They had been at a Christmas party. Were Patsy and John drinking? |

They say no. |
Well, I guess another thing we’ll never know. |
Why is there a balcony in JonBenet’s bedroom? |
Yes this is what happened and Patsy wrote the note. Its not really hard to see this. Unless you think Burke needs to be put in jail at this time, I don't see why this case needs to continue. He's lived a quiet life so just let it go. |

No one claimed that anyone went through the 2 inch window. John had broken it so that he could unlatch the window pull it up and get in. Detective Lou smit, and you can watch the video online, demonstrated how a man his size could easily get through the window. There were no footprints because photographs show a dusting of snow on the front lawn, but there was no snow in the backyard, it had melted at that point. |
But John is out there participating in documentaries asking for DNA to be checked. Why would he do that? |
He knows the crime scene is tampered. They called all the neighbors and their pastor over to the house. Everyone touched JonBenets body and the cops allowed John to do the search of the home, allowing a possible suspect to bring the body to police |
DNA is a very easy way for the family to keep kicking the can along. Any family DNA won’t implicate them beyond a reasonable doubt, which is why they were never charged despite the grand jury indictment, and pushing for “other” DNA discovery will only divert attention away from the family. John is in his 80s and won’t be around forever. He wants to protect Burke and the family from what he perceives was a tragic accident. And perhaps he feels some level of guilt that they were not treating burkes childhood psychiatric issues appropriately and this could have been avoided. |
People who deny she wrote that note are braindead. A real litmus test for hopeless nitwits. |
My theory is that Patsy discovered Burke did it, covered it up on her own, and took the secret to her grave. |
I don’t think you kick the hornet’s nest in order to clear a name. You write a book, like OJ, “If Burke did it” or some nonsense. You don’t keep asking the police to get involved in case they stumble on something that will implicate your son you’ve been protecting for decades. |
Pat is dead. They have no qualms about reopening the case now. She was the most defensive when challenged or questioned about the ransom note. |
I think this is exactly what's going on. |
But Burke is very much alive, presumably living off his defamation settlement. |
