I don't mean to diminish the tragedy of the situation - a woman and her kid are dead - but why is this case being covered so intensively, and why are we debating it here? It's one criminal case that really doesn't have any bearing on any of our lives. I'll admit to a morbid fascination with the case when it first broke, but after I realized how hard the media were flogging the damn thing I got disgusted - the only reason this is still being discussed is because it's sensationalistic, bizarre, and the media won't let it go and are painting it as some kind of "trial of the century." Bah. Regardless of the outcome of the trial, we're not likely to ever know the truth, and even if we did, WOULD IT MATTER? Hardly.
Go read a good book.
