Or, maybe BR had already gotten the knife out of its hiding place before that night, already had it hidden in the basement, and used it to cut the cord - i.e. maybe BDI all, then PR came down later and staged with the wrist cords and mouth tape, then moved the body. Just maybe.
The knife had previously been placed "in a cupboard over the sink in that area outside of JonBenet's room", per LHP. It might or might not be relevant to the case. "Detective Kerry Yamaguchi discovered Burke's knife on a countertop near a sink just down a basement corridor from the small basement room where JonBenet's body was found."
"Hoffmann-Pugh said she didn't tell JonBenet's parents where she stowed Burke's knife."
So, maybe BR did find it some time prior?

The cops first inkling of suspicion came in the morning after JonBenets body was found in the basement room when Burke was taken to a friends house without asking a single question about why all the police were in his house - or where his sister was.
Two weeks later, Burke shocked a police psychologist by shouting: I know what happened. She was killed. Someone took her quietly and took her down in the basement. . . took a knife out . . . hit her on the head.'
At that point, only the police knew that Burkes Swiss Army knife had been found next to JonBenets body."
(Though I wouldn't call down the hall near a sink "next to JB's body".)

My bet is that the knife was tested for both fingerprints and fibers. So surely the BPD and the GJ members know the answers. All in all, this is just more info that keeps me wanting to get inside the files of the GJ.
