Is this a re-play of the video of Chief Kolar that we saw a few months ago, or is it recent?

Thanks for answering my questionsI am trying to read the back pages of this forum so I will be more knowledgable..right now I'm on page 61. When I was growing up I assumed it was an intruder because I was a kid and didn't want to believe parents would do that. Then for a while I thought it could go either way..but I was never interested enough in the case to look things up and try to find info or anything. And now as an adult I have become interested, and let me tell you after reading this forum to page 61 (so far) I cannot believe there is even a question about who did this. There's just too much stuff that makes no sense. It had to be a family member in that home. (IMO, of course. I'd rather it not be her family, but that's what it looks like to me).

Thank you very much, Pageantmom!!!! You give us very valuable information and you proofed (for me!) one more time: JonBenet's participation in pageants was all about 'flashy' Patsy!
Thank you again.
Wow - so much more info than I've ever seen with regard to JB's pageant life.
Interesting the choices that were made for her entries, and I'd like to comment that Pam Paugh (Patsy's sister) took a lot of credit for JB's costume design with Grandma Nedra helping with the glitzy details. Grandma was usually on hand to push JB along when she balked from what I read.
Thanks for all the photography info. Something seems more 'off' now. The attention to JB looking so glamorized for her head and shoulder shots, and the pageants chosen which promoted a more 'mature' JB. It makes me wonder who they were showing her off to. Why would Patsy have gotten such a thrill in seeing her little girl look so much more mature than she really was? Could she have been doing it to please JR?
...or please herself?!!!
- Who made sure that JB wears the matching to Patsy outfits? - Patsy!
- Who colored JB's hair in blond color with tons of makeup? - Patsy!
- Who hired and paid for professional photo sessions? -Patsy!
- Who took JB to bathroom (as the punishment!) and closed the door tide behind...while JB was screaming and crying? - Patsy!
- Toward whom JB feels rebellion and resistance? - Patsy!
.....
...so, the relationship between JB and PR was (at the minimum!) not the healthy one!...JMO

In the Barbara Walters interview that was posted a couple of days ago, PR said that her pageant days, were the most wonderful time of her life. This from the mother of a murdered daughter. I would think her memories of JB might overshadow her own glory days, but evidently not. But that's ok. It is what it is, and at least she was being honest.The Paugh gals really must have had trouble letting the glamour of the pageants rest. Nedra was known to be a "force to reckon with", and I think now she must have just moved onto JB once Patsy and Pam had gone "over the hill". As Patsy was fading, maybe sliding JB into the limelight was another way she could continue to keep her mother pacified.
Have to agree with you, OM. This was the mother who said she loved her daughter with all her heart. WHY was she so bent on making JB into a princess type mini-me? Was she living out what she hoped she might have been?
Maybe John only liked the talent part because he knew that was the only part that was actually beneficial to JB if the goal was Miss America. The rest of the pageant was just fluff at best, and at worst detrimental to the Miss America dream.
I obviously like glitz pageants since I did them and now my daughter does them. So I'm not knocking glitz.
But lets say your big dream for your child is that they become a prima ballerina with the Royal Ballet...do you put them in lessons for hip hop dancing, or do you put them in classical ballet? That's why I don't understand Patsy's thought process in planning for JonBenet. There are a bunch of things she could have been doing to help JB get to Miss America, but she wasn't doing them. Instead, she was indulging her own glittery, glamourous dream with the glitz circuit.
I never liked JR making this statement. 1st of all, it gave the impression that he knew what they were doing was wrong, (but he had no say so in the matter), and #2, JonBenet was 6, so stressing anything, even the talent, was ridiculous. She wasn't much more than a baby. What did he expect? for her to rehearse for hours every day so she could be a virtuoso at something? This is the kind of thing a parent would tell a much older child, as a way to keep her grounded and not so superficial. If a parent really wanted his child to nurture a talent, he wouldn't do it through the pageant system. IMO, he was trying to insinuate that HE thought the showgirls stuff was distasteful, but doing anything about it was beyond his control. riiight. .Maybe John only liked the talent part because he knew that was the only part that was actually beneficial to JB if the goal was Miss America.
