Good question, Ames; I'm glad you broached it. Your guess that the wrist cord may have been affixed while the arms were in rigor is logical. I once mentioned it myself. It's buttressed by the fact that the arms were stretched (thrust) beyond ("above") her head. One might guess that it was...

Yes to the above, UKGuy. I understand your reckoning about the promise, "I will call you tomorrow...", and wouldn't it have been ever so helpful if both time and date had been specified. You entertain the possibility that the Ramseys may have wanted the world to think that the crime occurred...

Isn't it interesting that we are told by Henry Lee, CBI and many other "experts" that the panty DNA is not necessarily related to the crime, yet the DA has dismissed the case against Karr because this panty DNA doesn't match his. I'm assuming there wasn't some secret DNA that we haven't been...

thank you, narlacat. Roger, Wilco.

A quite interesting discussion of the ransom note. Although there is much about the note-where it was supposedly found, how it was displayed, and it's pristine condition, etc., that raises eyebrows, isn't it nevertheless possible that an unknown subject, wrote it after the murder hoping to...

Thanks, SD. Re the pendant: wasn't there supposedly a cross (crucifix) attached to the necklace originally? Is damage usually done to the tongue, larynx or hyoid bone in the course of ligature strangulation? I'm aware that one or more of these is sometimes damaged during manual...

narlacat, thanks for the info; I'll go have a look.

sissi, Darn, girl! Don't you have this case solved yet? Is it or is it not a "deep" ligature groove? Was there or was there not petechial hemorrhaging in association with it? Her neck: had it or had it not been considerably roughed up (abraded) in front. You know, this roughing up is what...

Hi, sissi. Glad to see you're still here and, as yet, unblocked. Salient features of John's 1998 interview with Kane and Smit, repeated below for ready reference (not necessarily in the correct order): 9 JOHN RAMSEY: With the lights off at night 10 it would have been hazardous because...

Thanks, Jayelles and tipper for setting the record straight (once again) concerning the door to the train room. It's always helplful to distinguish between a doorway (a portal; an opening into e.g. a room) and a door (a means of closing off or opening up the portal). The portal (the doorway)...

Are you saying you think the police deliberately avoided arresting anyone? I thought Thomas was all fired up to arrest Patsy. This person who has immunity from prosecution; who is he; the perp? The renegade agency; that's the BPD? Who is it that trained BinLaden? Aren't BinLaden and Osama...

Whoa, BC, the evidence doesn't suggest that JonBenet was raped in the ordinary sense. It suggests that she was poked in the vagina with a stick. If you want to call that rape, that's your prerogative; depends on how you define the word. Unless Burke is a beaver, his prepubescent penis...

From Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Eleventh Edition: agenda--an underlying often ideological plan or program <a political ~> interest--there are five definitions, none of which is remotely linked to agenda nor remotely opposed to agenda. passion--there are five definitions, none of...

I have no problem with objectivity; I don't even have a problem with lack of objectivity. I don't think you're being objective in your posting here, and I expressed that impression, but the thrust of my post was to inform you what the thread is for. Look at the title of the thread and read...

Just what is it that you're trying to do? I thought the purpose of this thread was to give people who think an intruder did it, an opportunity to say so and substantiate their views; not to invite argument from those whose opinions differ. Am I mistaken about this? If you don't think an...

Kidman for sure. Jackman? You've got to be kidding. Crowe, Russell. Now him I wouldn't mind; ain't he beautiful! over...

Let's see, Boulder Colorado is in the Western Hemisphere, and Sky's dingo ate the missing evidence, so, Sky, you erred; your dingo is an exotic species. Oh, it was imported? I see.

SBP: Basking in the sun and digesting incautious dingos.

A tree person is someone who gets bogged down in detail and waits for an alligator to come along and drag him to shore; after which, if he survives the rescue, he fades into the forest. Yes, the Verona guys; I thought of that two...rrrr...too. I have a new theory (my theory du jour); it...

Hi, Jaxie, I think you've made some thought-provoking comments. The "Listen carefully" certainly could lead you to believe that the message was meant to be conveyed telephonically rather than by written communication. I think that's something for us all to mull over. I won't say anything...
