Great new ebook! Wonderfully insightful! ~ GoddessNeith
From sidebars to sideshows, this is "The Casey Anthony Murder Trial.” A comprehensive look at the media, judicial system and more, eyes wide open. This is what most people never see, inside a murder trial. With forward by David E. Siar, Criminal Attorney and postscript by Laura Schultz, Pyschotherapist.
Authors Claudette Walker and Matrix Filia are together for the first time in the writer’s den, sharing a mother daughter bond that has spanned nearly 40 years, a concept as old as time. Their unique perspective and the unfortunate commonality of this tragedy inspired a comprehensive look at the trial of Casey Anthony for the murder of her daughter, Caylee.
With all the elements of an American tragedy, complete with the elevation of the mother to celebrity status, Casey Anthony stands accused of murdering her two-year-old daughter. Caylee last seen with her mother went unreported missing for 31 days. A massive worldwide search ensued, before the discovery of Caylee’s remains in a murky swamp six months later.
Both the lawyers and witnesses seem to cross the lines between fact and fiction during this spectacle of horrors. The media covered the arrest of the mother and for the first time an American jury selection is televised, live from our home of Pinellas, Florida. From selection to sentencing, this is a comprehensive interpretation of a first-degree murder trial and our American Justice system, for good or bad. The judge, lawyers, evidence, jury, costs, media, Facebook, Twitter, verdict and sentencing are all part of the “Circus of the Century”. This is not a verbatim transcript, but a keyhole look at what happened in courtroom 23.
”Happy families are all alike… every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” ~ Leo Tolstoy
It was brilliant looking at this trial through the eyes of two individuals who were just describing the and explaing everything that was happening in the courtroom, with the Defense, Prosecutor and the Judge. Thanks for a very good and interesting read. ~ Linda Leipziger

A BRILLIANT AUTHOR SHEDS A BRIGHT BEAM INTO THE CENTER OF THIS TRIAL
When asked to write the postscript for this book, I knew it was an important story. Reading it makes me realize how right I was about the importance of this book. I also became aware of how much I did not know about the horrific death of this child and the judicial process that was to try her mother for the death. I walked away from reading this book with an understanding of how unpredictable our justice/jury system can be. From the media and shows like CSI, juries currently expect a great deal of forensic evidence such as DNA, fiber, strands of hair etc. However, such is rarely the case in a homicide. Furthermore, young missing children do not garner a great deal of news coverage, unless the media is focused on that particular child whose case then develops into a high profile one.It would behoove all of us to be more sensitive to and become more aware of those whose task it is to guard our most precious resources, our children.
