I saw that and my jaw dropped. I'm not familiar with all of the details of the case, but I thought she'd be heading to death row for sure. Her story was beyond what a normal person could believe. But the prosecution's case seemed to be really circumstantial. |

Neither did I, and I'm glad I didn't. |

With out a definitive cause of death it leaves open too much speculation. Her young daughter could have died from any number of causes. Casey(or someone else) could of murdered her, it might have been manslaughter, it might have been an accident, it could have been neglect, it could have been natural causes. Her erratic behaviour, or whether she was a partying '*beep*', proves none of these. The burden of evidence is on the prosecution, I would not feel comfortable sending this woman to jail when so many questions remain unanswered. You can't sentence on pure opinion, the jury needed facts. |

Clearly OJ did it.
As an aside, one of the things I like about Korea is that I have barely been aware of this case. I'm free from the 24 hour news cycle. Cheers to not having to listen to Nancy Grace or Greta Van Cyborg rant and rave about these things. |

Agreed. Had a friend get all over me for not hearing about it from back home. I told them it was small potatoes. |

Edit: I just looked this up on Wikipedia and now I do vaguely remember something about this. What kind of triggered my memory is that the child was m missing for at least a month and she hadn't even reported her kid missing - and the kid was only 3 years old.
I don't have time to spend hours reading up on this case, but can anyone tell me what her explanation was for the disappearance at least of her child and why she didn't report the kid missing? |

guy in incheon got only 8 years for killing his daughter,
his daughter told her father to get a job and make money
he got insulted so he struggled her to death.

She initially said that a nanny had the kid. After the grandmother pushed harder, it was discovered there was no nanny. |

I am sure you thought that, considering what the likes of fat ass Nancy Grace and her ilk have remarked.
The jury had no choice but to acquit.
That doesn't mean they thought she was innocent.
Nor does it mean our system needs fixing. |

From what I've gleaned about this case, it suffered from a "Bloody Glove" moment.
Basically, they couldn't nail down a cause of death. If you can't do that, it's pretty hard to convict people under the concept of reasonable doubt.
OJ too, you can't say "Hey this is the killer's glove we're going to have the guy try it on." and then after it doesn't fit, try to throw up a bunch of excuses and hope people will convict the guy.
To a juror it's like "You said this was the killer's glove. You said it would fit. It doesn't. I can't convict". |

I don't know who Nancy Grace is. My opinions were based on the defendant's odd actions after the disappearance. |
