UKGuy,
I reckon the only reason Burke gave the Dr. Phil interview in the first place was @ his father’s urging (to help clear Burke’s name). I think this back fired as Burke is socially awkward (per Dr. Phil). Considering Burke’s awkwardness I do not see him stepping forward, period.
According to record, Jonbenet was in a deep sleep when she arrived home. As a mother, I would not fuss at this point by putting another ponytail in my daughters hair. It is redundant. Also, we must consider that Det. Arndt noticed green flecks in her hair that matched those on the spiral staircase, during autopsy.
Yes, her pajama bottoms are missing, but considering the mess of clothing in that house there is no telling where they are. Perhaps the pink top was put under her pillowcase when she supposedly went to bed Christmas night. We don’t know otherwise. As for the blood stained pink Barbie gown found in the wine cellar, it is my opinion that she had this on when she was struck. That purple duffel bag could have been used to transport items from Jonbenet’s bedroom to the basement, i. e. Burke’s pajama bottoms, all those ponytail holders laying all over her bedroom floor, her gap shirt.
We don’t know for a fact that the basement crime scene was all staged. We do know her life was ended here. Let’s jump back for a moment to the nightgown. Why would PR bring up the fact that she didn’t notice blood on the tie backs of Jonbenet’s bed. I am sure she was misleading here; not forthcoming.
I concede to the fact that the sexual element was recognized. Let’s not overlook the fact that some mother’s also abuse their children, grandchildren etc. It was Nedra whom slept in Jonbenet’s bedroom while Patsy was going through treatment. Grooming for pageants started with her. I wonder if that grooming was taken a bit further. Jonbenet exhibited out of the ordinary sexualized actions for a 6 year old little girl. It was also Nedra that stated that all children are a little abused. And I’ve said this before but will say it again to drive home a point ... Why on earth would Patsy’s sister ever have a need to instruct Burke to scream at people coming to his closed bedroom door to “Go away, get out?” I can’t see where this is ever appropriate. In so saying, I strongly believe the sexual abuse stemmed by Patsy’s side of the family; not John’s.
Please convince me why you believe all of this will come to pass.
Rain on my Parade,
They did the Dr. Phil interview to promote Burke's media profile and get his defense in ahead of the CBS documentary.
Burke is currently unmarried and unless he can demonstrate he took no part in JonBenet's death who is going to marry him?
So if he is innocent, some kind of media interview to clear the air, tell the truth etc, will likely benefit him, but only once John has left us, since he runs the show.
Perhaps the pink top was put under her pillowcase when she supposedly went to bed Christmas night.
1998 BPD Interview Patsy Excerpt
1 TOM HANEY: What is it?
2 PATSY RAMSEY: It is her Barbie nightgown.
3 TOM HANEY: Is that hers or her Barbie
4 doll's? When would she have worn that last, do you
5 know?
6 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, she didn't wear it that
7 night because she had her -- she had the [long underwear
8 pants and her little white shirt. And the night before
9 on Christmas Eve night she wore the pink little
10 (inaudible) that was under her pillow. You saw that.
11 And before that I don't remember. But neither of those
12 two nights she wore that.
1997 BPD Interview Patsy Excerpt, Patsy offers a reason for Ramnesia
ST: Do you recall on December 24th into the morning of December 25th, whether or not JonBenet slept in her bed or over in Burkes room?
PR: I, I just don’t remember exactly, but it seems like she was in her bed, but I don’t remember exactly.
ST: How about on the, uh, night of the 25th when you and John put her to bed, would it have been unlikely for her to have then moved to another location in the house to have slept, your bed or Burke’s room?
PR: Yeah, it would have been unlikely.
ST: Okay.
PR: The reason I can’t remember whether they, where she slept on the 24th were, not cause it seemed like they were conspiring about what time they were going to get up in the morning and I can’t remember whether they, it seems like there, that she did, they did talk about her sleeping in his room, but I can’t remember whether that really happened or not, but I remember they were conspiring about what time to get up and . . .
Yeah, it happened JonBenet slept in Burke's room, code for ...
As for the blood stained pink Barbie gown found in the wine cellar, it is my opinion that she had this on when she was struck.
Maybe, could be it was intended to replace Burke's long johns, which are not only a red flag, but inject Burke into JonBenet's death, this neglects Burke's touch dna on the nightgown.
We don’t know for a fact that the basement crime scene was all staged.
Sure, but its pretty close to being fact. Nearly everything related to the basement crime-scene was staged right down to Jonbenet's size-12 underwear.
We do know her life was ended here.
Not known as fact, this is supposition.
Let’s jump back for a moment to the nightgown. Why would PR bring up the fact that she didn’t notice blood on the tie backs of Jonbenet’s bed. I am sure she was misleading here; not forthcoming.
Patsy did this all the time, this was just an attempt to deflect from JonBenet's bloodstain on the pillow, and the questions about nosebleeds.
Jonbenet exhibited out of the ordinary sexualized actions for a 6 year old little girl.
I reckon this is what the public picked up on when they viewed the pageant movies on TV News over the New Year, etc.
Release of non-critical forensic items and photographs by BPD keeps the case in the news and some detectives gainfully employed undertaking media interviews, its all part of the homicide media cycle.
Once John leaves us, particular people will give media interviews and collectively their snippets of information will allow us to solve the case.
I regard PDI as an outlier with JDI and BDI on the table.
