Mike's Mail Bag: Casey Anthony trial

The courtroom drama may be over, but the social media trial isn't.

Jurors started deliberating Sunday and delivered a not guilty verdict at about 1:15 p.m. Tuesday. By 1:16, Facebook and Twitter were flooded with Anthony comments, a large majority seemed to disagree with the verdict.

If Anthony were to be tried again through social media, do you think we would see a different outcome?

In comparison, what do you think about the courtroom's verdict?

Did we not just celebrate the independence of this great country where a person is innocent until PROVEN guilty. The jury did their job. If she is guilty, then the procecution failed miserably at theirs.
There was no definitive evidence to convict Casey of murder.

Let us not forget, we've only seen what the news agencies thought would sell air time. So, is she not guilty, or did the prosecution fail to prove her guilt? And remember, she must still face the cover up charges.

Everyday America dies a little more, and for those legal begals who want to claim that this verdict is proof that guilt must be prooved by the state beyond a reasonable doubt then I say to you that her many lies were all the proof any reasonable person needed. Americans have been so stripped of responsibility that when asked to make a judgement call they are unable for fear of making a mistake.
