Nancy Grace Dusts Off Her Shtick, Weighs in on Conrad Murray

Did you think that having Nancy Grace distracted by Dancing With the Stars would keep the mouthy talking head from weighing in on Dr. Conrad Murray and his role in the death of Michael Jackson?

When not busy flashing her boob at middle America on the ballroom dancing competition, the former prosecutor likes to spend her time second guessing the decisions of juries for all and sundry on her cable news show. Grace, 52, has made a second career of subverting the presumption of innocence in the courtroom, furthering the belief that considerations like due process and rule of law are silly constructs standing in the way of putting the guilty, guilty guilty in jail, regardless of what evidence we the viewer may or may not be privy to that was presented at trial.

While Nancy Grace has always been a blowhard, she took special delight in the trial of Casey Anthony, parking her shouty sideshow right on the corpse of little Caylee to incite outcry and unrest as the legal circus dragged on. Grace’s brand of fear and hatemongering is not unique, but she is one of the few commentators on such shows with the distinction of driving a person of interest to suicide with her haranguing pseudo cross-examinations.

So Grace took time out from her new reality show gig to weigh in on another verdict, this time in the verdict handed down by a jury in Murray’s case. While the private doctor to Jackson was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the pop star’s overdose death, Grace again called into question the court’s decision, speaking for God as well as the court in opining:

“God is going to get him… He’s going to be miserable. He can run but he can’t hide. He and Casey Anthony can have a tea party when he gets out in four years.”

She further commented:

“I don’t think [the guilty verdict is] fair. In fact, I think that he should have gotten murder one with propofol as a deadly weapon, and should have spent life behind bars.”

Do you find Grace’s torch and pitchfork schtick a bit tiring? Would you prefer juries have the discretion to do their jobs without the interference of those not privy to courtroom proceedings?

  1. She should have been taken off the air after she ruined the lives of the since vindicated Duke lacrosse team. She had them tried, convicted, and crucified in the court of public oppinion, and the charges were dropped. But it was kinda fun watching her flip flop on waht was necessary to convict, then what wasn't (DNA).

  2. I am so sick of her. She tries to "know it all" when she clearly is simply an opinionated loud mouthed woman who happens to have a talk show. Let's vote her off the island.

    Well, thank God they invented remote controls on TV's so you can change the channel…good grief, get a grip people: why do you incessently listen to someone you so vehemently claim to hate? If you don't want to hear her, then change the channel and watch/listen to someone or thing else….sheesh! I'm not a big NG fan, but doesn't she have 1st amendment rights like all the rest of us?

  4. The 1st amendment does NOT cover cases of slander or libel. And she is one of the most slanderous people on the planet.

  5. Believe Conrad Murray, was covering up for Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson did enough damage to himself with all the plastic surgery, and drugs. Conrad Murray became the VICTIM instead. The delay was strictly trying to cover Michael Jackson's intake of drugs, etc.
    That is the only thing Conrad Murray may be guilty of, is covering up for Michael Jackson.

    Jimi Moore–well, if that's the case, then why hasn't she been sued and thrown in jail? She's just a big blowhard like Chris Matthews….blowing smoke out his a**…

  7. You people are not God, who in the hell do you think you are? Well when your kids ever come up missing, Nancy will be the one to find them. And if she wins on dancing with the stars she is loving enough to give it to the exploited and missing children. She like everyone else has an opinion. I love her. She is such a heart felt and loving woman. Hell she has so much sympathy for all victims, she breaks down it tears every single time. Every person who breaks the law deserves what is said by her. I am always on her side. You people just need to get a life. Jealous is all your are, wishing you had her show. Keep up the bad ass job Nancy live ya!

  8. Jimi Moore That's why she never gives "Fact" and always mounts her soap box with pure opinion, it's not slander or libel that way, it's the same thing Beck, O'Reilly and others do to avoid those types of issues.

  9. She needs to tone it down… a lot! I used to like her show until the Casey Anthony trial… she went way too far with that. Since then, she's been plain annoying. But I REALLY can't stand that Jane Velez-Mitchell… She's such an annoying, loud-mouthed, know-it-all. She looks like someone I'd like to slap.
