As you know, I have become a muu-muu-wearing, sunshade-sporting, hyphen-overusing court rubberneck over this case. Like Camper, I agree with the verdict. Knowing the circumstances of the death is not possible when all you have is dry bones. There are only possibilities and probabilities. Without going into details TMI for most of you, here's my best guess speculation: (and you know how I love spec-you-LATING):
Caylee was on the computer and not watching Caylee. She got out, the laddar was up, she climbed in the pool. Casie found her and saw that she was, in her opinion, dead. She covers it up as a first thought because this is what she's done all her live, cover up and lie. She puts duct tape on her mouth and nose to make it look like a kidnapping/murder. She throws the body in the trunk because she doesn't have the second part of a plan made up yet. She is so detached from reality, she doesn't even think far enough ahead to think, "A dead body in a trunk in Florida will rot and stink to high heaven." She lives in the narcissistic world, which says, "I can pull this off and no one will know. I'm a great liar." She dumps the body figuring the stink will make a crocodile eat it, or fish or wildlife of whatever---maggots maybe. She deals with the guilt and sorrow by pumping up her self-esteem at a hot body contest--I'M HOT! I'M COOL! I'M NOT A BAD MOTHER!
Or, as Juror 3 said, it could have been anything else. She could have stabbed or beaten her to death, lit her on fire, chloroformed her, or she could have died naturally of a blocked heart valve. We don't know.
The only thing proven was that Casey Anthony is an absolute horror of a person. She will have to move to Argentina where they don't seem to mind the criminal mind amidst them. Here in America, she needs to have a T-shirt with a target on it, because she will never truly be free of fear again that someone, somewhere will exact their own capital punishment.
OR....she may live like OJ did. Everywhere he went a bubble of silent accusations and stares followed him. Polite waiters asking him very regretfully if he would mind terribly just leaving the establishment? Yeah, there's a sentence in that but for a person like Casey, maybe notoriety is better than not being a celebrity at all.
