re: #6 marjoriemoon

The burden of proof is the same in all those individual counts; beyond a reasonable doubt. The lies to the police about the existence of the nanny that didn’t exist were provable and that’s where the jury convicted.

They simply didn’t find the rest of the prosecutor’s case sufficiently convincing.

Maybe the DNA evidence was sufficient for conviction with a different jury makeup or not. We’ll never know about that.

Clearly, this jury didn’t find the evidence sufficient for the murder convictions and all the yapping by talking heads doesn’t matter. The only thing that mattered was what evidence was seen by the jury - not what some lip-reader on Nancy Grace thinks Anthony said (for example). The jury wasn’t considering that or anything other than what was entered as testimony and evidence.
