Op here: Damn 20:27 that's insane! Glad you were ok in the end eventhough I'm sure it still freaks you out. |
I use the word "hence" all the time. Are you sure it's not regional? Do you know where the Ramsey's were from? Didn't they come from North or South Carolina originally? I mean, we all use the word "hence", it's very common where I come from. |
Usually someone abducting a child would do it stealthily...why get a paint brush from one room, a suitcase from another, a child from another... then take the child to the basement - why not just take the child out the front door and leave.
Nothing in this case makes sense. |
Agreed pp! That's why it's so damn confusing and hard to figure out where it pretty much ended. |
That's ridiculous. All this proves is that the killer didn't plan out the whole thing ahead of time. And really, you have to be a computer whiz to use words like "instruction" and "electronic"? I have seen better "proof" that the mob killed JFK. |
This is just an excerpt from the website that was posted at the top. The author goes through the whole ransom note with his ideas/analysis. |
what happened. did your family report it? You certainly were not the first victim? Maybe just the one that got away? My point is that people like that do it a lot and there are other victims. |
Of course we reported it. If you'd like to read my details of blundering cops, please see my post in the Behavior of DC Cop thread.
He was charged with another B&E when he woke up two other little girls when rifling through their underwear drawer. He didn't attack them or bring a weapon. That's the only conviction that stuck. I've been able to follow his convictions and he has not been charged with any similar crimes since it happened 20+ years ago. He has some traffic and drug possession violations and failure to pay child support. It's my understanding that pedophilia is not easily cured, so I doubt he given up on his little girl fixation. So, either it was a completely random act or he hasn't been caught again. |
New articles on JonBenet. Apparently the grand jury voted to indict Patsy Ramsey on child abuse.

I think you're missing the point of this story - the point as I read it was that in the heat of the moment, a grand jury indicted, btu that the prosecutor had a cooler head and declined the prosecute, a decision that was later validated by the complete exoneration of the family. I'm not an expert on this case, by any means. And there does seem to be something fishy about it all. But aside from the conspiracy theorists, I think it's generally accepted that the family really did not do it. (unlike Casey anthony, where the consensus is the mother is guilty as sin). |
Honestly, the case was mishandled from the very beginning. Even with the "micro dna" sample that was discovered years later on the underwear, I still think the brother killed his sister and the mother tried to cover it up with the bizarre ransom note. |
And in other current events : there was a 20 month old kidnapped in Jersey. Family name Lindbergh. |
My DH is a police detective (10yrs. experience) and he said that many times, even if people are innocent of the crime that was committed in their homes, they appear guilty because they do strange things. Perhaps the kitchen was a mess, or they had put Jon Benet to bed in dirty clothes, made her sleep in a wet bed, or some other reason. Then, because their brains are not firing well at the moment, they decide to clean up the mess or change the child's clothes. That is the last thing most people would think to do, but when you are under duress and worried that you "look"guilty, you do strange things. Those things in turn make you look even more guilty than you would have if you had just not touched anything. My DHs theory is that someone who had contact with Jon Benet through the pageant world, killed her. That person waited in the home and tried to molest her after everyone was asleep. Had probably done it before. That was why she was wetting the bed. Maybe she fought back, or someone heard something and started to investigate. He killed her trying to cover up what he had done. Left her dead for her parents to find. Then, because Patsy was a very narcissistic and obsessive compulsive person, she cleaned up and changed things around. Because, what if it got out that she wasn't a perfect mother? She probably also wrote the ransom note, because she did not have any good explanation about what happened to her DD. She was in a panic, and she was guilty of something, just not murder. |
Another aspect of the case that made the parents look suspicious was the fact that the parents almost immediately "lawyered up" which is not what grieving parents usually do. So, yes, they looked suspicious. And then the mother died. Just a very tragic story. |
How was the brother eliminated as a suspect? |
