Angry comments flood the Internet

‘The seven women and five men who found Casey Anthony not guilty of the murder of her 2-year-old daughter Caylee declined to discuss the verdict that stunned court watchers.
‘Judge Belvin Perry, who presided over the trial, ordered that the jurors’ names be barred from being made public until further notice.

‘”We are not releasing their names at this time. They are asking you to respect their privacy,” Karen Levey, the director of due process services for the Orange County circuit court, told a swarm of reporters waiting to hear from the jurors. “They are just not interested…a universal, unequivocal no.”…’
