I confess, I have watched nearly all of the trial. I have followed it on HLN and TRU TV, I have followed it on Twitter. How does someone get so caught up in something? Sad thing to say that mother’s here in the US have murdered their children before and Nancy Grace didn’t feature them on her show almost daily for the last 3 years. Leonard Padilla an unknown bounty hunter, has become world famous (or infamous?) because of this young lady (Casey Anthony) allegedly murdering her two year old daughter, Caylee. Cindy Anthony (Casey’s mother) was proven on the stand yesterday to have committed perjury trying to take the blame for the chlorophyll google searches. Having raised two children, I know what lengths a mother will go to in an effort to protect her child.
Well, tomorrow the closing arguments will be shown live on HLN. Guess who will be watching? I, along with millions of others all around the word will be watching. What makes this trial so different? My own theory, a beautiful unwed mother living in the midst of a dysfunctional family.
My thoughts on Judge Belvin Perry. I like him immensely. He is a no nonsense judge, as different as night and day from Judge Ito who presided over the OJ Simpson trial (yes I watched that one too.) I give Judge Perry two thumbs up and Ito two thumbs down.
Actually one of the highlights of the trial was a young man who gave Attorney Jeff Ashton the bird. Thankfully the jury was not present or there would have been a mistrial declared.
That about sums it up, I think that Casey Anthony is guilty. However I am not sitting on that jury. I think that there will be a swift verdict on this case. We shall see. I shall be watching.
