Chaos In Florida

By now, you all have probably heard all about the verdict in the trial of Casey Anthony and the subsequent outrage from many who thought she was guilty of murdering her child. I myself thought she was guilty and I hadn't really followed the trial until Sunday when the defense gave its closing argument.

Based on what they said in that one moment (which basically was that the state didn't really provide good evidence that proved its case) I knew the jury would find her not guilty. Well, that happened and now people are outraged and now it's my turn to say something...GET OVER IT!

I hate to be like that because I hate like crazy that her daughter left this world so tragically. That really has nothing to do with my feelings here. What has made me mad is how people are blaming the jury and saying they are guilty of murder. Hello! The jury did exactly what they were supposed to do which, believe it or not, is to decide the fate of the accused based on the evidence given.

One person that really seems to not understand this is Nancy Grace, host on HLN. Although she is very familiar with our justice system, she still is going on rant after rant about the verdict and has continuously criticized the jury on their handling of the case. My message to her as well is to grow up and get over it! In case you haven't figured it out yet, the jury did exactly what they were suppose to. And when one juror called out Grace on her tirade, she immediately struck back with the same ignorance shown in her other rants.

Casey Anthony may or may not have murdered her daughter, we will probably never know. But I'm tired of people, including Nancy Grace, bashing the jury. They have a tough job as it is and they did the best they could under the circumstances. And my final word is this: Casey may have been acquitted but she will ultimately have to answer to the judge and jury of God one day whether she did it or not.
