I find so many things about this case to be baffling.
1) If it was not the family, WHY would the kidnapper use Patsy's notepad to write that long letter inside the house? If you were kidnapping a kid for money, wouldn't you have the note written already -- maybe typed and printed to avoid handwriting detection -- and bring it with you?? 2) If they really believed their daughter was kidnapped and the note was real, wouldn't they have delayed calling the police, at least a little bit, as the note clearly said not to? 3) If Patsy was at all involved, why did she do a national TV interview drugged up out of her mind? Wouldn't she have been terrified she'd let something slip? 4) How did the note-writer, if not the family, know to ask for the exact amount of money that John had received in his bonus? 5) If Burke killed her and the family tried to cover it up with the ransom note, why would they do all the creepy stuff to her? Why not dump her outside somewhere? So many things make me believe there's no way it could NOT be the Ramseys, but then other things make me believe that it has to be them. I just have NO IDEA. |
A sadistic killer who just wants to mess with everyone, that’s who. Not a normal suburban housewife. She didn’t write the letter then go violently and maliciously murder her daughter. |
But why would you take paper from their home and sit in the house and write it?? And risk being caught? That's just crazy. |
These posts always strike me as so dumb. People assume someone willing and able to abuse and murder a young child is somehow in all other areas someone who will act sanely and rationally and thoughtfully. How dumb. |
Yes, yes a person who murders a small child is crazy. Yes |
He doesn’t seem to be a stranger, knowing the bonus amount. Maybe he was in the house previously and grabbed the paper as he planned his crime. |
What if the normal suburban housewife IS a sadistic killer? |
And wrote drafts on the notepad while at their house? No. |
I don't understand why everything thinks she obviously wrote the letter. When I look at the two letters, they don't look all that similar to me. I mean, they are not impossibly different, but both within the realm of "average, normal" handwriting where I'm sure a LOT of people's handwriting would fall close to/between these two samples. |
A lot of the lines on the note and the concept of the note itself came from a play called The Prime of Miss Jane Brodie, which Patsy had recited as part of her pageant performances. Including the concept of a fake note, intentional masking of handwriting, intentional misspelling of "possession" in the exact same way, and "attache case." It's a pretty obscure thing to reference and be a coincidence. |
What if you were the killer? |
While at the house? Says who? |
There was no prior abuse whatsoever at all and no signs of her having any pathology, and she was a devoted mother and cancer survivor. But suddenly she’s a sadistic killer? |
That’s a huge huge leap. I can’t believe how silly people are about this case. |
PP--do you have any other insight you could share? |
