“From the evidence, it was possible Caylee died accidentally.”

Flawed reasoning. There was NO evidence presented by the defense that she died accidentally, only conjecture. Since when is a “possibility” grounds for reasonable doubt.

WELL SAID....it is alarming how many people in this nation cannot understand the meaning of “reasonable.”

For the lazy jury in this trial, reasonable was ANY DOUBT at all...and you are so right that conjecture and “possibilty” with NO EVIDENCE to support it is NOT resonable doubt....it is just an excuse by a lazy cowardly jury to not make the tough decsion that they were given to make.

The defense does not have the burden to prove anything. The jury sat through the entire trial, heard the evidence, deliberated, and found reasonable doubt.

Wow! You just showed your total ignorance.

The burden of proof is ONLY on the state. Didn’t you know that?

The defendent is innocent until proven guilty by the state.
The defendent doesn’t have to prove anything to anyone.

I think you flunked American Justice system 101.
