CathyR,
Unless JonBenet's photographs compared against that of another healthy 6-year old girl were simply the result of an acute sexual assault then this might explain the difference.
My BOLD
There should be some difference in a normal child who does not have a history of UTI's and one who does. It would be redness and even bleeding from the irritation that would be present on the child who was ill and not on the one who was healthy and normal.
But it is not simply the attending investigators who viewed JonBenet's photographs it was also numerous other experts, who also cited prior molestation.
It is those experts I'm speaking about and the manner the data was given to them to compare. Were they aware of JBR's long history with vaginitis and UTI's. Were they aware of the assault just prior to death?
A comparison with a healthy girl is not circumstantial. Attribution of JonBenet's bedwetting to pageant stress may be correct but that does not rule out prior molestation, since her stress may have been multi-causal e.g. more than one person may have been molesting her.
The psychological torture is what would cause the bed wetting. No where in the coroners report is it stated that JBR was molested prior to the murder.
He made a comment to someone who later quoted it. This might have been prior to him reading her medical history and then saying to himself, that explains the erosion and previous healing. He had not completed his report at the time he made the statement.
Just like the so called panel of experts he was UNAWARE of her medical history. He does not put it in his report just like the person presenting the data to the group of doctors does not make them aware of the differences between the two children in regards to medical history. They do reveal the one which is JBR and in a "blind study" this is not allowed. In order to get correct and unbiased opinions you must compare an apple to an apple. You cannot provide a green apple and a red one. They are two different things.
Comparison of a healthy child to one with a long history such as JonBenet's is not apples to apples in any sense. If this panel of experts want to testify I'm sure the Boulder DA would gladly accommodate them. I'm sure an expert in urological pediatric issues will supply JR all the ammo(other photos of female children suffering what JBR had) to counter this claim and give a fair comparison.
If this panel of experts were willing to proceed I'm sure the DA would have done so already. It isn't like they are not aware of this information. Whoever did convene the panel would have and should have informed the office as to the results and consent of the experts to back it up.
There was no need for any intruder to hide that he had sexually assaulted JonBenet, never mind killed her. But he did and he hid her body in a wine-cellar, dressed her in size-12's, wiped her down, leaving some black cotton fibers on her skin, Then placed the longjohns on her and wrapped her in a white blanket, that appears to have no blood on it whilst the barbie nightgown does.
So why does the intruder bother hiding all this, since he knows JonBenet will eventually be discovered dead and subsequently an autopsy will reveal an acute sexual assault e.g. not a staged genital injury?

Maybe dressing her in different clothes turned him on. She got to pretend she was Barbie and he got what he wanted without having to force her to do it. Change clothes that is. He might even have got her to allow him to put the duct tape on her mouth. It could be part of the lure he used to get her down to the basement.
Wiping her down would be an effort to clean up the crime scene. In any whodunit theory here no one wants to be caught by DNA so why do you think the intruder would be any less willing to be caught.
When Coroner Meyer cites digital penetration and sexual contact he may do so on the basis of similar evidence in other cases where sexual assault was predominant. That is Coroner Meyer might recognize chronic sexual abuse when he sees it! He was there, we were not, we have not seen the photographs, those that have cite prior molestation. I doubt they are all victims of peer pressure.
WHERE- WHERE does he officially cite this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hearsay evidence is not allowed in court. It does JBR no good to pursue it from that angle.
So rather than exhibiting circumstantial traits. The most you can claim about JonBenet's internal injuries is that they are coincidental. e.g. independent of her acute injuries and the result of pageant stress?
