Who speaks for Caylee?

Duct taped, murdered, and discarded like garbage, while those that participated in Casey's defense now smile, weep, embrace, celebrate American justice, and criticize the media, and lawyers who enjoyed media attention, while each of them walk away with enhanced reputations, book and movie deals, and lucrative cases for the rest of their professional lives.

Everyone wins, don't they?

Except Caylee.

The case is over, we move on, but let's remember that a rendered verdict does not mean justice was served or that the system works. If that were the case, no verdict would ever be appealed or overturned. Just because someone was found not guilty doesn't mean some cosmic law was upheld, it just means 12 people were convinced to agree.

I don't know of any better system, so we live with what we got.
