<p>It is only thanks to Clarence Thomas that she can’t sue the prosecutor for willfully withholding exculpatory evidence.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Speaking for myself only, I have no hatred for Casey Anthony. I simply think she was involved in wrongdoing in her child’s death in some capacity. Nothing more. I’ll admit I have no fondness for people who lie and I don’t approve of that either. But I don’t hate her.</p>
<p>I bet there are politicians, for example, that you don’t like and don’t agree with, but that doesn’t mean you hate them or wish them ill will or want to incite riots against them, right?</p>

<p>That would have crippled their entire case.^^^</p>
<p>Cross-posted with mini apparently Beat me to it.</p>
<p>mimi…baez knew about it and in his closing arguments showed the actual searches done…so i dont think he could say the prosecutor hid it… he knew about it…but when jury out of room he did ask the judge to correct it or something to instruct the jury…the judge didnt do anything.</p>
<p>It seems that right out of the acquittal box, it is not Casey who is tryng to cash in on all this.</p>

<p>And, then there are those with a sense of “humor.”</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I mentioned earlier some people who specifically mentioned this before being called out thus implying they had credibility in the matter whereas others jumped on the “I don’t hate her” bandwagon later. You, actually, were one of those I was thinking about. Umm One WITH credibility on the issue.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Big difference between a politician you don’t agree with and someone accused of killing their child. But to follow your example… How many politicians have been shot in our history? Who shot MLK, Medger Evers, Malcolm X? LA Riots??? Rosewood, FL??? </p>
<p>WHY did they shoot them all again? Hatred that started from dislike that was supported by fellow dislikers. What happened when people spoke out against the hate or dislike? They were attacked by angry people…</p>
<p>Interesting… That sounds familiar.</p>
<p>It happens all the time…</p>
<p>07Dad, my opinion about the two links you provided in post 2027. I do not support the events in the first link. </p>
<p>The second link is not “cashing in” as you put it. These psychologists are commentators who are explaining situations using their expertise to the public who has followed this news story. Much of what they say is true about those who have certain disorders or are pathological liars. I see this as no different when some other well known person has some disease and it is in the news and then experts on that disease explain it to others. Nothing to do with “cashing in.”</p>
<p>xSlacker, yes, politicians and other famous people get shot. That is wrong, wrong, wrong. But not everyone who disagrees with a person, or thinks poorly of a person’s behavior, or has opinions about the person, would ever condone or support anyone bringing harm to that person. I don’t think those who voice negative opinions about those in the public view, are inciting violence or are a lynch mob but merely opining about them and approve or disapprove and nothing beyond that. I don’t support your notion of lumping together those who are discussing the case or disapproval of Casey Anthony with those who are pushing an agenda of harm or ill will to come to her. This just is not one and the same.</p>
<p>They are cashing in via free publicity and exposure.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that Dr.Judy has her own radio show. This kind of publicity has the effect of putting her show in the limelight and can generate advertising revenues for her.</p>
<p>So no, she isn’t doing this for free.</p>
<p>Also, as an addendum I have yet to see anybody in this thread admit that their “opinion” of the verdict was wrong.</p>
<p>All I have seen is lots of rationalizations, justifications, excuses, and outright evasions.</p>
<p>The “She was found not guilty” BUT…blah blah blah will quite simply not fly.</p>
<p>soozievt–</p>
<p>ABC, ABC-- interwiewing 3 “experts,” all of whom say they cannot diagnose someone they’ve never treated, to get statements to create a story to “punch up” with “Dr. Judy Doubts—”</p>
<p>I’m old enough to remember when ABC did not try to create news, just report it.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>How exactly do you think lynch mobs and riots start?</p>
<p>“These gatherings usually start out as manageable, well-behaved, fun events, celebrations, or parties. They can be viewed as rites of passage or just people blowing off a little harmless steam.” [When</a> Crowds Turn Into Violent Mobs - Campus Command Post - Campus Safety Magazine](<a href=“http://www.campussafetymagazine.com/Blog/Campus-Command-Post/Story/2011/07/When-Crowds-Turn-Into-Violent-Mobs.aspx]When”>http://www.campussafetymagazine.com/Blog/Campus-Command-Post/Story/2011/07/When-Crowds-Turn-Into-Violent-Mobs.aspx)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Actually… I stated those that were railing against Casey. Not those that disapprove with the verdict.</p>
<p>The problem is that much of the rhetoric here has been from ridiculously angry people. There really is no justification for such anger. No on here is related to Casey…</p>
<p>No… It starts with one angry person, most likely a mother as evidenced by the demonstrations that took place in Florida. Then another joins, then more people join all “discussing” and while you may have a few in there actually discussing it MOST are venting irrational anger that shouldn’t exist in the first place.</p>
<p>That anger is called hatred… Anger doesn’t cause people to dislike intensely and it doesn’t cause people to become so intractable. Maybe temporarily but it’s been awhile. No Soozie… This is hate.</p>
<p>And note those that calmly disagree, such as yourself, and then those that get angry. The angry ones are the haters and my judgment of haters offends them. You are not offended. You merely disagree. </p>
<p>Which is the act of a calm rational person. Hatred is by definition irrational.</p>
<p>^^^Slacker, did you read the definition of hate speech? </p>
<p>People have a right to hate, love, dislike, loathe, lust after…anyone they want. They do not have a right to act upon their hatred in a way that does harm to others.</p>
<p>Your self righteous attitude is just phenomenal.</p>
<p>This is a public forum.</p>
<p>If OJ was not convicted the idea that lack of conviction=innocence is put into question. Also what about all the wrongful convictions that have been proven wrong and overturned later? It’s just another indicator but not always conclusive.</p>
<p>I went to the Nancy Grace blog on CNN. Guess what?</p>
<p>The top right banner, next to her head shot, reads: Where is Tot Mom Hiding? Urgent-Where is Tot Mom?</p>
<p>By gosh, Nancy Grace wants to know where her cash cow is, and RIGHT NOW!</p>
<p>Wouldn’t it be great if Casey stayed gone so that Nancy can show us what happens when the “evil one” does not act the way that she is “expected” to act?</p>
<p>Nancy Grace may get a raise out of this.</p>

<p>As long as the ratings are up - Casey will be the top story.</p>
<p>Please do not equate those on here with Nancy Grace. </p>
<p>I am not familiar with Dr. Judy but I have seen countless news programs where an expert in a certain medical field comments on someone in the news to provide some expert background to listeners to understand the illness, etc. Casey Anthony is a news story as her trial was followed in the media (too much so, in my view, but nonetheless, the public has seen print and media accounts). It is not odd to me to bring in legal experts or mental health experts to provide some background to go with the news story. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Your logic that those who riot or get violent toward an issue or public person start out as non-violent means that ALL who have a negative opinion about a public person or issue WILL turn violent or hateful or become a lynch mob doesn’t then follow. </p>
<p>That’s like saying that those who abuse children were often abused themselves as children (true) and that ALL who were abused as children will go onto abuse their own children (not true).</p>
<p>And for all those who are poo pooing this attention to the case and this civil discussion of the case and the outcome of the trial here on CC, why, oh why, are you reading along and participating? Why are you remotely interested then?? :rolleyes: Your opinions are welcome, but so are opinions that differ from your own.</p>
<p>To get a little back to the case:</p>
<p>I heard on a brief interview that Casey’s Fiancee thought Cindy and George were terrible parents but he also said that Casey was like dead to him now.</p>
<p>Did he give an opinion on whether Casey was involved or could have been involved.</p>
