Casey Anthony was found "not guilty" in a court of law, even though 67% of the American population believes she is guilty. Even the judge who ruled in the case stated he was shocked by the verdict - meaning even he believed Casey Anthony is guilty. Several of the jury members came forward and publicly stated they did not believe Casey Anthony was innocent.
Not innocent? Meaning they believed she was guilty?
There are no shades of gray in guilt or innocence ... you either did something, or you didn't.
So, with the overwhelming evidence pointing the fact that Casey Anthony is actually guilty, believed to be guilty by the majority of the American population, believed to be guilty by the judge in the case, and even several jury members believe she was "not innocent" - you still have people defending her and claiming she is innocent, and get this .... because she was not proven guilty in a court of law.
Those same people turn right around and claim these skinheads are guilty ... when there has been absolutely no trial, and no charges.
That is the contradiction - you may interpret it as me hating Casey Anthony, but it would not be a correct interpretation.
There is one difference you are overlooking here; she was tried in court, and found not guilty "beyond reasonable doubt" by a jury. That does not mean innocent; it means that the evidence presented did not convince jurors 100%. Opinions mean nothing in a courtroom. It is the votes of the jurors that matter. How they "feel" is not the same as reaching a verdict.
The skinheads have not gone to trial yet. Any comments people are making about the case are purely opinions. There is no trial yet, no jury, no attorneys presenting evidence. People are basing their opinions on articles released by the media.
I recall many Conservatives do not trust the MSM to give unbiased reports. Many Liberals do not trust FoxNews. Has that changed? Should someone be found guilty by trial through the media?
I will certainly follow this case through trial. If they are guilty, I hope they are punished to the fullest extent allowed. However, I do not make judgment on these suspects until the trial.
