WHAT IF…..
Solo cups came out with a limited addition Hope Solo line?
Cheesy? Yes.
Would I still buy them? Heck yes.
Why do I have yet to own my own signature flask?
I’m not talking those plastics flasks we would buy in Virginia to sneak liqour past the gaurds during monster trucks/bull riding/hockey games. I’m talking a legit flask that is mine.
Challenge Accepted.
I figure I should post about this and feel like I put my two cents out there and not talk about this outcome again. And of course, I’m talking about the Casey Anthony Trial.
After my initial shock was gone, I began to review the case in my head. I went over all the evidence and witnesses in my head, then asked my boss a gajillion questions to make sure I was interpreting everything correctly. This is basically what I conclude:
-Do I think she was somehow guilty? yes. Maybe not 100% all her though.
-Something is def wrong with the family as a whole and the dad kind of creeps me out. And how do you serve 10 years in law enforcement and not realize theres something odd about your daughter’s behavior and you haven’t seen your granddaughter in a month?
-Jose Baez in my opinion is still a terrible attorney but happens to have the right case at the right time. He didn’t help the defense majorly at all. All his examinations of witnesses sucked.
-The state kind of hurt themselves by saying this is an all or nothing, 1st degree murder case. They knew the evidence they had(and lack there of) maybe should’ve gone for a lesser charge?
-What REALLLLLLLLY surprised me was the not guilty about child neglect charge which resulted in child manslaughtor. EVEN IF the pool story was believable, that would’ve been neglect. Although, my boss did point out that you have no proof that Casey was supposed to be watching her daughter at that moment, so who neglected her?
-Now on to this whole sentencing fiasco. Jim says she can get one year(tops!) per count of lying to law enforcement. So that would be 4 years, she’s already served 3. So she’ll probably be out soon.
-On to the Jury. Its so easy to hate and blame them but honestly, they are supposed to base their decision on straight facts and not gut feelings(which is a usual issue with a jury). When it comes down to it, there was no scientific proof to prove a cause of death. The jury did what they were supposed to do, come to a decsion based on facts and not gut feelings.
On that note, that is all I have to say about the verdict made and I must say, I wonder how awkward it’s going to be for Casey’s family when she’s out. Like “hey guyyys, sorry about all that stuff I said…umm family can make it through everything right?”
