Maybe they're not missing - maybe they never existed.
Thats what Patsy would like us to assume. And its perfectly possible, with any other state of affairs it would just not be noteworthy.
JonBenet was like most other girls her age, she would have been happy to play away and avoid the distraction of washing and changing if possible.
But under interview Patsy stated that she normally made sure JonBenet was washed and dressed for appoinments and outings etc.
Dont forget she already wanted JonBenet to be wearing a matching outfit, but JonBenet refused. So we can infer from that she did not simply shout through to her in the bathroom e.g. "OK honey you can wear those velvet pants, what color of top will you wear, remember and change your underwear" etc.
Patsy cannot remember if JonBenet bathed or changed her underwear christmas day, cannot remember what she wore out to play, cannot remember removing JonBenet's underwear after arriving back from the White's, cannot remember when she opened the size-12 pack of underwear ... importantly out of all those since Patsy would have supervised her change into the size-12, and this would have been a novel occurrence so not one to be forgotten so easily.
On her wearing them to the White's I reckon this will have crossed the police minds too. So when Fleet and Priscilla were interviewed you can bet they were both asked if either had escorted Jonbenet to the toilet, or did they notice anyone else doing this, did their daughter exchange underwear etc.
The nature of this questioning probably left them feeling as suspects not witnesses. Later when Fleet spoke to John, it was probably along the lines "I hope you are not fingering me, you know the cops have been asking me some questions about ******* " and John's reply or lack of one, likely caused Fleet to become incensed and angry.
Its also possible there is further evidence obtained from the White interviews which has some relevance otherwise Fleet would have been allowed a copy. The police did not want Fleet allowing John to read it and know which areas to stall on or become forgetful.
So up until Christmas Day in her sixth year its normal practise for Jonbenet to wear her own size underwear, and given the Ramsey amnesia, and why it may have been necessary for JonBenet to be re-dressed, then this sudden change in behaviour although possible seems unlikely!
