In EVERY "celebrity" case that involves potential money-making for selling the story/interviews/book-rights/public appearances/etc., the money made should be going to pay for the cost of the Trial, including re-imbursement to the State (aka; Taxpayers) and to the bearers of the cost of the Funeral, AND, any discovery subsequent to the end of a Trial, that could possibly be Tried such as "misuse of a Corpse" or "illegal transport of a Corpse", or "Perjury" in the ORIGINAL Trial, etc. should be prosecuted to the fullest extent possible.

More and more, women are killing their husbands, babies, children, etc., and getting away with it. Now, look for others to kill their children, hide the body for months until it deteriorates to the point of no way to identify the cause of Death, destruction of the corpse, etc., so as to use the "Prosecution cannot establish cause of Death" defense.

As a Country, we have de-valued human life, and celebrate "party mentalities", as was clearly shown in this "Trial".

Most mothers would not go without reporting their 2-year old disappearing for more than a month, nor would they go out and get a "Life is Good" tattoo afterward, IMHO.

This was an absolute travesty. The one juror who’s been on multiple shows, Jennifer Ford, is a young ditz and O’Reilly was so disturbed by her statements he made it his opening talking point, about the fact that she (and apparently other jurors) embraced the groundless theory of accidental drowning put out by the defense, despite there being no evidence whatsoever to support it:

(about 1:07 into it)

There have been murder convictions in the past where there was NO body - all circumstantial. And in the Lacey Peterson case, there wasn’t enough of her body left to determine cause of death - again, circumstantial. Yet, thankfully, Scott’s on death row now, as he obviously should be. It does appear these jurors were a product of the “CSI effect” and also didn’t understand the difference between “reasonable doubt” and “shadow of a doubt” - an important distinction.

I agree with a disgusted Bernie Goldberg - these jurors demonstrated they don’t possess a modicum of common sense. They refused to take all the many puzzle pieces and come to a logical decision. Some were also said to consider the (once again, groundless) accusation of sexual abuse by George Anthony, even though the judge ruled against it as being baseless.

And tragically, this poor darling, innocent little girl will have no justice, no retribution against her monster of a “mother”.
