By "gone bad"......it means something went wrong, because this was an amateur who hadn't really thought things out. Perhaps JBR was struggling too much---much more than anticipated, and the garotte was constructed as a means of control...me may have gotten angry and reacted in anger, and killed her. I don't think he was cool, calm and collected, but operating on adrenalin, and fearful of detection. If the window was the only exit the perp could be sure was unarmed, he would have to figure out how to get her out that window, along with himself.
Maikai - please re-read what you wrote and really THINK about what you are proposing. Think about it with the known facts and evidence in this case.
I'll give you a head start. You suggest maybe JonBenet was "struggling too much" so the 'kidnapper' constructed the garrotte to control her.
Now THINK about what you are suggesting. In order for this to have occurred, the kidnapper picked up JonBenet from her bed and carried her down
stairs. (Now please tell me WHEN and HOW he laid those 3 pages of ransom note on those stair steps. Couldn't have been before he went up to get her as he'd step on them on the way down encumbered with the body of JonBenet. Then you must think he set JonBenet down on the ground and went to find the 3 pages of note he wrote and came back to lay them across the stair tread? This question MUST be answered by the intruder theorists.)
Ok, so he carries her down stairs and I guess we neglect the note placement
here - but instead of high-tailing it OUT the door, he heads down to the basement with her? Huh?? WHY? And we KNOW that no one exited out the window down there because John Ramsey found a chair shoved up against the door to that room. Unless this intruder is a ghost - how did he enter into the room with the window and manage to shove a chair up against the door on the other side of the door in the hallway?? This is a FACT that door was there. Along with the undisturbed dirt on the window well and the spider webs across the well - you can forget this exit for the 'kidnapper.'
But we KNOW he was down there. JonBenet was found there.
Why - if he didn't exit from the basement (and remember according to you intruder theorists, he had 'hours' to roam the house and plan where he would escape from) did he choose to go down to the basement at all??
Not to mention into the only room down there where he was TRAPPED while he did all those awful things to JonBenet.
You say he constructed the garrotte as JonBenet was 'struggling' more than he anticipated. Wait - I thought she was stun-gunned? She wouldn't have struggled at all.
Also, the cord & stick mechanism were constructed down in the basement.
So in your 'gone bad' theory, because we KNOW she was taken downstairs instead of out the door - the question of WHY he chose to go downstairs at all must be answered. It wasn't to exit because he DIDN'T exit from down in the basement. The chair, dirt and spiderwebs attest to this.
So why DID he then go down the stairs and not out the door to meet up with his fellow foreign faction to celebrate the retrieval of their ransom victim?
Afterall - this is supposed to be the whole purpose according to the note intruder theorists claim the kidnapper wrote. To kidnap and collect $118K in ransom money from John Ramsey.
To think an intruder theory through with the facts and evidence just does NOT work. On many, many levels.
And there is a very good reason it does not work - because it did not happen.
This was a familial homicide. For whatever reasonthat it took place in the house that night. The staging was obvious. The note makes it even more obvious that Patsy Ramsey was involved in the very least the staging of the crime.
Again, when attempting to show how it was a kidnapping 'gone bad' - it simply makes it more obvious that it was not. That scenario cannot fit the facts of the crime and make it work.
