Good point about the tea bag. I had never considered the idea that the bag had been simply dumped in the glass. I wonder if a used teacup was found anywhere else in the house?
And Patsy's mothering skills don't seem to be very good either. Not sure what time the family got up on Christmas, but having young kids, I assume it was vey early. So after opening gifts she makes pancakes, which I couldn't imagine happening much later than 10:00 am. The kids then go hungry until dinner at the Whites? Even then, she has no clue as to whether JB even ate anything there! This is a six year old girl for gods sake! As a parent you have to make sure the eat properly, three times a day not just once!

andreww,
The breakfast bar completely escaped the R's notice. This suggests a disconnect between the breakfast bar and JonBenet ending up in the basement, otherwise the R's would have cleaned up the breakfast bar. Since the pineapple in the serving bowl contradicts the R's version of events.
So if Kolar is serious regarding his speculation about BR and JonBenet then he must know something we do not.
BR's fingerprints were on the the glass
and the serving bowl. If BR had simply dropped a teabag into the glass then his fingerprints need not be on the glass at all. From memory it was Patsy who said BR was the resident tea-drinker, potentially ruling out another person as having made a drink of tea?
IMO the breakfast-bar scenario appears to have been left as it was after BR and JonBenet retired to say JonBenet's bedroom?
JonBenet's hair was styled with two assymetric ponytails, so either these were done directly
after returning from the White's or
after she snacked pineapple, can anyone see BR doing this, I cannot?
So it appears Patsy readied JonBenet for bed, possibly even placing her in bed? Later BR treats JonBenet to a pineapple snack, alternatively Patsy prepares the snack, then styles JonBenet's ponytails, putting her to bed. All the R's would have been aware they had to bed down early as they were flying the next morning.
I reckon both BR and JonBenet would have been dressed in their respective pajamas ready for bed, and Patsy preparing the pineapple snack could be an inducement or reward for good behaviour?
That BR's fingerprints appear on more than one breakfast bar item is more than coincidence, it suggests his presence, but does not conclusively demonstrate it. Just as his pants, as alleged by Kolar, being found in JonBenet's bedroom suggest his presence there too?
ETA: Of course if Patsy prepared the pineapple-snack then why did she not cleanup the breakfast-bar in the early hours of the next day, you have a similar question regarding her knowledge about the size-12's and her statement to the investigators?
So there are good grounds for assuming Patsy styled JonBenet's assymetric ponytails, and that some other R prepared the pineapple snack, which is consistent with Kolar's speculation?
