I keep a close eye on justice in America. I’m a huge advocate of the truth. I was raised by a strong mild mannered lady, who warned me early in life to never believe everything you hear and only half of what you see. Born in the era of the JFK Assassination, I learned through my mother that the news can not be trusted, we must believe what is logical and what can be proven. She also taught me never to pre-judge anyone until I know the facts. Also never forget the atrocity of the Salem Trials. I’ve taught my children the same and I am very proud of them when they don’t follow the crowd. I have raised three free thinking individuals. Something that I hope can be an asset in their lives. This is who I am. A hippy at heart, a realist in mind and a constant student of life.
Update: Tuesday, June 21, 2011
I see it is necessary to post a disclaimer as I see it is ASSUMED that my blog which is dedicated to my deceased MOTHER whose initials were “JB” The mission is to make her proud, as I do not believe every word of the press or LE reports regarding this case. It’s my mission to find the truth of the mysterious death of Caylee Anthony and deflate the Media-Ego.
Do you now understand that thejbmission.wordpress.com is not in any way affiliated with Casey Anthony’s lead attorney Mr. Jose Baez! And may I add, are you so stupid to believe a man who has been neck deep into defending his client Casey Anthony would have the time or the energy to run a meager blog??
JB’s Life Lesson 101 – Ask questions first before you assume anything!
ooops, I said that already.
Same here Ina,
I’m glad to read your views on this case. You definitely keep us thinking. Thank you.
Well I think our views are about the same.
Yes, my Mother was a sleuth and very much into the JFK assissination. I picked this trait up from her. We had our own little book club. She recently passed away and I miss her alot. If she were alive, and had computer skills she would pick this case apart. lol
Hey JB — thought I’d “mosy” over …..
Hi Yo Hola!!
Glad you made it. I think I’m going to stop visiting BS’s for awhile. I think I made my point..lol
I think I will do the same JB. This blog has much more interesting stuff! And nicer comments lol.
OMG are you kidding me??? Your website is an Anthony-lovers dream come true LOL. (GAG)
Are you a conspiracy theorist? I hope to God you’re not a parent or in charge of any dependent children. Does your name happen to be Debbie Walker or Debbie Bromley/notthatsmart/”Gracie”/”concerned citizen”???
Enquiring minds want to know
Sorry Shana,
But you’re wrong on all accounts. No one here is as you quoted an “Anthony Lover”. No one here is a conspiracy theorist. And my name is not Debbie or Walker or Debbie Walker.
Or Bromley, Gracie.
I admit I am a concerned citizen just not concerned with people who come to my blog to belittle me or my readers. My blog is moderated to deal with just those type of people.
This is a free thinkers blog which I felt was needed in order to have open discussion without being maligned or ridiculed. If you’ve noticed, name calling and nasty insinuations aren’t tolerated. I’m very proud of that.
Thanks for your comment and it was my pleasure to respond. Try to have a nice day. I know I am.
Counting down the days until Casey is executed………tick tock
buwahahahaha…tock tick tocker tock, who are you, you’re such a crock!!!
oh Andy, oh Andy,
From where have you come,
I’m smiling in my mirror, wagging a monkey thumb,
You sucketh the thumb of the monkey,
Thou knoweth, I see
Because it looks back at you and true,
I see your monkey fleas,
A freckle here and a freckle there,
your half brother and sister,
are outbursting in awe,
Hairs of red,
Hairs of dread,
On bended knee,
You plea,
Oh please oh please JB,
Sayeth you like me.
The voodoo queen of new orleans,
squibbles, snicker snee,
taketh back, goeth where you came,
and Leth the Queeneth be.
Criss cross monkey chit,
Mayeth your days be blithe.
Ala cadabra, chocolate twinkie!
Presto, you won’t be back!
Dear Voodoo Queen of New Orleans, your way with words is both musical and enchanting. Thank you for handling your responsibility with such class and reminding us that the Salem witch trials were nothing to be proud of. Voodoo Queen of New Orleans…I like that name even more than JB Mission.
Thank you very much ZubenElSchemali !!
Ms.JB is a sweet person who is often misunderstood. Most who have met her agree she is an engrossing and inviting person of caliber and distinction which is often overlooked by her colleagues, neighbors and friends.
People who have had the wherewithal to cross her path have remained unscathed and intact in an egotistical sense.
Her in-depth knowledge and utter expertise of the Mission family tree can be found in the Almanac of Best Smartness.
For those who sluice their heads of evil and nefarious materials will rarely gravitate to her spirit and heartfelt endeavors. However she is persnickety with her volumes of tabloid wares which she totes to blogs throughout the World Wide Web.
Most are immune to her wittiness yet are still enthralled by her persona and symptomatic prowess into the murder of Caylee Marie Anthony.
Merry Christmas JB!
Clap clap clap.. OK Voodoo queen of New Orleans..LOL Just read your Nov 7 post as well!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!
Well, I remember that day walking home from school with my big brother. When we walked into the house, my Mom was slouched over the sewing machine desk sobbing and crying. She truly thought Nixon did it. She admitted to voting for JFK because he was handsome. She did teach me to always use your checks and balances when it comes to authority. I really liked Nixon and sat through the whole Watergate thing during high school social studies class. I have a lot of good things to say about Nixon, but in the end, I believe that in his heart, he felt he was above the law. I am not one to believe much in conspiracy theories and I believe that Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK. Yeah, there may have been a shot from the grassy knoll, but I still think it was Oswalds bullet that did the deed. Sitting in a position of power as a business owner and a Town Board Supervisor, I welcome the checks and balances. How can I improve myself or my ways without getting constructive criticism. I am honored to be challenged and corrected. I continue to learn.
What is great about your blog JB, is that people can disagree and share information freely. For that, I thank you..nts
Oops, not sure how to edit, but I am no longer sitting in any positions of power. lol I am an employee now rather than employer and its nice
Hi NTS,
Thanks for leaving your viewpoint on JFK. New Orleans DA Jim Garrison was the topic of the movie JFK. Not sure if you’ve seen it but it takes place in N.O. so I guess that’s why my Mom had so much to investigate..I was a kid, so I thought that’s what all mother’s did. Just like I thought everyone had Mardi Gras.
There’s interesting book “Mafia Kingfish” by John Davis, locally was a best seller you may want to read.
I havent’ decided about the grassy knoll, but I do wonder who sent Oswald to Dallas that particular day. I personally know of a tie between Oswald and Ruby. We can place Jack Ruby, Dallas strip club owner in a strip joint on Bourbon St only weeks before the shooting.
Sadly, I remember succinctly the day JFK was killed. I was sick from school that day so my Mom walked me down to the corner drugstore for cough syrup which was a block away.
As we were walking back home, our neighbors were jumping up and down on the porch, laughing saying “the ni**er lover is dead!” I’ll never forget how tightly my Mom grabbed my hand to drag me home. She started to cry and apologized to me for having witnessed those people on the porch. What a life lesson to learn for a 6yo. Hatred was extremely rampant in the 60s, especially in the South.
After JFK imposed integration…seeing this hatred I believe Oswald was a scapegoat. He was a communist who sympathized with Cuba. He worked in downtown N.O. passing out pamphlets and I think he was approached by the underground mafia to do what they wanted. Keep in mind RFK had mafia kingpin Carlos Marcello deported too so JFK had lots of enemies. Some people even think LBJ was involved. I think the country has about 60 years before we’ll know the truth. That’s when the reports will become public.
Until then, it’s a mystery to me. JFK theorists are still in full force on the web if you ever get bored with the Anthony case…check it out.

Good for you!! It’s nice to be a 9 to 5er, isn’t it.
Hi JB
More about the Versatile blogger award on my blog.
I have nominated you for the Versatile blogger award; hope you will accept but don’t feel pressed
Aww..thank you Ina. I’ll be sure to check it out. That’s very nice of you.
My first thought upon finding your site was that the jbmission must be in some way related to the lead attorney, Jose Baez. I do appreciate the fact that you are taking a somewhat unpopular position. I have been following this case since it first landed on the national media radar. I have spent hours pouring over transcripts and evidence photos and documents. I was amazed that the state of Florida has such liberal policy for public records. My research has left me no doubt that Ms. Anthony is responsible for the death of her child. I do believe one is innocent until proven guilty but in this case, the proof has long been available to those willing to spend the time and effort to examine it. True, that is not the same as evidence presented in a court of law, with all of the inherent restrictions. I would like to know if you have any direct association to any of the “players” in this judicial drama. I would also like to commend you for a well designed and written website. I do feel your bias is not subtle, neither is mine. If you are interested in responding, I would be interested in knowing how this site came to be.
Best wishes for your endeavor and hope for justice for Caylee, whatever that may be.
Hi just wondering,
It’ll be my pleasure to explain how this site came about. First off, surely you read my “about” post so you have an idea I’m from New Orleans, I’m proud to be a Katrina survivor as well. I come from a good family with good values. I’m the proud daughter of a woman whose initials were JB. She’s the JB I refer to in my screen name “TheJBMission” because she passed away in January, 3 months before I decided to open my own blog. I did this in her honor because I know she’d be proud that I stood up for my own beliefs which are not always popular but they are mine. I’ve raised my children to be free thinkers as well.
I was raised to never latch on to every word that comes from the media and not to prejudge anyone. I think you can agree that the media has played a huge part in this case and most people are highly prejudicial when it comes to Casey Anthony.
I’m a little miffed by your assumptions that I have not spent time and effort to examine this case. I assure you, I have. Obviously, your research has left you with a different opinion than mine. So be it.
Hopefully, you’re not another one of those intolerant, opinionated bigots who clamor me for having a different viewpoint, so to speak. If so, perhaps this will refresh your memory of my 1st Amendment Right under the Constitution of the United States. Here’s the snippet from the book I carry in my back pocket at all times.
I have to say Just Wondering, I’m also taken aback by your assumption that I must be affiliated with “key players” in this drama. The only affiliation I have is with the ACLU who watches over my blog for personal threats that I’ve had to deal with in the past.
That’s the American Civil Liberties Union. My lawyer instructed me to contact them if I continue to have problems.
As you said “Best wishes for your endeavor and hope for justice for Caylee, whatever that may be.” Ditto.

Hi JB,
I am truly sorry that my questions offended you. I certainly meant no disrespect. My intent was to discover what part of this case compelled you to spend so much time and effort, thus the question, not assumption about a relationship to persons directly involved. I found this site after another blogger gave a link to the article on Judge Perry. It seems I should have read that and moved on rather than exploring your other writings. Again, I really am sorry that my words were apparently inappropriate. I also repeat the thought that yours is a “well designed and well written website”. Peace.
Nice to meet you! I stumbled across your page by accident and I am glad I did!!! Love your “Mission Statement” and will be a regular vistor!!!!!
By the way, please feel free to join my “secret group” on Facebook. I created this because we were all over on the Wftv Orlando Page. Our posts were being deleted and there was something funny going on. We came to the conclusion that it must have been Cindy Anthony complaining about what we were saying, resulting in the posts being deleted. I beleive in Freedom Of Speech and it wasn’t right. Send me an email at tobesolucky47@yahoo.com if you would like to join us, we would love to have you! If not, that is o.k. too! Take care!!! I was also born in the JFK era, 1962!!!!
Hi Teri,
They keep us open to other viewpoints which is great.
Nice to meet you! I’m shocked to hear your posts were being deleted. You do have a right to assemble and peacefully discuss anything of your choosing on the web. Perhaps this a Facebook rule that disallows certain content on their network? Or it could have had something to do with cyber bullying. Not long ago there was a teenager who committed suicide because of the horrible things people were saying about her on Facebook. Maybe that has something to do with it..I’m just guessing. But thanks for sharing.
Wordpress has been more than generous with allowing me to exercise my 1st amendment rights. I think if you opened a WordPress blog, you’d have no problems.
The only problem I have here is that the fanatical Casey Anthony Haters harass me personally for stating my views. When I first opened this blog, I welcomed everyone. I hoped for mature, respectful debate and discussion but within a month I was badgered. They began to use words like stupid, ignorant to facts, Baby Killer Lover, and worst. I soon found out that having a difference of opinion as to Casey Anthony’s guilt was almost like supporting the Anti-Christ.
This is when I changed my policy and preferred to discuss this case with people who leaned more to Casey’s innocence like myself. As you probably know, sites like mine are few and far between whereas the pro-prosecution sites are rampant.
Some of the nice people who comment here were the ones who were insulted and ridiculed on other sites such as WFTV. They joined us for a safe haven. There are a few pro-prosecution commenters here who join us in discussion. They’re the ones who ask the probing questions in rational way which is awesome.
Thank you for stopping by Teri. Take care.
JB
JB ,
I knew I liked you before I even realized we has some things in common. I loooove NOLA, rhymes, ,am opposed to the Salem witch trials & see the same mentality through-out the Caylle Anthony Missing Child case & Casey Anthony Murder Trial case.
I know what you mean about freethinkers and bashing commenters. There are some people who will go to extreme lengths to try to shut you down or shut you up. People will investigate you, make fake friendships and posts in order to gain info on other members/commenters. Once they have some info they will use public records to dig deeper into ytheir “enemies” lives. On & on & on….
I appreciate your blog and am glad to see it going strong.
Thank you Internetnewsnow,
I like your site too. Thanks for the heads up.. I’ll keep this in mind.
JB
It looks to me if it’s not About CASEY being inocent.. here the posters are attacked the one man just asked simple Questions that Said he thaught she was GUILTY … and you actually Attcked him .. there is NO Proof your a Woman and your Mother Died and that you Live in New OrleaNS, So i guess we are suppose to take your word for this in this Vurtal World OF Computers…. SORRY , but i need more Proof then this…..As my Opinion Goes its now 11th of June 2011 AND CASEY MURDERED HER DAUGHTER … Then tryed to throw everyone UNDER the bus… all the Lies And theiving and Partying and sexing everyone …… sticking to the nanny story till they found the baby CAYLEE … all this time she knew she was dead….. then comes the Story of sexual Abuse and Accedental Drowning and roy K Stealing the baby and hiding her for the REWARD Money …..and GEORGE THROWING THE BABY.. away NEVER CASEY ANYTHING NEVER NEVER NEVER…. This person i just described here that has been prooven WOULD NEVER do what EVERYONE IS SAYING ……AND by the way the sexual Abuse Another LIE…… She is going Down … When a dog bites Someone there Put Down …. not fit to be around another human (SAME THING HERE ) Dont bother Answering this BLOG Jose B
I Wont be back ……
Is there a particular reason my comments are not being shown? Is it because I have a different view? I thought this site welcomed discussion.
===============================
Sure Just Visiting.. But you don’t like what we discuss do you? LOL It’s ridiculous the way you keep trying to barge into our discussion. What you think, I’m gonna change the discussion for you? You must be drunk on Hater Aide. Come back when you sober up..
JB
Hello Nunna B,
I can live with that…lol
I’m responding…NOT Jose B. Are you really that gullible to believe that Jose Baez has a blog? Do you REALLY think Jose Baez has time for a blog???? Are you kidding me?? I’m not JOSE BAEZ. He has NOTHING to do with this site.
And you’re right..I happen to believe “Innocent until proven guilty” That’s the way we roll in America. That is the Law of the Land. So yes, TODAY Casey Anthony is INNOCENT! Deal with it!.
What do you mean..you don’t know if I’m a woman or a man or IF I live in New Orleans? What does that have to do with anything? I don’t care what you believe. I don’t owe you anything. If you don’t like what we discuss at this blog, then don’t read it. It’s that simple.
I am discovering this blog later in the trial than I wish I had. I am shocked at the rumors that float around. I firmly believed such things like: the duct tape was wrapped twice around her head, the heart sticker was on it, and that it was found attached to the skull. I’m having a hard time understanding how the rumor mill got so out of control now that I watch the trial. It frightens me and I completely understand your Salem Witch Trail analogy.
Thanks for this place. It’s a counter to the rampant problem of too little information being much, much worse than none at all.
I’m off to explore more of your blog but wonder why the media is so incredibly bias? Could it be that any logical minded person stays away from them so we don’t EVER get at the truth?
I too stumbled across your blog. Glad to find a blog with people who also believe that people are innocent until proven guilty. Will definitely bookmark this site.
Thank you Joyce,
I’m glad we gave you some validation in your opinion. We’re not all zealous bigots. LOL
Thanks for stopping by and do come back to comment whenever you please.
JB
For sure. Just trying to figure out how and where to comment on certain postings. I’m a newbie at this. Since I am on twitter, do I just sign in on twitter to follow you and comment that way? Do I need to register on your blog site?
========================
I’m sorry Joyce. I should have answereed you. No, you don’t have to join, just sign on as a guest.
Thanks for asking,
JB
Finally! JB, you are a human been with a mind and a mission. God bless you! I though the entire US was screaming for the blood of Casey Anthony without taking the trouble of rational thinking and logic but of manipulated emotional reactionism. It is a sad state of affair when prosecutors can be trusted with power of life and death when motivated by quotas and personal ambitions at the expense of justice and public service.
My nephew was murdered a few years back (he was an undercover agent working for the police investigating meth labs in Virginia, but I have never heard my family screaming for the blood of anyone without a proper investigation and trial. we would NEVER stand for it.
Below is the statement of a public servant I found recently:
I AM AN ASSISTANT STATE’S ATTORNEY HERE IN SOUTH FLORIDA.THE PROSECUTION HAS NOT SHOWN ANY DEFINITE PROOF THAT THERE WAS A MURDER OR THAT CASEY WAS IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO IT. NONE OF THE ATTORNEYS I KNOW AND WORK WITH CAN BELIEVE THIS CASE EVEN WENT TO TRIAL WITH THE COMPLETE LACK OF EVIDENCE HERE! THIS PROSEVUTOR SHOULD BE DISBARRED AND NOT ALLOWED TO PRACTICE LAW EVER AGAIN.
JOEL GOLDBERG
I rest my case.
Well thank you so much Patrick!
Although we started with maybe 3 or 4 regulars, I’m pleased to say more are coming our way which is a relief because like you, I thought I was the only one.
We’ve been here since March of 2010 with literally 4 bloggers. I want you to know that I’m not a lawyer and have no law experience. All I have is common sense and knowledge from several true crime books I’ve read. After reading the documents, it was obvious to me that the media was not to be trusted. There was no proof that Casey Anthony killed her daughter with chloroform or duct tape. “Murder by Duct Tape?” No, I don’t think so. Not to be cold hearted but no one needs a weapon to murder a toddler. That’s a horrible thought I know but it’s true.
When I began participating on other blogs I was clobbered so the only other thing to do was to open my own blog.
Thanks for sharing this uplifting information. It’s nice to get validation from attorneys who know the law. I’m glad you found us. Please join in when you can.
JB
Hi this is my first time visiting your website, but since the Casey Anthony trial started my aunt has talked non stop about you! You really look in to the trial from a whole different view point and dissect it piece by piece. It brilliant. I have been sitting here reading your archives all day. I truly agree with everything you say on here. please email me!
I see there’s a recess, just started my DVR,,,,,,I guess another public lashing resulted in a 1/2 vaca day for JP….: )
See you later
So glad I stumbled into this site!! I am able to monitor the trial while I work. I record the In Session and HLN programs for my wife and show her highlights in the evening. We have been dumbfounded at the bias and the simplemindedness of the talking heads who obviously are nothing but vultures – making their living off of the death of Caylee. I have been telling at the TV so much that my wife is worried abouy my blood pressure. I especially yell at Ashton. I know he has a job to do but he is such a baby – much like the oldest child in a neighborhood who is used to getting their way all the time. It disgusts me that Perry allows it – ie. ripping open evidence looking for cans with tobacco stains on them, which was not logically good for him, and acting like he had proven some point. I hope there are jurors who hate him as much as my wife and I do.
Anyway, so glad to be here. I dont intend to say much except to voice my agreement. This has been good for my soul to find this community.
===========================================
Thank you Grackle! I’m glad to find another person who feels like most of us. Feel free to vent here when need be instead of yelling at the television. We’re here for you.
JB
I would very much like to read this site as it appears to be interesting, but I am unable to read the dark blue on the dark green background. Do you have another site I can read or direct me to a more user friendly reading site.
Thanks for providing an outlet for all these thoughts and feelings. It is a great website.
Istill want to know who killed the dam snake?? I live here in va and have killed 4 rattlers in my life& they dont die easy
WOW where did all the new folks come from? ITS GREAT;)

Possibly the cache’d version?
The Tide is TURNING!!!
You’re very welcome Nan. I’m glad you like it.
JB
YOU DID IT you held to your beliefs and the jurors agreed!
=====================================
Thank you fuzygenius! So have you..(((hugs)))
jB
I sure wish I would have discovered your interesting website long ago, instead of after the fact. I am going to go back to your initial postings to see how blind I was to what was going on in this trial instead of following the media’s melodious Pied Piper tune, almost to the end. I only started paying attention in detail to this case within the last week of this trial, and I thought Casey was surely guilty of murder. I also mistakenly thought Baez was a totally inexperienced buffoon, his approach and questioning to be erratic and certainly not relative so many times. But I now realize he was absolutely brilliant! He really wasn’t grilling his own “defense” witnesses; he was artistically creating his yet unseen masterpiece canvas. Baez convincingly began to show the flaws of the witnesses, and actually exposed them to the jury as the foundation of “reasonable doubt” through testimonial inconsistencies, perjuries, incomplete or under-educated science, and lastly the States’ tunnel visioned, biased, underachieved mis-investigation, that “just didn’t add up”. Baez’ closing argument, left me totally awestruck. It was like watching the TV program “Columbo”. The facade of the underestimated, lost and rambling detective suddenly morphs into the likes of Sherlock Holmes, revealing his magnificently investigative mind. The complete turn-around, unsuspected triumph, also presented the viewers to an astounding “A-Hah! crescendo climax moment , I don’t think the majority of the trial viewers “get it” quite yet. They seem like a disgruntled lynch mob who lost their rope. I certainly hope we eventually find out “the rest of the story”, as Paul Harvey would say. And I’ll be regularly checking back into your website to see what other tasty fodder for thought you might offer. Thanks for letting me try on your super-duper thinking cap. It seems a bit big for me now, but I’ll work on that. They say whatever gets fed, grows. Thanks for the “brain food” … I’ll be back for more!
========================================================================================
Hi Just Sharin.. I’m sorry I missed your comment on the 5th of July. As you know it was a really big day for most of us here. We’d worked so hard looking for answers, some we found, some we didn’t, regardless most of us were certain the State of Florida missed the boat on this case.
Sadly it was a huge waste of time and money for the good citizens of Florida. I hope something of value was learned from this case.
Thanks for your kind words,
JB

I ffinaly found my way afyter a much needed place to blog. I don’t know what I would havr done without you the last month. The day of the verdict I had to leave, turn off the TV And just think wiythout listening to the talking heads just knowing that they had conned everyone into believeing that Casey was guilty. I didn’t watch anyone talking about it, I couldn’t. Right before leavng my house, my daughter and husband called to tell nme thenews. While getting ready, I was thinking to myself, hopw could they have any evidense thgat Casey was guilty of 1st, 2nd, manslalaughter, AND when theyu threw in 3rd degree, I started believing that the prosecuters knew they didn’t have anything. I’m so thankful for this site. It got me through a lot of fears. I knew she was innocent, but thought that the public oppinion would be her trial Thank goodness for that jury. If you were a juror and sat through all of that trial how could she be found guilty. I hope that you can read this. I canm’t see what I’m writing, butfjust glad to be able to post. I’ve been trying for weeks. : )
ohhh, I see. : ) JB can you help me? lol
Hi lolypop,
I’m glad you found us. We’re been sitting on the fence for quite awhile relentlessly researching documents & evidence that would prove Casey committed murder. We couldn’t find any. I’m proud to say that we were right all along. We didn’t see the drowning coming though but we knew Casey had no motive to kill her daughter. We knew the chloroform was a ruse and of course, murder by duct tape didn’t seem to fit either.
As you referred to the them, the talking heads did a good job of convincing the public of Casey’s guilt. They saw a pretty face and an innocent child to gain a following. Once they had them hooked, they kept feeding them like fish with every lie they could fathom. Truth meant nothing to the media.
This site was a God-send for me. It allowed us to discuss the evidence without gaudy interruptions of propaganda and I’m proud to say that this site attracted some really cool people who are smart and not easily fooled. It’s a great place to chat with nice and respectful people.
Please feel free to join in.
If you’re having a hard time seeing what you’re typing, please try to upgrade your browser. I hope that helps. Thanks again,

I’ve lurked reading your blog for some time with great appreciation and admiration for your insights, fairness, critical thinking and wisdom.
Having some personal experience with being witch- trialed in Texas, while working in State government, I can assure you our constitution is trampled every day by the same herd of people who narrowly think they are defending it. No matter how well one does their job or lives their life, a career can disappear in an instant with a few well placed lies and betrayals, and what people can invent in their own small minds. We live in a dark twisted time, full if ignorance, lack of civility and fear, I was indeed a naive fool to believe in the goodness of people in general and self described ChristIans in particular , As a friend said” Jesus protect us from your followers.” It just takes a learning experience like this to realize how many innocent persons must be persecuted and bullied in out country. What happened to tolerance and compassion.?
Until I read your introduction, I was under the mistaken impression that this was a Pro Jose Baez site as has been reported around the bloggosphere that started during the trial. I now see that this is a well written blog about someone offering her insights into the events surrounding the case of Fl V Casey Anthony.
Many people see this as a case of an innocent woman getting away with a crime. What the case actually is, is an example of how our system of justice, no matter how imperfect, works. A lot of people are angry at the outcome as has always been the case in these high profile cases.
You make an astute point bringing up the Salem Which Trials and that era of history. This seems to be human nature. People tend to jump to conclusions about everything and everybody without taking the time to sit back and look for the facts.
In today’s society we are all in a hurry. As a result of that hurry, the opportunity for mistakes are increased.
This blog offers us to take the time to examine things from a different perspective.
Good Job

Have a good one and cheers!!

I should have gone one page deeper a while back. I clicked off when I saw something I didn’t want to at the time. Short on time that day, I guess…..
Good blog site!

I read your article about my friend Stephanie Hebert. She was my best friend in kindergarten. I will be 40 this year. I still cry when I think of her. I remember a little bit about that day. I think that I am more over protective toward my kids because of her kidnapping. I make a point to tell my kids that I love them if they leave. You never know if it may be the last time you may see them. Thank you for not letting her be forgotten.
Holly Bynum Duplain
Hi Holly, and welcome. Thanks for sharing. I’d like to see this on the page devoted to Stephanie. Maybe JB can move it over there. Please come back anytime. By the way, do you know what her date of birth was? All I know is she was 5 years old.
June 28, 1972.
Zuben, I’m sorry. I was mistaken. Stephanie was actually 5 years old on June 13, 1978 when she was kidnapped that’s why some reports read she was 6 years old.
duh, my bad.
