A jury found Casey Anthony not guilty of murder, aggravated manslaughter of a child and aggravated child abuse, but guilty of four counts of providing false information to law enforcement.

The charges stemmed from the death of her her two-year-old daughter Caylee in 2008.

Members of the defense team were not kind to the news media during a news conference after the verdict was read.

“I hope that this is a lesson for those of you who have indulged in media assassination for the past three years.”

“Lawyers from coast to coast have been blasting the entire process, and unqualified talking heads for discussing this case that they don’t know a damn thing about.”

“Caylee has passed on far, far too soon.”

“Casey did not murder Caylee, it’s that simple. Our system of justice did not dishonor Caylee with a false verdict. You cannot convict someone until they’ve had their day in court.”

Defense lawyers admitted on the first day of the trial that the 25-year-old single mother had made up a complex web of lies. Defense attorney Jose Baez said that the truth was that Caylee had accidentally drowned in the family pool and instead of reporting her death, Casey “went into a dark corner, to pretend as if nothing was wrong.”

Baez said Casey Anthony behaved that way because she had been “trained to lie” through years of sexual abuse by her father. Judge Belvin Perry ruled, however, that there was no evidence that Casey Anthony was abused by her father and ordered that it not be mentioned in closing arguments.

Caylee’s body was found in a swamp six months after she disappeared. It was so badly decomposed that the medical examiner could not determine exactly how she died.

Caylee’s cause of death was listed as a “homicide of undetermined means.”

Much of the case turned on forensic evidence, labeled “fantasy forensics” by the defense team.

Prosecutors brought in experts in “the smell of death” to prove that an odor in the trunk of Casey Anthony’s car was that of human decomposition. A hair and fiber analyst testified that a piece of hair was found in the trunk that belonged to Caylee, and showed the dead body had been in the car.

Anthony’s lawyers argued that the foul smell in Casey Anthony’s car trunk was from rotting garbage, not a rotting body.

The prosecution also claimed that Casey Anthony used the family computer to visit a site on how to make chloroform 84 times, a fact the defense team tried to blame on Casey’s mother.

The jury found Anthony guilty on four counts of lying to police. Sentencing is scheduled at 9 a.m. Thursday. Meanwhile she remains in jail.
