I haven’t written much about the criminal law case that’s been scintillating — and then enraging — others around the country, the Casey Anthony case.
In the beginning, it was a combination of being too busy for that, and recognizing that whatever I saw on the news was likely to be sensationalized and full of erroneous and perhaps even deliberately misleading information.
As time went on, it became clear to me that there was another reason not to watch: ancient Rome was never one of my favorite “civilizations” and the Colosseum most likely would have disgusted me.
