Every few years, there is a case that captures the attention of the entire country. This time it was the Casey Anthony murder trial. I thought I was the only person really following the trial until I went on Twitter or Facebook. Everyone had suddenly become lawyers and everyone had an opinion. What surprised me the most was that people from other countries were also following the trial. My best friend's boyfriend, Billy is a student at the Disney study program. He along with a bunch of international students would watch this trial daily. They would then discuss it with their friends and family in their perspective countries. Billy tagged me and others from England in the photo below. The caption was "Got to love the American justice systems subtlety." The conversation that pursued was very interesting.
Although I wish this case was not the one to get the attention of the world, I am glad that young people became interested in recent news and the judicial system.
