Send us a textTRIGGER WARNING-  For those of you who do not know, this case involves the death of a beautiful, smart, precious, not even 3 year old little girl, and her piece of trash narcissistic egg donor; Casey Anthony.This episode is kinda of, filled with a fair amount of rage...I am angry at the jury, I do not like Jose Baez, and I hate Casey Anthony.  Even, just writing up the description for this episode, evoked a rage in me.  So, if you are one of those folks who send us emails, about not liking the swearing in the pod.... this may not be a good one for you. I did the best I could, considering the demon that I am speaking about.In 2008- 22 year old Casey Marie Anthony, made headlines, after authorities learned that her, nearly 3 year old daughter Caylee had been missing for 31 days. According to Casey, Caylee had been taken by her nanny of- between 1.5-2 years; Zenaida Fernadez Gonzalez.  Casey would say that Zenaida, or 'Zanny the nanny' as she would come to be known, would tell Casey that she does not appreciate what she has, leading Casey to believe, that she had taken her daughter, to teach Casey a lesson, for being a bad mom......... but there was only one problem with that........  just kidding, there is literally 50 problems with that!  Casey lies about absolutely EVERYTHING, but never thinks past the initial lie!!So, why in 2011 was she acquitted of 1st degree murder, aggravated child abuse, and aggravated manslaughter??  enter: Jose Baez- a new criminal defence attorney.  Had only been an attorney for about 5 years at the time that Casey's trial took place.  And, don't worry, I read his book: PRESUMED GUILTY, so that you don't have to.There is no denying Jose is great at what he does.  Right away, he will show the jury everything that the prosecution is going to show them, trying to get a conviction,  and he will down play all of it.  He also plants a different idea of something that COULD have happened, regardless of if he pulled that theory straight out of his ass or not.. and it didn't hurt that they had to pick a jury of 12 people who hadn't watched or read the news, or flipped through a magazine in 3 years...  they wanted jurors, who did not have a preconceived notion on Casey's guilt or innocence  (IMO- idiots.  but what do I know...)We will also go through the most recent documentaries; Peacocks 3 part interview with Casey herself...  what a smouldering heap of trash that was.And even more recently, George and Cindy (Casey's parents) in 2024, watched and responded to the Peacock documentary, and Cindy finally has some hard hitting words Casey.Both part of this will be available right away on our patreon,  but if you need a breather between them, part 2 will be up next Tuesday.Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

Scott explains his decision to write the book and why this may be the last time we see Rusty as a protagonist in one of his novels. He also shares the reason that he chose to make Aaron a young Black man who was adopted by white people. Scott and Carol talk about the mantle of “accused murderer” and what that means to a person, which is something that two of his characters share. Carol notes Scott's very in-depth courtroom scenes, which leads to a discussion about their significance for the reader, as well as the topic of how justice may or may not be served according to who is on the bench, who is prosecuting and who is defending.

Home Seeking by Karissa Chen. This is one of those big, epic sweeping stories which starts in one place and finishes up a long way away. Suchi and Haiwen are good friends and then teenage lovers in Shanghai during the Civil War. When Haiwen volunteers to go and do National Service (a gesture he makes so that his brother won't have to) they lose track of each other. Life and the years then intervene so that it's sixty years before they recognise each other in Los Angeles and slowly start to re-establish their connection. There's a lot to this book – about identity, families, finding a place in the world and what one might have to sacrifice in order to do that. Presumed Guilty by Scott Turow. In 1987 Scott Turow wrote Presumed Innocent, which knocked my socks off at the time – it was so, so good. Some years later he wrote a second book, Innocent, but here's the one I've been waiting for which captures the essence of that first one all these (38!!) years later. Rusty Sabin is now older. Over the course of his career he's been a prosecuting attorney, a judge, and even a defendant and convicted felon. Now he's essentially retired, living in a small town and settled in a great relationship when suddenly all that is threatened when the son of his partner is accused of murder and Rusty steps up to help out. Great family and courtroom drama – the first in this series predated John Grisham by 4 years. Scott Turow really was a trailblazer and he's still going strong.

Here at the Murder Sheet, we are huge fans of the author Scott Turow. His first novel. Presumed Innocent, came out back in 1987 and introduced readers to the lawyers of Kindle County. In the years since, Turow published many more novels- rich and gripping legal thrillers, each one well worth reading.Even if you haven't read any of his books, you still may have met some of his characters. Presumed Innocent was made into a successful movie starring Harrison Ford and- just last year- was also adapted into a television series on Apple Plus. That story focused on Rusty Sabich- who was facing a murder trial for the death of his lover. Turow returns to Rusty's story in his latest novel, Presumed Guilty- and you don't need to have read any earlier novel in order to appreciate it. Now a much older Rusty has settled down in a rural part of his state. He seems to have found true love. But there's a pretty big complication- the African American son of Rusty's partner is charged with murdering his girlfriend-- and he wants Rusty to defend him in court. A Scott was kind enough to take the time to talk with us about the new novel. the stresses of trial work and how a prosecutor knows when he's ready to move into criminal defense.

The 1999 examination of the JonBenet Ramsey case was the only book to suggest something other than the two conventional scenarios: one of the Ramseys killed the child or an intruder did it. "Presumed Guilty" broadened the discussion to include the involvement of child pornography/child exploitation around the murder. This electronic version of the book contains significant new information bolstering this theory and will be updated as further developments warrant.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

Episode #194: In the midst of Myanmar's turbulent times, Manny Maung, a dedicated advocate from Human Rights Watch, sheds light on a dire situation. Behind closed doors, a shadowy military court system relentlessly tries civilians without proper legal representation. This injustice has escalated to an unprecedented level since the coup, eroding the foundations of democracy and rule of law.The Myanmar justice system, rooted in colonial-era penal codes, has never embraced fair trials. Now, it operates entirely at the whims of military leader Min Aung Hlaing, undermining the very essence of legality. Lawyers valiantly defending their clients often face harassment, and are not immune to threats of detention and even torture, adding immense stress to their lives. Merely attempting to defend a client who the state has accused may land them in contempt of court.The judiciary, once on a path to independence, has regressed under the military's grip. Arbitrary arrests, the state of emergency's dubious renewals, and sham elections are orchestrated to consolidate the regime's power, while neighboring countries lend support.Recent sanctions, though effective to some degree, are not substantial enough, allowing the military to find a way around them. Maung calls for more stringent measures, including a Global Arms Embargo and action against Myanmar Oil and Gas Enterprise.Amid these harrowing circumstances, the Rohingya suffer more than anyone. They remain stateless, trapped in apartheid-like conditions, with no justice for the atrocities committed against them.A multifaceted approach is needed to limit the military's capacity to oppress. Maung asserts that international support can be directed to reignite Myanmar's democracy movement, offering hope for a brighter, post-junta future.Though darkness looms, hope remains the beacon guiding Maung and others fighting for Myanmar's freedom. “Myanmar will have a lot of problems, you have a generation now that is very used to extreme violence, let alone the trauma and the types of violence that they've been exposed to. But there's also some hope in starting from the beginning, perhaps if we can actually move towards somewhere that doesn't have the military as part of that underlying fabric of society, then I think we can get to a better place.”

Inquiry, Hunter subpoena, IRS sued, Biden at UN, Ukraine is failing, presumed guilty and what about clouds?

Today's show opens with a reminder that even if you want to dismiss all other suspicious activity reports and money laundering schemes, there is more than enough evidence surrounding the actions Joe Biden took in Ukraine while Hunter was on the board of Burisma to warrant impeachment. Adding to this, Speaker Kevin McCarthy has issued a subpoena for records and for testimony from Hunter Biden. At the same time, Hunter's lawyers are suing the IRS and the two whistleblowers for making Hunter feel bad about his private life being exposed. As if public testimony under oath in someway warrants a lawsuit. President Biden gave a speech today in front of the United Nations General Assembly. What an amazing collection of nonsense and America-last comments. It's embarrassing to see him on the world stage, incapable of even reading the speech someone else wrote for him. Next I bring up a few stories centering around the now failing concept of the rule of law. ABC Nightly News ran a breathy BREAKING story that Donald Trump used to write notes and to-do lists on papers and folders containing classification markings. We've come a long way from having and selling nuclear codes and secrets to scratchpads! The Texas Senate exonerated Attorney General Ken Paxton on all 16 charges and then the Lt. Gov. gave the House a tongue-lashing for even bringing the impeachment in the first place. There was no evidence, only strong belief. They really, really, though the AG had been bad and that's all it took. In this same vein, Russell Brand is now being de-platformed, canceled and de-monitized for a rape accusation. Let me be clear, I am not saying he is innocent or guilt. I am only saying, he should be afforded the presumption of innocence. There are no formal charges at this point, only a story that broke in two newspapers. At the very least, we ought to let the system play out, right? The economy isn't looking good and even CNN had to run a story about the rising cost of gasoline. On top of that, our border is being overrun worse than ever, having already exceeded 8 million illegals and more still pour into our nation. The Democrats are doing this on purpose because they want a permanent underclass. So, while they are letting this happen, they are also doing all they can to destroy the middle class. The Senate has removed rules for appropriate attire on the floor, allowing the brain damaged Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) to keep wearing shorts and hoodies to work. We have move from meritocracy to catering to the lowest common denominator. Rather than striving for greatness, we are settling for last place. Finally, on a positive front, yet another Nobel Prize winning laureate is pushing back against the CO2 climate hoax. John Clauser points out that not a single climate model takes cloud cover into account. Think about that. Every doom and gloom prediction is based on having a cloudless planet. One might think that is a pretty huge piece of the puzzle they have willfully ignored in their fearporn scheme. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

In Late Edition: Crime Beat Chronicles, we introduce you to the Lincoln Journal Stars' published Presumed Guilty series, an award-winning examination of the case from 2009. Later in 2019, the project was adapted for a podcast, Revisiting the Case hosted by Elizabeth Rembert. This is part two of an abridged rerelease of the Presumed Guilty podcast. We pick up with six people behind bars for the 1985 murder and rape of Helen Wilson. Six innocent people set to serve a combined 70 years. In this episode, find out how things played out in the courtroom, with defendants turning on each other with their testimonies in 1989. Thanks to DNA evidence, the six convicted of the crime in 1989 were exonerated in 2008, and in March of 2023, Gage County completed its payoff to the Beatrice Six (or their estates)-- a total payoff of around $30 million once attorneys' fees were added.  Read more on the case here. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Feb. 6, 1985, in Beatrice, Nebraska, 68-year-old Helen Wilson was raped and suffocated. Loose-ended leads pop up during the investigation, and six people would eventually be charged in her death and found guilty. However, years later, DNA would ultimately turn this case upside down. Those six convictions will be reversed. How could these people confess to a crime they didn't commit?
