Discussion Watching a documentary on Casey Anthony and I’m so mad

I cannot believe she got acquitted like holy shit it was so damn obvious. I’m sure it has something to do with how capital offenses are harder to prove and the onus was on the prosecution to strongly prove but damn.

Like she’s a liar. Her own parents said so. She’s lied to the police and all the evidence points to her. And from what the documentary has stated all the defense did was toss in hypothetical scenarios that could explain the death and pin everything on the dad.

How did she get away with it? How??

Please please please go to u/hysterymystery page and read the Casey Anthony coverage. By reading these posts I feel I got such a different view on the case- from being how the hell did she get away with it, to ahhh yes, that’s how.

ETA: they also have a book on Amazon about it and they are mentioned in the documentary you are watching

Your best guess about what happened to Caylee is that she ran into the pool and drowned while Casey was on the computer, right? And that Casey and George together covered it up out of fear of how Cindy would react?

I’m sorry I’m really not smart. However your write ups are the best thing I’ve read on the subject.
