I remember when her verdict was announced. I was in Gainsville with my son who was a recent graduate of Levin School of Law. He told me she was almost certainly guilty but she would not be convicted. He was right. But why was he right? That question has remained in my mind for all these years as I would have guessed that she was guilty and would be convicted.
I read this book hoping I might get an answer to that question but I didn't. Was it the jury? Was it the circumstantial case? Was it the Prosecution? Was it the Defense? Was it Colonel Mustard with the candlestick in the dining room? What happened that a conviction was not secured?
I don't know. The Defense was bombastic and not sticklers for protocol, the Prosecution was on an intellectual and proud high horse, the defendant was cool as a cucumber and didn't look like whatever guilty looks like, and little Caylee was found too late for her body to reveal much about what had happened. Still, I thought for sure the jury would convict her of something besides lying to the police. All the circumstantial evidence was very incriminating. Although the prosecution of Casey did not result in conviction I am sure that ultimately there will be justice. With every effort made to secure truth and justice we now have to let it go and let God and nature take their course to re-balance things.
