- Tara Trask, President of the American Society of Trial Consultants (ASTC) issues statement regarding the Casey Anthony verdict. July 5, 2011
"Casey Anthony Verdict - The American Society of Trial Consultants Supports the Jury System.
The American Society of Trial Consultants strives to support our jury system and we urge others to respect the jury that rendered the Casey Anthony verdict and to respect the greatest justice system the world has ever known. Yesterday the United States celebrated Independence Day. It is a day that we celebrate yearly, yet we often forget its true meaning. One of the most important pieces of our Independence is that we are a country governed by laws. Those laws are overseen by Judges and issues of fact are decided by juries all over this country every day. While some may question the Casey Anthony verdict, the system that produced it is intact."- Tara Trask interviewed on NBC's Today Show-Weekend Edition "
