Another question. If most people are idiots and an idiot would acquit her, why does like 99% of the country think she have been convicted?

It is fair to say that juries have unrealistic expectations for evidence. But, in my opinion, that isn't such a bad thing. I'll take this over juries that rubber-stamp guilty verdicts. In the case of Casey Anthony, a reasonable person would conclude she did, in fact, murder her child. But I think that same reasonable person would demand more than circumstantial evidence about bad smells and duct tape when trying someone for murder.

Torres didnt see the trial. He wasnt even aware of the verdict til the writer told him. Pirro is a tv personality and if you've ever watched her show you'd know she's not to be taken seriously. Shargel said he can't make sense ofit "from a distance". Fortunately, we don't administer justice from a distance in this country.
