Casey Anthony Begins Search For The Real Killers

An alternate juror in the Casey Anthony trial said in an interview the prosecution didn't come up with any hard evidence in the case.

Russell Huekler told the Washington Post Judge Belvin Perry gave the jury very specific instructions prior to deliberations.

“There were 12 pages of jury instructions for each charge,” he said. “And it was very clear what had to be proven for a guilty verdict.”

He said that jurors likely focused on the evidence, not the opening and closing statements in the trial.

The 51-year-old high school teacher said prosecutors didn’t establish a motive or prove murder.

The jury wasn't confronted with the daily media mob bloodlust coverage they everyone else was seeing.

Another consideration may be that the prosecution aimed too high on the charges leaving the jury with nothing to convict her on given the lack of evidence.

Anyone can determine that Casey Anthony, at the least, is guilty of neglect or aggravated assault. Based on the evidence presented at the trial by experts along with the fact that Casey's dead, ossified child was found in a garbage bag in the Anthony's neighborhood is damning.
