the casey anthony case

[abu nuwas]

I have no idea. The weight of evidence against the mother seems strong, yet seems to me to fall short of linking her directly to this poor child's death. I think UK courts would have found a conviction unsafe. A civil case might be different, where one only has to contemplate the balance of probabilities. In any event, there was plainly masses of evidence presented to the jury, who must therefore have been in a good position to reach a conclusion.
