I wish they would hurry up and fry that Anthony babe so the state run media can get back to REAL NEWS!

it would be nice to find out the truth
She deserves a vigorous defense...she is still an American citizen.
However - we deserve better from news outlets that carry the story 24/7.

I have no issue with the defense doing everything it can to win, my issue is with the usual jury pool we get, basically people not quick enough to get out of jury duty.
To have trial by jury work we need people to take it seriously, and have as wide a spectrum as possible on juries, not just the unemployed, the retired, and the bored.

Maybe we need professional juries, it would be a nice job.
people who are watching that trial 24/7 think the jury will hang....

Interesting. She deserves a defense, yes. But not a multi-million trial that is paid for by taxpayers. The state (taxpayers) pays the salaries of judges, Attorneys General, staff (such as bailiffs, paralegals, secretaries, etc. On top of this the state has to pick up the entire tab for anything and everything for the defense lawyer. The "DC Sniper" case was VERY pricey for the taxpayers. And Anthony's trial is going to be the same way.
You have an questionable impression of who and what jurors are. First, a large pool of candidates are printed out and looked at by attorneys and/or paralegals. Much of the "don't wants" are culled out and then the jury list goes to the courtroom where each juror is questioned as to name, address, relationship to the defendant if any, their prejudices that might cloud or influence their decisions. Attorneys have a stated number of juror exclusions, so based on the questioning or other factor both the prosecution and defense accept or reject until all exclusions are used up and they have their 12 jurors. Jurors come from all walks of life - housewives, senior citizens, Wall St. brokers, janitors, business professionals, etc. Jurors are generally very smart and can usually see through fog.
My thoughts on the Casey Anthony matter is that the defense has no case, so he's grasping at every straw he can find to confuse and create reasonable doubt in the jurors' minds. As I understand it, defense counsel has only been practicing law for a short period of time and this is his first serious criminal case. If I were on that jury I would find guilty - based on evidence and the behavior of Anthony ... and a pretty good helping of being pissed at the defense lawyer's bull shit. I'm already pissed at him and I'm just watching TV - how many days has this circus been going on now - 34 or 35?
One thing I will say - that Judge is awesome. He's definitely been on top of things with no trace of prejudice for either side.

You must be a disciple of Michael Savage, with your sentence ending with "already." By the way, a bitch is a female dog.
