Trial by Blogger
I decided to start this blog to open the gates of dialogue, and that is CIVIL DIALOGUE, regarding Casey Anthony and why people hate her so much. I will start this blog with the written warning that I will not tolerate disrespectful commentary, but warmly welcome civil discussion from all party lines with regard to this case.
Casey Anthony, in my opinion, is being treated unfairly by the judicial system and thus far from my research, I am having a hard time believing that this case is not fueled by anything more than hate and venom from the online bloggers because Joe Public does not give this case but a glance if reading it in the paper, or a haphazard listen if it is on the news. It is the online community that cares about this case, and it is the online community that has already tried, convicted and is marching Casey Anthony to the death chamber for the death of her daughter, Caylee.
It is a pesky, little thing called our constitutional right to a fair trial that GUARANTEES that Casey Anthony receive a fair trial whether the online community likes it or not. It is the part of the part of the United States Bill of Rights which sets forth rights related to criminal prosecutions. The Supreme Court has applied the protections of this amendment to the states through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence
