Trigger Mike Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I heard on the news that casey had wanted to put her daughter up for adoption but that her mother talked her out of it. As a father of three adopted children I can tell you this, that the mothers of these young ladies who want to let another family raise their baby need to stay out of it and let them do that. The little girl would likely still be alive today. I know these mothers are thinking about the joys found in a grand child, but what joy is there in a dead one? What joy is there in one neglected because its mother does not want to keep it and feels forced to and is so resentful of her mother pressuring her to not let another needing couple adopt it that she will not let her mother have it either. One of ours never let her mother see it for fear her mother would try to talk her out of her decision, the other one did not let her mother know she was pregnant for the same reason. The third's was supportive and met us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trigger Mike Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 Mike . . very interesting. Thanks for posting about it. I had done my best to avoid the story and the trial. I did not pay much attention to it at all either but did pick up on the adoption part since my ears perk up when I hear that word. Ii did not listen to talk radio today on the way home like I usually do since it was all about the trail that is over and done with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowCatcher Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm sure we'll hear a lot of crap fer a spell--------------- Its over 'n the bitch walked- So . .without being on the jury and hearing the testimony, and without the prosecutor being able to provide one single piece of evidence, people who listen to the media are ready to hang this woman. This is the same media that has to wipe Obama off their chin, and who will tell you that gun owners are evil hillbilly's ready to revolt against our country, but on their word we're ready to hang this girl. She may well be a sick girl in need of real help - but on what evidence will you hang her dead? SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 If it was up to Nancy Grace everyone from pickpockets to murderers would be drawn and quartered. Guilty or not. I can't imagine anyone wanting to be a guest on her show, especially a defense lawyer. She is downright rude to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I think Shadow Catcher has the right idea. My take on the acquittal is simply that the system works as designed. "Better one hundred guilty men freed than one innocent man convicted" We don't always get justice, but hopefully we get decisions that comply with the law-that is what we should hope. Maybe she didn't do what the media has suggested-Nancy Grace is like a terrier after she gets something in her mind and she just keeps shaking it. If there was anything exculpatory, we as the public don't hear about it til after it is over and done with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Yup..system worked. Just like it works when inncocent people get convicted, it can work with the guilty found innocent. GG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
