Has Any Ramsey Defender Ever Given an Explanation for the Pineapple?

[BBB167893]

Good? Well, it isn't the end of the world!

 

[LinasK]

Looking at any single piece of evidence in a vacuum has a highly liklihood of producing a wrong result, whether for guilt or innocence. It's also a tactic used by defense attorney's to create reasonable doubt where no doubt should exist.

Medea, I think you are so right on the nose!

 

[BBB167893]

Me too! (Walks away nervously, whistling "Don't Worry, Be Happy")

here is what i posted a couple days ago :behindbar

hmmm............

14 TRIP DeMUTH: And what I hear you saying is

15 that that's not what this is.

16 PATSY RAMSEY: No, I don't know, it doesn't

17 look like it. If I packed snacks, I would have

18 been downstairs in the kitchen somewhere --

19 TRIP DeMUTH: Okay.

20 PATSY RAMSEY: -- or, you know, but --

21 TRIP DeMUTH: Would perishable items be in

22 a Tupperware container up in JonBenet's room,

23 perishable food items?

24 PATSY RAMSEY: Not likely.

25 TRIP DeMUTH: Okay.

0539

1 PATSY RAMSEY: That's what makes me think

2 it would be more likely to be the beads or

3 something.

4 TRIP DeMUTH: Okay. So do you think that

5 that's pineapple in there?

6 PATSY RAMSEY: I don't know. It could be.

7 TRIP DeMUTH: Would you think that that

8 would be likely, or unlikely up in her room?

Duh, I have studied her interview, and didn't remember reading that, until you posted it. What did she say to that last question by Trip...line number 7 and 8? If it WAS pineapple, we would have heard about it by now..IMO And the Rams lawyer wouldn't have called it the the big bugaboo

 

[Ames]

4 TRIP DeMUTH: Okay. So do you think that

5 that's pineapple in there?

6 PATSY RAMSEY: I don't know. It could be.

What did she say after this?


7 TRIP DeMUTH: Would you think that that

8 would be likely, or unlikely up in her room?

 

[Ames]

Better yet.....

tell him a small foreign faction did it & YOU'RE innocent. lol

Yeah, I am going to start using that excuse. LOL

 

[Ames]

LOL!!!

Yeah, I heard the mystery Santa Bear was actually a prize for winning the "Boulder's Little Miss Strong Man" competition? lol

LOL..yeah, I heard that too! :crazy: Wait and see...there will be posters that think that we are for real!

 

[Ames]

Their was a tupperware container in JonBenet's room; but given that BPD was incompetent, no one knows what was in it or why it was there.

HTH

Yeah, finally something that we can agree on.

 

[Ames]

A data point: my mother has kept every single receipt she has gotten for anything since the day she stepped foot in this country in 1950 (as a legal immigrant and she was naturalised nearly 50 years ago).

When the IRS selected my parents for a random audit, she was able to show them receipts for every single deduction she took and a whole pile of "maybes" that she hadn't counted as deductions.

The audit ended up with the IRS owing my parents over $4000.

They've never been audited again but my mom is ready. <snicker>

Following her example, I keep all my receipts for everything. The IRS has never audited me but I'm ready and waiting!

My husband is a Revenue Officer with the IRS, so I should know better than anyone...its always best to be prepared. I will also say...believe it or not...I think that its funny that the IRS owed your PARENTS money...good for them for saving their receipts.

Oh yeah, the IRS doesn't go back alot of years...so your mom can throw those receipts from 1950 away...LOL I think that its only three years that they go back, but I am not sure...I will have to ask the hubby about that.

 

[Linda7NJ]

Answer: They did not find pineapple rind trimmings in the Ramsey house.

HTH

I stuff my pineapple rinds down my garbage disposal and turn it on.

She could--but they've been useful for other stuff over the years. My nieces and nephews have used them for a bunch of school reports as supporting evidence for "the way things really were" for instance. And it's kinda fun to go through all of them and see how things have changed over the years.

The amateur historian in me sees them as a terrific resource for some historian 400 years from now. The biggest problem in trying to understand how things really were in the past is that people just don't tend to write about or record the every day stuff because it's all stuff everyone knows. But then times change, no one knows those things anymore and it's a big mystery!

There are unanswered questions about even quite prominent historical people. For instance, Elizabeth I of England--what colour were her eyes? To date, no one has discovered a contemporary source that states or shows what colour her eyes were! Even though she apparently had a fascinating, compelling gaze (often remarked upon by a variety of sources). She was surrounded by people 24/7, never ever alone, one of the most important people of her time. And yet no one ever thought to write a simple declarative sentence to the effect of "Her Royal Highness's eyes are <colour>."

Recently there was a bequest to historians by a family in Maryland who had ordinary stuff including letters, receipts, account books, post cards, popular fiction, newspapers, etc, going back over 300 years. Such a treasure trove and the family thought it was just the old junk in the attic.

Besides, I know my mother--there's no way I'll ever pry those receipts out of her hands!

 

[Ames]

I stuff my pineapple rinds down my garbage disposal and turn it on.

That's what I do too...imagine that, LOL

(Its amazing what garbage disposals can dispose of! Wudge must not know what they are for.)

Well, just as long as she is saving receipts from that far back, for other purposes, other than to show the IRS. I just didn't want her to think that she had to save them for THEIR benefit....LOL

 

[LI_Mom]

Yeah, I am going to start using that excuse. LOL

If your husband doesn't buy the story..... refer him to your lawyer.... Lin Wood. lol

 

[Linda7NJ]

That's what I do too...imagine that, LOL

(Its amazing what garbage disposals can dispose of! Wudge must not know what they are for.)

I have also learned ( the hard way) what I can't stuff down there too!:crazy:

 

[Ames]

LOL That's funny!

Its good for the disposal to dispose of peelings.because it cleans the blades. Especially...orange peels...it cleans, and it makes the disposal smell good too!

 

[robotdog]

when patsy said it COULD be pineapple in the tupperware in JB room

i think at that point she was thinking "UH OH, the police might actually have the tupperware that had the pineapple in it"
i better be careful what i say


also, it seems like it would not be totally out of the question that it had happened before...

 

[robotdog]

if one were to wet paper from a practice note errr i mean practice letter
from a faucet, and then put it down a garbage disposal there would not be much left of it

flushing it down the toilet will move it out of the house but the disposal will grind it into shreads

Yep or...How many fireplaces were in the home? Burn pretty much anything, (a roll of duct tape or extra cording, etc.), in the fireplace and then flush the ashes...

5 pounds of potato peels...not a good idea!!!
