On July 15, 2008, two year old Caylee Anthony was reported missing by her grandmother, Cindy Anthony. Cindy notified the 911 operator after realizing she had not seen the girl in a month. Casey Anthony, Caylee’s mother, gave police several different reasons for the girl’s disappearance, including the story that the girl had been kidnapped by a babysitter. On December 11, 2008, Caylee’s remains were found in a Florida swamp near the Anthony home. Duct tape found with the body, the odor analysis done on Casey’s car trunk, a human hair found in the trunk, and the lies Casey told law enforcement in an attempt to explain her child’s disappearance led to Casey Anthony being tried for the first degree murder, aggravated…

The show the death of Cay lee an alleged intentional murder and were asking for the death penalty against Casey Anthony. The prosecutors believe that Casey used chloroform to render her daughter unconscious before putting duct tape over her nose and mouth to suffocate her. Then, Casey left Cay lee’s body in the trunk of her car for a couple days before disposing it. The prosecution painted Casey as a party girl who killed her daughter to free herself from the responsibilities of being a parent. The fact that Casey was told about the drowning theory in jail by her own mother and that this is where she got the idea for such a defense was also brought up. Casey Anthony has lied so many times to family and law enforcement about the whereabouts of her daughter. As her daughter was missing during the first thirty days she continued to go out partying with friends and she also went out and got a tattoo on her back of “Bella Vita” which in Italian means beautiful life. Casey wasn’t acting like a concerned mother looking for her missing…
Since the day that Casey Anthony was acquitted of all felony charges people everywhere have been asking themselves, “What went wrong?’’. How could it be that this women, whom everyone was sure had murdered her child, walked away with only 4 misdemeanors? All of which were of making a false statement to law enforcement. Our justice system says that the innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt. Unfortunately because of that justice system there is no justice for Caylee Anthony. I believe what went wrong in the Casey Anthony case is as follows:…
Issues: In this scenario a student maintained residence in the town of Trenton, a community that does not have a high school. Students from this area are able to enrolled in Ellsworth or MDI high schools, however, due to behavioral issues the student was placed in a more restrictive environment in Bangor (Parent v. Trenton, 1999, p.2). During the spring of the 1998-1999 academic year the student returned home without “notifying the Trenton School Department of the student’s self initiated change in residency/educational placement” (Parent v. Trenton, 1999, p.2). The student was denied enrollment in both of the available high schools due to his/her intended date of enrollment, and failure to pass a background check (Parent v. Trenton, 1999, p.5). Interestingly, the issues addressed in this case do not consider the lawfulness of the schools’ denial for enrollment, but instead focused on Trenton School Department and if it sufficiently provided the student…

Have you ever thought about what you would do if you had to fight for your life against an attack from a person you considered your wife or boyfriend? That is probably an answer only the person that has had to fight for their life can answer or is it just an excuse to kill. This is what the trial of Jodi Arias is about in Phoenix, Arizona; the slaughtering of Travis Alexander, Jodi’s lover whom she stabbed to death 27 times, slit his throat from ear to ear, and finally shooting him in the face because she said, “she was…
“The prosecutors painted a picture of Casey Anthony as a promiscuous party girl,unconcerned with her missing daughter, and responsible for her murder(Biography.com editors)” Which is exactly what she was. But no one knew if she really was responsible for her daughter's murder or not. “All the defense had to do was create a reasonable doubt and that's what they did.(Today.com)” It was hard telling how Caylee was killed with little evidence.

The Terri Schiavo case is very disturbing to me. I understand a family choosing to remove life support when someone is determined to be brain-dead but removing a feeding tube seems like a whole different issue. Essentially, a person is being starved to death. I realize that Terri Schiavo was basically in a vegetative state, but it still seems like a harsh thing to do. I have mixed feelings on this topic in general. I can’t even begin to imagine how her parents felt, especially since they were opposed to the feeding tube being removed.…

Facts: Kyle John Kelbel was convicted of first-degree murder, past pattern of child abuse, in violation of Minnesota state statute section 609.185(5) and second-degree murder, in violation of Minnesota statute 609.19, subdivision 2(1). He was sentenced to life in prison for the death of Kailyn Marie Montgomery. Kelbel appealed, and argued that the district court failed to instruct the jury that it must find that the state proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the acts that constituted the past pattern of child abuse and he also argued that the evidence against him was insufficient to prove past pattern of child abuse against Kailyn. Kelbel testified that the head injury of Kailyn was inflicted by a cup thrown at her head by step brother Evan. Kelbel also testified that other injuries found on Kailyn were caused by Evan and that he is "rough" with her. Medical examiners ran an autopsy on Kailyn's body and determined that the injuries had been caused by blunt trauma and force caused by a knee or fist. Medical examiners testified that the injuries caused could not have been caused by a cup thrown at her head or by an accidental fall down the stairs. Kailyn's mother, Lindsey, also testified that Kailyn had previous injuries that she became concerned with. Upon retrieving a search warrant, police entered Lindsey's home to find further evidence. Police found a dent in the wall near Kailyn's bed. After Kelbel was eventually found guilty of the charges brought, Kelbel filed a motion for a judgement of aquittal and for a new trial on the grounds that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction. The district court denied the motion.…
