This Casey Anthony trial has turned into the OJ trial of the current generation. The main difference is technology. This trial will be Tweeted, Facebooked, and Blogged pretty frequently as we get closer and closer to a verdict, tools that weren't available during the OJ trial. If you Googled "Casey Anthony Trial" you would get more hits than "OJ Simpson Trial."
A few years back I bitched about this same issue under the title of Who Forgot The Missing Tot? which was aimed mostly at the horrible decisions Casey Anthony's parents were making during the time the investigation was going on looking for their Granddaughter.
I still don't understand why I have been following this story/trial so closely. Probably because I am curious to know the extend America's justice system will entertain the accusations of one individual. I am curious to know how much of Florda's tax payer money has to be spent to verify what in the world could have happened to Caylee.
Maybe it is because there are a shit-load of Casey Athony's out there: Women who become Mothers at a time when they are still trying to discover who they really are. Casey was obviously a person who enjoyed the night life and the clubbing lifestyle. Casey found out the hard way, and a little too late, that Motherhood and Clubbing don't mix. I bet the number of Grandmothers watching their Grandchildren while Mommy is "out" for the evening has gone up in recent years.
Looking at how things are going so far, it does not look good for Casey. The story of Caylee drowning in the Grandparent's pool and the history of sexual abuse that George (the Grandpa) may or may not have subjecte Casey to seems like a calculated excuse to explain how nonchalant she was during the month Caylee was "missing." You would need serious excuse to explain that behaivior. If anything, she acted like she was very happy to be free of Motherhood. Bottom line: Casey did not mention the word "missing" when describing her daughter's whereabouts until she was cornered by her family. The Nanny that "kidnapped" her came up clean and didn't even know who the fuck Casey Anthony was.
Something really fucked up happened and it seems like the only person that is lying is Casey Anthony. I couldn't care less about whether or not she gets the death penalty, I just want this to be a short trial so Florida's tax payer money can go towards more essential purposes. It's bad enough a whole family has been destroyed due to the selfishness of one individual.
On a related note, Nancy Grace need another hairstyle. It looks like she is wearing a blonde helmet.
