Yes, akh - there is some evidence that BR had issues about others touching his food. Although it was not mentioned in the CBS program, in Kolar's book (and I believe Thomas's book as well) an incident is described during one of BR's taped interviews (I don't remember if this was the interview...

akh, I totally agree with you. As you point out, if BR was only responsible for the head wound, then it doesn't make sense to me that the parents would cover this up with such an elaborate "kidnapping by a crazed sicko gone wrong" scheme. It is much more plausible that they would have...

Yes, JohnJay - I tend to agree with you on all points! It seems much more likely to me that the cord strangulation was done by BR and then the parents had to incorporate that into the subsequent "crime scene" that they staged to point all fingers away from anyone in the home. Thanks for your...

Oh, I see -- so you think the PR "psycho" bit actually occurred much earlier -- during the night maybe? -- and before the whole staging began. Very interesting -- I think you could be on to something here JohnJay -- thanks for your great insights on this!

Things that continue to puzzle me about this case (continued): 4. Was the Strangulation Part of the Staging or Part of the Crime? I go back and forth on this one. It’s clear to me that the “garrote” was an overly elaborate and useless instrument that served no practical...

Things that continue to puzzle me about this case (continued): 3. The Blood Evidence on JBR We know a small (but visible) spot of blood was found in JBR’s underwear. We also know that JBR’s blood was found smeared on one of her thighs. But the experts in the CBS documentary...

Things that continue to puzzle me about this case (continued): 2. How Much Did JR Know on the Morning of Dec 26? When police arrived that morning, JR told them he woke up before PR – at around 5:25 a.m. He said she was still in bed when he went in the bathroom to shave/shower. So if he...

Now that the dust has settled a bit from all the recent programs about JonBenet, I’ve had some time to reflect on my theories. I still believe BR was responsible for the head blow, and I still believe the parents covered it up. But I remain conflicted about what parts of the crime were...

Speaking of Dr. Phil -- I just found this interesting tidbit on a law suit HE is facing where one of his ex-employees is suing him for "false imprisonment" and "wrongful termination." Nothing to do with his BR interview, but it sure is interesting reading -- here are links...

Maybe someone should tweet Lin Wood and ask if they can hire him to sue the Dr. Phil show for its gross negligence in failing to disclose to viewers the blatant conflict of interest presented by the McGraws and the Ramseys both being represented by HIM. LOL

Lonetraveler - I have DirectTV, and CBS On Demand has it available now for free! If your dable/TV provider has CBS On Demand, look for it there! :)

Thanks, Tortoise! These are my thoughts as well -- although I found most of the show to be extremely well done, this segment was not convincing to me and left unanswered questions that failed to jive with my understanding at least of this portion of the evidence. Perhaps there was a much longer...

I'm going through the thread now on last night's show (great posts, everyone!). I haven't gotten through all posts yet, so please excuse this if someone has already addressed this. My questions are about the whole sexual abuse thing that was covered last night, so I need some help from one of...

At the time of JonBenet’s murder, Burke was 9 years and 11 months old. He was 4 weeks shy of his 10th birthday. In 1996, the year JonBenet was killed, the FBI reported that 257 children aged 14 or younger were arrested for murder or non-negligent manslaughter in the U.S. Of those, 16 arrests...
