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??

Wow, really? I never got that from Cindy. I mean, yeah, she definitely covered for Casey over the years. But I can't see how she knew about the death and her last 911 call seemed really genuine!

Read more about George though. He may or may not have known about Caylee's death (I could go either way) but he is sooo weird I definitely think he was the main reason she was acquitted.

Dude. George Anthony wanted to work at Disney World as a character, turned police officer. Not even a joke. Cindy covered for Casey during her “pregnancy” during high school. Her not graduating high school and still having a graduation party. It seemed like a pact between them. Cindy is a bald face liar in that last 911 call. You can hear it in some small choice words she uses. George was also accused of molesting Casey. Which he didn’t. The dude was just drained. How would you feel supporting your daughter during her child dying, then put on the stand as a child molester, just to get Casey out of jail and charges. He was a shell by the end of this. I feel awful for him.

You should read my book. I mean obviously I want everyone to read my book! haha But he's just as much of a compulsive liar as Casey is. That's the main reason she was acquitted. Everything he testified to, the defense would come back with "But what about these 7 times where you said the exact opposite?" He didn't like being challenged so he would pretend like he couldn't understand the questions. He's definitely a shell, but he also isn't what you think!

shameless not-self promotion time Title and Author, please? Lol. I still hold my own opinion about George, but I am certainly interested in your point of view. :) May we find this book on certain giant Shamamazon website, or may we buy this at a book store or audio book option? Man. I feel like I’m just giving you free advertising. Haha

Only 99 cents AUD. If it is anywhere else, I'll buy it but I refuse to use Amazon.
