Exactly R23. It makes all the pieces of the puzzle fit. Even the police "ineptitude" or cover-up. A kid that age is NOT responsible for his deeds. So there was no crime. And anyway, appears to even be an accident, but if he had planned to kill her, still not a crime. He's not compos mentis. It's like a toddler picking up a pistol and shooting somebody - I mean, even if they aim, they don't know what they're doing. And this kid was a dumb 7 or 9 year old - whatever he was.

Even if they knew Burke wouldn't be charged, I can see why his parents would want to shield him from the appalling publicity, that would dog him the rest of his life. Even as a suspicion, it still kind of does.

And I think the police would have gone along with them - or even given them that advice. I think they were sort of prominent people - or in an affluent neighborhood or something. The police dept would have bent over backwards - you know, the good ole boy WASP network. They look after each other.

I thought an amount of money was mentioned that the dad had recently received - a weird detail for the handyman to know. I also thought a handwriting expert had said it was her. And wasn't it on a notebook from inside the house?

Though I guess it could be his notebook that he brought and left there, having already written the note. And there was no break-in but I guess he could have stolen an extra key durig his handyman work.

Oh I can't remember all the details - but I'm still on the Burke-did-it train because it makes more sense to me.

Statistically speaking, you're far more likely to be murdered by a known associate. While stranger break-ins/abductions do happen (think Polly Klaas), it's relatively rare. A family member killed her, the brother seems like a logical choice given what an oddball he is & the parents clumsy attempts to cover it up. Yes, the beauty pageants were weird, but is that any worse than the Dance Mom groups? If it wasn't for their wealth & the beauty pageant thing, we wouldn't even know who Jon Benet was. It would just be another family that gets away with it, but become local pariahs because everyone thinks they're guilty

by Anonymousreply 61October 16, 2022 5:48 AM

R60 It's been so long I can't be sure - but my recollection is they did figure out that the ransom note was written inside the house that night - and a handwriting expert thought it was mom. Sheesh how many years has it been?

But if Burke did do it, he was too young to be guilty of a crime - not to mention he was a neurodivergent 9 year old, not a normal one (again, I think I remember that he was autistic). AGREE with R61.

If Burke did it, it explains why BOTH parents would be on board with protecting him. If one knew or even thought the other one did it, it's hard to imagine they'd stay together, do those interviews, yada yada -- but to protect Burke from the scandal, sure. I mean, I'd do the same. And then quietly get him some help, just in case a psychiatrist could help.

by Anonymousreply 62October 16, 2022 5:51 AM

Also, the police would be on board with just letting people think they were incompetent, drag their feet, etc. A child did it - no good could come out about exposing him to all the publicity -- possibly destroying his life. And dad was a big shot or something, a good-ole boy white man of means, so they'd be even more likely to bend the rules because of the tragic (but not criminal) circumstances.

No sign of breakin, no tracks in the snow, weird details in the note that almost no one would know except mom and dad (how stupid was she with that very lengthy note - what kidnapper would take that amount of time and write an extremely stupid note, making it highly likely he'd get caught... it makes no sense whatsoever.)

The kid was troubled (still wetting bed or putting poop in sister's room? some sick shit - uh, so to speak). The bowl of pineapples they ate. The rough play they'd done before - golf club or something? Freaking out and strangling her with rope?? Oh it's been so long. A kidnapper who wanted to rape her or whatever, would bind her MOUTH and carry her out as fast as he could. Maybe mail a ransom note or have one typed on a stranger's typewriter... I mean, the way it was done points to a very amateurish cover up by a panicked mother protecting her son - and dad going along (likely in shock himself)

Some guy from Germany kidnapped and killed Madeline. Prosecutors in southern Portugal are formally accusing a suspect in the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, a British girl who disappeared nearly 15 years ago while on a family vacation in the southern European country.

A statement on Thursday by the Public Ministry district of Faro, the largest city in Portugal’s Algarve region, did not name the suspect but said they were acting on a request by German authorities and in coordination with English investigators.

In mid-2020, Germany’s police identified Christian Brueckner, a German citizen, as a suspect in the case.

Me and my Brother have debated this over the years. My Brother was a juvenile detective in the town we lived in just south of Chicago during the 1990's He always insists that it was Patsy. The handwriting on the note, and Johns actions, tell him that it was her. He says John covered for her. He saw a lot while he was a JD, and still says it was Patsy. I never quite believed that and still dont. I guess we'll never know.

by Anonymousreply 84October 21, 2022 5:14 AM

R84 I've read many, many books on the case. I agree with your brother. Patsy was very unwell due to her cancer (a type which most don't survive and which wrecks havoc on women's hormones) and aggressive treatment. She was also under high stress due to the holidays--hosting multiple Christmas events, scheduled to travel by plane with her kids early in the morning after having Christmas and Christmas parties the day before, taking care of all those arrangements with no help from John. Also, about to turn the big 40, which is huge for a former beauty queen. With all this and JonBennet wetting the bed and being medicated, Patsy snapped. It's sad. She loved her daughter and no one else was hurt more by her actions. She lived in denial as did the entire family, who couldn't face the tragic situation.

A big problem is investigators on the Boulder PD were incompetent and those same guys are still on the force. Their egos are in the way.

Lou Smith's daughter (the investigator that resigned because he could not endure Boulder PD's stupidity) has secretly collected DNA samples of something like 28 suspdects.

R90- PATSY GOT DAM TIRED OF CLEANIN UP JON BENET'S PISSY BED, AND THREW HER AGAINST THE WALL, KILLING HER ACCIDENTALLY.....BITCH!

Patsy was too fucked up on prescription medication and weak from heavy chemo to go into a physical rage. She was physically and mentally wiped out. JB was her life, she lived through that little girl, as dysfunctional as that was. Her mini-me. She would have never harmed that child. John Ramsey started sexually molesting his daughter when Pasty was out of state receiving chemo/cancer treatments. He is a ' situational ' predator. He continued to molest her when Patsy came home. That night he went too far and hurt her, she was screaming and crying. The neighbors heard a scream that night. He killed her to quieten her and prevent her from telling Patsy what was happening. He also hurt her that night and knew her injury's would probably be discovered. He wrote that note to scare PR into not calling the police. He was trying to buy time to get JB's body out of the house. Had Patsy not immediately called the police he would have dumped her body in some woods or water and blamed the non-existent kidnapper. He had an empty suitcase by a window in the basement, ready to go. He would have walked out of that house with her little body in the suitcase under the guise of leaving to pay the ransom money. But Patsy did call the police immediately, against Johns orders, and ruined his plan. Now why would Patsy have called the police immediately if she had been involved in the murder or even the cover up of the murder? ( I think she was scared of JR that night. His neighbors and friends all said he wasn't acting right.) In nine out of ten cases like this one, it is the oldest male in the family who is the perpetrator. FBI statistics. What father tries to book a flight out of the state within THIRTY MINUTES of finding his murdered daughters body? The police had to tell him that he could not leave. Within one hour of ' discovering ' her body this man had already hired THREE attorneys, one each for him and Pasty and one for his ex-wife. His ex-wife. Let that sink in. His daughter from his marriage to this ex-wife hated his guts and refused to have anything to do with him. Why? It is completely baffling to me that people are still accusing PR and most ridiculous of all a nine year old child of this violent sexual assault and murder. A man did this. A grown man. He was allowed to buy his way out of justice.

I've always though Patsy did it. The very reasons people use to claim that she could not have done it--how tired she was, how unwell she was in recovering from cancer, how much she loved Jon Benet--are the EXACT reasons many mothers kill. Mothers who kill their young children usually do so due to being overwhelmed, tired, and under supported in the home. Patsy was recovering from cancer, unwell, over stressed due to the holidays, and Jon Benet was misbehaving and also a chronic bed wetter (one of the top 2 reasons parents snap and kill young children). It all fits. Patsy was also very upset that Jon Benet refused to wear matching outfits with her to that evening's Christmas party. They argued bitterly over this, as Jon Benet didn't want to wear a matching sweater with her mother. Jon Benet was starting to defy Patsy and not act like her perfect doll and Patsy was exhausted and suffering from lack of sleep.

by Anonymousreply 100October 26, 2022 4:31 AM

I still think Patsy snapped due to the reasons listed above. It wasn't a planned murder. She accidentally snapped and went too far. However, the garrote is a problem for me because it's not something that I would imagine a typical suburban housewife knowing. Unless she were into very kinky sex, and I think they were since Patsy was always making bizarre inappropriate sex talk, according to her maid and even her family. I suspect Patsy and John were into kinky sex play, as in breath play. John could have taught her how to use a garrote for sex purposes--either on her or on him. That's how she knew.

by Anonymousreply 101October 26, 2022 4:35 AM

Patsy used this to stage a crime of another type. It wasn't a sex crime, but she needed to make it appear that way to avoid suspicion. She couldn't handle her husband, her family, or the world knowing the terrible thing she had accidentally done.

No mother , if she accidentally killed her child in a rage, would sexually assault her daughter with a paintbrush then use a garrote on her. Someone used enough force on her skull to kill a 300 pound man. Her skull was violently fractured . That took a massive amount of strength that I do not think Patsy was physically capable of. Nor a slight , nine year old child.

by Anonymousreply 105October 26, 2022 4:40 AM

Statistically, research shows that whenever a young child dies in their own home, the murderer is almost always one of the parents. Mothers often kill or harm their children and use elaborate staging for public sympathy and attention. Think Munchausen by proxy, for example. Now, imagine the bathroom as the site of the fatal head injury--If the angle is just right, Patsy could have easily have accomplished the head injury by picking Jon Benet up and dropping her or slamming her down, perhaps in the bathtub, planning to clean Jon Bennet up after the child wet the bed. But a struggle happens. Think of Jon Benet's head accidentally hitting a metal tub faucet for instance. What if Jon Benet was struggling and Patsy was angry but also trying to clean her up after she wet the bed. They were struggling while over the tub. Patsy might even have lost hold of her and Jon Benet's head crashed down on the faucet as she fell from Patsy's arms, head first into the metal fixture. Patsy thinks her child is dead and doesn't want to admit guilt and panics, and then stages the crime to avoid blame. Keep in mind Patsy isn't an average housefrau but a beauty queen with a vivid imagination, a huge need for public validation, and a history of acting on stage. Acting was what she did for the her "talent" portion of pagents. Much like Munchausen by proxy--where the mother harms a child to get attention and sympathy for the mother who is the abuser of the child.

For years, I thought Patsy did it. Now, I think it has to be John. The stupid ransom note had one goal: to delay Patsy from calling the cops.

What drives me nuts about this case is that even basic facts are disputed. Some sources say JonBenet had been sexually abused long term. Other sources just say it could not be ruled out.

The real question is why the Boulder police refuse to allow the DNA from the crime scene to be tested. They could identify who it came from in a week. Cold cases are getting solved left and right now. Jon Benet's dad. recently publicly pleaded for the police to do this and still they refuse. Why?

The first detective on the scene believes it was John that killed the JonBenet. At the end of this interview she says she believes justice will never be served for the dead girl. And this was in 1999.

The theory that the family sued CBS for said was the family returned from a Christmas gathering at the neighbors and Burke was having a snack of pineapple and milk in the dining room. JonBenet came in and took a piece of pineapple, Burke lost his temper and hit her over the head with a flashlight. He didn't realize the extent of what he had done and jammed his toy train into her neck.

Then the parents realized she was brain dead and thought he or they would arrested and separated for the crime and flew into doing a cover job.

Which that's totally insane. No parent would do a cover job if their child was still alive and it was an accident by the other child. I think Burke got a few million from that accusation but it was an undisclosed settlement.

About a month before Patsy Ramsey died I woke up in a cold sweat from a nightmare where she said “I killed my daughter. “. So matter of fact. What is odd though, I never really followed the case closely….It freaked me out.

Statistically, it's supposed to be John, the father, who killed her. (Fathers tend to be the killers in the family.) I don't think it's Burke and I don't think it's Patsy.

To be honest, I think she killed herself. The pressure of being the daughter of Miss West Virginia 1977 was too much for her to handle. Now can we move on from the subject and get back to our Christmas petit fours and homemade Chex mix!

I've always believed John killed her, especially after watching that clip posted above. The first detective on scene said that John was checking his mail when she was there, before the body was found. She also said that there was evidence of prolonged sexual abuse identified during the autopsy. I bet John just loved attending those kiddy pageants. I'm wondering though, why did they say the ransom note was in Patsy's writing? Did she write it or did John?

An intruder killed JonBenet. The same man who attacked the little girl pseudonymously called “Amy” in her bedroom, two miles away from the Ramseys. The same Camel Blue cigarette butts found outside both homes.

Amy’s father has been outspoken about the complete and total ineptitude of the Boulder Police Dept., including never following up with people at the dance school where Amy and JonBenet both took lessons.

From the article at R146:

“The only difference is my daughter survived,” he added.

Boulder police were “dismissive” and “disinterested,” the dad alleged.

“They were completely uninterested,” he claimed. “They didn’t care about this at all … they would just lie, telling us they’d look into this or that — but they hadn’t.”

by Anonymousreply 147December 25, 2023 11:16 PM

R143, Linda Arndt was the only BPD who responded because they were all at some staff meeting. She was left alone at the scene for a few hours with no backup.

She asked John and Fleet White to search the house. That’s when John found her body and carried her upstairs. Of course all stupid and embarrassing—Arndt asking a family member to search a potential murder scene alone and John for moving the body—but what about all the cops who were sitting around some stupid staff meeting (or more likely at home while on duty on Xmas morning and scrambling to respond)?

The BPD are more than incompetent—they are malicious egoists. Everyone believes it was a family member and the BPD has denied the family justice in the most extreme way. And the total lack of insight into their own motivations and failings. As John said, “they have no discernment.”

John asked his good friend Fleet White to accompany him on that final search of the house. The moment John opened the cellar door he screamed his daughter's name and ran to her side. Which was strange because Fleet later said the cellar was pitch black. There's no way John saw her body from the doorway.

Why does the gay community care so much about this tired old story?

by Anonymousreply 151December 25, 2023 11:46 PM

The longer Sun article that the Post summarizes at R146 is much more damning.

"I'd contact them regularly, asking if they'd looked into this or that and they'd just lie to me.

"We asked to see some mugshots of sex offenders in the area to see if [Amy] or my wife recognized anyone but we were told that wouldn't be any good.

"We asked them to send someone over to make a composite sketch of the suspect using my wife's eyewitness description but they refused.

"The Denver Police Department even offered to help them out with the case but they said they had it covered and they knew what they were doing.”

"But they wouldn't hear anything about this being linked to JonBenet," he continued.

"They didn't seem to be able to get off the idea that someone in the Ramsey family was responsible for her death.”

"The level of incompetence was pretty impressive, but the worst thing was that they were dishonest. I had a number of pretty intense confrontations with the chief of police at the time, who also lied about multiple things - so it was an eye-opener for sure."

The ransom note tells me it wasn't a stranger. No stranger would sit there, that long, writing a note like that. Also, knowing the exact amount of John's Christmas bonus. That note was probably written by Patsy, at John's direction.

by Anonymousreply 153December 25, 2023 11:51 PM

The first line of the note is "Listen carefully!" WTF puts that in a ransom note? Patsy because John was dictating the note to her and she was so frazzled she wrote down his instructions to listen carefully!

Why would John and Patsy include the exact amount of the bonus in their ransom note if they were trying to hide their involvement? The check was on John’s desk. The intruder was there alone in the house for hours.

Why would two otherwise successful, upstanding parents—who’d already raised two adult children suddenly sexually assault their 6 year old with a broken paintbrush and then garrote her to death? And no client or employee from the thousands at John’s company ever had an anecdote even to point to this kind of deep perversion, irresponsibility, bad judgement?

It is absurd to think one of the Ramseys did this. This was a youngish man. A pedophile. Possibly someone who hated John. Possibly someone connected to the housekeeper in a ransom gone wrong among fools.

Everyone thinks the Ramseys are guilty. If this was a poll, 99% would say someone in the family did it. He is 80. Why stir it all up?

Yes, John’s first wife died with their daughter in a car accident. That’s what I mean—if John was a pedophile sexual sadist—wouldn’t his kids have seen some sign of this?

Risk from men drops with age so it is just odd that’s he’d suddenly start raping his youngest child as an oldish father.

IMO, no intruder, even someone who knew the family (e.g., an employee, a neighbor) would have felt that comfortable for that long, sitting in someone else's house -- while the people were at home.
