Casey Anthony Child Murder Verdict Proves American Insanity

In a country whose Nobel Peace Prize winning President has launched three
new wars since his taking office, and whose economy is on the brink of collapse
as tens of millions have been forced from their jobs and homes, one would think
that the America people would have by now have become inured to the deliberate
manipulation of their psyches by their propaganda media organs, but as a
bizarre child-murder case verdict yesterday clearly shows, this is not the
circumstance, far from it.
The case itself involved a young
Under the American system of jurisprudence (science or philosophy of law) as
enshrined in their Constitution, Ms Anthony was indicted for her alleged
crime(s) by a Grand Jury of her peers, arrested for same, jailed without bond
or bail for 3 years, tried by another Jury of her peers in open court, and
yesterday was found to be “Not Guilty”
of the three most serious charges against her.
Ms Anthony was, however, convicted by this same jury on 4 counts of
providing to police false information which carry a combined sentence of 4 years
in prison leaving many US legal experts to believe she will be freed at her
sentencing hearing due to take place tomorrow, 7 July, or, at the most, be
sentenced to be incarcerated for less than a year.
Having worked the way it was intended to, Ms Anthony was the latest
beneficiary of what can only be described as one of the best justice systems
ever devised in a civilized society for determining guilt or innocence as the
US Constitution provides that all Americans who are charged with a crime are “innocent before proven guilty” and can only be convicted upon
proof of evidence showing that “beyond a
reasonable doubt” the accused is, indeed, guilty of the crime they have
been charged with.
The exact instructions regarding “reasonable
doubt” given by the Judge overseeing Ms Anthony’s trial to the Jury charged
with determining her guilt or innocence said:
“A
reasonable doubt is not a mere possible doubt, a speculative imaginary or
forced doubt . . . on the other hand, if after carefully considering, comparing
and weighing all the evidence there is not an abiding conviction of guilt, or,
if having a conviction, it is one which is not stable but which waivers and
vacillates, then the charge is not proved beyond every reasonable doubt and you
must find the defendant not guilty because the doubt is reasonable. It is to
the evidence introduced in this trial, and to it alone, that you are to look to
that proof.”
The US Constitutional protections against a Jury convicting an American
citizen of a crime based on passion or prejudice, or for any reason outside of
the evidence presented in open court, stands nearly unique in the world today,
and is especially relevant when compared to the
over 10,000
civilian protesters sentenced to prison in Egypt by secret military
tribunals over these past few months not even allowed to know the charges
against them.
Though the “Not Guilty” verdicts
handed down by the Jury to Ms Anthony neither proves her guilt or innocence, it
does show that 12 of her fellow citizens found that the evidence presented
against her did not meet the high standard of proving that she committed the
crimes of which she was accused of “beyond
a reasonable doubt,” a verdict, mind you, one would think would be
celebrated for its upholding of the highest ideas of the US Constitution as
what stands for one of these people, especially the weakest and most despised,
stands for them all.
Far from celebrating this latest affirmation of the unique power of their
Constitution, however, the vast majority of the American people have, instead,
launched into what can only be called as an insane attack upon it by impugning
the Jury that found Ms Anthony “Not
Guilty.”
The reason for them doing so lies in the
massive
Cable TV and Social Media coverage given throughout Ms Anthony’s tortured saga
through the US legal system proclaiming her guilt leading one of her defense attorneys Cheney Mason to
state yesterday after the verdict was handed down, “I hope
that this is a lesson to those of you that have indulged in media assassination
for three years. Bias, prejudice and incompetent heads saying what would be and
how to be. I'm disgusted by some of the lawyers who have done this.”
The “lesson” Attorney Mason wanted
the American media to “learn,”
however, appears to have fallen on deaf ears as the drumbeat of propaganda
What these insane Americans are failing to note in their propaganda media
driven uproar is that it wasn’t the
Jury that acquitted Ms Anthony; it was, in fact, their own Constitution, the
single most important document to freedom ever conceived, but which is now
under an
assault so great many wonder if it will be able to survive the many grave
crisis’s facing the United States today.
As history has all to often shown, an American public whipped into fear
and/or anger stand always eager to shred to the very protections given to them
in their Constitution by their Founding Fathers for whatever “remedy of the moment” put before them
by their elite masters. So dangerous has
it become to be an American today, and as we detailed in our 2 June report “
Russia Warns American Police
State Now Rivals That Of Nazi SS,” that instead of being the freest
people on Earth, they have become the most controlled.
The great American Founding Father Benjamin Franklin once warned his fellow
countrymen,
“Those who
would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve
neither liberty nor safety.” Unfortunately, at least for those
denouncing their own Constitution through Ms Anthony’s trial verdict being
whipped into a frenzy by their propaganda media organs, these wise words today
are falling on deaf ears.
