person would also invest the time and effort to place the body away from their home.

Why not pull a Melinda Duckett and place it somewhere alligators could get to it? Not a ditch walking distance from the house. And why triple bag it preserving it with evidence from your own home? If george had a hand in the duct taping of that baby why would he allow himself to be seen with and continue to use something in public that is traceable and ties back to the crime. In my mind it doesn't make sense.

I think the duct tape was tainted by shotty handling in the fbi lab, they have admitted it was accidentally handled by staff members who were not wearing gloves. However I do believe that child's body was in the trunk of that car, which can be established was in the custody of Casey. She even texted her friends that the smell was from a dead animal plastered to the frame and after she ditched it she told them it was in the shop to get the animal remains removed.

Not to mention the numerous times it was proposed to her by law enforcement that it might have been an accident, and was explained to her that had it been an accident she would receive a lesser sentence. They were offering her pleas all the way up until the body was found.

This is just some of what I got out of the evidence. Just my opinion, and I offer it respectfully. As you have been touched by this case, besides my association with the guys at Cast Iron I find myself deeply touched and disturbed that a child died and no one in it's immediate family seems to REALLY care (the grandparents seem to, but not as much as they care for Casey, or themselves for that matter). It is an important element of a trial, how much is hard to say, that there is a family presence in the court to represent the victim. Everyone in that family had their own motives, and none of them put that child before themselves. :(

her dad raped her. who would want that hell spawn?

hilarious. you are all robot brainwashed sheep like bad actors from a salem witch trial horror b movie.

turn off the tv and internet. think for yourself. stop being mob zombies.

good for her. justice was served.

i gotta wonder if there was an element of...jury got tired of the endless trial, the loss of 2 summer holidays...the weak evidence of what actually happened...& said fuck it, lets acquit & go home. They ignored very compelling circumstancial evidence. Shit they didnt even debate it.

I'll bet a million dollars some jurors eventually regret their verdict, just like OJ. Imagine one of them has the balls to go on nancy grace. They would get creamed.

I'll tell you what I think...

Yes jury was tired and also missed 2 holidays... that being memorial day as well as 4th of july. But the kicker is Ashton, he was smug, rude, and simply quite annoying.

Why do you think a total stranger would flip him the middle finger? Because he did exactly what pisses a lot of people off...

The case was just a "theory" of what happened. We all know the girl was involved but the problem is if she said "what" actually happened it would have indicted her on negligence ultimately landing her life in bars.

So she did what she had to.

Baez really, really made the best possible comment of all time which... in my mind... led to the acquittal of Casey. That comment was...



That my friends rung true to the jury as this case has been fucked from the get go. Coupled with time stamp dates on the evidence that can easily be off... likely suggested by the IT guy on the jury.

That... in my opinion... is how it went down

shelly that was just wrong

Can you believe she is getting away with murder? and the USA gets upset about a little porn?? what is this world cumming too??

Shelly, are you Nancy Grace?

Had to bring some lolz. Shit's been too serious lately.

"Tot-Mom!"

Ms. Shelly could not ever be anything like Nancy Grace. Nancy Grace is a disgusting horrible trouble making mess.

Aww, thanks.

For the record I think Nancy Grace is a pit bull in a blonde wig.
