DeDee,
Its elementary dear Watson, to quote a famous author. Four Ramseys entered the house on Christmas night, only three remained alive the next day, with no concrete evidence of an intruder despite heroic efforts by Ramsey supporters to suggest otherwise, its obvious all three remaining Ramseys took part in the staging of the Murder of JonBenet.
its obvious all three remaining Ramseys took part in the staging of the Murder of JonBenet
We must be careful in what part of the CS we refer to as "staged". Will you be so kind as to expound upon this statement and, in particular, how it is obvious BR was in on "staging"?
This is not the only inference available, one can assume the GJ was aware that BR had some role to play, but that the parents played other separate roles, and that one of the parents murdered JonBenet!
Second guessing the GJ is not something I feel comfortable doing but was curious how they managed to overlook; that is, to reconcile, Patsy's incriminating fiber evidence associated with the ligature/garroting/asphyxiation.
BR testified to the GJ. Interestingly, so did BRs teacher. I think she informed them that BR was a quiet child who had difficulty with hand/eye coordination and could not have possible written the RN. Stuff like that...
Many sleuths hold the belief that LHP finding JB w/ BR under the covers was bc they were playing doctor. Perhaps they were looking at the nude pictures in the Dr Seuss adult book.
Whacking someone on the head after they are visibly asphyxiated does seem somewhat counterproductive?
The only time JonBenét was ever able to signal that she was alive and struggling are by the abrasions on her shoulder and back of her leg. [The neighbor who heard the scream would never be called into trial as a witness.] Her body does not show a physical resistance to the strangulation or to the vaginal injuries or to the head bash or any of her other numerous injuries. Lou Smit said she had herr own DNA in her fingernails and clawed at her throat as she was being strangled but no other official said those red half-moon marks were from her fingernails and they look too high up to be near the nylon cord's placement, to me.
The voiding of JonBenet's bladder feeds into the debate as to when she was redressed via the size-12's, and longjohns, since from memory one was described as urine soaked, allowing the inference that the other was a later adornment?
I'm gonna throw a curve ball. I think Patsy misled everyone on the clothing she dressed JB in that night. I think she selected the pink pj bottoms that go to the pink top that JB wore during Christmas morning pictures. JB kept her pjs under her bed pillow. Sometime during the melee, the bathroom drawers where JBs longjohns were kept was opened and not closed. The pink bottoms have never surfaced, iirc.
Personally I reckon the best explantion for JonBenet's death is a sexual assault followed by a head blow to prevent her escaping her abusers control, the rest is staging by her parents, who accept the abuse as given, but try via various stategies to limit the explanations by introducing various factors, e.g. suitcase, Dr Suess book etc, broken window, touch dna on and on ...
There are others who share your viewpoint. I am not one of them since, ATT, I hold Patsy Ramsey responsible for everything in the basement, on the kitchen table, on the stairs, in JBs bedroom and bathroom and in JARs bedroom. JR suspected Patsy prior to finding his daughter's body. I think he later protected his wife bc he knew she was ill but did not realize how serious she was until it was too late.
If you are a legal eagle then you can propose BDI, and plant some evidence, to back up your claims whilst knowing full well it was one of the parents who were culpable.
I am unaware of legal eagles planting illegal evidence against 9yo Burke. Casting suspicions away from the two parents turned out not so bad for the Ramsey defense strategy but oh, so hurtful to Burke. I think Patsy helped that myth along by tossing his red Swiss Army knife into the WC.
BDI might simply be a legal smokesreen for parental abuse, followed with a sophisticated staging?
Yes, to the smokescreen of hiding behind BR and suing on his behalf. Again, it depends on what one considers as staging. Everything at that CS was intentional. Everything. It was planned in advance for Little Miss Christmas to die on Christmas Day. Placing JB on a white blanket in that moldy cement room and placing a RN on the stairs is all the "staging" I see. The rest of it, the open Bible, the page in the dictionary pointing to the word "incest" were all things done by Patsy as she left her funny little clever clues.
The best KISS solution is BR abusing JonBenet, followed by Wecht's assumption that JonBenet's vagus nerve was constricted, say to prevent her telling her parents vocally that she was being abused, leading to unconciousness.
The scarf shown in the mystery picture taken on John's camera before the children on Christmas morning shows it being near the writing pads. JB could have been partially strangled until unconsciousness with the silk scarf that also created the red quarter-size abrasion on her neck. The point is she did not resist the sexual encounter. Why not?
Now even if she was alive in the latter scenario dialling 911 would subsequently reveal JonBenet had been abused, so for the Ramsey's it was no go!
It was always going to be revealed in autopsy that JB had been abused no matter what time 911 was dialed. The coroner looked closely. He found a splinter that likely came from the broken paintbrush and birefringent material that likely came from talcum powder on the latex gloves that were stored in JARs bathroom where the drawer is shown pulled out.
The Decision was taken to murder JonBenet and blame some intruder.
Yes, indeed. We just disagree on when the decision was made and who made it.
The next step was to whack her on the head, visibly this appeared to fail, so the R's waited a while, then decided an asphyxation would supply the appropriate evidence that an intruder had killed JonBenet.
So in this enactment PR murders JonBenet by asphyxiating her and JR whacks her on the head, then realizing this portrayal has so many inconsistencies they supply additional evidence to corroborate their preferrred theory, which as time moves forward they play down so to suggest a pedophile intrider attacked JonBenet?
.
What exactly do you opine being the first step, or preceding step, if the next step was to whack her on the head by JR, wait, then asphyxiation by Patsy with supplies that were handy?
Personality disordered people asphyxiate their children and whack them on their heads causing their skull to fracture over 8".
It has been written that both of the R children may have been sexually abused due to their enuresis and encopresis. Who was suspected of abusing BR? Was JR was doing that? I think it was Patsy who molested both of her children. However, she did not think about it the same as you and I.
Patsy saw nothing wrong with exploring nor in exploiting her children. Patsy bleached her 5yo daughter's hair platinum blonde. The Paugh's spoke about the size of BRs. Really? He was only 9yo. Patsy wanted JB to be a sexy witch for Halloween. What did JonBenét think a sexy witch did at Halloween? JBs dance instructor did not teach JB those moves she made on stage with shaking her hips, et al. She learned that at her mother's feet.
Forcing her daughter, to sleep on a mattress covered in plastic with only a thin sheet over it, knowing JB would likely wet that bed during the night and remain wet until morning is abusive. JB could go into her bathroom and change her panties and bottoms that were kept in there, but the bed sheet would still be wet. It was nine degrees in Boulder that night. I can't imagine my child laying on wet sheets in wet clothes.
Why not allow her child the comfort of wearing a dry pull up to bed so she could enjoy a good night's sleep? Patsy did not want JB sleeping on any of their other beds because they did not have plastic sheeting under the bed linens. That's why JB likely did not sleep in BRs room on Christmas Eve unless she allowed JB to wear a pull up that night.
