Summary Of The Casey Anthony Case

Per to detectives, crime-scene evidence included residue of a heart-shaped sticker found on duct-tape over Caylee’s mouth. Unfortunately, investigators could not capture the photograph. A blanket was found at the crime scene that matched Caylee’s bedding at her grand-parents’ home. Another part of evidence was photos from Anthony’s ex-boyfriend portraying a poster with the caption “Win her over with Chloroform.” Witness John Dennis Bradley stated that Anthony searched for the word “chloroform” eight-four times.

In the 2008 controversial court case of Casey Anthony, the innocent verdict incorrectly acquitted her because of false information, location of remains, and hurtful intentions. Casey’s first lie involved her saying she has talked to Caylee. She was already dead. “Casey Anthony told police that she spoke to her daughter Caylee on July 15, 2008, the day Caylee was reported missing. She told

February 23, 1983 a man walked into a house with no good intention but to burglarize it. Home during all this was Jeanine Nicarico who was home alone resting because she had the flu. She was taken from her home and raped two days later she was found dead. Jeanine was only 10 years old. The only clue left at the crime scene was a boot print.

The jury took 10 hours and 40 minutes to deliver a not guilty verdict to the charges of first-degree murder, aggravated manslaughter of a child, and aggravated child abuse (3). Casey Anthony was found guilty of four counts of providing false information to law enforcement and check forgery (6). I personally don’t agree with the jury’s verdict. There is a lot of evidence pointing to the fact that Casey killed Caylee. First, she didn’t report Caylee missing and lied to her parents on her whereabouts.

USA TODAY published an article “Casey Anthony breaks her silence: I sleep pretty good at night.” Anthony did an interview with Associated Press speaking about the case and her daughter’s death for the first time. The Associated Press said that the interview with Anthony was “revealing, bizarre and often contradictory, and ultimately raised more question than answers about the case.” In the interview with Associated Press, Anthony admitted to lying to the police about a number of things such as her employment, leaving her child with a babysitter, and receiving a call from Caylee before she went missing. During the trial, the defense stated that Caylee had drown in the pool and then Casey Anthony’s father tried to cover up the accident.

In the Casey Anthony trial, a controversial piece of evidence had been brought up about whether or not the “smell of death” from the trunk of Casey’s car can be linked to and used as evidence in the death of her daughter, Caylee Anthony. The smell that was in the trunk of Casey’s car could have been used as evidence in the trial. Why? Because it would have proven that, her daughter Caylee decomposed body was in the trunk of the car.

On June 20th, 2001, Andrea Yates killed her five young children Noah, John, Paul, Luke, and Mary in the bathtub of the family’s home in Houston, Texas. The family was Caucasian, and at the time of the crime, Noah was 7, John was 5, Paul was 3, Luke was 2, Mary was 6 months, and Yates was 36. Yates’s husband Russell “Rusty” Yates was at work at the time of the crime. Yates killed her children as a result of her post-partum psychosis and other mental illnesses that had been developing throughout her life. After she finished the murders, Yates called the police and then called Rusty to tell him to come home.

When police investigators searched through her records and computer history, they found something odd, her history consisted of searches like “How to make chloroform” and “Neck breaking” so why would she look this stuff up for no intentions? What’s worse is that, large amounts of chloroform appeared to be found in Casey’s car, the evidence is all there, yet she was found not guilty! This is absurd. When George, (Caylee’s father) received a notice that his car was being towed, he noticed

The defense had witnesses who testified that Rae had good character and that he was looking forward to the birth of his child. However the State got the testimony of Rae’s former girlfriend. Like said earlier (page 1), she testified as to Rae’s anger when she became pregnant with his child, his unwillingness to pay child support, and his threats of violence. The jury charged Rae with first-degree murder but finding him guilty of discharge of a firearm into occupied property, conspiracy to commit murder, and use of an instrument to destroy an unborn child. The court sentenced Rae to 245 months in prison for the conspiracy conviction.

The defense attorney claimed that Anthony and her father tried to cover up the death. A forensic expert is brought in and testifies that there must have been a decomposing body in Anthony’s car trunk because that was the only plausible explanation for the odor in the car trunk. Casey Anthony did not testify during the whole court process. The jury deliberated for almost eleven hours and their verdict for Anthony was that she was not of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse and aggravated manslaughter of a child. She was found guilty of four counts of providing false information to law enforcement.

The trial for Casey finally started in December 2011, three years after the disappearance of Caylee. The prosecution was seeking the death penalty, they tried to use the media as much as they could to try and get people on there side. They had images of her partying while her daughter was missing, they kept saying that she didn’t even want the child. They used every way possible to get the jury to feel bad enough for Caylee to get them on their side.

Anyone watching the case had already put a guilty stamp on the young mother, but her defense team still managed to get a not guilty from the jury. It seems the foremost reason why Casey was acquitted is because there was not enough forensic evidence. There wasn’t even a true cause of death determined. The prosecutions core angle was painting Casey as a habitual liar and unfit mother. According to Donald Jones, “Prosecutors spent half of their case depicting Anthony as a liar and a bad mother, but that didn’t prove she killed her daughter.”

On May 25, 2010 Casey Anthony 's lawyer states to the court and jury that Caylee was unintentionally drowned in the swimming pool of their home , and that Casey and her father had cover it up. The prosecution presented that Casey Anthony did research on chloroform at her home computer but her mother Cindy Anthony 's asserted that it was her that made the searches that implicated her daughter but the records showed that Cindy Anthony was at work when these searches were done. On July 5, the jury found Casey not guilty of first degree murder but she was found guilty on four misdemeanors because she provided false material to a law enforcement officers.
