I seriously hate these "celebrated cases" as we call them in my criminal justice class. Just becomes a media circus. Plenty of people are killed every year in the US, often including little kids. Why is the media suddenly making a huge thing out of this particular case? I haven't watched a single second of the trial and I plan on keeping it that way simply because these asshats have turned it in to another program to pull in ratings.

The parents are whacko but the daughter is a murderer who deserves to die for killing her child.

I haven't watched a single second of the trial either but all the talk shows and news broadcasts are constantly giving updating on it. Drives me crazy.

Damn straight, when any child is murdered, i give a damn. Tell ya what i am a Mother, and if my child were missing, i would not be acting in the manner that CASEY is, i would be hysterical, crazzy crying, doing everything i could to find my child. Would not be partying, an getting tatto's claiming to be living the good life. And i would not have waited 31 days, that is all i will say. I get tired of the sensationalism of this case, but i want to see justice happen for the child innocent child who was murdered, or excuse me accident the defense claims. Any way you look at it, i want justice for this child, who was innocent, and taken way to early way before her time.

I agree jewel, but that doesn't mean I want it dominating the news cycles.

No I really do not care. I personally do not see why it's news.

Sadly their are many cases of parents who kill their children.(Yes I do believe she killed her.)
Most of these cases get the dishonorable 5 minute facetime.
This Murderer tells a ****load of lies from the start.. And she gets her face blasted on every news station, and people line up to and fight everyday for a spot to see this lady in court?
Fox covered the testimony almost nonstop today...

No child should get murdered but sadly for emotional, psychological or whatever reasons some people murder their children. This case is no different.
Bring these people to justice, it does not need to be on TV, or on Frontpage news everyday..

I don't watch TV and without Googling it: who is this?
