does casey anthony being not guilty mean the us court stystem is working?

Does casey anthony being not guilty mean the court system is working? They had no evidence on her. So in the real world they had nothing to prove she was guilty. For her to be guilty that would be like an innocent person being guilty. I think it means the court system is working.

i have alot of probs with our court system all i'm going to say it failed this time, don't care if she was found innocent by her peers or got a fair trial. Doesn't matter either way, she's going to do interviews and write a book and make that money. While we will never know who really killed that little girl

Nope. Just shows how corrupt it is. Kinda similar to Gotham City's court system (BM: Begins)

It worked because the jurors made their decision based on the evidence being presented to them instead of making it based on emotion or what the media was telling them to do. They were sequestered during the trial so they didn't get to hear Nancy Grace's daily opinion on "Casey the Tot Mom." Unfortunately, people who felt the media was a more accurate version of the events automatically decided the jurors were idiots and compared them to the OJ jury. In reality, while some of the jurors probably believed Casey might have killed Caylee there wasn't enough evidence for them to convict. In their eyes (as well as most other people who aren't condemning them) it's better to let a guilty person free than to put an innocent person on death row.

You can blame the media sensationalism, not the US justice system for allowing her to do so.

If anything, this shows the United States that the justice system isn't a democracy but a fair and just enviroment where the law takes a valuable place in court, not the majority begging for blood, despite some flaws.

But no, everyone wants blood, everyone thinks everything should be a democracy. The media paints a menacing picture and people just buy into that crap. Makes me sick because this kind of stuff leads to what you just stated earlier.

Agree with this.

At first I thought she was guilty for sure, but as time passed on, and the trial moved forward, I started believeing she was not guilty. No evidence=no jail.

Hey Aquat...off topic... did you know that the woman in your sig is resting her head on the heel of a foot with a bulbous ankle? Will you forever see that this woman is now resting her head on some strangers foot? I thought I would mention this because I've been seeing your sig around. :D

There are a lot of guilty people who slip through the cracks and a lot of innocent people who get put in jail. Just because there wasn't hard evidence doesn't mean she's not guilty, it just means they couldn't 100% prove it on paper. The court system is flawed.

Also, WTF are you even saying?! The trial took time out of HER life so she DESERVES to make millions of dollars off of movie and book deals? Are you serious? If Caylee hadn't died and had been kidnapped instead, not reporting her missing for a MONTH would have gotten her slapped with something, some sort of child neglect charge at very least.

This trial is not an inconvenience to her. Whether she's guilty of murder or not, she went to trial for a reason. She isn't innocent, she never was. I can't even believe you think a woman who IGNORED the fact that her child was GONE for a MONTH and didn't report it to police is innocent in any way or deserves to cash in on something so horrifying. She's a sickening person, whether or not Caylee died at her hands intentionally or by accident.

...and yet innocent people still get sent to prison. Like i said i have alot of probs with our justice system, but oh well. Chris_Williams

In a situation like hers I doubt the jury wanted to feel guilty over giving her the needle and then a year or so after her execution some new evidence came out showing her innocence or or something similar. The system isn't perfect but it's made so an attempt to give people a fair trial can be made even if the result is a possible guilty person getting off or in an even worse situation an innocent person is sent to jail.

Unfortunately, it seems like the media is undermining that. One example is if something happens a few years from now involving Casey that gets her arrested it's almost guaranteed she's going to be found guilty of what she is being tried of no matter what by a biased jury who wants to "get her back" for her recent acquittal. This is assuming some vigilante doesn't harm her first.

I really hope that one day we figure out what really happened, and why Casey acted the way she did after her daughter went missing assuming she really didn't kill her. blurguy6

All I know is that unless Casey gets some surgery, changes her hair, and changes her name so she isn't recognizable she's going to have some serious problems. Last week a convience store clerk who looks like Casey Anthony was attacked by a woman who mistook her for Casey.

It is the law, she is innocent until proven guilty. She is not guilty.ehhwhatever

Thats a pretty big shock not being sure if your life was gonna be behind bars forever for something you wasnt guilty of.. Yeah I think she deserves the millions she will make.

when the verdict came in she looke pretty sad.ehhwhatever

That may be the law, but I think we all know the woman is not innocent. But because it can't be proven on paper, she's considered "innocent". We all know she's not.XilePrincess

No we do not know that. Neither do you. You may think she is guilty, you may have even convienced yourself that absolutely she is guilty, but you do not know.

And yes, the US court system worked exactly as it is intended to in this case.

WTF she doesn't look like Casey but considering it seems the woman was on drugs... Kinda funny that she has a daughter name Caylee through, but yeah it going to be really rough for Casey for now.

It's not that simple. This time it worked in the ideal sense. It doesn't mean the entire system works as it's intended. The people factor is significant.

This is better example.
