Two points: the jurors didn't see many things in the courtroom that we did. They didn't see the media we did (supposedly).
The jury saw and heard all they needed to come to a 'beyond reasonable doubt' guilty verdict. The media need not, should not, and did not, play a role in their decision.

How many of you people believe Casey Anthony should receive monetary retribution from the state of Florida for time spent in jail being accused of murder?
As disappointed as I am regarding the out come of this trial, you are absolutely correct.
The jury made the wrong decision...but it was based on the right reasons.
We have to respect it and move on.
Casey is a psycho. It won't be long before she thinks she's infallible again.
Reminds me of one legal experts quote after the OJ trail: "I have to accept the verdict, but I don't have to respect the jury that rendered it..."
I will say it once again - the jury pool of available jurists required for a sequestered trail will be, by nature, inadequate for this type of complex circumstantial evidence-based trial. They will be less intellegent, less varied, less adaptable, less developed skills in inference and logic, less able to put 2 and 2 together then the pool of citizens available from a non-sequestered jury pool. And that presents a flaw in the justice system.
For over a month, no one saw Caylee and no one knew she was missing except her mother.
Her mother lied about where Caylee was.
Caylee's remains are found and we knew she was dead.
Her remains were found in plastic bags, in a swamp, with duct tape around her mouth.
So, what do we know at that point...Caylee was dead and she didn't put herself in a plastic bag and throw herself into a swamp!
Do we know 100% that her mother killed her? No. Do we have SOME doubt? No. REASONABLE doubt? No.
She is dead. Her mother doesn't care. Her mother is out partying. Her mother saw her last.
WHERE is the reasonable doubt???

Only in the minds of a 'collectively' inadequate jury!
