Who the (Second Stage Freudian insult omitted) said it meant nothing to me?
A year or 2 ago there was a killing right near me where the girl's parents cut her head open and stuffed it with gauze while she was alive, and busted up her ribs. She eventually died from an infection caused by the broken ribs.
You don't know about it because national media didn't bother running with the case for the entire length of it.
Would you like me to show you pics of the girl so that maybe it grabs your emotions somehow?
If Caylee Anthony means something to you, why don't you stop attacking those who feel she received no justice and support the thing that would bring justice to your neighborhood--jury improvement.
When the law was written, dioxyribonucleic acid was unknown to humankind and until 1987, was not used to solve cases in the United States. Now that every single detective and cop show on television dwells on it, simple people think it has always been around and is the ONLY thing that assures justice being done.
That is far from the truth, and this jury of followers were easily led down a merry path of confusion thrown out by the defense to obfuscate Casey's lies, refusal to own up to her crime by lawyering up and laying low during the trial as her lawyer advised.
The tape was the murder weapon, but the lies Casey told the police caused them not to find the body until all that was left were skeletal remains, loosely connected by duct tape washed clean of evidence by the time lapse caused by the likely murderer's lies.
It's clear the jury membership was devoid of anyone who might attain even a midpoint score on Kohlberg's moral measurement. Only a lawyer would have the tools to determine that, and this particular lawyer exploited the system in order to attain his desired target audience of believers in of course, himself.
This case will fall into the cracks in a few weeks, you may rest assured, but I hope the "talking heads" will start looking into jury tampering before the fact by use of technology to determine the fruition of moral spinelessness in selecting juries through lowball assessment that throws truth into the toilet while tolerating abdication of proper responsibility by blaming a defense team that was flawless in the execution of their duties. The only problem was, they had no idea how exploitative their opponent was of simple people, selected to obey his subliminal verbal messages to them.
