look her up

[stephanbakir]

Chances are, if I haven't heard of her, she doesn't directly effect me and getting worked up over it won't help me in the least.

Agreed. I haven't either - but I assume it had something to do with what another member alluded to who was also from Florida in the "I'm bored.." thread, where they said they love how you can't have big snakes in Florida but you can get away with murdering your child. Us Canucks don't always get this kinda stuff on our news, at least not immediately. I'm going to look it up, sec...

"A sensational Florida murder trial reached a dramatic conclusion Tuesday, when the jury delivered a verdict experts and onlookers were surprised to learn could see Casey Anthony set free within days.

After weeks of hearing testimony, arguments and analysis, the Orlando, Fla. jury cleared Anthony of murdering her daughter, Caylee. She was also found not guilty of aggravated child abuse or aggravated manslaughter of a child.

Many in the crowd of about 500 people outside the courthouse reacted with anger after the verdict was read, chanting, "Justice for Caylee!" One man yelled, "Baby killer!"

Anthony still faces sentencing on Thursday for four counts of lying to investigators while they were looking into her daughter's disappearance. But because she has already spent three years in custody, experts say she could be allowed to go free.

The nationally-televised trial, which has played out in American tabloids since May, has prompted vehement reaction from spectators and celebrities alike.".....CTV Edmonton - Cleared of murder, Anthony awaits sentence for lying - CTV News (http://edmonton.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20110706/casey-anthony-folo-110706/20110706/?hub=EdmontonHome)

So, it WAS in our news, but like you Stephan, this is the first I have heard of the case. Guess I should start buying the paper or watching the news more often to keep me informed. News is depressing though, I'd much rather play with my snakes :p

It bothers me for sure! It's terrible, disgusting, surprising and an utter outrage. Neither of us said how we feel about it, just stated our ignorance to the story. I can understand your anger, but please don't misdirect it.

Honestly though it was horrible she did not report the death or that her daughter was missing they just couldn't prove without a doubt she was responsible for the death its sad ther Arnt any laws to punish her for that ther are petitions to the president and senate and governors to get such a law in place you can find them at
