Anyone else outraged at the verdict? I didn't follow the trial that closely, but from everything I heard on the news, it sounds like she was very lucky to be acquitted. Regardless, I just can't believe she would let her child go missing for a month and not report it. Hopefully, she will get the help she needs.

I'm upset and I think the jury made a mistake, but I'm not entirely surprised. The prosecution's evidence was almost entirely circumstantial and a lot of juries want to see physical evidence. It didn't help that the prosecution was seeking the death penalty, either. I can see why the jury would be hesitant to convict on 1st degree murder considering they then would have had to make a life or death decision (although there definitely was evidence of premeditation). But I would think they would have at least got her on manslaughter.
Also, I think the defense's method of "let's throw enough BS out there to confuse everyone" worked on this jury.
Well, child neglect wasn't a crime she was charged with. By the time the trial started, she had changed her story and admitted she was trying to cover up the "accidental drowning" death, rather than the missing child story.
