I agree. I think it should be up to the jury to decide. Maybe that is what ZG/Morgan will fight for in an appeal.
ullhair:... The judge is missing the boat on this one! Thinking it was a private conversation between mother and daughter. Nope - fca talked about it - in the recording - what more do they have to do convince him? Just like she KNEW and GAVE PERMISSION to her whole family to speak on her behalf and run "errands" for her - from her own mouth, many times, on the recordings.... I wanted to shake something when I read that 20 pg report... There's way too much of him "taking the word" of pathological liars involved in his decision. Especially fca, who ALWAYS lies to avoid accountability. You can count on it... And he even called fca's statements from the deposition "credible"... remember the deposition where she acted all self-righteous and refused to answer most of the questions, then stomped off like a spoiled brat without letting zenaida's side get anything on the record? .... It should've gone to a jury...Me too.
Any chance for real justice ended the day that jury declined to do their duty. Nothing can or ever will change that reality.
I firmly believe, though, that she's never going to escape the condemnation of the millions who followed this case, mourned Caylee and who despised FCA as a sociopathic child-killer.
Had the strength of that collective fury and revulsion been any less, or had it been felt but not acted upon, FCA would be rich right now. She's not. And she's not going to get rich, at least not by speaking or writing about her crimes. Even these years later, any mention of that possibility provokes enough outrage to deter profiteers.
Is preventing her from getting rich justice enough? No. But it's a start, as is the response she gets every time she floats a trial balloon to see how welcome she is in public. Public's reply: she's not welcome. She's hated. She will always be hated.
Does the fact of that hatred keep her up at night? No. I'm sure it doesn't. But I do believe it limits her in more ways than we know about. And that's something, if still not very much.
What I've always believed and said, though, is that she will be the instrument of her own downfall. Her minders have saved her from herself for years longer than I ever imagined, but I've always believed those minders know what she did to Caylee.
They've protected her as they would any investment, but there's ample proof now that their investment isn't going to pay off. Somehow I don't imagine loyalty is a strong suit of any of her minders.
She is or will be on her own, with a even greater sense of entitlement than she had while living at home. She's seen how wealthier folks live, she'll be demanding that way of life for herself, and she's no more willing or able to work for it than she was as a teenager.
I just don't see that's going to end well for her. I'm certainly praying that if I'm wrong about all this, that at the very least she is incapable for whatever reason of ever having another child.
BBM - This week a hoax report about FCA being found bludgeoned to death in Ohio was circulating. I didn't post it here because it was an obvious hoax. However, all the comments I read elsewhere were from people wishing it was really true. So you're right, the public still hates her and always will.Me too.
