Well, justice wasn’t served after all. The jury had reasonable doubt, despite the mounds of circumstantial evidence and motive the prosecution brought out.
Casey lied about having a job and a nanny for two years. As soon as Caylee became old enough to talk, Casey looked up "how to make chloroform" and "neck-breaking" on her computer. When Casey decided to kill Caylee, Casey gave Caylee chloroform, put three pieces of duct tape on her nose and mouth, wrapped her in the Winnie-the-Pooh blanket, put her in a trash bag, and then put her in the trunk of her car. Then, Casey went to Blockbuster with Tony, her boyfriend. When the car began to smell, Casey backed it into her garage, put Caylee into a laundry bag, borrowed a shovel from her neighbor, laid Caylee on the ground where she contemplated burying her, decided against it, and threw her into the swamp. Casey then changed her MySpace password to Timer55, knowing that was how long she could keep up the lies to her mother as to Caylee's whereabouts -- in 55 days, Caylee would have turned 3. Casey then partied and lived with her boyfriend, all the while lying to everyone on earth about where she and Caylee were. Casey, as Linda Drane Burdick said, was the only person who had a better life with Caylee gone. Casey had access to everything associated with Caylee's death: the duct tape, the blanket, the laundry bag, the clothes and the car.
Did the jury make the correct decision? I think not. Well, maybe some justice will occur and Casey will get her tubes tied.
