Casey Anthony: Is it a death-penalty case? ... 1000 mothers kill they babies every year and none of them get the death-penalty. Should Casey Anthony be different?

I'm your HUCKLEBERRY Answered:

So sad,when a mother kills her children.

Why No Death Penalty for Casey Anthony?

Why? From my perspective, and admittedly this is the viewpoint of a defense advocate speaking from years of death-qualified experience and education on mitigating factors involving mental health issues and the like, when the aggravators are balanced against the mitigators, I do not believe that the death penalty can result. Legally, the scales don't fall that way.

That, of course, is my opinion. And, it's just my opinion. The jury may not agree with me
