You so-and-sos convinced me to look this up on Wikipedia. Joel Send a noteboard - 06/07/2011 05:11:40 PM
and based on her lies to the authorities she should be guilty of child neglect at least. If you dont report your child missing for 30 days and you had nothing to do with their disappearance then maybe reporting the missing child on day 1 would have helped the police find the "real" killer/kidnapper, the childs remains WERE found not too far from the home after all.

Where I discovered she wasn't convicted of perjury, just, as you said, lying to the authorities, which is a very different thing (a misdemeanor, in fact, of which Wikipedia she was found guilty on four counts, not seven; this is probably a good example of why your opinion on the case matters so much less than that of the jury). Law isn't about what you think or know, but what you can prove, which is a very good thing. The prosecution didn't prove it's case so the defendant was found not guilty; if you think she WAS guilty your beef, complain to the prosecution about what a sorry job they did on such a solid case.

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 993 Views
she was found guilty of 7 counts of lying to the Authorities Aisha - 06/07/2011 12:10:03 AM 804 Views
Then she'll do some pretty hard time. Joel - 06/07/2011 12:17:22 AM 769 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 881 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 676 Views

You think her race and sex are irrelevant to the media attention garnered? Ghavrel - 06/07/2011 06:55:33 AM 666 Views
In a word, yes. Joel - 06/07/2011 12:27:37 PM 1004 Views
except it does apply. LadyLorraine - 06/07/2011 02:43:08 PM 883 Views
I agree, but what if the accused was of a different race/ethnicity? Avendesora - 06/07/2011 02:55:22 PM 796 Views
oh I'm sure we'd hear about how racist the media is LadyLorraine - 06/07/2011 04:22:08 PM 932 Views
I agree, which is why I watch very little tv lately. *NM* Avendesora - 06/07/2011 04:23:23 PM 421 Views

VERY wrong place. . *NM* Avendesora - 06/07/2011 02:52:21 PM 432 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 879 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 434 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 615 Views
They did charge her with it random thoughts - 07/07/2011 02:48:51 PM 840 Views
Yes, I didn't realize that was once of the charges. *NM* everynametaken - 08/07/2011 03:32:11 AM 282 Views
The case should never have gone to trial Ryan - 06/07/2011 07:28:44 AM 789 Views
I don't think they proved murder random thoughts - 06/07/2011 03:30:04 PM 709 Views
It's sad that so many people care so much about this case. Palatine - 06/07/2011 04:40:50 PM 676 Views
