Vote: Which High-Profile Case Are You Most Interested In? America loves court trials. Whether it's O.J. Simpson on trial for murder or Rod Blagojevich on trial for selling a Senate seat, as long as there's a judge on the bench and two opposing attorneys, people will tune in to the news or click on a website to find out what happened.

Roger Clemens' perjury case began Wednesday, and not a moment to soon for our litigiously obsessed society. Clemens is accused of lying to Congress in 2008 when he adamantly denied using performance enhancing drugs.

"Let me be clear," he told a House of Representatives committee. "I have never taken steroids or HGH."

One of the most high-profile cases in years wrapped up Tuesday, when the jury reached a not guilty verdict for Casey Anthony, who was charged with killing her young daughter. In Boston, James "Whitey" Bulger's trial for his alleged role in more than a dozen killings is just about to get under way with Bulger's not guilty verdict Wednesday. And in Arizona, a judge ruled in May that Jared Lee Loughner, who is accused of the attempted assassination of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, was unfit to stand trial.

No matter how you feel about Clemens' drug use, Anthony's acquittal, Loughner's unfitness to stand trial or Bulger's many alleged crimes, chances are you're intrigued by at least one of them.
