You think her race and sex are irrelevant to the media attention garnered? Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 06/07/2011 06:55:33 AM
Look for the last time a young black female was widely reported in national news as being kidnapped, murdered, or tried for murder. I'm sure you'll find one eventually, after you wade through pages of young white co-eds.

I believe in divine judgement Aisha - 05/07/2011 11:38:44 PM 761 Views
I can tell you exactly why a jury didn't find her guilty of perjury, child neglect etc: Joel - 06/07/2011 12:04:12 AM 921 Views
she was found guilty of 7 counts of lying to the Authorities Aisha - 06/07/2011 12:10:03 AM 753 Views
Then she'll do some pretty hard time. Joel - 06/07/2011 12:17:22 AM 722 Views
No she won't. Timthetrolloc - 07/07/2011 06:48:40 AM 801 Views

No biggy, I probably just should've edited the other one. Joel - 09/07/2011 10:56:06 AM 790 Views
That tweet sums it all up... Wibble - 05/07/2011 10:43:55 PM 906 Views
This. There is a reason we do trial by jury not trial by lynch mob. *NM* Urza - 05/07/2011 10:47:56 PM 428 Views

I didn't watch it all, and I bet most of the public didn't either. nossy - 05/07/2011 11:44:04 PM 744 Views
Also a good point. Joel - 06/07/2011 12:23:16 AM 777 Views

Did you spend 8 hours a day for a month going thru the evidence? *NM* Urza - 05/07/2011 11:36:03 PM 349 Views
I think you misunderstood what she was saying. *NM* Tashmere - 06/07/2011 12:21:30 AM 305 Views
The judicial system IS based on the belief it's better to free the guilty than condemn the innocent. Joel - 05/07/2011 11:52:37 PM 834 Views
What a great John Adams quote! That sums it up perfectly *NM* Dark Knight - 06/07/2011 01:06:50 AM 427 Views
Thanks, it's a long time favorite of mine. Joel - 06/07/2011 01:27:00 AM 669 Views
So far this is the first time I've used the Facebook "LIKE" button. j-whitt987 - 06/07/2011 04:46:06 AM 808 Views
I would have to side with the jury on this one. As much as I think she did it, I could not have Tashmere - 06/07/2011 12:18:05 AM 630 Views
I cannot begin to express how little I care. Ghavrel - 06/07/2011 01:07:48 AM 655 Views
I would like to say the same. Tashmere - 06/07/2011 01:21:36 AM 914 Views

In a word, yes. Joel - 06/07/2011 12:27:37 PM 954 Views
except it does apply. LadyLorraine - 06/07/2011 02:43:08 PM 828 Views
I agree, but what if the accused was of a different race/ethnicity? Avendesora - 06/07/2011 02:55:22 PM 739 Views
oh I'm sure we'd hear about how racist the media is LadyLorraine - 06/07/2011 04:22:08 PM 889 Views
I agree, which is why I watch very little tv lately. *NM* Avendesora - 06/07/2011 04:23:23 PM 400 Views
Except in this case it doesn't. Joel - 06/07/2011 05:04:36 PM 793 Views

Last I heard, we don't try people via the Court of Public Opinion *NM* ßelals Girl - 06/07/2011 03:13:40 AM 282 Views
I agree. j-whitt987 - 06/07/2011 04:38:46 AM 842 Views
VERY wrong place. . *NM* Avendesora - 06/07/2011 02:52:21 PM 414 Views
Nope. I didn't think she was guilty of 1st degree murder. Nobody is to blame but the prosecutors... everynametaken - 06/07/2011 04:37:39 AM 830 Views
she did claim the death was an accident and she was found not guilty of manslaughter as well *NM* random thoughts - 06/07/2011 12:56:18 PM 413 Views
I thuught they would have had to charge her with that in order to convict her of it? everynametaken - 07/07/2011 02:37:53 AM 562 Views
They did charge her with it random thoughts - 07/07/2011 02:48:51 PM 797 Views
Yes, I didn't realize that was once of the charges. *NM* everynametaken - 08/07/2011 03:32:11 AM 264 Views
The case should never have gone to trial Ryan - 06/07/2011 07:28:44 AM 737 Views
I don't think they proved murder random thoughts - 06/07/2011 03:30:04 PM 654 Views
It's sad that so many people care so much about this case. Palatine - 06/07/2011 04:40:50 PM 633 Views
I agree. Spriteling - 07/07/2011 05:35:35 AM 528 Views
