In the '97 interview with JR he says
"then I went from there into the cellar. Pull on the door, it was latched. I reach up and unlatched it, and then I saw the white blanket, "
but we know from FW interview that he ALSO found the door latched. Opened it and looked inside.
Whoever opened the door first(namely FW) must have relatched it. Is this plausible?
He doesn't state that he relatched it though.
In fact we also know that JR didn't know that FW had been looking inside this door. Could be that he never unlatched it the second time but KNEW it was latched(...because he himself latched it during the night...)
