Casey Anthony and Warren Jeffs

Casey Anthony and Warren Jeffs

Don’t get me wrong. If Casey Anthony did indeed murder her daughter, her crime is horrific. What befuddles me is the almost universal condemnation of Casey Anthony (who was found not guilty) and the relative quiet concerning the crimes of Warren Jeffs (who was found guilty by a court of law). What gives? Warren Jeffs abused who knows how many children for how many years and yet I am not sensing the same degree of outrage as is presently directed toward Casey Anthony.

I have observed another phenomenon in the case of Casey Anthony. The majority of people who believe that Casey may not be guilty (and it is a slim percentage) are male. The majority of people who think that Casey Anthony is without a doubt guilty of murder appear to be female. Is there something subconscious going on? I’m not Sigmund Freud but does this having anything to do with the fact that Casey Anthony is a physically attractive woman? What do you think?
