I think as the hours passed so did his levels of adrenaline.....fear...fatigue....sadness....reality setting in.
easy to explain being all over the shop to me. these people were devastated. even at their own making and trying to hide what they did.
very tricky indeed to keep it together. they didn't know they were going to get through it without getting caught.
Wasn't it also convenient that they found duct tape and bindings that matched the ones on JBR in LHP's residence after the murder (if I remember correctly; heard this on a television special)? Makes you wonder if they were either planted at LHP's house soon after the murder or if the R's knew LHP had these particular items at her house, and used them specifically while staging the body.
They had staged a kidnapping....which means they knew the feds would be involved immediately. They have no way of knowing the case was already in the process of being botched to such an extent.Was it not Ramseys who called FBI?
In that scenario you really believe John would confront Patsy over her murder at Grand Central Station? Really?It's too big a leap. It's one thing to have arguments on Christmas afternoon and evening; it's another thing to flat-out know your wife killed your daughter the next day. If he heard the night before, and pieced it together, he would have confronted his wife; he wouldn't have simply let it go -- why would he? According to the maids, they were never affectionate toward one another. If you suspected your wife just killed your daughter, and you were in a loveless marriage, would you simply let it go?
Yeah and Burke pretending to be asleep is also another sign of a house with domestic violence. You learn quickly that things go back to normal the next day.How do we know he didn't have an inkling? Thomas says that when Arndt asked White, Fernie and Ramsey for their observations about the ransom note, John was unusually quiet.
Why didn't they drop off the final gift? They had some kind of "debate" (translation: argument) in the car. Maybe Patsy suspected he didn't spend the whole afternoon with his plane. The Vanity Affair article, as I recall, suggested that John was a serial adulterer in his first marriage.
We know that John witnessed an extended fight between Patsy and Jonbenet in the afternoon over the red turtleneck.
If Patsy killed Jonbenet in a rage, it was unlikely to be silent. If John pulled the covers over his head, these fights must have been a common occurrence.
But he wouldn't know at the beginning. When Jonbenet couldn't be found, he wouldn't just assume she was dead. Because it is such a big leap. He wouldn't know she was dead until he found the body at 11 am, as he told his son-in-law (I think).
Arndt said that John was relaxed at the beginning, even joking. Then he was gone for a while. When he came back, he was nervous and quiet. It would be hard to decide what to do. Maybe it occurred to him that Patsy hated him so much, she might implicate him. It probably wouldn't occur to him that she already had.

Even if he wanted to, he was keeping his mouth shut. Such a dramatic and public confrontation happens in movies and TV shows. In the event of John piecing it together as the day moves forward and it finally clicks in his head, he has no incentive to confront Patsy and all the reasons in the world to bide his time and get some ducks lined up. Everything is at stake. You don't go off half cocked and make an accusation towards your wife in a house full of cops and friends. Both him and Patsy would take an immediate trip downtown and would be seperated within minutes. He would make a confusing situation even worse. She'd have to get bailed out of jail before any attempt at piecing it all together and getting the full story can be made.
John would put his big boy pants on, wear his poker face and then proceed with caution while focusing on the task at hand.
Patsy can be dealt with later.
Just because Patsy is a cold fish doesn't mean he's gonna snitch on his wife.
I wish those in the house had paid closer attention to John and Patsy. Simply saying they're "cold" or detached and not lovey dovey doesn't really tell us much. You can communicate with someone using looks, mannerisms, signals, etc. without saying one single word to them.
Yes. Also,
The paint tote was staged. The way they left it out where it was discovered, was part of the staging to implicate LHP. Patsy knew she had last told LHP to take the paint tote down to the basement, before she left on the 23rd. This put it in her hands last.

Me too. I just cant picture him confronting Patsy over it in front of witnesses...especialy considering their general reactions to everything else that day.But anyway, it's somewhat of a side argument, so it's moot to me. I believe JR was in on it from the word "go."
Me too.Or at the very least, I would drag her to a somewhat secluded area and confront her there.
Some BDI say everything is staged, including that pillow.Hmm, interesting. Was it ever specified if the paint tote was directly on top of the urine stain? I thought it was used to obscure the stain.
'It's the boy who did it, whether he was jealous, or mentally unfit or something ... I don't know of the why, I'm not a psychiatrist, but what I am sure about is what I know about him, that is what happened here.'
You gotta luv Werner Spitz for telling it as he sees it :

=========================
Ramsey evidence is explained
" Hand, boot prints determined to be innocent occurrences
By Charlie Brennan, Rocky Mountain News
August 23, 2002
BOULDER - Investigators have answered two vexing questions in the JonBenet Ramsey case that have long helped support the theory that an intruder killed her, according to sources close to the case.
The answers, which have been known to investigators for some time but never publicly revealed, could be seen to weaken the intruder theory.
The two clues are:
A mysterious Hi-Tec boot print in the mold on the floor of the Ramseys' wine cellar near JonBenet's body has been linked by investigators to Burke, her brother, who was 9 at the time. It is believed to have been left there under circumstances unrelated to JonBenet's murder.
Burke, now 15, has repeatedly been cleared by authorities of any suspicion in the 1996 Christmas night slaying, and that has not changed."

Last night Carol McKinley reported on the local Fox news (not FNC) that
Burke owned a pair of HiTec footwear
and it was confirmed by a friend of his."
and it still hasn't changed.Burke, now 15, has repeatedly been cleared by authorities of any suspicion in the 1996 Christmas night slaying, and that has not changed."
