Well, since I tend to think that Patsy is innocent, I think John (who did it! And he framed Patsy as well) wrote the ransom note to frighten Patsy so that she would not call the police, once she realized that her daughter was missing. That would give John the time to dispose of the dead body (and the incriminating JAR suitcase if John Andrew was also involved).What puzzles me is why the Ramsey's would go to all the trouble of covering up JBR's murder by moving suitcases, hitting her on the head, cleaning her up etc. when they could have put JBR in their car and got rid of the body. Wouldn't burying her body be the logical thing to do if Patsy wrote the ransom note? Why leave JBR in the house and face all the scrutiny, it doesn't make sense.
"No Body, No Crime"
But then Patsy ruined the plan by calling the police, when she discovered the ransom note. According to testimony from Patsy (though John insists otherwise), she made the decision to call the police, she TOLD her husband that she was calling the police.
So had Patsy NOT called the police, then John would have disposed of the dead body.
Would neighbors see John carry over the dead body? Could he possibly hide the body in a suitcase? Do you know? Thank you!
