In the court of law with a jury of her peers, Casey Anthony was found not guilty of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee. In the court of public opinion, Casey Anthony is a modern-day Jezebel, a spoiled brat and a fallen woman.
Now that the trial is finally over and she has been set free from jail after serving a mere 12 days for her misdemeanor convictions of lying to police, there are a few things the public can reflect on.
The most important and best thing to come out of the trial is the demonstration that guilt must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
Most of the jury “knew” that somehow Casey must have had some major involvement in the death of little Caylee. They didn’t have evidence to show weather it was murder or just an unfortunate accident that got out of control and parlayed into an absurd sequence of events.
It is comforting to know that Casey did not really get away with anything. She will get her punishment outside of the jail rather than in it. Everyone in the world holds her responsible for what happened. People will consider her a lying cheating “Jezebel” and steer clear of her.

Casey's prospects for a decent marriage are close to non existent. She will have to live with the facts that her child is dead, her parents are emotionally destroyed and her prospects for making a living are severely limited to things that most of us would rather not do.
Casey will live in perpetual fear that some nut will decide to seek instant justice. The prospects for cashing in on a book or movie are limited by the temporary nature of her fame and the difficulty of making the money last for any length of time. O.J. Simpson didn’t get much out of selling his story.
Casey has created her own personal hell on earth and will be punished for the rest of her life.
