That's great!!!
I wish to comment on the Anthony Murder case. Poor Little Caylee!!!
three things to ponder
1. What if Cindy 'had' given Casey another day, as heard in the 911 call
2. What if Casey 'had' confessed to Cindy about the accidental death
3. And last, but not least
what if Casey had a 'real' lawyer??
(raw hamburger meat, R U Kidding me???)
Let us not forget Little Caylee, may she rest in peace.
Dr. Drew, I hope that in the end, Casey gets LIFE behind Bars. The needle would be too good for her. I
hope she spends the rest of her days looking over her shoulder, in General Population. Pat fr Canada
The lady investigator on Weekend Mysteries is such a terrible actress that I can't watch that show for longer than 2 minutes. I watch every mystery show on tv, but can't get through that one. The other people are fine, the layout of the show is good, I even like the narration. Please just change her and the show will be better.
