It's a hypocritical world we live in. There's HIPAA type laws all over the place - you might have a close relative in the hospital you'd like to get information on and you can't - and yet you have a case like this where complete strangers have threatened the lives of anyone remotely associated with the trial - and they release the names of the jurors? I mean WTF! (and I don't mean "Well, That's Fantastic"!) ..... that's just plain nuts.

This is just WRONG. The jurors did their duty, albeit poorly, and now the System has "done" them. Casey Anthony was saved from the death penalty and freed from any responsibility for her daughter's death; yet, these jurors have now been left to fend for themselves, in the face of death threats, from people who now know where they live and work. Yep! Sign me up!

The jurors did their job. PERIOD. Leave them alone. The prosecution had no evidence. Case closed. Move on.

The HIPAA comment is especially interesting.

Karma

Why shouldn't their names be made public. She's nobody special and trials are a matter of public records once they're over so the names should be published. When you're selected for a jury trial, you take your chances and when the outcome is unfavorable,,you just have to deal with whatever comes your way. DEAL WITH IT!!! and keep it moving. Things will die down eventually.

Seriously that is bull, if someone else was convicted on such little evidence there would be a huge uproar, but hey why not give her a chance for a new trial that would be dandy more money wasted. The state was not prepared for the trial and they failed not the jurors.I would hate to let so many people go to jail based on such little evidence. I know she is guilty but when you have nothing but theories, you have nothing to stand on. Those of you who are being a bit ridiculous, I would hate to ever be arrested and put on trial who knows maybe they will convicted you on the same amount of evidence they had on her.Wouldn't that be nice.

Seems like you can get away with murder bottom line, some can some can't ...roll the dice if you want to kill.

tattoo,partying,smell of death in trunk,1000 lies, no babysitter, sick family especially cindy, non cooperation with police, dishonest lawyer, only person with a motive, blaming so many other people with the murder accidental or not. Years and years of lies and stealing and getting away with it. A very cold dishonest person. Finally i agree jurors should not put anyone in prison if they are innocent but they should seek every possible piece of evidence if you are seeking the verdict. unforunately this jury failed to get justice and it set our court system back just as much as convicting a innocent person and finding years later that he or she is innocent, If casey anthony tomorow admitted that she did kill her baby she would still be free. that is not justice....

I think the jurors thought too much. They seemed to have tried to build a better mouse trap, when all they had to do is use some common sense. No one with a brain thinks she is not guilty. No one without an agenda thinks she's innocent. But we don't have a justice system in this country. We only have a legal system. And it's terribly broken. How about professional jurors?

The jurors did not use common sense in this case. They relied on their personal experience of watching too much TV. One hour shows where a crime is comitted,investigated and arrest made is not reality. They put TOO MUCH into DNA and confessions. I couldn't believe the things the alternate juror said in his many interviews. Not only did he not have hair under his cap, there was something else mnissing as well. The jurors in this case are the only ones in the world that afelt Anthony was innocent.

Perry, who paid you off for this information and how much???? We all know that our country has gone to hell in a handbag and all you're doing is making it worse. By naming the jour's all you're doing is giving the wackos ammunition to create more crime. I'd love to introduce my foot to your butt..

Seems to me, I'd take my chances skipping out on jury service if you lose the right to privacy. These people did their job. Prosecuter didn't. Leave them alone

having said all that i always thought circumstancial evidence can convict . there was e nough circumstancial to convict easily it seemed. the only thing missing was a pic of casey putting her daughter in her trunk and then throwing her like trash in the woods, I bet if a person robbed a 7-11 store wearing a ski mask and two weeks later they are arrested for the crime because they have suddenly stuck it rich would that be enough to convict? in most cases they are found guilty. Maybe a liar like casey could even get away with robbing a 7-11 also.

The truth will never come out. But the jury wasn't the brightest when you can't connect duct tape around the mouth and nose of a skull. Or Chloroform which is used specifically to knock someone out, stating We just couldn't figure out what the choloform would be used for? Or the heavy dead body smell in Casey's car (which she refused access to). Or the fact that the body was found right down the block from the house. You don't have duct tape, chloroform, heavy dead body smell in Casey's car, or hid body if an accident occurs. The cop who ignored the original call of possible remains in that field 6 months before they were found should be tar and feathered. And the jury biggest failure y far is that they rushed through deliberations because one juror had to be on a cruise within 2 days and complained non-stop (and just made it), and another was a soccer mom complaining repeatedly that she had a tournament to get to. All those serious multiple charges they had to go over, discuss, debate, and decide, yet they spent less than 15 minutes deliberating each charge in a major capital murder case. So Dean Eckstadt can go on TV and complain about the public feeling the jury was incompetent... because they were. You don't rush through deliberations, spending only 10-15 minutes on each charge in a major capital murder case if you were competent. You cannot explain, discuss, debate, decide all those major charges that quick and claim you did your best! Claim it was the only conclusion!

disgraceful, no wonder people don't want to serve on juries.
shame on that judge but frankly he was an imbecile from day one

Actually chloroform is a chemical commonly found in carpeting, which is why it was disgarded, they tested multiple cars in the same impound lot and found several of them got the same result. They "chloroform" internet search was traced back to a picture of one of Miss Anthony's friends myspace page who had a graphic which stated "trying to win her over? Use Chloroform,,"..every time Miss Anthony loaded her friends webpage it loaded that picture under the name "chloroform." and this was addressed in the trial and also caused the internet search to be disgarded as evidence. The amount of rotting garbage caused the "trunk" evidence to be contaminated and once again, caused the evidence to be disgarded..also in the trunk was rotted cheese from a pizza box, which contains some of the same fatty acids as decomposing human flesh and will cause a "hit" in testing, a technicality that also caused evidence to be disgarded. you can see where I'm going here, the Prosecution, in their rush, took the chance on faulty evidence and lost...it doesn't matter what anyone "thinks" and what anyones "opinion" is, it matters what the facts are, if the evidence is not there, and prosecution has already presented as muchfaulty, disgarded evidence as that team did, what choice doeas a jury have? Convict to appease the public and let her conviction be overturned on appeal later due to the amount of faulty evidence? Or just get it done and aquit her then and there?

This is wrong. The jury had to go by what the prosecution presented which was nothing. No matter that they knew in their heart that CA was guilty, they are not allowed to go on their emotions. They have to use EVIDENCE. There was none.

I have no idea what strange dynamic was at work with the Pinellas Jury and do feel they had more than enough evidence to hold Casey Anthony accountable for Caylee's death. Absolutley no evidence this child drowned but certainly damning proof that this child had duct tape placed over her lower face prior to decomposition and from the stinking trunk, that she was transported to those woods by her mother and no other. In addition I felt the jury were given more than enough evidence that Casey Anthony's eventual defense and accusations about her father had developed over time. The Nanny stories (plural) and those jailhouse tapes imo told their own very chillling story about this woman's psyche. Aggrevated manslaughter of a child imo was clearly established. That said I see no point in releasing these juror's names. The verdict cannot be changed and enough lives have been tainted by the lies and deeds of one Miss Casey Anthony. The poor baby did not receive justice but subjecting these 12 people to potential harrassment will not alter that sad fact. Ideally Casey Anthony will continue to be shunned by society and not be allowed to profit from her crime and noteriety.

I feel they should not have been made public because this will discourage anyone wanting to serve on a jury. I think many of the jury’s would have had a different decision , if they had been able to see all the evidence. Now that they have been able to see and read most of the damning evidence, I am sure their verdict would have been guilty. No use crying over this, in time CASEY ANTHONY will pay for the murder of her child.

Mike Briock, very well said! I think the names of the jury should be released so we can all know who these stupid people really are. I'm ashamed to be living in Pinellas County amongst these people! Bluntly stating "there was not enough evidence" or "the prosecution didn't prove its case" is no excuse for not at least convicting on manslaughter! They ignored the evidence presented and had absolutely NO COMMON SENSE. If it is true that they were in a hurry to get out of there, that is unforgivable and I hope they're haunted for their selfishness for the rest of their lives.

That Jury, and their comments, makes me sick to death!..if anyone beleives what they say today, or any other day, is corrupted, and as sick as them, and they need to be invesigated as well. We have a sick child murderering animal walking our streets because of them, and as far as I am concerned, all of them that sat on that Jury deserves what they get!.. from "Whom Ever" gives it to them!.. I hope that Jury is made to suffer for the rest of their lives for delivering a not guilty verdict!!. I don't think Caylee will ever be able to rest, even if she is in Heaven because of that Jury!. Once again, I hope that Jury gets what they deserve!. I also hope that whoever is wanting to take revenge on that Jury or Casey Anthony, I hope they get to!.. I would love to hear that someone erased her, and that Jury from this Planet!. Lets all hope we can see it on Pay Per View!.

Odd how everyone's middle name is Incompetent .

Hey, if she didn't do it, then who did? George?? If so, why has he not been investigated if what they say (Jose) , is true...re: the drowning in the pool. Nothing makes any since. I'm a Floridian who is infurianted with this Jury and their decision, and my tax dollars being wasted!! This was an "OJ" jury!!! They have to live with this decision for the rest of their lives. I often wonder what they think (if at all), when they read all of the articles that have been written about this horrible killer known as Casey
Anthony!!

I'm not a lawyer, but I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

One last comment - I personally think she "got away with murder" as they say...... BUT as one poster said in so many words, "the jurors will have to live with their decision the rest of their lives". I think the State blew their case and under the articles of law they just followed instructions on what they were presented....... garbage in, garbage out. I'm as sickened as the next person that child was killed and no one is being held accountable for it. I think Casey did it and the parents collectively created the monster known as Casey by letting that prima donna get away with years of BS. Every last one of them ought to be haunted for years. NOT being in the juror's room I have no idea what transpired BUT I would have thought if the judge himself thought it was an unjust verdict HE would did something himself - RIGHT?? So he's just as much to blame if we're blaming people. Bottom line: disclosing names (IMHO) serves no purpose!

i too am not a lawyer thank god though i have studied this case for over three years. With court tv,the internet and HLN i carefully weighed everything . Having said this and consulting with Leonard Padilla I firmly confirm Casey Anthony should be in prison...

I do not think the names should be made public, this case was so high profile and there are people who are unfortunately still upset that Casey was acquitted. I watched the entire trial from start to finish and on an emotional side I would say she is guilty, but the fact remains that the defense created enough confusion to create reasonable doubt and the jurors had to make their decision based on the law and the evidence provided which lead to her being acquitted. No one knows for sure what happened except God and Caylee. If Casey did intentionally murder her child, she will be held accountable in the biggest court room of all on judgement day. Until then, we have to accept the jury's decision, and let it go because she cannot be tried for again thanks to the prosecution overcharging her right out of the gate. Rest assured though for the people who want her to pay for a crime they feel she committed, she may be out of jail but she will never have a normal life ever again. She is hated by most everyone and the stigma will follow her the rest of her life. She will have trouble starting a new life, finding love, and really all of life's journeys she may not be behind bars but she has to live in seclusion and people always harrassing her. I don't think the jury should be harrassed for doing their civil duty

Guess crime does pay. Worked for Casey all the way around.

I know a good lawyer who can have your name changed legally within couple days and guess what; he is right down ulmerton Rd and Belcher.

I can see not guilty for murder count but what about the MANSLAUGHTER charge?!?! These stupid jurors definitely had enough evidence by far to convict her on the manslaughter and child abuse charges!! This jury system is horribly broken! Casey did it and we all know it! And now shes walking free because of this stupid justice system!
