Which is irrelevant, as the evidence STILL needs to tie the defendant to the crime, and the evidence presented did NOT do so.

The jurors didn't expect any of that in this case.

Just concrete evidence that linked the defendant to the crime.

Which there was none.

If we use "common sense" to convict people, America will be MUCH worse off.

Neglect at most. But, if I'm correct, the jury can only rule on the charges that were pressed. And neglect was not one of them.

DISGUSTING!
Oh, she will! And partying hard! As Casey's tattoo she got during the 31 days she failed to report missing Caylee says "Bella Viva" (beautiful life)...

Party on Casey - you murdered your baby and are now free as a bird with great wealth on your doorstep thanks to an ignorant jury.

yup, I guess your right Jareb, another murderer walks the streets and once again hedonism and cultural degradation trumps decency and commmon sense and the culture sinks one more increment of depth into cultural decadence. Don't like your child suffocate him and get a book deal. Don't like your neighbor, invite him in, kill him and get a book deal. We are now living in a society in which evil triumphs and with all disrespect, it triumphs because of people like many that we know, walk and talk with daily. Most of them are demorats It is the same mindset, gutter socialization, pseudo intellectualism, cultual depredation. I carry a gun in my purse and there is a reason i do!

You say "ignorant jury", the law says "Jury that did their job".

I'd rather have a jury that actually does their job than a jury that rules on "common sense" and emotion.

It's a toss up whether they even understand the rule of law.

Why the fixation on this child? Why the fixation on this child's mother? What makes them different? Luck of the draw? Bad chit happens to children everyday in this country.

We could have said the same thing about Elizabeth Smart, Natilie Hollaway, etc., etc.,

The media chooses a kid to focus upon and that's that. The public follows. Ironic that the media usually chooses the White kids. Yeah, yah, I know. But it is the truth.
The term for it is "Missing White Woman (or Girl) Syndrome.

She wasn't missing, her "mother" knew exactly where she was, a hole in the backyard at first and thown in the woods like trash afterward.
