According to our fearless leader Tricia, only exhumation would have proven it.I apologize for how this might read and it is not directed at anyone in general but is related to sometimes how these topics seem to go.
Here is something we know about the stun gun theory:
We know that the specific stun gun model that was part of Lou Smits theory was in fact not used as a weapon on JBR. The measurements of the stun prongs of the specific weapon identified don't match the abrasions on her body. The manufacturer stated that clearly at the time this was all being developed and presented as a theory.
Not surprisingly, no one has yet produced a specific stun gun model that is actually manufactured with prongs that do match the measurements.
I guess it is theoretically possible that the perpetrator performed some after market modifications to the stun prongs before it was used which account for the different measurements so therefor we can't completely rule out the stun gun theory. Also, it is possibly likely that Lou Smit and team didn't feel the need to spend the time to research and find one that matches because that kind of precise detail wasn't necessary given the overall bunging of this within the DA's office anyway and therefor we can't rule out that there is actually one that matches.
I hope the circular nature of my comments make the point.
Thats the consensus among the reputable experts involved in the investigation; Dr. Meyer, Dr . Doberson, Dr. Deters, Lou Smit, Robert Whitson, & John Douglas. There isn't a consensus as far as what might have made the marks from the opposing side. The BPD refused to exhume the body, so I guess we'll never know for sure. Chances are the greater likelihood rests with the majority consensus including the medical examiner that conducted the autopsy.I believe it was a stun gun. I believe that makes sense with the crime.

Not exactly. Consent was not required, nor was it necessary. I don't believe LE even asked the Ramseys?...The parents would not consent to exhuming the body is my understanding.

I've just sifted thru only the first five pages of comments here and so far am somewhat amazed at the fact that nobody has yet mentioned the "O" type train track theory in Chapter 33 ("SBP and Beyond") of Kolar's book "Foreign Faction" (see photos 29 & 30).
I hope I have just overlooked it/them.
I'm stickin' with Kolar![]()
Just wondering if anyone's familiar with a picture of JB, taken quite a while before her death, of her standing in a doorway in bare feet, wearing a red and white spotty dress? Apologies for not posting a link to this photo- my computer skills are embarrassingly limited, and I wonder if anyone else knows how to do it? :blushing:
It may be completely irrelevant, but on that photo, there are little round marks visible on JB's lower legs, that look very similar (even the same?) as the marks on her body in the autopsy... I just suddenly wondered if there could be any connection? Could whatever that was done to JB to cause those marks being discussed, have been done to her quite a while before her death, too? I've no idea, but they do look a bit like possible burn marks? Sorry if this is wrong!
