I haven't seen anything about Casey Anthony that would cause me to believe anything she said. Her parents are seemingly responsible people - respected employees in professional jobs all their lives, homeowners, taxpayers and responsible citizens who the public has reason to believe due to their reputations, judgment and credibility; while their daughter seems like someone who just lived off them her whole life, lied to anyone and everyone get what she could and is now using them to save her own skin. Am sure the parents weren't perfect but so far they seem far more reputable than their daughter.

What evidence of credibility or any reason to believe Ms. Anthony as opposed to her parents can the defense offer in response to the prosecution's case? While it is said the defense does not have they same burden of proof, they are going to have to offer something of substance for jurors to believe Casey Anthony. I can't believe the defense attorney spent the time he did talking about a snake and the picture of a snake! That kind of attempt to obfuscate and blow smoke will likely be judged by any reasonably prudent lay person in that jury to border on the ridiculous rather than a believable defense of his client. It would make the think it is just a "kitchen sink" attempt to defend the defenseless. He'd better have more than he's indicated so far if he expects to get her off and it looks like he is going to have to put his client on the stand for sure.
