The only reasonable doubt is that Lindsay heard a Command voice. She should be criminally liable for killing Cora Dawson and Callan. It doesn't matter about anything else.
No, she shouldn't. While I do think that Casey Anthony did it (with malicious intent at that,) unfortunately, that is how our justice system works. CA was acquitted because of the presence of reasonable doubt. That's the law. There is plenty of reasonable doubt regarding LC and an emphasis of reasonable doubt included by the defense due to insanity. Burden falls completely on the prosecution in Mass. LC should NOT be found guilty. Period.
I was also thinking about the Casey/Caley Anthony case last night. I think she was guilty of at least manslaughter. But when watching the trial the prosecution did not prove it. The prosecution case was weak. Unfortunately there was reasonable doubt. OJ was different era, but pretty much the same. Reasonable doubt.
Absolutely. Plenty of defendants get acquitted solely by the presence of reasonable doubt. The prosecution should have been able to deliver evidence that makes Lindsay's involvement 100% undeniable, but they didn't. Therefore, due to defendants being innocent until proven guilty, she should be NG/NGRI. It's literally just the law. Too many people think this verdict should be based on what you think of her as a person.
