Hi Txsleuth70
Was this the bat found outside with carpet fibers on it ...consistent with the basement carpet? Didn't the Ramseys initially deny knowing anything about it? Yet it turned out to be Burkes and he admitted it on Dr Phil.
Judge Carnes Opinion. The Carnes opinion states that the bat "has fibers consistent with fibers found in the carpet in the basement where JonBenet's body was found. (SMF P 185; PSMF P 185.)" (Carnes 2003:20).
- strange sound that he described as metal crushing/hitting concrete deep at night
Ive always wondered if it was the bat that caused the severe head wound. If you look at the shocking state of poor little Jonbenets head, I personally feel the impact of a bat would do that kind of damage more so than a flash light.
Taking a look at the pics where this bat was found wasn't far from the basement outside. Was it dropped outside from the butlers pantry door or another house window, causing the noise heard by the neighbor?
Thanks UKGUY,
Thanks UKGuy, again, excellent comments. I certainly read about Linda finding the kids playing doctor in Burkes room and her being told to go away. What the hell was going on in that house? I'm still finding my way around here ( a very new member) can you lead me to your previous posts on the above. I would be interested in what you have to say regarding the size 12s. Patsy said she put them in Jonbenets drawer yet the Police state they didn't even find one pair in there of that size. Size 12s would of been HUGE on jonbenet and fallen down ( I saw that a lady made a model in jonbenet's size & placed a size 12 Bloomingdale's pair on it so we could see just how large they were ) what an eye opener, If she'd worn them under a dress, they simply would of fallen down. I wondered if it was important to someone to have jonbenet found in completely clean underpants. It was stated all underpants in the drawer had old soil marks on them despite being washed. I'd like to read more on the weapon used. I just get a feeling the bat would of easily had more of an impact and created the horrendous skull fracture right down little jonbenets head. Would love to know your thoughts UKGuy as it seems you've studied this case for a very long time
CaseCracker,

Well, patently someone was sexually abusing JonBenet.
Foreign Faction by James Kolar, Excerpt
Following the meeting, Dr. Meyer returned to the morgue with Dr. Andy Sirontak, Chief of Denver Children’s Hospital Child Protection Team, so that a second opinion could be rendered on the injuries observed to the vaginal area of JonBenét.
...
Further inspection revealed that the hymen was shriveled and retracted, a sign that JonBenét had been subjected to some type of SEXUAL CONTACT PRIOR TO THE DATE OF HER DEATH.

can you lead me to your previous posts on the above.
Just use the Search Feature on the webpage by typing in particular keywords e.g. "BDI Window", etc.
There is a whole section devoted to the size-12's, where I show how Patsy's claims regarding the underwear do NOT stand up.

Yes, JonBenet would have worn her NEW size-6 Bloomingdale's WEDNESDAY underwear to the White's party, along with her black velvet pants.
The size-6 underwear she wore to the White's party were NEVER found and BPD have NEVER released details on the underwear recovered from JonBenet's underwear drawer, other than the size, go figure!
Since JonBenet was redressed in size-12 WEDNESDAY underwear then it's the Day Of The Week feature that matters to the stager, along with them being clean of course.
I'd like to read more on the weapon used.
There are many theories, some of which advocate the use of the Flashlight, Baseball Bat, or Barbell. The latter can be seen in photographs of JonBenet's bedroom.
The Baseball Bat might either represent staging to chime with the Broken Window or the dumping of forensic evidence by JonBenet's killer?
JonBenet's murder is a Sexual Homicide, which highlights JR as a prime suspect.
The intimate aspects of PR and JR's marriage had broken down, with PR disliking JR's repeated requests.
So it's possible JR had turned to JonBenet?
With JonBenet performing at Pageants and Malls, etc.
She would be no stranger to adult attention.
IMO, JonBenet was the classic child abuse victim.
Due to her age and innocence she was trapped by circumstance with NOBODY to talk to.
Vulnerable, and stressed from all the demands placed on her immature frame. This is what likely caused her to wet the bed?
The trigger for JonBenet's murder might have been her decision to tell someone that she was being abused?
Psychologically JonBenet would have been confused and disassociated, since her normal development had been interrupted.
Patsy stated that JonBenet had been in therapy prior to Christmas, this might have prompted JonBenet to resolve to communicate her feelings to some other third party?
JonBenet ITRMI A Gathering Storm, Chapter 12, excerpt
Burke Ramsey had returned to classes, without police escort, a few weeks after a "small foreign faction" killed his sister. When Detective Gossage called a THERAPIST WHO WE WERE TOLD HAD SEEN JONBENET, he was told to "talk to the Parents Attorneys".
