In one of the most publicized trials of our time, a Florida jury found 25-year-old Casey Anthony not guilty of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

While pundits dissected the case on cable news channels, a few of our favorite celebs took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the verdict, reports TheYBF.

Terry McMillan tweeted: “Bye bye. I would like to slap Casey hard enough to knock off her ponytail.”

Star Jones, who has a law degree, wrote: “While #CaseyAnthony lives ‘Bella Vita’…her “beautiful life”…a dead baby lies in the ground with no one to be held responsible….I believe in the jury system & accept verdict…but I can’t take smiles from #CaseyAnthony right now. She may be NG…but her baby is dead!”
