Casey Anthony was just found not guilty of serious crimes related to the death of her young child. The physical evidence linking Anthony’s involvement in the disappearance of her daughter was dubious, but many “felt” that she was responsible. Ultimately, Anthony was found guilty of lesser charges of lying to law enforcement.
As the live video feed displayed Anthony crying and then smiling after the verdict, many were felt unsettled. The facts point towards Anthony. Her actions and behavior made many feel that she is guilty.
I’m concerned about this case, but not because of the facts. I’m concerned about what is happening around Casey Anthony’s court room saga.
The hype around this case is disgusting. The speculation, coverage, and conjecture are indicative of what kind of culture we have become. Some have even compared the coverage to OJ’s trial in the 90′s. Remember how the OJ trial dominated the news?
