An excerpt from CNN's 11.12.02 LKL interview with Lin Wood:
"KING: We're back with Lin Wood. Now, police say that they had several key pieces of evidence against the Ramseys. We should point out no charges have ever been brought in this case against anyone, right?
WOOD: Against anyone.
KING: Patsy's clothing fibers -- the biggest one they claim is the fibers from her jacket. They say from what she was wearing were found in the paint tray where the garot used to strangle Jon Benet was found. Fibers were also found on Jon Benet's body, and the duct tape Jon Benet's mouth. And what we are going to show now is the tape of her responding to that charge, right?
Here is Jon Benet's mother, Patsy, responding to that charge about the evidence of the fibers.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We have found, and I want you to help us, maybe you can offer an explanation. We have found fibers in the paint tray that appear to come off of the coat in the photograph we showed you.
P. RAMSEY: In the paint tray?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes.
P. RAMSEY: What's a paint...
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: ... ask his question. What's your question?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I did.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I'll rephrase the question, maybe this will satisfy -- Mrs. Ramsey, I have no evidence from any scientist to suggest that those fibers are from any source other than your red jacket.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Come on. What other sources did they test? How many other red jackets and red and black jackets did they test? That's an unfair question on the face of it, Bruce. Did they test anything other than that red and black jacket? I mean, they can't have information that it could come from another source if they didn't test another source for gosh sakes.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
KING: And how, Lin were they -- would you go out and test every red jacket ever made?
WOOD: No, no -- but let me make a couple of points. Number one, police interrogations do not have to be fair, and they don't have to be truthful. So when they ask a question and say they've got evidence that says that fibers from her jacket appear to be consistent with fibers found in the paint tray, that may or may not be true.
I know they asked John Ramsey about fibers during his interrogation, and I know for a fact that the information was not true in terms of the location of those fibers.
Patsy was wearing a red and black and gray jacket, as I recall, and there were red fibers alleged to have been found on the duct tape, and on Jon Benet's body and in the paint tray.
That's what they say.
There were no black fibers. There were no gray fibers. We know that there are brown fibers that have never been sourced. We know that there are blue fibers that have never been sourced.
So the fiber evidence is, I think, extremely weak and besides, she lived in the home. She put Jon Benet to bed that night. There's any one of many innocent explanations for why the fibers might be consistent with something Patsy was wearing.
KING: Now concerning John's clothing fibers. They say there's evidence of fibers from John's clothing on Jon Benet. Here is the father's response.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Mr. Ramsey, it is our belief, based on forensic testing that there are hairs that are associated -- that the source is the collared black shirt that you sent to us that are found in your daughter's underpants, and I want to refute...
J. RAMSEY: Bull (EXPLETIVE DELETED). I don't believe that. I don't buy it. If you're trying to disgrace my relationship with my daughter...
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Mr. Ramsey, I'm not trying to...
J. RAMSEY: Well, I don't believe it. That's ridiculous.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I think you are too, Bruce. Let's move on. Why don't you move on.
J. RAMSEY: That's disgusting.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: No, I am not.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes, you are.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Let's move to something else, maybe.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Let's move to another topic.
J. RAMSEY: The question is, how did fibers of your shirt get in your daughter's underwear? I say that is not possible. I don't believe it. That's ridiculous.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
KING: So you're saying police invent things to try to get respondents to respond?
WOOD: That was invented. We know that there were black fibers found, they claim, but there were no black fibers found in the areas of Jon Benet's underwear, as claimed in that question."
