BlueCrab said:The death of JonBenet could indeed have been an accident. IMO the device wrapped around JonBenet's neck was not designed to be a garrote for killing purposes; it was designed as a breath control sexual tool.
If the perp wanted to kill JonBenet he could have strangled her with his bare hands. There would have been no need to construct an elaborate ligature device that included a slip knot and a wooden handle. Garrotes for killing are usually nothing more than a simple length of rope or wire with no knots or attachments.
IMO the device wrapped around JonBenet's neck was used by the killer to perform erotic asphyxiation on her. Accidental deaths as a result of EA, according to the FBI, amount to as many as 1,000 per year in the U.S. It's hard to get an accurate figure because the families of the victims usually try to coverup the real cause of the deaths because of embarrassment.
Even John Ramsey agrees that EA had been used on JonBenet. In his profiling of the killer during an interview with Lisa Levitt Ryckman of the Denver Rocky Mountain News, John said, "He is a pedophile with a preference for little girls. He is a sociopath experienced with autoerotic asphyxiation, the use of garrotes to enhance sex."

tumble said:Under normal circumstances saying that a person was whacked on the head by accident would indeed sound strange.
But in this case we are facing facts. Not one scenario makes much sense to a normal person. You just have to follow the path of least resistance and try not to impose blocks that should not be there.
There must be a perp. Putting the blame on someone is equally hard regardless of who that person is.
I belive it is called accidental if you strike someone in rage without the intent to kill. Correct me if I am wrong on this, but thats it the meaning I think LE put on the term when they used it.

The autopsy describes the knot as a doubleknot. Are you supposing it was a collapsed doubleknot? In that case a collapsed doubleknot would not keep the cord tight around the neck like we see in the autopsy photos.

Totally agree.

Was JR knowledgeable about garrotes? He describes the garrote as a twister. No way that could have worked as a twister.

This term applies to the person being denied oxygen enjoing the moment.
Additional blood goes to the genitals, yes.tumble said:The asphyxiation causes involuntary sexual arousal, which enhances the pedophile's pleasure
Interesting. Do you mean a 6 year old actually is forced to arousal? Can a 6 year old girl be aroused at all?
