Just one more thought before I leave you to decide who should play who in the upcoming movie, and I get on with the work of the day, which I have managed to ignore so far.
One thing that puzzled me as we drew close to the end of this trial and deliberations for a verdict.
Those who were really concerned about an outcome began to have fears we would see an outcome like the "OJ verdict".
I don't understand that comparison, because the exact opposite happened in the OJ case. The Defense was brilliant, there is not doubt of that. They took every opportunity to weezil into every loop hole, take advantage of every blooper of the SA, the CSI and a racist detective.
In the OJ case, it was the States Attorneys who were a complete disgrace. If you remember, they were in front of microphones spouting off every night of that case. Marcia Clark spent more time worrying about her media appearance and posturing in the courtroom than she did on her case prosecution. It truly was sloppy, the CSI's were sloppy, and have a racist detective impeached on the stand was another nail hammered home. But to allow a defendant to put on a leather glove that had been washed, and not fitted dry was the ultimate stupidity. All leather shrinks when wet and must be blocked or pulled onto a hand or block to fit it to size again. The SA lost that case and the OJ jury confirmed that fact.
In the prosecution of ICA, this SA has been tight, constantly on point, accurate and hard hitting. They stayed away from the soft he/she said points and stuck with the hard forensics. They have been brilliant and will not fail Caylee Marie Anthony. They will not fail.[/QUOTE]
