I don't know if the pineapple has anything whatsoever to do with the crime - I feel like if it was somehow linked to her death then it wouldn't have been forgotten. This evidence at least indicates that PR and JR are lying about some things. It tells us that the "she was asleep the whole time" mantra was a rouse. Someone in that house knows that JBR ate pineapple. What are they hiding?
IMO, the scenario with the pineapple plays out one of two ways:
1. The kids had a pineapple snack before bed, fed by PR. PR and JR had to lie about JBR being asleep the whole time because they don't want to explain what happened leading up to her death (too many opportunities to slip up; too many details lead to suspicion). The easiest thing is to say she was asleep (who can contradict that?). The pineapple was forgotten because PR and JR were focused on cleaning up evidence of the crime.
2. PR prepared the pineapple at some prior time and BR got it out of the fridge for he and JBR to snack on after they got home. PR and JR are not aware, and BR forgets to clean up the bowl. Maybe he only got it out for JBR and leaves her with it, so she forgets to put it away. BR doesn't mention it because he's afraid he'll get in trouble for letting her have it and being up with her after she was supposed to be in bed. Or, perhaps he did tell his parents and they coached him to forget it and stick to their story that she was asleep the whole time.
So ultimately, why lie about it and insist she was asleep? Because something happened between the time the family got home and when JBR was murdered that led to her death. So they lie, get caught in a lie (one of many), and try to dismiss it as irrelevant evidence.
Did they ever imply that the intruder fed it to her? If they did that is idiotic - it doesn't fit with their critical stun gun theory. Maybe they did and then dropped it once Lou Smit gifted the stun gun theory to their defense team?
