Why on earth would the jurors feel remorse for doing their civil duty?
Human beings always second guess themselves, wish we could here from at least 1000 folks on this.
My uncle was on a jury back in the 80's who convicted a man of murdering his step daughter. The man then spit at the jury after the verdict was read, to which the judge replied "that proves his guilt" (lol).
He walked free 5 yrs later when DNA testing proved his innocence.
Now that was a case of second guessing yourself. They never proved guilt in either of these cases.

But if they had found her guilty, you'd be all good with that and all of them....but all 12 plus the alternets didn't see it as you did, you villify them...

Yes, we vilified them. The quotes I've read from the one who spoke out "We were sick to our stomachs" "We weren't ready" "We were all crying" indicate a jury that didn't feel 100% certain they had deliberated to the very best of their abilities. Others, such as "There was no motive" and "There was no evidence of abuse or neglect" just boggle the mind. [Not reporting a toddler missing or dead isn't abuse?! Duct tape on face, placed in trash bags, thrown in swamp isn't abuse?!]
If they felt morally certain, they should have no problem explaining their decision - that they refuse to do so indicates they weren't/aren't sure about it. And it can not be undone. We trusted them, and they blew it.

I wish people who KNOW the facts of the case, would share them with us. You know... the stuff only the jury, and you know-it-alls get to see?
I know you're mad that a girl's murderer went unpunished, for now. But I'll tell you what... if a prosecutor wanted to hang me for something he couldn't prove, I'd want THAT jury!!!

That's why 75-80% isn't good enough to convict. You need 12 out of 12.

Why yes I do, Mr Mob Mentality!

The fact remains that they were not forced in anyway to return with a verdict when they did..they could have continued till they were ready..or even proclaimed a hung jury...it makes no difference if we agree with their verdict..I have said in my pst on more then once that i think she is as guilty as sin...but those that sat to judge her came back with a not guilty verdict..it makes no difference of anyone else in the general public agrees, those opinions don't count...but to wish them ill, order death threats (one here, but they are getting them) is simply assinine...especially with the fact that if they had agreed with you, they would have been the saviors that offered up justice for Caylee....
Do I have a problem with the villifying of the jury , you bet, because the system worked as it was suppose...Do i have a problem with you havng an oinion different from the jury? nope, But to wish them ill and offer up death threats is wrong on soo main levels it just showes a total disregard and lack of respect for the system we have in place..well unless it agrees with your opinion....
Oh and i also makes no difference if we agree with how they viewed the evidence...they sat there, we didn't they didn't get to hear all of the media hype (thank God) and they din't get to hear things that the public did because the judge wouldn't allow it...so again, it really makes no difference if anyone of us disagree or not..the verdict is what it is....

I'm just as disappointed in the people who threaten the jurors and/or Anthony family, because that's not how civilized folks act. We express our opinions, and may refuse to contribute to any effort Casey Anthony makes to profit from her actions, but that's as far as reasonable goes.
My belief is that no one can 'get over' on their own conscience - except the sociopaths, [including Casey Anthony] cause they don't have one.

I agree with you. My husband and I live in Florida, and we have been saturated with news and trial coverage on every channel on TV. Now that the trial is over, I agree with the verdict. It doesn't mean she's innocent. It just means that with the way the prosecution presented their case the jury was correct in their decision. The people who have protested and threatened the lives of anyone involved in this case should be ashamed of themselves. You have the right to disagree, but you don't have the right to take the law into your own hands. I think this whole situation would settle down if the TV networks would give it a rest, but because of ratings they keep the story going. Our system of justice may not be perfect, but it's the best in the world. Sometimes the guilty go free, but many times the innocent are convicted. I would rather have a thousand Casey Anthony's walking the streets than have just one innocent person imprisoned for a crime they did not commit. In the end, we will all be judged for our own deeds. Justice comes to everyone.:
The protesters look like the first 6 pages of the people of walmart website.

I'll go one step further. They should be tried, by a jury of their peers, convicted according to the evidence, and lose their freedom. Then justice will have been served; and they can have confidence that a jury did the right thing, in their minds.
And make Nancy Grace talk about them ad nauseum.
