I can’t comment on this without knowing if you are being serious.
I'm serious. You can comment now.
I agree with most everything you say here, excerpt I have no opinion on whether or not jbr could have opened the package.
:notgood:Maybe we’re looking at more than one person; sure. After all, there are 5 unsourced DNA samples.
The so-called practice note. My second most fav piece of evidence. I tried to find the answer to your question for a very long time. It seems to come down to this: the so-called practice note is not of sufficient length to determine if it was written by the ransom note author: however, there is nothing to distinguish its author from the ransom note author. It is sandwiched between a (missing) earlier draft and the (removed) ransom note; Thomas, and, as far as I can remember, everyone associated with the investigation thinks it is the beginning of an abandoned ransom note.
Based on the above, I provisionally accept that the so-called practice note and the ransom note are connected.

IMO, if there isn't enough handwriting to identify the writer of the "practice note" as the ransom note writer, I can't assume it had anything to do with the crime. Therefore, I don't consider it evidence for RDI or IDI.
Mr Ramsey handed the note to Whitson (who went on to write an IDI book).

According to Amazon, Whitson's book got more negative reviews than positive. I haven't read the book, but many reviewers who have say Whitson states many things as fact that have since been pretty much debunked (the stun gun, to be precise).
Anyway, JR had to have a feeling the police were going to collect the notepad anyway, so he probably thought, "Why not make it look like I'm helping them?". The way the police worked that morning, however, I doubt they would've even found the notepad, let alone collected it.
ETA: Happy New Year's Eve, everyone! :newyear:artyguy:
