RBBM
My apologies for not being more clear. Portions of the AR were released in July '97 and Sept. 8,
1997. The media sensationalized the pineapple found in JB because the family claimed she was asleep and never woke up to be fed. Therefore, PR was well-aware of the bugaboo of the pineapple feeding since it pointed to death occurring around 12:30.
Patsy's Interview:
0478

24 TOM HANEY: There were the remains of
25 pineapple in JonBenet's system.
0479
1 PATSY RAMSEY: I had heard that, yeah.
2 TOM HANEY: This is not a shock to you?
3 PATSY RAMSEY: No, it is not. No.
4 TOM HANEY: Okay.

5 PATSY RAMSEY: No. I just know that I heard
6 somewhere there was pineapple in her stomach.
On the pineapple set up, you give Patsy 3 way-out options: 1) Telling the truth 2) Simply does not remember 3) Does not know who did it
Or Patsy could be 1) Telling a lie because she is sticking to the JB going straight to bed version. 2) That she definitely remembers and could be setting up her defense. 3) Does know who did it because she did it. It is her set-up. One thing that always stuck out to me about the spoon was that is was "Patsy's good silver". This special occasion serving spoon did not come from the ordinary cereal spoon drawer. Special white pedestal serving bowl. Special silver spoon. A final, a special, a last peaceful meal of happiness, if you will.

1998 John's Interview
0205
23 LOU SMIT: Okay. I think that's kind of a
24 chronological that kind of gets up to the hearing.
25 Now I would like to go over the specifics. And
0206
1 this here is academic questions about heating
[eating] . And
2 you brought up this that you heard something about
3 pineapple. Now what have you heard about
4 pineapple?
5 JOHN RAMSEY: Well, we were asked if JonBenet
6 had eaten any pineapple, because apparently it was
7 found in her system.
I don't know if the police
8 asked us that or we saw it on television or the
9 question came up. I don't remember her eating
10 pineapple
0517
1 LOU SMIT: And even the
2 pineapple.
3 JOHN RAMSEY: Yes, is that
4 what was in the bowl?
5 LOU SMIT: Yeah. And we, and
6 we haven't talked about this too much, but
7 have you heard anything about pineapple in
8 regards to your daughter?
9 JOHN RAMSEY: Just that it was
10 a question mark that there was either was or
11 could have been pineapple in her system.
12 LOU SMIT: And where did you
13 hear that?
14 JOHN RAMSEY: Oh, it's been on the
15 tabloids, been on television; I think these
16 fellows asked me about it. It started to come
17 up as a question, at least in the media.
Aug 13,
