I'm just upset that I didn't think to have the masks made, and sell them. I'da been Rich.
You coulda done like the Michael Myers mask (a white spray painted william shatner mask) and gotten a generic female face mask, applied some whorish makeup (think Homer Simpson's make-up shotgun) and made a schlocky B-move, Where's My Kid: The Casey Anthony Story. There'd be your millions!
Don't hold your breath....I'm sure some soulless reaver is working on it as we speak.

But out of curiosity - why? When we see these media spectacles, it's very hard to not form an opinion. That, plus we have all heard of innocent folks being locked up and guilty folks walking.... it happens, so what makes it so wrong to question a verdict?
Sincere question, no sarcasm or snarkiness intended.
Sorry to take so long to get around to answering. Rehearsal last night.........
I think it's wrong because we don't have all the information that the jury does and what information we have has been adulterated by the media. The jury not only has more information but they have first-hand experience with the people involved and can judge their credibility where we can't.
I just don't think someone who hasn't been in the courtroom and heard all the testimony first-hand and had a chance to size up the witnesses is in any position to monday morning quarterback.
My comment about it being sad was really pointed at the fact that so many people are willing to take up an opinion, or believe something to be true, just because they heard it on the T.V.
Thanks for taking the time to explain. I get that, I really do and I fully agree that any opinion where not all of the facts are known is trumped by the opinions of those better informed.
No argument from me there
Let's completely leave the media out of this for a moment, because they really aren't in the news business they are in the entertainment/shock and outrage business.
In this instance my point is not at all that I somehow know better, it's rather that based on what I do know, and based upon what this one juror - someone who DOES know better than me - was saying about feeling that "she WAS guilty but not having enough to prove it beyond the shadow of a doubt" leaves me to question the verdict.
We have all heard of folks wrongly convicted, and we've all heard of the guilty going free - the legal system is not perfect. It works, but it's not 100%, absolutely, positively and unquestionably right every time. With that in mind, I think it may have been the case here where the guilty walked.
Okay I see what you're saying and agree you're not second guessing the jury.
If the jurors felt she was guilty but acquitted her anyway because the evidence didn't prove her guilt beyond a reasonable doubt then the they did what they were supposed to do and should be applauded for it.
I read in the news that she is getting a half mil offer by Mr Flint to be in his magazine and another mil by some other mag to hook up to a lie detector. The offers are starting to pour in!She will be rich in no time.
