They may be quixotic, but not frivolous, especially in a capital murder case.

Also, for what it's worth, I agree with collie3 (?), that the DA was apparently remiss.

Also, for what it's worth, I was not at the time convinced that OJ was guilty. In light of his recent behavior, I'm less certain. Both he and Casey seem kind of stupid, an yet, they confounded everyone.
I feel that OJ was guilty of murder but the defense never proved it. Casey Anthony is a liar but that is all I am convinced of now. She did take part in the cover-up of how Caylee died along with her father. It does sound like Caylee drowned. Negligent homicide, probably, but not murder. JMHO.
