The past week in the Casey Anthony trial has been one full of drama. Judge Perry has for the most part kept his cool and maintained a steady course for the good ship Casey Anthony. Although a few icebergs have been spotted, he has skillfully avoided them.
Today Jan and Simon Barrett were joined by the panel to discuss the events of last week, and also cast a glimpse into the crystal ball of what may lay ahead.
Our panel consisted of Crimewire founder Denny Griffin, journalist and contributor to Orlando Magazine Dave Knechel, prominent Hollywood attorney, and health researcher Mannie Barling, and Bail Bondsman William Cobra Staubs.
It was to say the least an illuminating program. Diverse skill sets brought together with a common focus. This blend is sadly missing in many of the (and I will quote, all parties involved) ‘entertainment programs’ put out by supposed news luminaries such as Nancy Grace on HLN.
If you missed the live broadcast you can listen to the recording here.
Much is misunderstood about the judicial system, and many people have offered commentary on both the Casey Anthony trial and the many other sad situations that are wending their way through the process.
One thing is for sure, Judge Perry will keep this trial on track. In someways he reminds me of the monster at the very end of the original Mario Brothers game, Bowser was damn hard to get past. Like Bowser Judge Perry understands his kingdom, it takes a lot to get something past him. Next week should be very interesting.
There were two important items that we just had no time to mention on the program. WFTV and particularly the two gentlemen running the web site Craig and Bruce are doing an outstanding job. Over 18,000 people watching, and over 3000 people commenting! What a nightmare. Apparently the comment traffic reached a peak of two per second! Kudos to these two people, you are doing a great job of covering the Casey Anthony trial.
The second item has nothing at all to do with Casey Anthony. But it provides a very worrisome backdrop to child abuse in today’s society. We are not ‘shock jocks’, but I do ask that if you do not like to read disturbing articles please do not read this. Jan had tears running down her face as she related the story to me.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackFYI The woman who caused a problem in the court is a drug addict on methadone. She has a long rap sheet of drug arrests and bad check charges.
I think that the defense removed Rosalie due to all the publicity. She may be working behind the scenes.
I’m listening to today’s show now. I’m shocked that no one on the panel knew of the outburst woman’s rap sheet. She’s not new to the system, she’s been in jail several times before, she has several minor drug charges plus six felony bad check charges.
The woman used her mental illnesses and medications as an excuse for her bad behavior and she’s probably done that before. She’s been arrested in TWO counties. She knew what was going on.
She was released on Saturday morning 5/21/2011 7:21 AM. Time served.
No need to feel sorry for her. She, herself, claimed she was in the courthouse because her fiance was up on domestic abuse charges, and even though she had to endure the abuse for two years, she still loves him.
The woman also has battery charges in her past, too.
I don’t feel sorry for casey ONE BIT.She derserves to die.For what she did to poor caylee. That never got a change in life.It’s terrible how she is wasting all the tax payers money.
I have faith that the State’s attornies can obtain justice for Caylee, they have the truth on their side.
I gar-ron-tee there will be such a huge outburst, a plethora of information coming forward in the courtroom that won’t shock many who have been paying complete attention to most of the details. There will be complete justice for Caylee, 4 fold. I can’t wait for the SA to go after pa and ma, might be tomorrow and then the end will come pretty fast. No 6 to 8 week wait on nothing.
Does anyone know if any radio stations are carring the trial south florida
I am enjoying the coverage of the casey anthony trial on HLN tv. However, I am very put out with the amount of commercial breaks and also the amount of commentary done by the reporters. I would like to HEAR what the prosecutors and defense lawyers have to say in the opening statements WITHOUT interruption. I’m sure others feel the same way since several people are watching it with me.
Pat you can watch and hear the live broadcast inside the courtroom here online:
