Britt said:Where is the proof that Chet Ubowski doesn't believe Patsy wrote the note, as you state?
Page 421 PMPT pb: "The police had hung their hat on the Ramseys as culprits, but they were still unable to provide the DA's office with enough evidence to warrant an arrest. Neither Alex Hunter nor the police were ready to admit that the case was unsolvable, however. Knowing that the ransom note was the best piece of evidence they had, Hunter hoped that the CBI's handwriting experts would find something solid, but Chet Ubowski would not take the leap and say Patsy had written the note. The CBI expert refused to tailor his conclusions to the needs of the police and the DA."
It's true that Ubowski had a "gut feeling" that Patsy wrote the note, but he was professional enough to follow the objective analyses of the handwriting examinations, including his own.
Patsy may have written the note, but the professional analyses of the CBI's six examiners concluded it was a very low probability that she did.
