For those who believe the system worked for Casey Anthony, did you believe it worked for OJ as well when...?

Question

... OJ was found "Not Guilty" during his first trial about his wife's death. At that moment, did you believe that the system worked?

Maybe you did, but I suspect that many people who believe that the system worked in Casey's situation, and/or believes that she is Innocent, didn't feel the same about OJ when they first heard the verdict.

(I know this question will be hated, but I find this very interesting)

(Also, there are a lot of people in jail serving life for crimes they didn't do. the fact that this happens, is evidence that the system doesn't work as well as many people claim. And then you have people who get off scott-free. The system has it's flaws, but people tolerate it because it's the best thing we have, in my opinion. But it annoys me when people worship it like it's perfect.)

Answer 1

Bob Dylan's lyrics say it all.



Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land

Where justice is a game.



Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties

Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise

Answer 2

To answer simply with OJ the circumstance and forensic evidence showed he was guilty. Yet he was found not guilty of murder. That to me is a system failure.

As for Casey, circumstantial evidence is against her, but without a doubt, the forensic evidence was very inconclusive; and none of it proves she committed murder. Since guilty should be based only on positive proof, which isn't there, not guilty is correct. The system worked. Obviously the system doesn't always work. But when it does it is a beautiful thing no other country has.

Answer 3

I think it's more dangerous for Casey Anthony to be out in public. There are a lot of haters out there. It is safer for her to be in prison.



@by s s,



George Anthony is a retired police officer who has worked on homocide cases. Of course he knows that a drowning is an accident and not a crime. So why would he place a body in a bag and bury in the woods? Why make an accident look like a murder? George is a lot smarter than that, The smartest thing to do was to call 911 immediately and George would have known to do that. But Casey is another story. She shocked the country when it was discovered that she waited 31 days to report her daughter missing. Her parents knew nothing of what really happened to Caylee.

Answer 4

I believe both those outcomes were failures of the justice system. I'm still more inclined to believe OJ than I am to believe Casey Anthony. At least OJ had the decency to pretend to care. But I digress. The justice system is far from perfect,but what are the alternatives? Anarchy sounds pretty good to me right now.

Answer 5

I fail to see any dichotomy between CA and OJ both could be Innocent, both could be guilty or half and half



nobody here knows the relative positions I don't know and you don't know, that either are guilty or innocent

Answer 6

Who knows? I don't think it is perfect, but I think it is the best we've got. I often have my doubts, like the case recently of a man whose baby daughter died. They can't find the cause of death but they did find internet searches on how to kill a baby. He got off.

It's why I don't believe in the death penalty. Not only should we be a civilised society and not kill anyone, but also because there is always, always doubt.

Answer 7

Of all the worthy people in the world, why you continue to write questions about that freak show is beyond my imagination! Where she's not derivative she's boring, where she's not boring she's obvious! where where she's not obvious SHE'S DANGEROUS!

Answer 8

OJ was not guilty because he WAS INDEED NOT GUILTY.

Answer 9

(OJ was guilty IMO. He was even found guilty in civil court.)



People don't care about the evidence, they just want to bash Casey. Why don't they look up Dr. Vass, the one who claims there was a shocking amount of chloroform present. He also dabbles with divining rods, ok? DIVINING RODS. This trial was a joke and people are media-brainwashed, pitchfork-toting sheep.



Nancy Grace stirs the THUGS up emotionally with the precious baby girl and devil is dancing stuff. They are also clueless about reasonable doubt. I don't mind if someone thinks Casey is guilty, I DO mind when people say they hope she is killed on the street, or that the jury should be killed. The verdict was just.



Proof media lies/misleads: CAYLEE WAS NEVER FOUND WITH DUCT TAPE STUCK TO HER NOSE AND MOUTH.



Mouth was rotted and bones chewed by animals, so how can they say tape was on mouth? But I covered my dog's face with cloth and tape before I buried her. It is almost universal, people want to cover or close eyes and mouth before burial, not throw dirt in open eyes, etc, Maybe Caylee had mouth open, with death gasses coming out, flies crawling in it, fluid leaking, so they cover with cloth then tape, maybe just tape. THEY FOUND 3 Pieces of tape, one for mouth area, two for eyes? You don't want to kiss child goodbye without closing mouth and eyes by mortician wax, insecticide, and thread, or at least tape or cloth in a panic. I think the body was gonna get moved again to some final resting place, or possibly "cremated".



Expert witnesses said tape was likely applied after death. There was a piece of tape stuck to her hair and side of skull. Expert says tape was probably simply holding jaw bone to skull. Also, tape sticky enough to stick to matted hair, but no DNA on tape leads one to believe tape might not ever have been on skin. Tape could have come from the bag. Three small pieces of tape cannot be murder weapon by themselves, you would need to tie arms back too, do something else. And there was no heart sticker found on Caylee, that's a fact. But so what if there was?



Dad probably told Casey he would bury child, because she could go to jail for drowning accident, police will call it murder. Casey went along with Dad's plan, did not report death. Accidental drowning MUCH more common than someone killing child in order to have more sex. ACCIDENTAL DROWNING NUMBER 2 KILLER OF KIDS UNDER 5. Casey might have drowned in grandad's pool, he didn't want to lose his house and insurance. Perhaps Grandad had bad fence around pool, or negligent in some other way? Casey could then sue her parents for negligence. Maybe Casey was negligent in some way. You want evidence of drowning, like finding water in lungs? Sorry, you can't have that. The body was rotted.



Waiting 31 days to say child was missing, well because she was dead. Maybe someone was negligent about the drowning because they had drugs in their system, and that's why they waited a month to clean system? Now I don't know this happened AT ALL. But people don't report car accidents, taxes, injuries all the time. People make Bad decisions. There are reasons why someone would cover up accidental death.



Prosecution COULD NOT EVEN PROVE A MURDER TOOK PLACE, COULD NOT RULE OUT ACCIDENTAL DROWNING. Jury was right to come back with not guilty verdict.



Casey's support system is young and socializing, not in her room alone with her. That is why she goes out. Regarding the tattoo, lots of people in this country drink and get memorial tattoos shortly after a loved one dies. "Bella Vita" could be a tribute to her daughter. She certainly couldn't get RIP Caylee at that time. Couldn't wear an ever-popular memorial t shirt. Couldn't put a memorial sticker on her car.



I google bank heists, bullet-proof shirts, ice bullets, and poison pens. I just googled chloroform. Googling is not a crime. Maybe Casey googled chloroform cuz she thought she was poisoned herself, maybe she saw it on CSI and wanted to look it up. Doesn't make her a murderer. Do they count reading several search results for the term as googling it several times? Or refreshing page? Or favoriting? Or emailing to oneself?



The reports of a "no regrets" diary entry confessing to a murder are just not true. Look for the YEAR the diary entries were written. The chloroform stuff was insignificant traces that proved nothing. YOU probably have chloroform in your house right now.



Bottom line, NO PROOF A MURDER OCCURRED, NO PROOF CASEY DID IT. NOT GUILTY. Disagree with my theories and opinions about what happened and there is still not enough evidence. Before you sentence someone to death, the dots MUST to be clear and close enough on their own for you to see the picture before you connect them.
