Thoughts.

Casey Anthony was found "not guilty" today. It was a shock to most of the country to say the least. I think the majority of people felt she was guilty of not only murder, but of being a disgraceful mother. I mean who doesn't report their child missing for 31 days?! And not only that, but is seen out partyin during that time period. If Allie was missing 10 minutes I would be on the horn asking for all the help I gcould. And that's only if I let her out of my sight for that long! But anyway, whether she is guilty or not, she is going to walk out of court on Thursday with time served and be back out on the street. The jury did their job of putting their personal feelings aside and not letting the media hype get to them. And the bottom line is, the Prosecution didn't do theirs. It was their job to prove she killed her baby, and they couldn't. No one knows when or how that child died, and the prosecution only had a theory of what happened and the defense did do their job of putting reasonable doubt in the mind of the jurors. That's what it comes down too, and that's the justice system whether we like it or not. It's over now and all we can do is hope Caylee rests in peace, and if Casey did do it, she gets what is coming to her. A couple of minutes after the verdict was read, when I was sitting on the couch with my mouth hanging open, I heard Allie wake up from her nap and start babbling away in her crib. As soon as I walked in her room, she was standing up smiling so big with her hair going in about 100 different directions. I actually got tears in my eyes because all I could think was "who could ever hurt their child?!" Allie is my everything, and when I see her I beam with pride. Caylee Anthony was a gorgeous little girl and she deserved a hell of a lot better than she got. Whether her mom did kill her, or didn't, she shouldn't have been discarded like trash, and I will pray for that little girl to rest in peace. She didn't ask to be born into that clearly dysfunctional family, but maybe now Casey will provide some answers because at this point, if she does confess, the state can't charge her again...
