The Verdict
The verdict was handed in on July 5, 2011. The jurors found Casey Anthony not guilty of the charge of murder. The reasons for this would be the lack of physical evidence and clarity from the prosecution.
Her Sentencing
Ultimately, Casey Anthony was sentenced to only four years of prison time. She received a year for each charge of lying to the authorities. Those were the only ones, after all, for which she was found guilty. If she was found guilty of murdering Caylee, she would have been locked up forever.
