Other than motive, the time frame of the crime is the major difficulty in the case. PDI provides the most succinct succession of events. She kills JB, stages the WC scene and pens the RN. Obviously, she would have been occupied, to say the least. (Perhaps, this has to do with the exhausting delivery and the need to rest up contained in the RN?) Doing the laundry just may not have seemed important, given the enormity of the undertaking. Besides, PR was clever to wear last night's outfit to greet LE, as this could explain fiber transfers, once the house had been contaminated. The same with JR and his contamination of the body. Part of the staging involved the R's intentionally calling over a crowd to make sure nothing could be conclusive.
Some pieces of evidence have never been found, as best we know. Getting rid of them would have taken planning. Could PR have managed everything by herself? As discussed here previously, the messiness and errors of the staging could be due to more than one R taking part in it, with do-overs occurring during the course of the night.
If PR is covering for BR, the timeline stretches out a bit.
proust20,
A clue to the timeframe follows from when you think JonBenet died?
This timeframe is limited by the estimated time for rigor mortis to develop, approximately four hours.
With no unexpected blaching on JonBenet's body she was not apparently moved?
Would any of the Ramsey's attempted redressing JonBenet once full rigor mortis was in place?
Patsy's fibers found embedded into the ligature knotting cannot be explained away as accidental transfer.
They place Patsy with JonBenet and point to her as asphyxiating JonBenet?
Patsy did admit to washing some items that morning?
So the case could be PDI with John assisting in the latter stages suggesting revisions and removal of evidence?
The person(s) staging JonBenet in the wine-cellar knew full well it would all be revealed as bogus at a later date, as they simply replaced the forensic items back into the Paint Tote, e.g. broken paintbrush, including hiding her internal injury and bleeding with the long johns, so no mistake, simply indifference.
