[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Burke really is the only explanation that makes sense. I don't think he was trying to kill her. They might have been arguing and he just spontaneously grabbed the flashlight and hit her. She could have appeared dead, so maybe when they realized she wasn't, they strangled her so she wouldn't suffer, knowing she would die anyway. They could have told their friends what happened and their friends helped cover it up, not wanting the Ramseys to lose both children.

But, I don't know. you would think they would call 911 after finding she was still alive, no matter how grim her condition seemed. The contraption they used to strangle her also makes no sense. Unless that was something that had been made previously and just happened to be nearby, so they grabbed it? And the ransom note also makes no sense. The only scenario in which the note makes any sense is if the killer was someone outside the family (Santa) and they were forcing Patsy to write it. Maybe it really was going to be a kidnapping and something went wrong after the note was written, but the kiler threatened to kill the rest of the family if they didn't stay quiet?

This does make sense, but the problem is this would imply that this was an accident staged as a murder, and what the evidence shows is that this was a murder staged as a sex assault/kidnapping.

There is no evidence anything accidental happened. No fall, no tumble down the stairs. The blow to her head is what killed her. The chances of her having a soft blow to the head that was an accident in the exact same place as the brutal blunt force object doesn't make sense. So the accident theory has a hard time holding up.[/quote]

JonBenet could have picked up one of Burke's new Christmas toys which made him mad.  He could have grabbed the flashlight and hit her with it not intending to kill her but to get her to drop the toy.  It would be an intentional accident, an accidentally on purpose sort of thing.

I don't think that anyone is saying that the parents or brother would have plotted to kill JonBenet.  If the killer was a family member, I don't think that there was any intention to kill her.  They struck her out of momentary and highly uncharacteristic anger.  The preceding days had been very busy, there was still packing to do, loading up of the car, etc. I'm sure that everyone was a bit overtired - especially the kids.

I guess. It was a brutal hit with a heavy object though. My kids fight - they push and save. It is hard for me to picture a[b] boy with no history of violent behavior[/b] (or future, now that we have 20 years of hindsight in our favor), to be this brutal with this sister. Hit her, kick her, shove her, slap her, pinch her, yes. Bash her head with a heavy flashlight? It is possible, but still a long shot.[/quote]

He had bashed her with a golf club in the past, sent her to the hospital[/quote]

He was outside hitting  balls when he swung the golf club back and clocked her on the cheek.  It wasn't a deliberate blow, it was accidental.[/quote]
