The only question remaining is which R sexually assaulted JonBenet?
.
I am in the group who believe she had multiple abusers consisting of family and several others, from family friends, possibly photographers, and maybe even other kids in her life.
If LE or by some miracle the FBI were to take a fresh look at this case and make a serious attempt at solving it, I want them to dig very deep into the abuse angle. While it may not be the actual motive for her murder that night, I do believe it played a role leading up to her murder.
I think the last few weeks of her life need to be placed under a microscope, maybe even going back to her last summer. While JAR likely didn't kill her, he needs to be near the top of their list of people to interview. Add his friends and anyone who knew him in college. There is
something there. I remember many years ago there were some comments(anyone still have this info?) from people who knew him in college who said he talked about JOnbenet a LOT. Its highly unusual for frat boys to have their six year old sister be a main topic of conversation. If there is even only a sliver of truth to those stories, he needs to be asked about it. Even if he didn't abuse her, he is showing interest for some reason. Find out why. How many of his friends went to the Ramsey home? Jonbenet was not shy. She liked giving "tours" of the house and did any of JAR's friends get this little tour? She also allowed anyone to wipe her after using the bathroom. Jonbenet was too young to realize this but she is placing herself in very high risk situations by doing that. How many guys actually wiped her?
John had the colossal gall to say Jonbenet would possibly "prearrange" secret meetings with guys and be willing to leave with them in the middle of the night. Put this statement to the test. Start grilling any guys who ever had even minimal contact with Jonbenet. It's possibly the most disturbing thing JR ever said about her and should've been looked into 20 years ago.
JAR could be entirely innocent yet brought someone into the house who may have done something. He might think he knows little yet could know information that could add a few missing pieces to the puzzle.
JAR's area of the house was a hotbed of activity that night. Why? What was in there?
There was also the bizarre accusation from that informant in Michigan who claimed JAR(or someone claiming to be him) offered him 10k to murder Jonbenet in a boating accident. BPD blew this off too quickly. Maybe the informant was unreliable but if he's so unreliable, why is he an informant in the first place?
It definitely sounds outlandish but if silencing an abuse victim was the motive for her murder, the story doesn't sound as outlandish.
To any new members here who don't know about this...

"When the Star received a tip on February 5 that John Andrew Ramsey had tried to arrange the death of his half-sister, JonBenet, they passed the information to the Boulder police.
"A sometime police informant had told the tabloid that on the weekend of either Memorial Day or July Fourth, 1996, while the Ramsey family was vacationing in Michigan, John Andrew had offered him $10,000 to ram a power boat into a smaller boat that would be carrying him and JonBenet. Supposedly, John Andrew would jump overboard to safety just before impact and JonBenet, he hoped, would be killed. The informant told the Star that he had rejected the offer.
PMPT Page 153
"Detective Jane Harmer was assigned to follow up on the tip. The informant was interviewed by police in Waterford, Michigan, where he repeated the story he'd told the tabloid. Two weeks later the Boulder police discovered that the informant had a dubious history. A check of Michigan police agencies revealed that he had come under suspicion -- first for possibly planting drugs in an alleged dope house and second for refusing to take a polygraph test to confirm information he had provided in a cocaine investigation. By the end of February, Boulder police had decided that the informant's accusations were unfounded, and yet another lead in the Ramsey case would go nowhere."

Other than JAR, Grandpa Paugh deserved a very close look. He was at the 23rd party where something happened and of course the 911 call. He flies back home almost immediately on a standby flight. Why's he in such a rush?
Many always assumed John was the abuser. It's possible of course but I lean towards others but at the same time I think he at least knew there was abuse going on. Its why I don't think she ever had a chance of going to the hospital even if that head wound is a bit less severe. IMO they both knew she was being molested and if anyone on the outside found out, the whole dysfunctional house of cards comes crashing down and they weren't going to let that happen. Too many lives, career, and money at stake to let an innocent six year old girl get in the way of that.
The moment she is bludgeoned, regardless of who did it or why, she wasn't leaving the house alive.
: why did the R's not leave JonBenet in some basement room in full view, why was she hidden away in the wine-cellar?
Other than the pageantry and having their perfect daughter on display, everything about her was a secret. Once she is dead, she was hidden in that cellar like the secret she was.
Placing her in that room was very revealing IMO.
