This will be short and to the point. I am amazed at the surge in traffic to my site and blog post during the entire Casey Anthony trial. Only a day or two after her sentencing, the numbers plummeted back to normal. I found the topic timely and pertinent to the focus of my blog,30

I’ve been working on my second book. Sometimes things come to me in the writing process that simply cannot wait to be put between two covers. Today is one of those times. As I recollect the emotional strain an entire nation experienced while enduring the Casey Anthony trial, followed shortly by the Jaycee Dugard interview, it30

I am absolutely astonished at the number of hits on my blog driven by search terms regarding Casey Anthony. It has been mind-boggling. I jumped aboard that train and rode it because of the accusations of molestation, domestic violence/abuse and well, like everyone else, just trying to get some answers and make some sense of30

Throughout the Casey Anthony trial I strongly held the position being molested as a child is not an acceptable defense for murder. I did not take that position to help persecute or prosecute Casey.

 “Not guilty” does not mean “not innocent.” Casey Anthony is guilty of much. She is, without a doubt, guilty of not reporting her child missing for 31 days.  Her attorney admitted that. He also suggested she might be considered a “slut.” In reading the various comments posted not only on my blog, but all over30

[polldaddy poll=5189854]  This trial is becoming more and more amazing as each day passes. I find it absolutely amazing that the poll included on a post during the prosecution’s presentation had 97% of those voting Casey was guilty. Now that the defense has taken their turn, it is currently down to 77%, give or take.30

I’ve served jury duty before—actually was called and sat, being part of a group of 6 who decided the fate of one man. For what it’s worth, we found him innocent. There were other times I reported for jury duty, took the token paperback or writing pad to doodle the time away until our group30
